This is an edit of the Maxis craftsman window ("Symmetric Poly-Molecular Matrix Window") that is separately recolourable on the inside and outside. Because that makes sense, unlike the EAxian "recolourable glass" fetish. The glass of this version is not recolourable anymore now as a consequence, but seriously .. who needs that?
The mesh is 98% identical to the Maxis one, I only fixed the top and bottom sides of the window pane and sash (so that the colour doesn't change in the middle of them) and made the windows counter-friendly by making the sill on the inside less pronounced (so that it disappears behind counters/stoves). If you're using MaryLou's Counter-Friendly Windows this means that mine *will* look different than hers (I did not make them match the MaryLou version because I don't like how that cuts off the sash at the bottom).
The exterior frame references the Maxis window (which means it will use all recolours you have for that), the interior unfortunately needs its own texture now (even though that's identical to the outside one) since it belongs to a new subset.
The straight version is the repository for the interior texture. It has one default colour (white) built in, four additional recolours are included below: three of the Maxis wood colours plus a dark timber colour (far left). That one is also included as a Maxis window (= exterior) recolour.
I do not take requests. If you want more/other/different windows like this, get SimPE and DIY. There are plenty of tutorials over in the Create section.
Polygon Counts:
pbox_craftsmanwindow-2sided_MESH_onetile_diagonal: 828
pbox_craftsmanwindow-2sided_MESH_onetile_straight: 828
(same as the Maxis one, in other words)
