What's to come?

Time for a little bring-you-all-up-to-speed with what I am working on right now, and some thoughts about the upcoming November patch.

It has been a little while since the last updated version of the mod, due to a couple of things. First of all, what I am working on is a huge implementation and all of it needs to be in place before I can upload it, even at an early stage or else it will just feel broken. Secondly, real life has been ridiculously hectic the last couple of weeks, which means that...

Pax 3 vaporizer, better curing, overhaul to customer calls +++

Alright, where to begin... This is a big one! For starters, you can start vaping with the newly added Pax 3 vaporizer. Then there is the massive overhaul to the customers calling system, which was the result of the poll. Then there is not only a much needed upgrade to how curing works, but also rolling blunts and spliffs, as well as a bunch of other fixes. I even added a couple more edibles and swipeable paraphernalia.

Poll Ended (Thoughts and conclusion)

So, the results of the poll turned out to be quite different than I expected. Which in all honesty is a good thing. It is a first for these polls where the numbers have been so tied. Especially the "Way too often" and "Just the right amount" bits. 

Seeing that there wasn't one of the option that turned out to be overwhelmingly positive, I have decided to rather adjust a bit how this all works. I am currently working on implementing this, and I reckon I should have this new version up and ...

It's that time again... Yup! It is Poll-Time!

Just a heads up, if you haven't already voted. The poll ends on Saturday
29.09.18, 01.49 PM CEST - So, get on it if you want your opinion to be heard!

So far it looks as if the opinions are quite split on this, and if it stays like that after the poll ends, I will not make any super-radical changes to it in terms of extreme reduction or increasing of the frequency of phone calls.

I am however leaning towards adjusting the frequency based on wether the customers are recreational ...

Brace yourselves! It is poll-time!

I am looking to improve some more of the 3D models in the game, and I have started working with LumiaSims to do just that. He did the remodel of the Cannabis Plants, and he is eager to do some more work.

So, in that regard, I thought I could run a little poll on what item you guys think needs a little upgrade in terms of looks. Or, a completely new thing all together. Please don't add more suggestions to this list as this is a definite list of specific things that will get fixed shortly, and I...

Real Names for Alcholic Drinks

Updated Post:

Thanks a bunch for all your help and fantastic suggestions. I combined this with looking at the tuning files (some of them were actually named after the real life drinks), and I also tried to stay clear of alcohol brand names and real life places, and rather stay true to the Sims lore.

Example: Even though a Ridgeport is probably based on a Manhattan, there is a town in Sims 3 named Bridgeport, so the drink is now called Bridgeport.

The real names for alcoholic dr...

Patch PC 1.45.62.1020/ Mac 1.45.62.1220

I have tested it as thoroughly as I could muster, and I am happy to say that it should be safe to use Basemental Drugs in its current state with the newest game patch.

I anticipated having to spend the night fixing and repairing the mod for the new patch, but instead I have had the luxury of working on the new "smuggling" feature. Also happy to say that it is almost done. Just some minor tweaks left to sort out.

Small Update on What's to Come

Hey guys,

I reckon you deserve some info on what is to come in the future update of the mod. As always I started making a new feature that was going to be a small and nifty little extra thing that is starting to evolve into something way bigger than I first envisioned. The main reason it was going to be a minor thing is that it requires the Jungle Adventures EP for it to work.

The last few versions has been mostly bug fixes (a part from the overhaul of animations and that of course), so ...
