I dont think that anyone else did it. Itachi showed Sasuke how it was done. And at that stage of the MS I dont think that he could do more than just recreate the past, seems that making a new storyline while using the MS would be more advanced. But that could be wrong, who knows, all I know is that he is a villian and when the time comes if Sasukes doesnt kill him due to some new revelation about his past, I will be pissed! -dg-
