New page

==Step 6: Create the TS3 Clone==

Pick a base game item that is similar in function to the item you want to make so that your clone will have most of the same behaviors as the item you want to create. i.e., clone plants for plants, dressers for dressers, beds for beds, couches for couches, etc.

Some items didn't come with the base game so you need to specify which EP is required for your object to appear and function in game.

'''Note:''' TS3 outdoor plants lack the texture material and '''''VPXY''''' items so you can't use them for conversions. Use the '''PlantIvyBallTopiary''' for plant conversions.

 
[[File:s3oc-naming.jpg|thumb|alt=Alt text|s30c naming]]

* Open '''So3c''', (Sims 3 Object Cloner.)
* Click '''Cloning'''
* Select '''Normal Objects''' from the drop down menu
* Select '''PlantIvyBallTopiary'''
* Click the '''Clone or Fix''' button.

The defaults for this project, (outdoor plant), won't be correct for your new object so there are several options that need to be changed.

:1. Give it a unique name which also credits the original TS2 mesh maker - I've used ''porkypine_TS3-conversion-of-Macarossi-DragonTree'' for my file name - It tells my username, the username of the original TS2 creator and the name of the object.
:2. Change the ''catalog name'' to your descriptive Mesh name
:3. Change the ''catalog description'' to something which tells who your are and where you got the original mesh.
:4. Change the ''price''.

* Click the '''''Details''''' tab - Do you want to make is repossessible? If so, Check the box.
 
[[File:room-flags.jpg|thumb|alt=Alt text|room flags]]
* Click the '''Room Flags''' - Uncheck everything except Outside
 
[[File:build-flags.jpg|thumb|alt=Alt text|build flags]]
* This mesh is not using anything found under '''Function Flags''' so remove every check mark.
* Under '''Build Flags''', Select '''Tree'''
 
[[File:Misc-flags.jpg|thumb|alt=Alt text|misc. flags]]
* Under '''Misc Flags''' select '''IsFlora''' only

 
[[File:save-clone.jpg|thumb|alt=Alt text|save clone]]
* Save your cloned package:
:1: Click the ''Start'' button
:2: Give the package the same name as the Unique name
:3: Navigate to your TS3 mesh folder
:4: Click the ''Save'' button - wait for it to finish the package.
