I often these two windows, I would have suggested that I made, but I have to remove "all open and close all windows" with this release, and my SIMS opens & Closes independently a single window.

Sorry, but I don't understand: are you suggesting a modification, or reporting a bug or... ? You don't like the Open/Close All interaction?

Thanks Numenor for keeping this updated.

I have used the hack with M&G and so far have encoutered no problems whatsoever. I have also used this to add an openable window to a set I am working on currently.

I am wondering though, how much of a headache would it be, to alter the animations so that instead of the z-axis being animated, and it opening upwards, the x/y-axis could be animated so that they swing open outwards?

PS: I have no idea on how to create/edit/alter animations, I have always steered clear of that particular headache

I know this is naughty of me, but if anyone fancies creating a clone of the Midnight Ride window, so that the pane swings outward, I would be eternally grateful, and will of course credit them when I finish the set I am working on (Oh, I would need them to open to the left and the right )

Slap me now if you like mods

My Sims 2 creations are no longer supported. Regardless of what the individual post says, feel free to clone, recolour, chuck on a bonfire or mix in a blender! Just credit me/this site with the upload, and upload here only, thanks

as always you're a genuine ''modfather'' i only hope that someone would take up the job of ''animating'' some of the great custom windows here ;D GREAT JOB.

Treat all people the exact same way that you yourself deserves to be treated; you're less likely to make enemies that way.

Hope it won't make me have to re-buy every window in my game... I hope no. Nonetheless, awesome!

This was a nice idea but as soon as my sims opened the windows he couldn't use his refrigerator anymore and none of my sims can eat and will all a starve now.

I don't know if Numenor still checks this thread but if you do I must report that the two holiday pack windows won't open. It works fine for the other windows but when I click on the holiday frost windows the open/close window option doesn't show up. I have all EPs and SPs including happy holiday stuff which I just installed the other day and I have had the updated version of the mod for quite a while now. please help!

Thanks for keeping this mode available.

A question though:
Is it possible to open these windows without moving a sim in?

Nice, but I do not know if there is something to do with what you've downloaded the file in any program or just download it and put in the downloads folder and it goes in the game normally. Please advise! I am desperate :-(
I do not have to do is to translate and understand properly. Because I am from the Czech Republic.

Put it on the download folder

Start the game, click on your window and tada! It works!

I'm not sure if this is looked at anymore, but I've noticed that with this installed, it randomly opens all the windows in my sims' houses without me clicking the command. It's highly annoying, as I'll be taking pictures and all the windows will just open without me having done anything.
Around October of last year, my computer's HDD failed and I had to get a new one which wiped my game clean. Before that, I had been using this hack with no difficulty. I can't seem to figure out why it is doing this in my game *now*. It used to work perfectly, and I think I was using the same version.
