This is no less than fantastic! I really love it. But I cant get it to work :-(. I updated my game a couple of days ago, downloaded your mod this morning, so it should be up-to-date. I can request the gardner, but he does not show up. I can't se the truck either. My maid doesn't show up either, nor does the thingy to repair things (Sorry, English isn't my first langueage :-)). I still get the newspaper delivered. I tried to wait two sim days, and got the message, that the gardner would arrive next morning. He didn't. All that happened, after installing the mod was the very first sim day, the gardner showed up. This is my first mod-download ever :-(.
What can I do?

humm, this mod is compatible with 1.29,1.28,1.23.

so this is very weird. try testing with a new family/town to see if it's working.

Installed, have option on phone, gardener showed up, but she just stands there and doesn't do anything. Any ideas?

Update - never mind, it just took her a while to get to work.

Do you think you can make a dog walker or maybe somebody that always takes good care of your pets just like a babysitter

Hey, thanks! Your mod has helped me a lot, since my architect is now too busy to manage her garden. I think it would be great if you had the choice between the fridge or a sim, since I hate the excellent quality produce being placed with normal or nice quality ones, because then I have to drag them one by one into her inventory to sell.

you can sell at the Store/Market, so the products will be filter by Quality.

Hi. After looking inside the subject i wrote a german translation for this. Maybe you will add it.

After testing a little bit around i found some little bugs/mistakes you want to know and maybe fix.

*in "About" it still says version 1.16, but its 1.17

*if you click on option "BackToWork" an additional "Fire"-option will be added to the menu. So after one click you will have 2 "Fire"-Options, then three and so on
*if you click "Fire" and "BackToWork" in a row, the actual gardener will talk to you and drive away. But an unvisible gardener without car and skin will stay and finish the work

I hope some of this will help you.

Thx again

@douglasveiga

Sorry for complaining, but I dislike the gardener uniform.

The white and green is too bright, smooth and clean to me. By adding texture and dirt will be perfect, It's better to be EA matching.

How about different shape of the cloth? To be less tidy and more macho! (well, my female sims like it.....) :D

Or.....how about gardener wearing casual cloth? Casual cloth can be change and customized at will.

......................................

Do you have any tutorial to make custom NPC like your gardener?

I am having difficulty with this one---it doesn't show up as a service to call, nor anywhere else. I have waited several sim days for it to appear, and it doesn't. Do I need some sort of other mod to make it work correctly. Thanks for this by the way! Hoping I can actually use it!

I've loved and used this mod since you uploaded it. I usually only play one household per world, but today I decided to switch households from one that was using this gardener, and my new household gets the messages about the gardener from the previous household. Not a big issue, but thought I'd let you know

Keep up the great work! :D

this issue was fixed some weeks ago, download the new version and use the Cancel Service interaction.

use the wall-phone (telephone), not the Mobile.

the appron is from the basegame, i just changed the color. the npc is generated by the system, so i can't change the body.

I did. And the deskphone. Nothing. Am I supposed to download another mod before using it?

Nice mod,

I cant seem to get the gardner to enter my lot though. It's completely fenced in to keep out all the roaming animals and undesireables. The gardner comes to the front gate, but wont enter the lot.

Thank you very much. I have used it a lot. But since I patched my game to version 1.31, I've been wondering if this need to be updated?
