So I thought it would be a REALLY great idea to take one of the drink glasses (the round one, because it looks like a wine glass) from LN and replace the ugly tumbler nectar glass from WA.


So far I have gotten to replacing the meshes and copying and pasting each bit of every element into my package file. Also the package is apparently missing an LOD. (That was from cloning the object, btw) Everything looks good... until the sim picks up the glass. The glass floats in between the sim's palm and the sim impales it into its face and noms it. I'm thinking it's either a joint, animation, or slot problem. Which one is it?

I've attached the 7z and an image to show what I mean.

It's an animation issue, mostly.
Try finding a glass whose animations more closely follow what you'd like for your and use it's script class name in your object.
If that doesn't work, you'll need to dig into the object files looking for the animation reference, which I can't help yu with,
But Granthes may be able to

Is your glass taller than the object you've cloned? The floating in the palm part is just how the animation works. You have to make the object to match the animation(i.e. shorten the stem). That is hilarious, btw.

eta: Another option would be to move the bone up, but that's a little more complicated.

I believe the glass is taller than the nectar glass. What about the position? I did modify all of the positions (OBJK?, VXPY?, etc... I forget which ones) so that they would EXACTLY be in the same position. I did have some things set above and below 0.



I'm testing the script class at the moment. If that doesn't work, you mean the Hex code? 0x42342424242something something? I have that one done.

Edit: The script class does not work. I replaced

Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.CookingObjects.NectarBottle+NectarGlass

with

Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Counter.NectarBottle+NectarGlass
which was orginally
Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Counter.Barsomethingsomething

and got the original glasses back.

Is that right? I used the vanishing object download as a reference.

That would only change how it looks by itself, not how it works with the animation.
