Who knows? Maxis often "borrows" ideas from our mods; they could restore this feature in Seasons, it would be nice

I think it depends on your computer wether you can put let's say 200000 downloads on it or only 500. But I don't think this one mod will change anything really. I've got 11394 and it doesn't really change anything. I mean sure, your game gets much slower but I'm accepting that for more cool stuff. I mean sure, a hack is probably the reason for the dicepeerance (sp?!) of my Sims' food but anyway. I'm talking too much. Hope I could help and nobody answered the question while I was tiping. :D

Thanks for upgrading these windows, they look so great in homes.
I so wish to see your Sonic Shower and Toddlers Blanket Bed again. I lost all my downloads and came back to get them and they were gone, I was SAD.
Thanks again for your great creative work.

Try clean installer. And check poly counts. Lots with to many high-count objects can seriously slow or crash the game.

Great mod! Many thanks Numenor for keeping it updated and Atavera thank you for this creation. I was very sorry to hear you had given up creating for the Sims. You will be greatly missed.

I have often wondered why the windows didn't open and shut, this is great work. Now all we need is for the sims to be doing this themselves. With our direction or autonomously. And to let he rain in would be more realistic as well as sims getting cold.
A big hug for all your hard work in making sims more real. thanks.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.

I have found that the sims are opening all the windows without my direction.
Big thank you Numenor for updating this.

Yes, it works with seasons; but there are no new "openable" windows: you still have to use the modified ones from the base games.

Though you would think that the new windows would open and close - they look like they should.

No, it's not just a matter of exterior look: only few windows from the base game were built with a separated moving panel; then Maxis abandoned the project, and all the newer windows are made in a single piece.

Kinda moronic how "Maxis" abandoned the project when it seems all you folks have been able to figure things out... Most times you guys are better than "Maxis"/EA...

I don't get why so many Simmers hate Marsha Bruenig. She actually grows up to be quite pretty if you allow her to.
