oh, well. if EA says, it's free, then it's free, ain't it? no matter, if some jerks on TSR or elsewhere think, they could make profit with stuff, that was offered by EA for sims fans for free purposes. I was just reffering to that one post by zelda101, where she states her problem with some stuff, which she requested by some creator on TSR. she wants to use this stuff for her project here, but is not sure, if it would be alright to offer it here on MTS, 'cause that one mentioned creator on TSR made it a subscribers only download.

really, if it were me, I wouldn't give a damn about if it's subscribers only or not. but then again, she would have to upload it on another site, I guess, for MTS's rules don't allow that, eh? there are plenty of such sites, though.

anyway, whichever option she chooses, I'll just wait patiently for this great project to be finished, so I can get it and enjoy it. :3

When people spend time making something that takes a lot of time and is their own personal work I think it's up to them deciding what to do with it. Taking credit or redistributing other people's work without crediting is not fair. If I download a movie and add an extra scene is still not my work. And also if I make a file in photoshop (psd files) it's not Adobe who owns the right to my work, even though they have untroduced the file type. If people think this way it will end up with people not wanting to create anymore. I do not pay for stuff myself though, but I don't redistribute other people's work. I rather find a free site.

certainly, I agree with you. crediting the work is definitly important, and the creator deserves this.



well, in that case you have to read the legal requirements (or whatever it's called). I'm not sure what is written in adobe's contract conditions about that. BUT the psd format is their property. JPEG, PNG, GIF (and so on) on the other hand is not. and no one publicates or sells their work as a PSD file, but as JPEG or some of the other common formats. of course, because you can use PSD only with photoshop, and no other software. there we go, it's the same, as with the sims3pack and packages case. if you safe your work as a file/format, which no party claims as their property, you can do with that, whatever you please. though I don't think, adobe prohibited photoshop users to operate free with their PSD format.
EA on the other hand did. as far as I know, they say that in their EULA. just read the damn thing, and you will know. XD I'm just a german first year law student, so how do I know? XD

oh, and if you find any mistakes... well, finders keepers.

Regardless of thoughts on pay content vs piracy and how EA and others interpret the EULA, MTS has a policy against pay content. You are not allowed to upload something with pay content in it, regardless of if you can pirate it elsewhere. The origin of the creation is all that matters. You may feel otherwise personally, but MTS upholds that policy. Unfortunately, that means that any TSR Featured Artist creations, even if it is free right now, is not permitted in uploads. Anything that is a pay item or comes from a pay artist is off limits here.

Someone suggested that the OP ask the creator for permission to include the lamps in their upload here, for free. That would be the best solution.

Any further posts should be suggestions and feedback on the (beautiful!) lot, not debates about the rights and wrongs of pay content and its redistribution.

Talk to DOT. She might not be aware of the policy at MTS.

yes. that's why I suggested to upload the finished project somewhere else, not here on MTS. :D

Just ask her permission for MTS2(it is already TSRAA so i dont think she will refuse.)

Wow, I can't believe I haven't played the game in almost two months..

I'll get back on working on the game soon, look out for updates!

Did you manage to fix the problems with the funnels?

Could you please upload the glass dome and the grand clock used by you to recreate the 1st Class Grand Staircase?

OH MY GOD!!! Please give me a download of the custom content of the Titanic, It's so beautiful and i want this in my game! PLEASE!!!

Hi !

Well I really like what you've done !!!
You should make available a beta for everyone !!!

I'm back! And I worked on it today, I've been pretty busy lately.

But I added lights to the front of the ship. This isn't gonna be available for all the lots because of the 6 story limit the game has.
I also shrunk the front of the ship, it was way longer than necessary.

But here's the update.

Nooo, I'm unable to add funnels.

It sucks because I'm on the highest floor and I can't add walls to create any. And I've looked all over for anything similar to funnels, and well there's nothing. If someone can help with that that'd be awesome.

This is GRAND in every sense of the word! Absolutely stunning. You've really done well with the furnishings and finding the right CC to use (must have spent ages on that alone). And as someone else mentioned way back, the colours are really lovely too.

Ps. The ambience of it lit up at night is eerie and yet beautiful. It almost makes me a little sad (happy sad )

I was playing around on photoshop after playing the game today and I imagined what the ship could look like when done.. With a little bit of movie magic I went from this..


To this.


I honestly didn't change much from the game!

It's such a shame that you can't place Sims 3 lots right next to each other. How are you planning to bridge the gap between lots, if at all?

Hmmm, not sure. I don't even know if it is possible to walk lot to lot using a bridge.
I usually just teleport across. lol.

I began working on the stern today!

wow its just amazing !!

Oh... my....

If only EA could add curved wall feature into Sims 3... then your Titanic would've been perfect.

You should still look into using these as funnels

Ive used several free items from TSR in my uploads and havent run into any trouble

I thought about those too! The fact is that those towers are ok for castles and mansions but I don't think they'd fit on a boat.
They're rather small (1x1 if I'm not mistaken) so you would need to pile up a few, and they have those peepholes.
They would look too skinny and weird, and piling would be impossible since they said they already reached the 5th floor building limit.

You are right! and thanks for the tip, but that is too small for this ship.
I'm not trying to be picky but the funnels have to be huge to match up with the ship.. 1x1 is going to be tiny if you think how big the lots are. They should be the size of the dome basically, around 8x8..

Staking is possible for items though, I can just use those OMSP
