Fall from Dreams

Seeing as there is little to none about converting clothes, I decided to make this tutorial. This is a simple compilation of tips and tricks I’ve learned while converting clothes for The Sims 3 to The Sims 2 – keep in mind this is the way I do it, you are free to go about this any way you want, but I hope this helps. :)

A few things that will be covered in this tutorial:

-          Converting TS3 clothing meshes to TS2

-          Add morphs

-          Adding groups to a file

Some things you will need:

-          s3pe, which can be downloaded here: http://www.den.simlogical.com/denforum/index.php?board=19.0

-          Cmar’s Meshing Toolkit: https://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=481950

-          Milkshape 1.8.5 (Note that WesH’s GEOM plug-ins: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=357403 will not work in older versions!)

-          TRWS plugins: http://www.thesimsresource.com/resources/view/category/creating-sims3-meshing/id/95/

-          Possibly Delphy’s Multi-package extractor (only if you’re working with sims3packs and not .package files)

-          Photoshop or any other advanced paint program.

The mesh I will be converting in this tutorial will be this one: the completely classic women’s suit from the fifth avenue set.
