Default Thread Updated!

NEWS AND UPDATES
---------------------------------------------------------

28 OCT 2006 - UPDATED: GLOBAL MOD
This new version of the Global Mod extends to the Maxis counters a feature already existing in our custom counters: the large appliances installed under the counters will not show the metal sides.

The new Global Mod will hide the metal sides of the large appliances even if you mount them under Maxis counters.
Only exception: the Maxis dishwasher, when mounted under a Maxis counter, will show the back panel (not the sides).

On the other hands, our custom trash compactor and custom dishwasher will fit perfectly under any Maxis or custom counter, even without the Global Mod.

Please note that the Global Mod is optional, it is not needed for the CounterCulture custom set to work. The purpose of the Global Mod is to make the Maxis counters look better, and more consistent with our custom counters.
If you need to contact us, PM directly to "Numenor" or "MaryLou".

06 NOV 2006 - UPDATED: "StripedWood" Recolours. Both the Horizontal and the Vertical "StripedWood" recolours have an improved texture that give a more natural look to your CounterCulture counters and Islands. Also, the "dirty" texture has been fixed in both recolours.
The updated recolours are included in the file "CounterCultureSet_Recolors.rar", downloadable from Post #1

I know this seems like a stupid question, but can I include this in lots I build and upload? Or are there going to be future updates? Just asking.

You can include these counters in your uploaded lots at these conditions:
1) The lot must be uploaded to a 100% free site (no Exchange!)
2) Credits to MaryLou and Numenor must be granted in the lot description
3) A link to this thread must be provided

As for the future updates, who knows? They are not planned for the near future, anyway.
I've finally started my Journal. Information only, no questions.

Yes, you can actually place the counters on the lot, not only the pictures. But be sure to meet all the required conditions when posting the lot, as stated in the main post and recalled by Numenor, above.
If you need to contact us, PM directly to "Numenor" or "MaryLou".

I just used the Q-Xpress thing to download and install all files.. and now I realize maybe i shouldn't have done that.. Will that install the files that don't go into the downloads folder in the right place?

don't worry, the only file that doesn't go into the Downloads was NOT downloaded by the Q-Xpress (you see? there is no "Red Q" near that file).

But this means that you have to download and install it manually (anyway, it's just the "collection" file, i.e. no strictly required).

Perhaps when you have downloaded the archives were corrupt.
Tray to re-download them. They work fine for me.

The counters with trims are the Maxis ones: you don't need a custom counter for that; you can easily mix our "no trim" counters and the Maxis "with trim" counters, using the multi-junction (that has a selectable trim)

The Sun recolor doesn't work correctly. It only appears on the trash compactor & dishwasher, the other item except maxis counters don't have the sun recolor, but when I click the sun recolor (top & bottom) on maxis counter, nothing happened, the color doesn't change.

I can't reproduce your problem. In may game the Sun recolors works fine with all the items, Maxis and ours.
Look at the screenshot.
I can only think that you, perhaps, have forgot to donwload the recolor of the counters......
There are 3 different Sun Recolor:
- MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_TrashCompactor_Sun.package ( recolor for the trash)
- MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_Dishwasher-Sun.package (recolor for the dishwahser)
- MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_Counter_Sun.package
This is the recolor for all the counters and the islands ( Maxis and ours) and all the other items.
This recolour is into the archive
CounterCultureSet_Recolors.rar that you can find at top post.

Okay, I already downloaded the file. But now I have another question.

You said that are 3 recolor files:
MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_TrashCompactor_Sun.package ( recolor for the trash)
- MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_Dishwasher-Sun.package (recolor for the dishwahser)
MaryLou-Numenor_CCulture_Recolor_Counter_Sun.package

I only got one file for counter recolor. Where are the other two files for the trashcompactor and the dishwasher?

The recolor work now. New problem, the trashcompactor and the dishwasher are not buyable in community lot, except in Wholesale Mode. They are not even there, like I don't have the objects in download folder. The other trashcompactor and dishwasher from Modular Kitchen Set (Chez Moi and WayColinary) are okay.
