Test in game

L1. Copy+Paste the package file you created into your ../mods/packages/ folder

L2. Make sure to exit out of s3pe and s3oc, if you still have those running.

L3. Launch the game and TEST!

  1. Testing in buy/build catalog list:
    • name and description appear as entered in s3pe
    • correct price
    • thumbnails generated by game



  2. EllaMeshTutorial 230.jpg

    • Test out different pattern categories on clone and original object – should appear identical in terms of orientation and pixelation (i.e. no stretch)



  3. Testing custom thumbnails



  4. Testing shadows – indoors and outdoors
