This is an absolutely wonderful additon to our Sims 2 gameplay. Thank you so much for this. I love that you included the little frock tree and Veranka's trees. The smaller trees are perfect for Sims that have limited space in their home. I've needed something like this for a long time. Bienchen's tree is one of my favorites and I'm glad that it is also a part of this set. Thank you also for the link to the recolors of Bienchen's tree.

Oh wow. I remember asking on the tree you made if they could summon Santa, I never expected this though! These are all wonderful (and sorry if my curiosity made more work for you

)!

These are fantastic and very much appreciated.

You did it! Thank you very much! The kids in my neighborhoods will be so excited to see Santa! (although I'd like to see him, too...)

Ah, perfect! Sometimes you have the tree and the cookies, and he doesn’t show up! It might be routing issues if he brought one gift already and it’s in the way. Other times, you forget to bake cookies, and get a lump of coal! Or guests eat them before he can get one.

So, ummmmm, I found another CC Christmas tree and was wondering if it would be possible to have it added to this mod? Bad timing really - I had a good search for CC Christmas trees when you were asking for suggestions and thought I'd found them all, then I found this one yesterday.... It's a small decorative tabletop tree by Macarossi, and can be found here.

@lauratje86 I'd rather not change the mod at this point but for your own use you can always change the GUID on Marcarossi's tree to one of the unused ones I listed and it will work to summon Santa just like the others.

I like this, but I've encountered a problem (glitch?). Using the little base maxis tree I can only get Santa once. Does he only spawn once per season (I've tried in various seasons)? I'm running Sims2 Ultimate collection (Origin edition). I've got cookies ready by 9:30 pm, I make sure no one is in the kitchen (where I put the tree) there's even plenty of blank space around the tree for presents. Any ideas? Do I need to buy the tree new each time? I tried different trees, still no luck. Also, does anyone else have Santa sticking around and peeing a lot until you dispose of the cookies?

@Honeybee8587 I was only able to summon Santa once as well when testing. I just assumed that's the way the originals worked and that there's a cool down period so you can make cookies throughout the season without accidentally summoning Santa.

Santa does hang around afterwards and is infamous for clogging Sims toilets - that I do know.
