Blast from the Past

Well sorry to all Goslings for borrowing the title but it seemed to really fit this conglomerate of files.
Most of the meshes are pretty old gifts to Simbella's forum/PVP, some are from BBSims and the recolours were made for/inspired by SIMply Change It 3, so they look a bit vintage too.
As a bonus you'll get some YingYang inspired recolours for Echos Rug.
All of the meshes are included for 2 reasons:
1) Because I didn't want to send you on a scavenger hunt and I think some aren't availiable anymore.
2) I edited most of them. Some got remapped, some had holes fixed, some got faces removed that you won't miss at all, etc. See below for details.
Collections included.
A little warning: I think all of these meshes have high poly counts between 1500 and 5000 faces per tile.

Since I made these while I was sick, then took some time to finish the set and after my pc crashed have yet to reinstall Sims this set is not as orderly as usual. Use the ingame delete function to get rid of the colours you don't want.

Colour & Texture Swatchs:





Note: Not all meshes come with all options.

BB Sims Shelves



These actually were lowpoly, had multiple slots, wall shleves were repositoried.
I fixed them for M&G Quartertile Placement
and enabled the small wall shelfs to shift up and down if you have AL.

B43 Barcelona Chair & Chaise



Probably the best version of this classic piece of furniture you can find for Sims.
Completely remapped the seat, works fine now with textures and small patterns.
Split into 2 sub-sets > frame + cushion.
Fixed a hole in the meshes, fixed backwards faces.
Slaved the chaise to the chair.

Echo Real Rug

Nothing to fix with this one.
Forgot to take a pic of these but you can see them here

IJD Bella Advent gifts 2005



Nuked around 800 faces on the endtable you'll never miss...still around 4000 faces though.
Fixed maps for both to avoid fractal weirdness when using envcube shinyness.
Fixed all backward faces on the diningtable.
Fixed for M&G.

IJD Bella Waffle Gift 16



Made set repositoried (sofa is the master).
This comes with many faces you will probably never see, so I might rework this in the future...or If someone else feels like it I would be very happy. :D

IJD Waffle Gift 17 &  Bella Tulip Chair



Slaved chaise to lounge chair.
Fixed mapping on lounge chair > texture is now the same size on all three cushions, more seamless.
Lounge chair is a bit lower in polycount than before.
Fixed Tulip Chair for M&G & fixed shadow.

Murano Egg Chair



nothing to fix :blum3:
recolours use Murano's original texture

I use UV Mapper Pro lots of time and fiddeling to fix maps, as you can immediately check the results.
Which chair do you mean, can you send me the file or a link to it? I'll see what I can do the week after next, when I have internet again.

Thank you Chrisa for my avi & siggi!

You can get the file(eames lounge chair) in the booty. It is from wall sims, bresil set.

I had a look at the chair the other day in game. I think this one requires a lot of work (haven't looked at the mesh yet). The invisible parts bother me so I would try to fix that and I think that will take some time. I'll get back to you when I have something.

Thank you Chrisa for my avi & siggi!
