Updated the file so the diagonal window glass can now be changed, once the diagonal window is placed. Thanks and hug to HugeLunatic for her help.
Numenor first uploaded the 'Maxis "Lost & Found" Large Loft Window from CAS' back in 2006. With a lot of encouragement from my dear friend HeartDeco, I cloned it from and slaved it to the Base Game 'High-Tech Loft Window', also added a diagonal window, light now comes through the window as well. I've always liked this window but wasn't happy with the fact I couldn't recolour it.
As a bonus I also included Clear, Frosted, Bronze, Smokey & Rose recolours of the High-Tech Loft Window GLASS. If you're interested you can find AL Wood Recolours of the 'High-Tech Loft Window' included in the uploads HERE & HERE.
Now the annoying bit: Once you place the diagonal window you can not change the glass colour, you have to replace the window.
Found: Build Mode > Doors & Windows > Single Story Windows. Price: §275.
Custom Content used in my screenshots: Olive Tree Converted by TheNinthWave & Recolourable Breadfruit Tree by HeartDeco & Michelle.
Files have been compressed and checked in game.
Polygon Counts:
Straight Window- 1068
Diagonal Window - 1068
Additional Credits: SimPE - CEP - GIMP - The Compressorizer - EA Games and MTS.
Numenor for all the work he has done over the years.
HeartDeco for her help, encouragement and belief that I could do it.

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
