I think EA always intended stuff to be shared. It was the "creators" who didn't want their items shared on the Exchange because they didn't feel like they were being credited. Even though when you look at the list of custom content it shows the creator's name if there is one. At least for BodyShop and Homecrafter stuff. Objects is a different story I guess.
I never understood why someone would get bent out for shape when one of their walls or floors showed up in a house at the Exchange when all they did was take an image from the internet and turn it into a wall with Homecrafter. Credit for what? Right -clicking?

Horrible, horrible EA! How could they? I mean, ensuring that content offered on their site comes complete with everything needed for the content to work. It's criminal.
Actually, I wish they'd put as much thought into debugging and testing the game as they do improving the exchange.
Well, I think I'm going to go upload some meshes to the exchage now :twisted: .
Spread the love, y'all, spread the love.

Another dirty little secret about meshes is that most of the people who make them use pirated cracked 3D programs to do it. Of course they won't tell you that. I've always wondered if the Exchange the & way the sims2pack files suck everything up like a vacuum was EA's subtle way to help foil paysites. Too bad it's an poorly organized cess pool that no one but lobotomized 10 year olds want to use.

I figure if I need ot make another, I'll do what I always do with timed demos- bookmark the download site and return once a month ~_^

Well yes I suppose there's that too lol. That would be the low tech way to get around registering shareware.

And I highly doubt if the biggest pay site owners actually purchased Photoshop or PSP, even though they get enough money. (But hey, ofcourse they cant pay 2k on a stupid programm they have to save for a new kidney ofcourse!)

Yup, that's why the quality is like a two-bit artwork. Except for a couple of exceptional items I never found anything worth paying anyway. If only EA would hire its own interior designers, make-up artists, or even a plastic surgeons for professional advice for this game then we didn't need to put up with these amateur "designers". I know quality when I look at it.

Well now, this whole thing just keeps getting better and better. :mrgreen:
EA actually did a good thing for a change. Imagine that. Did hell freeze over when I wasn't looking? Nah hell didn't freeze over...just EA screwed up AGAIN..but this time they lucked into something good. Unfortunately I do have some bad news....this is a bug. EA didn't intend for this to happen, and they are looking into ways to address this "bug". From what I've heard, there is a reason that meshes never were included in sims2packs, and they still really don't want them in the packs. Potential problems with duplicate meshes, and potentially spreading of "bad" meshes are the main reasons that meshes were not intended to be included. Of course on the bright side..this is another example of how stupid EA is :-/

You know, they said that about hacks, too. And there's a legitimate reason NOT to package hacks. But did they ever stop it? Nope. They just put a "non-Maxis" warning label on it. Odds are they will do nothing about meshes, either, and this is just EA-speak for "lalalala, we're not listening!".

Of course on the bright side..this is another example of how stupid EA is :-/ Lmao. I actually thought it was great to have meshes included into SimPackages, it would make Sims sharing way easier. Bu then again a bunch of creators would pop up complaining about "illegal" redistribuition of their meshes, so.. :?
