About smoking and weed mods.

Hello everybody, do you know if is possible to modify or create a new plant and after make the possibilitie of "make" a "Joint" from it? Or in other way, simply buy tobacco like the mod of Sims 3... Thanks for everyone!

That would most likely be mostly a scripting/tuning thing, so I’m moving this to Modding Discussion (where all the coding stuff goes). Maybe start with modifying some of the in-game plants, try to edit one into a custom one, and take it from there? From what I’ve seen custom plants don’t seem overly difficult (at least not as long as you’re OK with using an existing harvest prop for it, until there are tools for custom meshes).

Hello, and thank you for answering. I do not have much idea about modding, and also my s4pe does not work (not fixable Error reading resource

).

I wonder if there is any way to modify any original plant , and especially how to get my " sim" can smoke in some way...
I hope someone can help me out . Thank you very much , see you soon!

~~About your s4pe not working, can you make a new thread in Tools please?~~ -- well that was a quick fix.

To get started with getting into XML tuning you can read this, and of course the Maxis CC guide (see sticky). There is also a nice “scripting for beginners” walkthrough in Tutorials.

How are you searching for it?

I recommend a text search over your XML folder (what you extracted with velocity's tool), e.g. for "plant". Same for the tdesc folder (what you downloaded from Maxis).

I found this in Puddle.tdesc:

And this 2 in the ScriptObject.tdesc:

You have extracted the XML files with the velocitygrass Extractor? Look in the folder called 'object'. Scroll down to objectGardeningPlant; these are the plants files. There are also other gardening and plants files spread around other places, maybe in the folders 'object-state' or 'interaction' or 'buff' maybe. Things in this game are split up into smaller Xml files and spread out all over the place.
