Hi, I've recently meshed a desk so it will be larger, it has drawers on both sides and the chair bit in the middle and I really like the way it looks in game. My problem is that I want the desk to occupy three squares so all of the surface can be used to place objects on, at the moment the game thinks it is a two square object and my sims walk through the end of the desk as though it weren't there. Can anyone help with this?

wouldn't it be easiest to just clone it from a 3 tile table? the manor House Dining table for instance.

"wouldn't it be easiest to just clone it from a 3 tile table? the manor House Dining table for instance."

Not for a desk. He'd have to get into slots and placement BHAVs.


I've actually found creating new tiles/footprints to be one of the easiest things to change. IF you remember all the steps.


And in a case like this, it's just a matter of cloning the unchaired side of the desk, and changing the tile placement.
