Custom Content: Cars?

[navidadia]

So I am soooo bored with the base game's cars, including the collectors addition and the prius....is there a way to make custom cars?

[Antagonist.01]

Yes, there is. The procedure is identical to the one to create every custom buy object. I think you know yet that there was, in fact, many cars for TS2.

I think that to create a new object you just need a mesh whit animation and all this sorts of thing required to get not shit of animations or a flashing blue ride, the Experimental Object Cloner, the knowledge to assign a new mesh to the object, and the STBL editor to change in-game lines of text about the object.

I was rather thinking another thing: whit sligthy modifications to animations and placement scripts, and custom sounds, you can put a motorcycle whit real functioning manual gearbox for The Sims 3. Hope to be able to get my badass sim a Buell someday. xD

Are there any already made custom cars out there to be downloaded?

The biggest problem is to get a mesh exported from a program like MilkShape or similar programs that are used by meshers. The program that produces resources readable in the game costs about 12,000 $ and more. Who is able to spend so much money for modding? So you'll have to wait and be patient until a tool is available that offers mesh exporting for these cheap programs or those that are free.

If I ever get the time, I'd *****LOVE***** to make one of a 3rd gen Camaro.
