I've been slowly converting Sims 3 items for Sims 4 and tried to convert my first door. I followed the tutorials here and the door looks great, but when the sims use it it stretches in a weird way. I think there's perhaps an issue with the weights but as I'm teaching myself as I go along I don't know how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks eta: I know the medium/low & med/low shadow meshes are not the right ones yet. I will fix them once the high meshes are ready. Door package

This is 100% a weight problem. I just looked at the mesh in blender, exported from the package, and the door weights are mixed up. The weights for each door panel sort of "bleed" onto each other near the middle where the two meet so the edges of the door panels are being animated in the opposite direction to where they should be. The red areas in the picture below will all move together so you can see how some bits should be red that aren't and other bits need the red paint removing. You will need to do this for each bone (bind_doorSwing_E_, bind_doorSwing_W_, transformBone) on each mesh group. You will likely need to seperate the mesh into more groups as you work on it to be able to paint the vertices of the two seperate doors that touch in the middle.

Thanks menaceman!
I honestly don't know how this happened as I went through it all to make sure everything was weighted properly.
I must not have saved the changes [eyeroll]

menaceman44 If I break each door group into separate door frame/left door/right door groups and weight them individually, will the weights stay correct if I then join them back into one group?

They should do. They did when I tested it.
