Default excell-exteriors-bay-window
Has anyone come across any recolours for this window set please? Have found one white one in a house download but that's it.

Thankyou 😁

I made some a few years back, but they are poor. pics here (octagonal part of the house is all excell exteriors bay windows - it's post #135 if the link doesn't work right) http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...786#post5211786

Since then, I'm remeshing them to be easier to recolor, and to work as actual bay windows where my cats and objects can sit.

I'd be glad to send them to you to try, but I won't be home with my files for another month or so. Ive searched, and these are the only ones I know of, so I' m interested also if anyone can point them out.

Easier? They are already repo'd and mapped quite well. And since you just mentioned this in another post, please pay attention to their policy. If you do update for pet usability, you cannot share.

Also, I could have sworn Michelle had done these. But I cannot find them. :\

Thankyou d4re I'd be interested in your recolours.

Interested though in why they cannot be shared if updated when they haven't been on Mts in 3 years and there's now a note saying creator hasn't been on in sometime so is now unsupported. Wouldn't that then null and void the policy?

What about the text in the creator's ***Signature & More :

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

i'd say that means feel free to do whatever you want with their creations - although I don't see how one could chuck any of it on a bonfire or mix it in a blender. But it looks like anything goes now!

@HugeLunatic - No hun I have not recoloured them and I very much doubt anyone else has either. Unfortunately the set is not repoed to the correct MASTER MESH, making it un-recolourable, unless it is fixed and uploaded.

Whenever you see a "Say Thanks" button show the creator you appreciate their work...click on it.

Yes, I have already spoken with d4re, and as I mentioned to them, when policy is clearly stated on the profile we don't generally go looking elsewhere for a contradicting policy.

All the bay window pieces are properly slaved, it's just the standard windows and porch door that are not properly linked. I did not look at the linked ground set though. Hopefully d4re's modifications make a proper amount of subsets, but in the meantime, if anyone wants a quick fix for this set, I'd be happy to properly link them.

Oh I have also been wanting the recolor to this set since they came out. Please make it so. Thank you.

So far I have found one recolour of the whole lot in a house download by Maxon http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=588061

More would be super though!

I've updated both sets of the Excell Exteriors, and since I have access I updated FifthAce's original threads so they retain all dl counts, etc. They are still only one subset because I have no desire (or time) to do anything else with this set. But it sounds as if updating this is on d4re's to-do list.

I'm *finally* on my way home. Crossed fingers - should have something usable completed within the next 3-6 weeks.

EDIT: Update - I just got home to a dead computer. When Newegg delivers, hpefully will have it back up in a few days. Therefore, ETA is being pushed back until I can access the project files I had already completed.

I still can't get my home computer running to finish the meshes, but was able to snag these off the hard drive. Nowhere near perfect (some really suck), but I do like the one where I only changed the brick panel.
