Hey, let me start saying I love your builds, can’t wait till u upload more 🤗 I am currently setting up a grocery store using your build and just wanted to know where did you store your fruits and vegetables, herbs for sims to buy?? Thank u in advance for your help 

Hi, thanks for the love! There are actually a couple ways I choose to do the above based on who it is that owns the supermarket.

1. If one of my homeworld sims is the farmer and also owns the supermarket, then I usually have a fresh produce section, meaning I just place the stuff they harvest directly unto the savvier seller shelf from their inventory. I usually prefer to use the shelves that came with the indulgence bakery set but use the transmogrifier mod to change the script into savvier seller shelves. Since the farmer own the supermarket, all profits from sales would go to their household funds.

2. If my farmer does not own the supermarket I usually have him consign the produce. In this case, I place one consignment register and one savvier seller register in my supermarket, that way other sims can buy the fresh produce from the consignment register. And therefore profits would go directly to their household fund. Another option is to place the humble harvest stand outside your supermarket and consign produce there, so sims can buy fresh produce from the stand. However, the supermarket owner would not make any profits from the produce only the farmer. 

3. You can also have the farmer “sell” the goods to the supermarket owner. This means adding up the value of the produce being placed on the shelves, subtracting from the supermarket owner’s household funds and adding to the farmer’s household funds. I’m however too lazy to go this route 😜

4. If there is no main farmer but I still want fresh produce being sold in the supermarket, then I have the supermarket owner purchase from the rabbithole supermarket and place on the savvier seller shelf in the fresh produce isle and then sell at a markup to earn some profits.

5. Another option is to place the produce in a treasure chest on the lot such as this vegetable stand by Sandy and have sims purchase using Ani’s Shop from Inventory mod. In this case, one of the supermarket registers will have to be a WA register that will have the new shop from inventory interaction on it. In this instance, whoever owns the LOT will receive the profits from the sale. Why I stress the LOT is that the LOT owner does not have to be the same person as the savvier seller register supermarket shop owner, and therefore they may not receive profits from the sale. But if they are one and the same then no issues.

Maybe more info than you were asking for, but there are so many ways to make it work so you can do whatever is best for your gameplay situation. Let me know if you have any further questions!

Thank you for this! Saw it on YouTube a few months back and thought that if everyone used this method then I would be motivate to download many simmer’s amazing sims, especially those who upload create a sim videos with a link to download 🥰

Sims 3 Tutorial: How to share sims with their CC PROPERLY

(aka, NOT sending a .package)!!

The issue with sending a .package is:

1) You do not know what CC is attached, it may be CC that you are not allowed to share!

2) The person may already have that CC so you are giving them unnecessary extra CC, slowing down their game

3) It includes the sliders, which causes that weird chin or eyelid glitch in game as the sliders clash

4) It can cause issues with exporting sims, leading to it failing to export

Really advise not to do this but to use the method in this video instead!! It is quick and easy :)

Another way for your kiddies to have fun too. Thank you @misspats3 💙

MissPat mod notes:

Why this mod

We were chatting on Discord about cute features from TS4 Toddler Stuff Pack, that we wish existed in TS3. “Play dates” came to mind. Renlyna surprised us all when she said:

Quote: I did have a townie mother once call my active household’s mother up and ask if her kids could come over for a play date and I clicked yes and within a few minutes the townie mother came to my sims home with all her kids. I didn’t even know that was possible in The sims 3 and I have no idea how it was triggered. It was so random.

The above scenario never ever happened in my game. (It turns out it’s a feature that came along one of the Generations EP patches.)

I was curious to see if something could be tweaked to trigger the play dates more. When I looked up the game’s code, I found the tuning file related to play dates. I made changes and tested the new tuning files for 3 sim weeks. The testing was successful, so here goes - enjoy the mod.

I tuned the minimum relationship down to “5” to account for the natural relationship decrease between two sims over time. So if your active parent and child start as aquaintances to townies at “20”, then overtime, they will still get the playdate requests on week-ends, even if the relationship is way down to “5”.

Play dates Insights

While testing the mod I could gather the following insights:

The play date feature seems to only affect child-aged sims. I looked up closely and no toddlers are mentioned in the play dates code. If the townie parent comes along with toddlers to your sims’ play date, great! But it is not by design. It would likely require script modding to intentionally include toddlers in the play date scenario.

If after accepting the play date, the townie parent shows up alone sans his/her children, do not panic (like I did)! Townie children enrolled in a school with week-end hours will not show up. Indeed, the custom schools provided by the “Schools” module of Nraas Careers require kids to attend classes on Saturday and Sunday by default. You will need to enroll townie children in EA’s default school or tune the days of custom schools, to get these townie children to show up at your play dates.

I had no problems getting townies to request play dates on Saturday, often in the morning. To trigger play date requests on Sundays however, I had to quit the game on Saturday evening or Sunday morning. When I’d restart the game after that, I’d systematically get a play date request on the Sunday afternoon. In the play dates code, there is a line called “clear statistics”, and I can only assume that somehow, it takes reloading the game to clear data generated by the Saturday play date, so that a townie play date request can be renewed on Sunday.

Hello, lovely! I love seeing your gameplay posts as your sims live in NorthBend. Would you be willing to share a list of lots in your North Bend Save similar to how SGI Real Estate had done for Saint Greer please?

Hi there!

Going to answer this publicly since others might want to know my process.

Thank you! 😊 Starting out it's honestly not any different than @eisfee posted here -> https://eisfee.tumblr.com/post/704267430450626560/north-bend-lots-list and @purplellama https://purplellama.tumblr.com/tagged/purple+llama+downloads/page/2

Maybe a few lots I didn't use or changed later. I started out by putting all of Purplellama's lots down. They tell you what lot number/street to put them on and whatever was left is what I filled in from Eisfee's lot list. I didn't use the MTS lots as those aren't my taste and I knew I wanted to edit them all eventually.

I'm still working on community lots. So eventually when I'm finished I'll try and get around to doing a final map with pictures of all the lots.
