What is the actual dimension of wallpaper in Sims 2?
I've just gotten into making cc wallpapers, and I know in Homecrafter plus the template is 256x512, but this is just not the actual dimensions the wallpaper will be displayed as in game, as it's taller than 512 pixels.
I screenshotted one of my wallpapers in the homecrafter display and by my measurements, if I adjust the ratio of the pixels where the width of one panel is 256 pixels, the height would have to be ~757 pixels (give or take a few).
I know when I import my texture into photoshop to overwrite the working file, and then export at 256x512, it VERY obviously stretches the image to be taller, and it does so in game as well, so why is the template/working dimensions 256x512? Will it work fine if I just adjust the working image size to match my measurements (757 ish x 512)? or will that make it freak out in some way? Or is there a better, easier way around this that I'm not aware of? Because when making my textures I have to be aware that it will stretch vertically, which makes making precise adjustments very annoying and tedious.
