The second set of opening goodies: as requested by pinketamine at GoS, DOT's add-on sofa and chair slaved to the Maxis Satinistics loveseat for textures.

Since this is way overdue, by way of consolation I have also rustled up 18 recolours of DOT's texture using Aelia's Photoshop actions. These are recolours of the Maxis loveseat, but by the magic that is the repository technique, will also apply to the modifed sofa and chair too, as will any other recolours of the Maxis loveseat that you happen to already have kicking around in your game.

Speaking of which, can I also recommend Ja's fabulous recolours, which I believe were the inspiration for the original request (hence the name of my set is also a small homage to the name of Ja's set, as well as being a tongue-in-cheek song title reference, as usual).








There is one teeny issue with the sofa to tell you about: textures with a non-symmetrical pattern (such as one or two of Ja's) might not work terribly well on the sofa, due to the way it is mapped, and I'm afraid I couldn't do anything about this. Plain and symmetrical textures however, look just fine and dandy. And all textures work perfectly with the chair.

Also, these have different file names and GUIDs to DOT's original versions, and so won't overwrite them - you can have both in your game at once if you want, but you will need to find and delete DOT's files from your downloads folder if you don't.

CREDITS:

Full credit to DOT for the original mesh and texture, and to
aelia for the colours; I just did what I like best, and mashed them together in Photoshop and SimPE. :)

And thanks to
pinketamine, for the splendid idea.
