Ah! Sorry, I've misunderstood -
Once you have completed this tutorial, open the package of your new table and replace the texture with another one.

Read about replacing textures in this tutorial (read the Step 3).

I don't get the option texture image in the recource tree, and I think it's not the way I want to do it because if I do it like that tutorial I can't stipulate( ) the places for my colors.

I thougt I had to made a texture in a program (in most tutorials they use photoshop pro I thougt but I want to get a free one(and which I can use the best???). And then you had to import that texture as an UV's or something like that in UV mapper and than I could stipulate my colors in UV mapper on the right places.

Lineeeeh, be aware that in the Tool menu there are *two* Object Workshop: the normal one (keyboard shortcut CTRL+W) and the "windowed" one, that is obsolete and should not be used.

If you *have* selected the right one, and you don't see any option, be sure that the drop-down menu on the top showd "clone" and not "recolour".

If these suggestions don't work, please post a screenshot.

If the Order in your GMDC tab (on the same page where the Export button is) is set to XYZ, try changing it to XZY and then export again.

Clothes can't be done in Wings, because Wings doesn't manage the joints (required for the clothings to work in game). The only option that I know of, is Milkshape and its built-in "Unimesh" plugin.

Right, I've done everything up to step 19 correctly (I hope...), but there's nothing in the bottom window of SimPE when I try to move on. That shouldn't be! Should it?

It's the work forder where you are going to save your new end table (the actual package will be saved there in step #11).

I think that Mod_BV has swapped the two phases (cloning the object and creating the mesh), and forgot to edit the step #7.

First of all: at the bottom right side if your postings there is an "Edit" button - next to "Quote" - so you don't have to fill threads with posts only on your own
Edit: imagine, they even added a "Delete" button to get rid of double postings... they must have been in a generous mood when adding buttons... :D

I guess you shoud start here, a useful link collection... SimPE is the program you need to prepare your packages, it is able to read the file structure of Maxis' Sims2 file formats. Take a look at the FAQ and the forum on the SimPE site for further info.

Yes, I am serious though I'm not serious at all. I'm serious about this!
Even the joker can be deadly serious...

Default Help With Tut????? (PLEASE HELP)
I would first off like to say thank u for this tut and to everyone involved in the process. BUT, (sorry theres a BUT) I have some major problems. PART 2 is suppose to be easier but its confusing. I have no idea what I have done wrong. I think I am a very capable person and able to follow simple instructions but not with this. When I get to Step23 and when told to import mesh file using wings 3d my screen shows different than yours. Your Screen shot only shows (material2 and materials) in the Geometry Graph. But on my screen I have (materials, cube1, cube1) I know that I i then supposed to rename cube1 to say materials 2.....But I have another Cube1, do I suppose to have this? Do I delete it or leave It? My brother says to delete it but even then the object doesn't show in game, (atleast with mine i just had an oversize cube) Can you or Anyone else help Me? Maybe a need a TUT 4 DUMMIES

KeeKee - The "cube1" should have been remaned to "materials" in step 15. Probably you have selected by mistake the menu "Duplicate" instead of "Rename", and therefore you now have two meshes "cube1" instead of one mesh named "materials".

TimSimser - The "parsing problem" usually happens if you try to import in SimPE an OBJ file created by Wings. You must load the OBJ in UVmapper, save it and then load it in SimPE.

Timsimser, please zip the OBJ file that gives error and post it here, please; I will take a look.

But before doing that, please open the OBJ file with the Notepad (it's a text file) and read the first line: it should be: "# file generated by UVMapper"
