I'm supposed to be writing an essay but I just had to get these out before continuing. For the sake of snooze time and all that.
I have a woeful lack of windows and doors in my game, so here are some retextures of Windkeeper's Tokyo windows/doors for the frame and uh... screen parts. The frames and screens are in different files, so you can mix and match and delete colours you don't like without messing up another.

In-game previews:









NOTE: I included my small edit of the master file (wind_tokyowindow_2tile_main.package) and Windkeeper's own glass recolour (wind_tokyowindow_screen_glass.package) to get rid of that la vie en bleu effect (you know, the blueish hue Maxis windows often have). This is picked up by all the other windows and doors slaved to it. Okay yeah, it still looks a bit plastic, so don't hesitate to poke me if you manage to get better results.

The meshes are not included, but you can get them HERE (tokyowindowssuperset.zip) Let my edits of her files overwrite the original files.

And here are some pictures that were also made in essay time that I already spammed about over at GoS. It's the favourite spot of some fairy guy to scare the piss out of travellers.

♫ Two Steps From Hell - Merchant Prince
Epic trailer music! That just about sums it up.

Besides mucking around in TS2, one of the things I waste my time with is geofiction (worldbuilding, as the word suggests). So when the GoS Sim Challenge came along I thought it would be fun to do something different from the usual urban doom and gloom and went the fantasy route, inspired by all the gorgeous CC by Helena, Ran et al. Fun times, fun times.

My heartfelt thanks to all CC creators; my game wouldn't be half as pretty and fun without you!

♫ Caroline Lufkin - Sunrise

IT'S 1337-O'CLOCK 8D and I come bearing stuff. Rather simple stuff, but I like simple things.
I love this retexture by Madizzo/Stajl of a Maxis mesh. Sexyfeet default replacements mean creepy shoe deformities are abound however, so I slapped flats on the base game nightgown, added some bits here and there and recoloured the result in a few shades, some of them intentionally tacky to get that 60s/retro/Twiggy feel (yeah what, I've been looking at old sewing patterns all day). And there you go.

The mesh parts and shoe textures are derived from EAxis stuff, but all the credit for the original dress textures goes to Madizzo. All files have been compressed and they should have correct shoe sounds.

Oh, and I had way, waaay too much fun making my entry for Nymphy's contest *hintenterhint*, so I'm going to be a bugger and post it here too.

ETA - I added a CC list to the bottom.

Now I'm off to finish MF. I'm stuck on the last page.

♫ Nujabes - Voice of Autumn
That's the oh-so-pretty music I was listening to while decorating that room.
