Guidelines for Sims 2 Recolors
Have you made new colour options for objects, Maxis or custom? This guide will walk you through every step of what we require on MTS2. Please make sure you read these guidelines carefully, as our standards have changed over the years, and there may be some items you weren't aware of before.

Information
Title & Description |
---|
Give your upload a descriptive title and write a text description for your upload, describing what you're uploading. Your title and description must be in English or provide an English translation. If you are not a native English speaker, using Google Translate is okay. You can also ask for help writing your description in the Creator Feedback Forum. |
Name of Object |
---|
Please state which object you have recolored. |
Custom Mesh |
---|
If your creation uses a custom mesh, then please provide a link for off site meshes. |
Expansion Packs or Stuff Packs required? |
---|
Particular items may be added with expansion or stuff packs, and depending on how your creation is made and the item you based it on, your creation may not work for users who do not own that expansion/stuff pack. You need to be sure of which packs are necessary for the items you have made. If users don't have the EP, your stuff may not work! If you are unsure of whether or not your creation will require an expansion or stuff pack, you can ask about it in the appropriate Create forum (under the Create menu on MTS) before uploading.
Make sure you only mark the EPs/SPs required that your upload actually needs! Don't just mark them all! For specifics, please read: MTS2:Creator_Guidelines/Compatibility |

---|---|---|
Take some nice big (600 pixels or more on the smallest side is a good size to aim for), clear pictures of your recolors. Your pictures should be taken in-game and should show the quality requirements are met.
|
Files
Zip, Rar, or 7z |
---|
To upload your file(s) to MTS, you will need to compress them into an archive file, which makes them smaller and allows you to include many files in one download. The archive file formats we currently accept are .zip, .rar, and .7z.
For instructions on compressing your files into an archive, please see: Creator Guidelines: Creating Archive Files.
|
File Types |
---|
Upload your recolors as package files and give them a descriptive name so downloaders can tell which ones are which (very important for large sets) . |
Other
Uploads not allowed on MTS | ||||

These items are not allowed on MTS in any category.
