Raise and lower the mirror!

Post by Cruiseship » May 17th, 2023, 5:29 pm

hello to all! please i need a mod, a way to raise and lower the mirrors. I have the alverdine one (mod the sims 3) for the curtains, which works great, but if I also put the one for the mirrors, the game crashes! Can you recommend me anything else?

hm what about the cheat moveobjects on?
I cannot remember if this works with mirrors, I am not in-game
shift (or ctrl?) + right click (or left?) hold and move up or down...

In the program s3oc when you clone a mirror you can go to Misc Flags (2) and tick the box CanBeMovedUpDownOnWall, and when you save the clone and put the .package file in your mods/packages folder you will have an identical mirror in the game that can be moved up and down on the wall.Image Image

Heads up: Sims using e.g. a lowered mirror will sink into the floor and then often get stuck there. So, use cautiously :)

Thanks for the warning! That's probably why there is no mod. :)

Cororon, Hi, there!

I'm not intending to do this with mirrors, but I'd like to ask if I could do the same as you've shown, by using S3PE.
And also I'd like to know if it's necessary to create a clone of an object when we want to change something in it.
By the way, thanks for your detailed answer (above). ;)

Hi, yes you need to clone an EA original object.and this you can edit.

With s3oc, it is not just a copy, but gets a new id and everything so it will not conflict.

Hi, C-Dark!

...and can I do it using S3PE or do I need to do this by S3OC ?

I have never tried it with S3PE so I don't know. :)

First clone with s3oc and then open this clone and you can either edit parts with s3oc or S3pe.
