6. Create Your Own Objects
==========================
   One of my favorite things about this game is you can create your own 
objects, wall, floors, roofs, skins, and pictures.  The greatest thing 
about it, is you can create your own objects very easily.  Below is a 
complete description of how to create your own objects.  These guides 
are a complete walk-through, they should just get you started.

--------------------------
6.1 Objects
--------------------------
   This is probably the best thing that you can create.  You can create 
an object that you can possibly imagine.  There are two programs that 
you can use to create the objects.  Transmogrifier is the first program 
that you can use.  (Download it at: 
http://www.lushcreations.com/TransmogrifierDocumentation.htm).  The 
second program that can be downloaded it Blue Print.  Blueprint is 
similar to Transmogrifier, it is still a work in progress but it looks 
great.  (Download it at 
http://www.simfreaks.com/blueprint/software.html).  Both sites have 
complete instructions on how to make objects.  The Transmogrifier site 
has a great Tutorial, that i suggest you use to make your first object.  
Once you make your first object, making new objects is simple.

--------------------------
6.2 Skins
--------------------------
   Ever wanted to have a specific skin for a story?  Ever wanted to 
create a famous celebrity?  You can!
   In windows explorer, look in the director that you installed The 
Sims (Default is C:\Program Files\Maxis\The Sims) then go to \GameData 
then to \Skins  (The default path is: C:\Program Files\Maxis\The 
Sims\GameData\Skins).  The names are sorted by the following codes:

Gender        M=Male              F=Female
Age           A=Adult             C=Child
Size          Fit=Average Size    Skn=Skinny    Fat=The Largest
Skin Color    lgt=Light           drk=Dark      med=Medium

Example: B001MAFitlgt_Romeo
         The skin is Male, Adult, Fit, Light

   If there is a particular skin that you want to change, find it, 
double-click it, and paint will open up.  Do what ever changes that you 
want to the skin.  Then choose SAVE AS under file.  Save it as a new 
name in the same file as you open it from.  When you load up the game, 
and create a family, the new skin should be in the right place.

--------------------------
6.3 Roofs
--------------------------
   Making a roof is similar to how you made the skin.
1.   Open up Windows Explorer
2.   Go to C:\Program Files\Maxis\The Sims\GameData\Roofs (or what ever 
file you saved it in.
3.   Open one of the files (For example, r1_)
4.   In paint change the colors to what ever you please.
5.   Then go to SAVE AS under file.
6.   Save it in the same directory as the other roofs.
7.   Title it r5_ or r6_ or then nest number.
8.   When you go to build mode in The Sims, then roofs, the new file 
will be there.

--------------------------
6.4 Floors/Walls
--------------------------
   To make Floors or Walls download Home Crafter from www.thesims.com.  
It is in the "Get Cool Stuff" and then under "Make Cool Stuff."  There 
are instructions on how to make objects in the download.

--------------------------
6.5 Pictures
--------------------------
   To make pictures download The Sims Art Studio from www.thesims.com.  
Then go to "Get Cool Stuff", and then to "Make Cool Stuff."  
Instructions on how to make pictures are in the download.
