I tried this mod with just WA and IP since the end of the mod description suggested that it might work, and I don't have LN installed. The glass is not positioned correctly during animations, and some animations seem to be missing. Here are some screenshots of the issues: http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...677#post5024677

It would be amazing if this great mod can be made to work with IP.

I've been having the same issue. I can't install LN because of the celebrity thing, and it's really annoying to have my Sims standing there like doofuses while the glass merges into their arm.

You can disable celebrities in the options, if that is all that is preventing you from installing LN.

@Butterbot @madamebellanova I've simplified the carrying animations for players with IP but not LN. It's not a 100% proper (if you look closely it looks like there is an invisible cup around the stem of the glass being held instead) but it's only for when sims are carrying the glass about and not when they actually drink from it (which should be now fixed as well). The problem was that the only glass holding animation provided in IP are specific to the pool bar, so without LN you'll have to settle with the base game glass holding animation instead.
EDIT: Turns out I was wrong, see my reply to Butterbot down below

@icarus_allsorts

Thank you so much for tweaking the animations for IP--I was very excited to test this out when I saw the update! The "invisible cup hold" is not a huge problem if the rest of the animations are OK. Anyway, I just tried this in-game and noticed that the sim's arm would drop to their side immediately after picking up a glass from the tray, and again as they're about to enter the hot tub. The glass also clips a lot into their face when they drink in the hot tub. Outside of the hot tub, there are no drinking animation at all, just the arm drop.

Thanks again for looking into this!

@Butterbot Thank you for your report. Upon further investigation, I have some bad news: without Late Night there simply are no drinking animations usable by sims with the Island Paradise cocktail glass except for the ones exclusively with pool bars. I had only tested with the Island Paradise cocktail glass object in my own game which does have Late Night installed, which meant the LN animations were automatically used on the IP glass.

This does mean that the mod does require Late Night to work after all despite my previous assumptions, and there isn't anything I can do about this since dealing with animations isn't something I know how to do to be honest. I'm really sorry for claiming otherwise before.

Btw, after checking it looks like the glass clipping when sims are drinking in hot tubs happens even with Late Night installed and with all the default Late Night bar drinks that come in cokctail glasses as well. I guess it's ironic that you caught this issue using this modified nectar glass since sims could never drink the default nectar glasses in hot tubs in the first place.

@icarus_allsorts

Ah, bummer. Many thanks for looking into this anyway and explaining why it's not feasible. This is nonetheless a great mod for those who have LN installed.

Hey is it possible to change the tuning in your mod so that I can keep the colour changes but with the original Nectar glasses and not the LN ones?

If I were to use this with the drinks at Around The Sims 3 (https://aroundthesims3.com/objects/..._drink_01.shtml) would it create any conflict?

No conflict at all. ATS3's drinks are based on the juice that sims get from bars, whereas icarus' mod only affects the nectar glasses. ATS3 drinks are still served in the tumblr style glasses with this mod installed.
I have had this mod, together with ATS3's drinks installed in my game, for many years with no problems.
Hope this helps!
