Title: Human Props in L.E
Post by: VeTram on January 17, 2011, 01:08:55 AM
-Something i wanted to ask a long time ago .............i need people-props ( standing , walking , sitting , etc etc ) ...i know there are many of them in Maxis data files , and in some custom content ( for example SG Mega props vol1) ....but i wonder is there any way to make a list for every category , in order to find easily whatever person/s i want to use?....i think something like that is missing...
.. that would make Lotterer's work easier.... :)

Hi VeTram! Do you have the SC4PIM Link (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2260), Clip2Pic Link (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1462) and an image editor? If so, you can run all your prop and texture files through the PIM and take a screen shot of everything in the pack like this.

(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi810.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz25%2FDellaH44%2FProppage.jpg&hash=5af31b10845920a481d2ce378f335aafed699891)

I purposely made this image very small, but I assure you, the full-size photos are quite large enough to see easily. It's a little extra work, but IMO time well spent, especially for "occasional" LOTters like me. :)

Hope this helps...
Joan

You're welcome, VeTram. I used the SC4PIM because I was one of the beta testers, and I was trying to see what it could do. :) I will post your question to one or two associate teammates and see if I can get some help for you from them.

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but the Maxis people props can be found under the name "aper" and "amill" if my memory serves me correctly.

I contacted one of my associate teammates and he said...

Quote...he wants a list of what packs contain sim props.  While that would be nice, it doesn't currently exist, and what you have done is close to the best option.

Considering your interest in this subject, you might want to create such a list yourself and share it with the community. I don't know that you could distribute the photos - that's the reason I downsized the one I used as an illustration. But you could probably distribute a list of what each prop pack contains. Also, I believe there's some software called "Poser" with which you can create your own Sims.

I don't know of any prop packs which contain Sims other than the ones you mentioned, but if you find any, you might want to start a list.

Good luck on your quest... :)
