Another unintentional mod, kinda. More of a happy accident, actually. Ever since I discovered the half-fake door in Numenor's WallWindows , I've wanted and searched for half-fake windows to complement it. Now, thanks to screwing up while following Ignorant Bliss' excellent window creation tutorialhttp://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=98436 , I finally have a half-fake window.

It's quite simple, really: On one side of the wall there is a window, and on the other side - nothing but wall. There's a diagonal version as well, so you'll need to install both files. I could go on and on about it, but the facts won't change - it's just a one-way window, that is undetectable on the other side. There's not even a fake mirror to give it away. Speaking of giving it away, please download if you think it sounds fun or if you can find a practical use for such an item.

Some technical info:
All window colors made in SimPE. All frame textures are generated by Wood Workshop by Spiral Graphics[url=http://spiralgraphics.biz/products.htm]) and edited in GIMP.
