The Sims 2 Base Game Bathtub Replacements - No Decoration + Minor Fix
MainThumb.png - width=1538 height=519

!!!!PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE DOWNLOADING!!!!

So things can be clear since there is something to take note of, so you won't be confused at a certain moment.
I removed the decorations aka the schampoo bottles, grass, soapbar, etc, from the other bathtubs from the Base Game aswell since after the previous post, I got reminded about the other tubs from the Base Game, so I decided to tweak them aswell!
The Package file is already compressorized
Installation
Unzip the file and then drop the Package file into your Downloads folder in your Documents>EA Games>The Sims 2 OR The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection OR The Sims 2 Legacy folder, depending on your version of the game.
Conflicts
Anything that edits the mesh, so to say, the Geometric Data Container will conflict with the objects mesh.
Custom recolors will still work.
A minor mistake I noticed and fixed
While I did tweak the UV map (yes that's how I made these Defaults except the "Black and White "bare" tub") I noticed that the "Hubba Tubba" (the white one) and the "Simple Tub" (the grey one) had their UV's abit side off the texture map, resulting in a weird small white line on the tubs (see below.) It wasn't noticable the brighter recolor there was, but the more darker recolors, it became more noticable.
Now to the more important part to take note of.
A slight faulty thing I CAN NOT FIX
Since there is 2 textures for each bathtub (clean and dirty) and Maxis did their own shadow and such for the decor, I unfortunatly can not fix the textures for the "Hubba Tubba" and "Simple Tub", It would be too much work for me to edit and replace the textures and I also don't want it to be incompatible with others recolors aswell, etc, so I only mirrored the UV mapping where the shadows were to match the otherside instead. But don't let that scare you off! It is more noticable to more patterned recolors and especially the dirty texture, I bet most (if not all) users will use plain recolors instead of a... stripped bathtub? Zebra print perhaps lol!

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
