Default Titanic - WIP *Grand Staircase Completed 12/12/18*
Grand Staircase



December 12th 2018

Hi everyone! This month I started to work on recreating RMS Titanic in The Sims 2. I will first build all interiors needed for the movie and then the exterior of the ship. I will try to post updates once a week. This is a free time consuming process and I'm trying to make it as accurate as possible so it may take a while! All comments and suggestions are welcome!

I started with first class grand staircase and here are pics how it looks at the moment!

D Deck



C Deck



B Deck



A Deck



Boat Deck



That's all for now!

This seems like a lot of work and a very CC heavy project. Be sure to check out the other Sims Titanics which are out there, that might help if you're confronted with a complicated part, and may contribute to a CC-free solution.

If you remember me, I'm awesome!

Thanks for your advice! I have a plenty of useful objects already, planning to do just some recoloring, but these iconic pieces I'm trying to make as accurate as possible. Also cloning objects from game itself such as columns and furniture and modifying them a bit will hopefully speed up the process!

I'm pleased with progress I managed to make this week: new wrought iron fence which I actually made fully 3d, but it was unfortunately far too complex for Milkshape to handle so I made it 2d png based, 5 new columns after having constant problem of getting "not responding" message from Milkshape and 12 different textures for flooring based on OFB EP (I think).

Updated A Deck with new columns and iron fence.



Updated Boat Deck also with new columns and iron fencing.



New linoleum flooring. The old one had just sentimental value, was made in paint!



Decorative wall column which was finished yesterday and will be used on 6 decks, from E up to Boat Deck.



That's all!

This looks fantastic! You should check out Titantic: Honour & Glory, as far as I know it's a free download, you get to explore the ship as they made it in 3D, and it's very detailed, perfect for what you're doing as a reference in 3D.

Thanks! I heard about the game and it's a pure perfection! I'm using as a reference various photos of Titanic's sister ship Olympic as well as online deck plans, but I will sure have in mind all new discoveries that Honour & Glory team discovered with their experts and try to apply them in previously wrong realized design.
