This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Expansion pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below the description for more information.
I have always hated that in order to have a certain look on the outside of a house the indoor decor had to coordinate with the window color. For example, if you wanted a house with white siding and blue windows, every room in the house had to be decorated to work with that window color. I made some window trim sized to match four of the Maxis windows. Now you can have an outside decor that is independant from the inside. For example, you could have white siding, white windows, and blue window trim so that the inside need only match the white windows.
Breeze Easy Window:
This is the basic double hung window from the Base game.
Function of Plate Window:
This is the plain tall windows from the Base game.
Showcase Window:
This is the display window from the Base game.
Privacy Window:
This is the little privacy window from the Base game.
The Breeze Easy Window Trim is the Master Mesh! You must have this object installed for the others to function! This is also the object you must recolor in order to recolor any of the others.
These objects were made with the following programs: SimPE Wings 3D
UV Mapper
Photoshop
The Diagonal Meshes are linked to the Straight Meshes, meaning that the trim will automatically turn when placed on a diagonal wall. They are compatible with all games.
They can be found under Function Sort > Decorative > Miscellaneous, and Room Sort > Outdoor > Decorative.
