Thank you so much

I don't know where you got that info but I am guessing the official site or some other place where people don't have a clue what they are talking about. The mesh tool is for use by creators making NEW 3d meshes.

If you want new meshes for in your game you download them. Browse to our download area, find genetics meshes and you will find a hair section.

Being new to this site and this mesh stuff, 99% of what you all are saying is a foreign language to me. I can't even download the original program that this thread is for. I always get the message:

Wud I do? Is it me? ARGH

I'm currently working on a skin that I want to upload, but it has an annoying raised area where a halter necklace thing used to be. So I downloaded SimPE and MTS2 and I know that I need a 3D program. Could someone give me the link to where I can get MilkShape? Thanks.

How do you create objects, cause a simmaster on the sims2 said to go here. Can you help me? :bump: :dmille:

Ok. I am new to all of this meshing stuff so can someone please help me? I would be very thankful if someone would please send me a easy tutorial on how to import meshs into the game. If you have an easy one that I can understand please send it to :

[email protected]

so, the ONLY advantage to using smd files is that you can have multiple bones assigned to a vertice? i can see how thatd help, but id like to be able to also edit the fat/prego body types. will this be poosible soon you think?

i got that error when i import and obj file
could u help me ?
i do the mesh with 3dstudio and then i've imported it in Wing3D and then exported in obj format...

i wanna mesh tooo >(

SimPE to Run the meshing toold? cant u just use paint or somethin?????

Actually i replace directly the obj file in SimPE without creating a new .package file probably that is one of my error ^^

Okay, I'm confused. I can't find the .obj files to use so that I can mod them. Help. Please. :confused:

Do u have to pay for it?

I used milkshape to create this mesh but I can't figure out how to export it. Could someone help me finish the job. I've included a before and after- the after is in milkshape format.

Yes me too. I can't find these files. Were are they??

I've been following the new mesh tutorial but using my own object..like an endtable and I cloned the CORNERSTONE "Sentinel" endtable. It has only one material , so I made my endtable in wings3D
only 1 combined material.

Any way in Meshtool I keep getting to the part where you choose materials in model then choose view GMDC.... I get this error

Can someone help me on this or has this happened to anybody else? :confused:

Hi Angel!
I think you can solve that problem by deleting the texture from the .obj file and resaving it. At least I think that's how it works with Milkshape.

are you talking about deleting the texture file in SimPE? The gmdc file?

Oops! No not in SimPE. I use Milkshape and it seems if I don't delete all the materials before I export the .obj file I get that error in the mesh tool.

Oh ok, thanks....I don't use Milkshape I use wings3D. I combine the materials before I export.

This is my first attempt in trying to make objects.I have been studying Mod_V's tutorial over at MTS2 but I'm waiting on part 3. So I'm stuck as to what to do. So I've tried to work with the Mesh Tool and I'm getting this crazy error. I open the 3dfile I made in wings plus I open the GMDC file( 5gd mesh) then edit groups and pick materials in which I named the material. I check view GMDC and that error comes up. :weep:

Hmm.. I wish I could help.

Awe, That's ok.....I'm being very patient. In the mean time I'm tidying up my site with new navigation.

Yeah, I checked it out (I looked at the link you gave Greg); I love the way it looks.
