Hey there everyone, I bought this model from a good site for $12 US. The reason why it's so cheap, because it doesn't include pre-set UV Map! :( I had to spend over 3-5 hours to do it myself with Blender and I finally got it working in The Sims 4!  It's set as a refrigerator but the interaction menu is still intact. Is there a way I can remove all and put one as "View". In the future, I might make the Soda Fountain functional if someone would like me to help this functional. Also as you noticed, the ice shoot texture is suppose to be transparent with glass. Is there a way I can make it as a glass?  |

An easy way to do that would be to insert the mesh into an item that already has the 'view' interaction, as well as a glass component. You'll have to separate your mesh into the non-glass and glass parts, and replace them into the corresponding parts of the original mesh so the cut numbers stay consistent. Hopefully that makes some sense |

Thank you Spirashun and @stevenssimsstuff The coca-cola soda fountain is set as Refrigerator object but I noticed in the Microwave have more Mesh details than the refrigerator. i.e Dropshoadows, Phong, PhongAlpha and FullBright. As I noticed the microwave has a transparent texture and it's separate with a s4studio mesh in blender.  In Blender, how can I create a new sims4studio mesh and make the ice dispenser in glass. I am really sorry.. I know how to mesh, except glass I haven't learned yet! xD  |

 Just an idea for You....This Picture has 2 Mesh Goups 1 is Glass. It would be Easier, MUCH EASIER, for you. It's not my Project, just a thought.  So you wanted me to import the coca cola machine object in a picture frame which includes two textures, and simply use extract tuning, set it as a refrigerator and it should run properly. EDIT: Sorry, I didn't see you post above! xD Usually I do not double post! xD ===================================== UPDATE: So, you want me to export the ice dispenser as obj and try to make it as a glass mesh. Damn, I still learning! xD I have to know how to make the ice disposer as a glass and import it back to the coca-cola machine to pick up a new mesh. I might need a little collaboration (help) to make the ice dispenser as a glass (Rough week back at University!) If you feel like to help me @stevenssimsstuff ! I would be much appreciated and your username will be credited to my work! I'll email you the ice dispenser and see if you could possibly make it as a glass. Hmm... The Sims 4 Dine Out now have variety of soft-drinks, I hope it's possible to put all the varieties in the soda fountain machine! xD haha |

1.) You could Delete Everything from the Mesh except the parts that you want to be, "Glass". Export to an .OBJ file 2.) Backtrack in Blender and do the Opposite, Delete the Glass parts that you already Exported in the previous OBJ. file and Save the remaining mesh parts to a 2nd .OBJ file. (This would be the Picture/Frame part of the Mesh on a Swap-Out.). 3.) Now, you can Import the seperate .OBJ Mesh files into blender and do the extra Baking/etc. for your Texture, RLES files - Change the Mesh names to match the Pictures' and the Cuts; etc., etc.;. °Changing the Tuning to a Fridge? That's way out of my Ballpark...i don't even think you could do that...ha! (What do i know?).  I use Dropbox for files, if you don't have a place to Link your Files - Dropbox is good. §If you need Help, just Message me with the Link, then, you can Delete the Message Post. Usually, i can get most things done on the Weekends...my Job takes up most of my energy, during the Week...where i come Home and just want to enjoy a Beer...do my' own thing. § Cool? Cool. -Rock On! *P.S. - I am not some Blender Guru, or even a Top Modder....i just have strange ideas and make wierd things, sometimes. Ha! Mister S. - OM - Brujah - Andrew...God, there are so many people that i Look up to, here, can't begin to list them all. I have learned something/s from them all and the Credit would be that You learn something too - then, pass it on. That looks pretty simple but I will follow your instructions. I have dropbox so I can send some files to you. I'll PM you my message and there's no rush to finish it! |

Hi again, Ansett4Sims...got your PM. Dropbox or a Link to a File in a PM is the only Route i go. - i don't share my E-mail address, sorry. Best of Luck with your Project, maybe someone else can/will join you on finishing it. Okay.. I'll send you link of the file to download. When you are finished, upload the file and send me the link to download! How's that.. So you do not have to send me your email address. Just to let you know, I've been doing competition giveaways for nearly a year and I do not keep someone's email. I delete them! Anyway, I will let you know when it's done! |

I finally managed to do it myself! The ice dispenser mesh is now set to glass and now I have to fix the interaction menu. Yes emuzazas it will be available for download when I have everything set to go! Now I have to manage how to make the front sign light up except other meshes. xD   |

This is a very last help request. Is there way to place the Soda Machine on the counter without using bb.moveobjects cheat? |

From what I have unterstood, you cloned your object from a picture frame? You will probably have to change the settings in the object catalog which make it stick to the wall in this case (which you can find under "placement flags") and either give it a decoslotsize or check the "requires slot" box. Small kitchen applicances (such as microwaves) seem to use the latter option. I hope that works out for you.

The object is kinda big on the counter but I will try to manage to level the object up and try to make it level on the counter. Same as the microwave do not allow to be on the ground. |

It's set as a refrigerator but the interaction menu is still intact. Is there a way I can remove all and put one as "View". In the future, I might make the Soda Fountain functional if someone would like me to help this functional.
