I love these! Quick question- are they weatherproof? So if I replace an entire wall with these will my game see the room as 'outside'? Thanks!

As far as the game is concerned, they are windows, nothing more. They just happen to stick out a bit more

They need to be placed 'in' a wall, just as any other window does

Same with the door, the game will treat it as a door, needing to be placed 'in' a wall. So yes, they are weather-proof, both &

Edit: I am in the process of updating the set so that they use the repository system, to make it simple to recolour them, I am having some problems with the wallmask's however...

You should be able to keep the wall masks with the meshes, while making the stuff that is actual textures use the repository method.

Hope that is helpful info, and not just telling you something you already know

Very cool! I was always disappointed that the Maxis bay window didn't match anything. Thank you!

The only wish I have so far is that it would be nice to have a collection file to go with it. All future window creations of yours could go in there. Otherwise, I LOVE it. Thank you for all your hard work.

Beautiful work! I've always loved the look of bay windows but you're right, Maxis' version was just bad. Thank you very much for posting these!
