Title: Rugs for your nurseries and kid rooms
Post by: Gwenke on February 01, 2010, 11:46:48 PM
I started making kid-themed recolours for Nengi's rugs (http://simscrossing.net/index.php?topic=154.0), then quickly decided that I would never use them if I had to find them amid the plethora of recolours I already have.
So with Nengi's kind permission and HugeLunatic's awesome and patient help, I cloned Nengi's original rug and HugeLunatic's slaves (http://sims2artists.sublimesims.net/smf/index.php?topic=2060.0) to create a mesh set just for kids.  
Thank you both for making it possible.
The meshes:

The first set of 24 recolours, all shown on the same 3x4 mesh:

Please do tell me if you find some of them somewhat blurred in game. Most of them are made with a smaller texture (256x256) to make the files smaller. I could make them with the larger textures as well if needed, though. Recolours are also compressorized.
Download meshes and all recolours HERE (http://www.box.net/shared/nqag4yoyig).
Since the recolours include two textures of the TheFunSpot rug from Nightlife, here is a bonus hider for that. Also, a hider for the Planetoid Explorer rug from Pets. I did not do this one because I did not like it enough.

I think the pink donkey is my favourite, but the monkey ones come pretty close, too. What about you?

These are great!!! But... um... well, could I get a copy of your first version? I'd rather wade through recolors than pages of meshes. (sorry  :blush)

And I like the Rockets and the Fishies the best - but I gotta say, that's one cute little monkey!

Sorry, I did not keep the original versions (and there were just a few).
I also hate the pages of useless meshes (since you can't use EA rugs off-grid anyway), that's why I' making the Maxis-match recolours and the hiders. So far I'm through with the round rugs and the kid rugs. I plan to do the square ones as well, so the number of meshes left in the catalogue will actually be quite few.
That said, after I finish my kid rugs, I can upload the original .PNGs if you want. Right now it's hard to separate what's already done and what's not.

Well... OK. I haven't got back over to the rugs section yet - I'm about to do curtains (again!!!) Sheesh!

I remember you helped me figure out how to Texture-reference/Hide-excess-fuglies over at MTS2, and I did a few of the rugs myself. I just found and DnLd'd your other set from here which I'm happily going to use (b/c I think it is more thorough than what I did  :blush) Hmmm...

...All this rambling to say: These look great - I'll take them as they are. And, hopefully, when I get to the rugs everything will look spiffy! I'm getting tired of all this arranging/rearranging I'm doing. I'll do my rugs your way - THANK YOU!!! And I'll go back to organizing my pictures by size order... LOL. :crazy

Thank you very much for all these little tweaks you provide for my Simmies.

This is one of those really clever object sets that make personalizing kid's rooms wonderful.  :thx

Well said, Steph!
I am delighted with the wonderful variety and the huge improvement over the Maxis rugs. Thank you, Gwenke!
