Hello everyone ! I hope you're all fine :)
Today i'm here because i have some questions, and i'd like to know if you might have some answers ^^

Well... I'm planning to make a new movie with The Sims 2 and i'm going to put all my strength and capabilities to make an awesome movie ! I'm planning to mod almost everything, making every possible custom animations, accessories, hair, outfits, and all...
But i'm here because of ONE thing. I tried to extract the water (You know, when you enter into the jacuzzi, the water starts to be animated. I'm talking about this water.) But the thing is that i still have the "hole" that the jacuzzi creates when you place it on the ground ! So my question is : It is possible to have ONLY the water (Which will be animated when i'll ask a sim to go into it) ?

P.S. : I did not tried to extract the water from the OTHER jacuzzi, but i'm not sure it will end the same as this jacuzzi...

Here is a pic so you could see what i'm talking about (Yes i scaled it) :

Okay, now i got something. I tried with the other jacuzzi, now the hole is gone, but i still have these bubbles... XD
Any way to get rid of them ?

Thanks !

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, I think that's an effect, but I'm not sure. You could edit out the BHAVs which handle the effect. But since this is just for a movie and not for distribution, I would say that a quick fix might be to look in the Text Lists for the effect name and just rename its value to a nonexistent effect. I don't think this would cause any problems....at least, it never has for me.

Thanks for replying ! I tried to change the Text Lists, without success.. x)
So then i searched in the BHAVs, but can't find anything related to the bubbles...
And the fact is that i would also like to be able to make my sims walk through this object ! Is it possible ? Then how ? (I know it's a matter of putting things in the BHAVs but i don't know exactly how, because this is a Jaccuzi, so it has a lot of things in here...) Or then, how to edit the tiles affected to the object ? (For example, here, the object takes 4 tiles. Is it possible to edit that and make it only taking one tile ? So then i could place it on the "Walk Through block")
