Heyy this is a simple guide to how to make green screen backgrounds in your game and turn them into a lovely city or sunset ( this is the same tut for videos )
YOU NEED:
the sims 2 ( no ep`s required )
video edit magic ( free at http://www.deskshare.com/download_details.aspx?ID=1)
A desired background
1.open the sims 2 and enter the lot you want to have the background with
2.Hear i am makeing a room but you can use a prebuild house or anything

3.Now the hardest part of this tut :D make a sort of extention onto the side BUT!! LEAVE A SECTION OUT FOR LIGHT TO GET IN!

5.Now on your room inside if you havent already done so make it lively by adding paint and a carpet plus objects BUT! DO NOT MAKE ANY OF THE CLOURS GREEN ( or the chosen colour that the background will take from )

12. Now it should open a options tab ( if it dosent show your sims 2 picture click " swap video tricks ) and take the dropper and select the colour of your backdrop ( in my case, green )

ps. a thing to watch out for is lighting difrence as you can see int he pic below it changes the shade of green
