Title: Holy Simoly Simply Elegant Curtains Expansion Set
Post by: BlueSoup on March 02, 2009, 06:37:35 am
I asked my friend Amber (http://ambular.djssims.com/) to make me some curtains based on the Holy Simoly curtains that I love so much, and she did it awesomely and amazingly, and said I could share these with you all :)

So after waiting and waiting (and waiting) without any word from Holy Simoly, we decided to finally just share them, and permission be damned :P  I would recommend to redownload (it's included) the new double-tile version with the diagonal mesh from Holy Simoly, since Amber's meshes still pick up those recolours, and NOT download their one-tile mesh, since they're not a repository object of the double-tile, and the one in this file, originally made by SunniSims, was made to be a repository object by Amber.  If Amber updates her curtains to pick up the rod recolour subsets (recently made), then I'll update the post here :)

There are several different versions, all slaved and diagonally-meshed to the original 2-tile mesh:

• Slightly lowered, so they work for the lowered Apartment Life ceilings (AL not required), single and double-tile
• Quite lower, for shorter windows, single and double-tile
• Slightly lowered short curtains, single and double-tile
• Quite lower, for shorter windows, single and double-tile.

I hope you like them, Amber's the one to thank for these!

EDIT MAY 7: HugeLunatic of Sims2Artists has updated these curtains to pull both subsets of the new Holy Simoly curtains version, and so I've removed the links to download Ambular's original version, which were based on HS' old curtains.  Please download those instead.  Thanks to both Amber and Lunie for their work on these curtains for me :)

I was disappointed with Holy Simoly's version, because the one tile doesn't pick up the two-tile re-colors, but you guys fixed it. Yay!!

These came first. :)

Oh, sorry Bluesoup, I meant the original versions. The ones from the donation pack.  :-[ ;)
I downloaded the recolors from Annosims after I got these, but they only show up on one of the 2-tile meshes. Did I do something wrong? I got rid of all my original meshes and only kept the ones from this thread.

I second the question! Are the curtains really slave files and the CurtainsMain the master file?


Title: Re: Holy Simoly Simply Elegant Curtains Expansion Set
Post by: BlueSoup on April 06, 2009, 06:12:18 pm
All of the curtains are slaved to the original main curtains from HS - they even work on the new curtains (not the rod though, only the fabric).  I have no idea why they wouldn't be working - I have tons and tons and recolours of mine for these curtains and they all work.

Weird! I have Bosie's and HS' recolours and they work only for the master file.

Hmmm I have HS' recolours and they work fine, though they're not placed in the catalog in the same order as the rest.  I think I'll work on fixing these up and re-release them.
