Ive been playing the sims since forever, way back to simcity and the sims flight.....but only up until recently have i been using custom content, and id love to create stuff for everybody along with myself, but non o' the links for the transmo thingy, will allow me(firefox) to load em....my comp seems to only have trouble with the sites themselves not the links..

right now this is seemingly way too much trouble just to create a few things....so please help me out, i need info on where to download the transmogriffer or W/E and any info you can give me on a way to use two lots as one, or possibly extend a lot into previously unuseable space allowing the ability to build and such.........

If you can do this for me, expect very interesting objects, and fully furnished homes in the future!

Unfortunately, the newer version of Transmogrifier can only be downloaded from its home site. You can however find the previous version at Gamespot.com and Download.com

As for the lot issue...
You cannot combine two lots into one. Each lot is a stand alone. You cannot alter the overall dimensions of a lot, but you can use either the move_objects cheat to build on the out of bounds areas or the map_edit cheat to make out of bounds tiles playable. You can however rename larger sized lots to any lot location. It will look odd in the neighborhood view, but if you don't mind that's another option for you.

There are also 2 large lots, 00 and 11, that are not used by the game. You can rename those to the particular lot you want them on, but you will have to add the necessary portals in order for it to function properly. You can find instructions on that in this thread . The Bunker Sims portal table that is mentioned can be found here: http://games.groups....sBunkerArchive/ . Look for e-bunker-pedportalfixer .

Hullo; I want to create a new door. How do I do that?

This is just a basic overview of what you'll need to do. First, you'll need the program Sims Trangsmogrifier . That will allow you to "clone" a door that you would like to use as your base object, and then allow you to export the "sprites" for that object so you can edit the graphics to make the new door. Then you'll need an image editing program (Photoshop, PaintShop Pro, GIMP, just to name a few) to make the new graphics. After that is done, you'll need to use Transmogrifier again to Import the new graphics so you can have your new door.

If you haven't done any object editing/recoloring/creating before, you'll definitely want to study some tutorials to help you learn what you'll need to do. You can find some great tutorials at: http://sas.planetthe...sost/bwsost.htm
