Finally! I've been doing this for more or less 15 hours! LOL  I wanted to make a towel wrap for ladies...I remember having that in Sims 2. IT IS SO HARD FOR A NOOB LIKE MEEEH! hahaha!  15 hours of trial and error!  Sometimes you think it's good enough because it looks good in the previews (both in Studio 4 and in the game's CAS mode ) but in the actual game you'll be surprised how different it looks! Anyway...I cloned this towel wrap from the Ruched Party dress (but it is also for everyday use)  This was the result of my last attempt before I finally achieved the correct look: LOL SO WRONG ON ALL LEVELS!!  (The others before this image below were a lot worse!  )  I have been going in circles for hours and I was almost giving up but then I decided I'd change the drawing for the last time (yes I practically drew that towel wrap, the shadings and the details, I also used a towel pattern and some cute brushes for the design ). I realized the drawing has to be sharp and vivid in order for it to appear "alive" in the game.  HERE IS THE FINAL OUTCOME:  DOWNLOAD HERE: Towel Wrap for female |

IT IS SO HARD FOR A NOOB LIKE MEEEH! hahaha! 15 hours of trial and error! Wait till you try meshing furniture. Sims 4 Studio doesn't have that option yet, but I really wanted to make my own pieces. So I got TSR Workshop, which is very confusing and keeps crashing, and relies on yet another buggy piece of software, Milkshape 3D, which crashed 5 times in the first 10 minutes after I downloaded it. Not to mention those programs are really incompatible with my favorite 3D modeling program. It's easy to make nice 3D models, but to get them to work in game is a whole other story... It took me hours to actually make a working package for the game (that is, something that doesn't crash the game), but the object I made was invisible, because I haven't figured out where to put my texture yet, it only shows on a thumbnail. So, it's not just you going through hours of trial and error :P I can't wait till Sims 4 Studio has this feature, it is so easy to work with, those other programs are so confusing, and I haven't found any helpful tutorials. S4S on the other hand, has a ton of helpful threads on this forum for every feature so far. I think I'm gonna make some carpets today, so I don't get discouraged with the hard stuff. :P |

maya, that towel came out looking amazing and it's such a cute idea. I love the wicker furniture you've made too! paika, Studio is getting very close to having something good enough to release in beta for object meshing. I've already started working on the first tutorial showing how to use the new feature. |

Thank you, orangemittens, for the great news :D
Now if only EA worked half as hard on the expansions as the S4S team :P

So here are some screen shots from the replica of my childhood home which i am currently building in my Sims 4 game. You can see the pieces of furnitures I recolored (I'm not very happy with the bed I made though  it looks weird so i made another one haha, I might make another improved version of the bed later on...or not : )  (Replica) The Crack House. Because it suffered many cracks after the big earthquake which hit Philippines and devastated Baguio city in 1990 (Nope it wasn't located in Baguio City :D ) . This replicas are from my memories of the house before then.   what a coincidence! the lot I've chosen in Sims also have a creek in the backyard!  Our Living Room  our diningroom/kitchen  Mom's bedroom  My Bedroom  Top View Interior  DOWNLOAD wicker lampshade, wicker love seat, single bed, rattan book shelf |
