I have always liked the loft window that came with the base game and having a wall height version have always been on my mind. Started this some months ago and have been on and off due to real life matters.
Castron windows is a collection of just two windows both with diagonals. A full single tile and full double tile window ideal for both modern and contemporary buildings.
Both the single and double tile each have a diagonal version.
SUBSET AND RECOLORS
The set comes with six recolors and combined with the default color makes it seven.
There are 2 re-colorable parts-the window frame and the glass
Three zip files are included named according to the package file present in it.
NOTE
The zip file named Castron Master Mesh contains the 1 tile window and its diagonal. The AP Castron Single Window-Master.package in this zip is the master mesh and all others are slaved to it and so must be present in your downloads folder for all the others to show up.
LOCATION
The windows are located in the build mode under doors and windows and each with its diagonal costs §120
Polygon Counts:
1 tile Master-1196---makes it 596 poly per tile on each side
1 tile diagonal- 1436---makes it 718 poly per tile on each side
2 Tile straight-1916---makes it 479 per tile on each side
2 Tile diagonal-2396---makes it 594 per tile on each side
I know the 2 tile version is a bit high on poly count, but then the maxis main single has 524 poly per north and south side. So as indicated by poly count per tile on each side, I do believe this is within the limit.
Additional Credits:
A special thanks to MaryLou for her enhanced window template which I used.
Programs used includes
SimPe, Milkshape, photoshope and Paint.net

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
