Hello everybody!
I found this tutorial on youtube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYS0TD_VD-Y
and I have some questions!
1)How the creator of the video can connect the vertex?
I know how to create vertex but I don't know how to connect them!
2)Can I use this method to create accessories?
3)Can I use this method to create parts of a clothing mesh or a whole clothing mesh?
Sorry for all those questions but I really wanna learn how to create meshes!
Thanks in advance!
BSGirl!

1) with this (http://modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=227858) but it is a plug-in made by a mts member so unless the person in the tutorial sims, they wouldn't know about it.
2) and 3) sure why not. accessories are harder to make as a whole but easier (in most cases) to rig. clothing is exactly the opposite. easier to make but a pain to rig all the new parts.

making a mesh from scratch means you have to rig the entire mesh by hand and that takes absurd amounts of time if you make clothing. "Frankensteining" is the most efficient way to make sims. meaning you make AS FEW AS POSSIBLE parts from scratch, or none at all.

my suggestion to you is go here (http://modthesims.info/forumdisplay.php?f=505) and get damn near every-one of those and then go here (http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Tutorials:Body_Shop_Meshing_Tutorials) for a good helping of tutorials from all the fantastic people at MTS.

If you have not done this before, with all due respect, this will confuse you; this will frustrate you; this will make you want to quit; and this will eat so much time. but when it clicks and you finally understand it, this will make you happy. this will make playing the sims 2 so much better; that, i can guarantee .
