Dining Room Table & Chair Set

Its been a while since I last uploaded anything. My game decided to start giving me issues, and no matter what I done I couldn't get it working again. So after giving up for a while, I ended up completely uninstalling and reinstalling. I'm still in the process of adding everything back to my game. But while I'm doing that as I add new things I built a new tester house. For that test home I decided I wanted a particular dining room table & chair set. While I found the style of table & chair I wanted, couldn't find it in black which is what I wanted. So I recolored the set, except, it came out darker then I intended. Its more "goth" then "modern". But none-the-less I thought perhaps someone might like to use it.

The table & chair I recolored is from Phoenix Phaerie's Tuscan Kitchen Set. I am a big fan of Phoenix Phaerie's creations. I didn't recolor the entire set, just the table & chair. You'll need to download her meshes for my recolors to work in your game. You can get them HERE. If you want a black Tuscan Kitchen Set, DimSim78 has a black recolor - its a lighter shade of black then my table & chair recolor however. Once I recolor the table & chair again to get it just the right shade of black, I'll share that too.

Please forgive the quality of these images, I didn't reinstall the camera mods, so these photos maybe a little less then fantastic.

Dining Room Mix & Match Recolors

Was working on a new house recently, and when I got to furnishing the dining room, I couldn't decide on one particular set, I liked a little from one set, a little from another. So I recolored what I needed from each set to make them all match up nicely.

The first set I started with was the Marazan Dining Room Set by Reflex Sims. I love using this set, because the tables easily connect without the use of the boolprop cheat to make a larger table. I recolored the whole set black - including the table glass to give it a solid wood look - however I felt the table came out a bit too dark, which is why I also recolored Reflex Sims Ferro Dining Room Set (i'll get to that in a minute). But I liked how the chairs came out - the cushions are black and the framing is silver. So for my particular use, the chairs were perfect for the head & foot of the table. In the download I did include both the chair & table recolor. Just remember to pop over to Reflex Sims to download the Marazan Dining Room Meshes (category downloads/dining rooms/page 1).

Download Marazan Black Recolor

As I mentioned above I wasn't satisfied with the Marazan table results, so I recolored the Ferro Set - another Reflex Sims Set I use often in my Sims 2 dining rooms. This recolor has a grayish/black appearance, which I liked much better - it can easily fit into multiple style categories - goth, modern, contemporary (maybe???). The pieces I recolored include the table, chandelier, chair, & sideboard. Again, you'll need to download Reflex Sim's Ferro Dining Room meshes (category downloads/dining rooms/page 2). In my pictures I put multiple tables together & the Marazan Chairs are centered on the head and foot of the table - to do this, i used the cheats move_objects on and boolprop snapobjectstogrid false.

Download Ferro Gray/Black Recolor

The last part of this set is a sideboard and a hutch/display cabinet. I love Eliza-37Sims Emile Set, and so I recolored her sideboard & display cabinet black for this purpose. You will need to download her Meshes for my recolors to work, you can download them from here: Emile Dining Room.

~ Voodoo ~ Dining Room

The next part of the Voodoo Set is the Dining Room. Currently its the last completed portion of this enormous set. I am currently in the middle of working on more decorative items for the set, but I have plans for a library and some additional rooms.

For the Voodoo Dining Room, I recolored Vita Sim's Victorian Dining Room Set. You will need to download Vita Sim's meshes for my set to work in your game. You can either get it directly from their website or from Paysites Must Be Destroyed.

Included in set: dining table, arm chair, dining chair, bar, bar stools, bar stuff(cabinet), candle, chandelier, buffet(china cabinet), curtains, side board, buffet & end table.

Note: To make an ultra long time the way I have in the photos, use cheat codes move_objects on & boolprop snapobjectstogrid false and carefully move them together until they appear even on all sides.

Throwback Thursday

Sharing an older set I shared in the Sims 2 Fanatics Community Yahoo Group a while back - my recolor of Teko's Ambiant Bar Set. You'll need to download Teko's Mesh from Reflex Sim's Website. You'll find Teko's bar listed in Specials page 4 (very bottom).

Much and More....

My last update was 2 1/2 weeks ago, I had originally planned to share with you completed objects to start the Game of Thrones: Lannister Theme, but life got in the way, and when that wasn't a problem, I was just too plain lazy to test and take pictures of everything. Yesterday I finally got around to all that, plus several (well, more like a lot more items, considering I made 19+ walls last night)additional items. All of which I tested, photographed, zipped and am ready to share with you all today. So without further babbling from me, here's the pictures, and download links for everything:

New Medieval Bedding & Curtain Textures:
Sometimes you need variety, so here's six new textures for your beds & curtains. The curtains are recolors of Hugelunatic's Puddle Curtain Set you can get the mesh at Sims 2 Artist's forum here: http://sims2artists.com/index.php?topic=1674.0 You'll also need to drop by Sassy Sims site and pick up her meshes for the double and single tile version of Hugelunatic's Puddle Curtain: http://sassysims2.blogspot.com/2012/11/shaundak21-presents-single-and-double.html

Download the Lannister banners here: https://app.box.com/s/yfyrrbx9ssyehxrso4e8

Of course, if you got the banners, you also need a War Shield, right? Credits To Lama of The Medieval Smithy. You will need her mesh of the War Shield for the Shield to work in your game.. You can download it here: http://themedievalsmithysims2.blogspot.de/search/label/Decoration?updated-max=2012-10-04T00:51:00%2B02:00&max-results=20&start=15&by-date=false Its part of the Set "Turner" Part II.

A few weeks ago I made a paneled wall and floor and named it "bruised wood" - this really wasn't meant to be a part of the Lannister theme, but I really liked the texture, and when working on getting snap shots of some of the other items I made last night, I realized I needed a few "kitchenie" variations of this paneled set. So I played around till I came up with a half paneled wall, half wall paper - one became two, two became 3, and before I knew it, I made 19 variations of this Medieval paneling + a few of them that have parts A & B. And I'm still not quite done with this set - I have another variation in mind, which I hadn't quite finished yet, so those I'll share with you another time. For now:

In the pictures above you can also see some of the other newbie items. One of those items is a portrait of "The Seven" - that is the Seven Gods/Goddesses or "New Gods/Goddesses" of the Seven Kingdoms. This painting is a recolor of the Rainy Day Painting (I am pretty sure its base game)

Download it here: https://app.box.com/s/y5a0g1t9b9mf85hkveup

You can also see from the above images a dining room table, chairs and sideboard. The table and sideboard are recolors of Reflex Sims Marazan Dining Room Set - you can get the meshes from page 2 of Reflex Dining Rooms at http://www.reflexsims.de/index2.html and download my recolors here: https://app.box.com/s/khfj2qylsnamx8dpgs1d The Marazan set is a fairly modern set, but I love the table from this set, your able to take several tables and put them together easily to make 1 great big table out of them, and with a little wooden texture, it gives it a more "medieval" look.

And the chairs are recolors of Sim-Ages Medieval Dining Room Chairs. Sim Ages Site has closed down, so I included the mesh files in the RAR file for your convenience. Below is an additional pictures of the chairs in my textures - you may note that these are some of the same textures I used for the bedding and curtains. Download here: https://app.box.com/s/4z0bfj0wsbm6fuov5hqd

And there's still more....

Round rugs and a great big portrait of the queen! The rugs are recolors of the day dream rug(freetime) and Cersei's portrait is a recolor of the "Fourth Element" painting (basebame).
