This is a follow on mod To Test: Various In-Game Objects enabled for World Creation made by Simsample. :beer:

While I've been designing my current world, I wanted to include some extra objects, that I could not get from CAW.

This is a compilation of objects from each expansion released so far, so the number objects will depend on how many expansions and stuff packs you have.

If you use these objects in your worlds then people who play your worlds will NOT have to download these items (as they are already in the game files) provided that they have the required EPs.

A number of objects have been made so they work in-game as landmarks, so you can place them on the fly.

The set is a compilation so currently does not include all landmarks, but it seems that rabbit holes do work when placed outside a lot.

Some of the animation works, for example I made a burning Car, but the Train and balloons are static. :faceslap:

Other interesting stuff, television work outside lots and so do many of the other objects, the treasure spawners, I've not played about with yet to see if they work or not.

Some of the objects have also been setup to work in buydebug mode.

This mod does not contain any objects previously uploaded by GiLaNg and simsample, so if you wish to include them extra objects you will need to download them separate:-

I've also included a selection of cars:-

INSATLLING

If you have already played about with in-game objects, just do what you did last time if not:-

1. Remove the packages from the download, that are from any expansion or stuff pack you do not have available.

2. Open Create-a-World folder in Program Files

3. Create folder called Packages

4. Append these lines to Resource.cfg files which located in Create-a-World program folder:
Priority 501
DirectoryFiles Files/... autoupdate
Priority 500
PackedFile Packages/*.package
PackedFile Packages/*/*.package
PackedFile Packages/*/*/*.package
PackedFile Packages/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile Packages/*/*/*/*/*.package


5. Put the package inside the Package folder.

If you wish to make your own objects this link should help you:-

To answer the question Why I did not do them all, first this is a compilation of objects, I did not want 1000s of random objects in my caw and it pretty time consuming.

Great resources. I had already done this to a lot of objects, but you've got it covered. I unlocked a whole bunch of Barnacle Bay objects for CAW placement, but seeing as it's store content I won't share those. Cool to see cannons in my pirate world. :P

Thanks for these :beer:
I was wondering if you knew of a tutorial to add objects from the game into CAW.
There are a few fences/walls that I would quite like in my world and I'm not really sure how to go about this :(
In fact I've spent what seems like most of the day searching with no success so far.
Thanks soo much

Hey there Tamlo, I'm a bit confused as to how you got that fire. Is that off lot? What is it under in the Metadata?

Hmm, this got me thinking... I got a huge park area which could use some usable benches and a subway station... based on what I read, the subway station should work as it is a rabbithole! *runs off to do some testing*

I am not sure if this thread is still active, but can I just get the Taxi and the Subway portal?

I'll get you the subway station if someone could confirm that CAW/EIG placed rabbit holes still work? I had various rabbit holes enabled for CAW/EIG and I noticed they seemed to stop working with Supernatural. Sims would just scream route-fail at me, and I think this is caused by the very same issue that someone else experienced with CAW enabled actor trailers; an invisible ring of unroutable terrain. -_-

Btw, subways worked fine previously, Wafers. I used EIG to place them all the time! :-) As for taxis, I'm not sure what you mean. The taxi itself is just a car that will even be deleted if you use NRaas' Overwatch and the "clean up vehicles" option. If you need a taxi for deco reasons I think there are purely decorative taxis around somewhere. 0_o

I just exported a newer version of my world and the only rabbithole I had the route fail problem with, was the Late Night spa/bookstore combo rabbithole. Also, the subways can be entered when placed off lot, but often times, they'll just get thrown out of the same subway. They're only truly functional when placed on lots.
