Request for Custom "No Cut-Away" Wall Style
Kralore:
I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to create a non-default custom wall that doesn't cut-away. I would be forever grateful.
I looked at the information here... http://linna.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Sims_3:0x9151E6BC#Partition_Types and there is a flag for enable/disable "MayCutAway" and I'm hoping that its as simple as cloning the wall piece and changing that flag. I know nothing about modding in Sims 3, so I don't know if this is possible or even simple to do.

Why not just use the walls always up option? Also there's no such thing as a non-default wall. The closest thing to what your are asking for would be a decorative item that looks like a wall section.

I have to admit, this would be pretty amazing. You could make the non-external walls always stay up, and as long as every room had external walls, you could always see every room no problem- but each room would also have walls that didn't cut away. It would look a lot better.

Walls always up makes it hard to see. I imagine they want this to let certain walls, that don't get in the way, stay up. And fences can be non-default, so making it as a fence might work. Though making them look the same wallpaper-wise would be limited since you can only CAST fences, not wallpaper them.

Now that there are half wall options could it be done as a "halfwall" but make the mesh (cloned from a half wall) almost full wall height? But it would appear under the half wall catagory?
I don't create CC either so I don't know but it's a thought.

Non-default meaning it doesn't replace the existing wall section already in game. It would appear in the build catalog as a new second wall piece option. As Claeric says, with the walls always up, 90% of the time you can't really see what's happening unless the rooms are very big, or you tilt the camera alot. In Sims 2 I used it all the time on small wall sections that were out of the way and wouldn't block the view. For me it makes the house look more like a house if you can have more walls showing but at the same time not completely block the view.
This was already done for Sims 2. http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=59793 ID #95: NUMENOR - "No - Cut Away" wall (attached to this post)
I'm hoping something like this can also be done for Sims 3.
