Crystal clear - Improved glass (Updated with links)

I have been working on a little project for personal use, but thought I’d share with the community.

Crystal clear glass is glass that has all of the translucent window texture removed so that looking out of sim windows or glass panels in doors will be more like through freshly washed glass.

I have completed set 1, and have uploaded it in three flavors. Doors, Windows, or Crystal clear combo, which has both.

Doors: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7yacGihf-UTOWRQYWpoOXd2TFE/view?usp=sharing
Windows: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7yacGihf-UTd1pNVWl3ZGVmdDg/view?usp=sharing
Crystal Clear combo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7yacGihf-UTXzAxZF9HUXlyU0E/view?usp=sharing

Here is a list of all included items along with the corresponding needed pack:

    Hey @Linamints first of all thank you for this incredible work! I downloaded your combo, but I believe that in the middle of the files they have replacement files and I would like to keep the original version as well. I could not identify by name what are the override files, could you give me a hand? Thank you in advance! <3


    Hello! Thank you for your kind words! Override files should have override in the name, or be in an override folder. If you tell me which windows are incorrect I will upload a fix! So sorry for the inconvenience!
  • Omg I never understood why they all look so foggy thanks so much for sharing!!

    Hi @Linamints ! Thanks for reply :) I actually did a test and removed the older files (dated 2016) from the base game windows to try to figure out which ones were overlapping and worked in a certain way. I believe that not all of these files are overlapping, but for the windows I wanted to use, the overlay is gone and I also have access to the clear version. But I noticed that other clear versions have disappeared, in addition to the overlap, but I do not know how to check this otherwise out of the game. I hope you understood and thanks again!

    Hello, thank you for looking. In one of the earlier posts I posted links to an updated version of the files, I don't believe these are overrides, give these a try!

    @Beezon Here is what I have so far, I think a couple doors from get together need to be done, but there is a lot here!
    In these sets so far as I know, there are all the doors and windows from the base game, get to work, get together*(pretty sure there are 2 missing doors from this file, I'll look for them or re-do them eventually), romantic garden, spa day, vampires and vintage glamour.

    Crystal Clear Doors & Windows combo:

    I also have an override file mostly done (this replaces the version in game instead of adding a double to the catalog), but it will take awhile to finish. I'll see what I can do though,



    If you still have issues please post here and I'll dig through them and make sure they are not override files.
