This set came about because I wanted a fitting window for my Nook Living Room set. (Find it HERE). I needed a window that was a full tile wide and just above coffee table height, and the Maxis basegame ‘Function of Plate Glass’ window would fit that if it was modified a bit.
From there it developed into a Maxis add-on set of 8 windows and 2 doors, and this is what they look like:
More precisely there are
* 3 single windows – all a full tile wide and therefore perfect for sunrooms, in-door gardens etc. One of them is the window for the Nook Living set and must be downloaded in a separate file (For those who only want the window for the nook and not the others).
* 3 double windows – one of which is full width
* 2 special windows – there are two of each in the picture below, so you can see how they line up.
* 2 doors
All of them have diagonal versions. They match the original ‘Function of Plate Glass’ window and take their textures from it. That means they also use all the recolors you have of this window.
To complete the collection you can go and download Leesester’s counter-height version of the original window. You can find it in this thread.
To make it all easier to find I made a collection file that also includes Leesester’s window.
All windows are priced at 111 simoleons – in the catalogue just after the original which is priced at 110. Doors are priced at 146.
Polygon Counts:
Single and double windows – 148
Special twin – 296
Special stack of 4 – 592
Door, solid – 480
Door, glass – 360

Terms of use
Feel free to do pretty much anything with my stuff. This includes using my meshes and textures for your own creations. I only ask 3 things:
1) That none of my files are used as pay or donation items or as part of pay or donation items. This also includes recolors and clones of my meshes. Anything that has anything of mine in it, really.
2) If you upload any of my files to your own or another site, or use textures or meshes for your own creations, please credit Moune999 as the original creator. The same goes for recolors or clones of my meshes.
3) If you make your own slightly altered version of any of my meshes, please replace the GUID in the package and give the file a new name. Otherwise your package will overwrite mine, and I won't be happy about that.
