Two new orchard trees for your gardening Sims. They have the full range of functionality as the EAxis trees - they need to be clipped, they catch bugs, give gardening skill badges, cause plant sims etc. I cloned these without Freetime, so if you have Freetime they won't give any hobby enthusiasm, except for spraying which I left semi-global.

The meshes I used are EAxi's own meshes, so I apologise for the high poly counts. In any case, most of the mesh parts will have a Null TXMT at any given time, so the functional poly count will be lower than the maximum. I have given each tree its own textures.

I have tweaked the trees in two ways. I have slightly increased the harvest quantity, and made it dependant on crop quality as well. I have also enabled a snowy winter state for the trees in neighbourhood view. Although the Lod90 textures for the orchard trees included a snowy winter state it wasn't working and the trees stayed in their summer state all year round - at least in my game! The picture below shows my trees seen from a neighbouring lot with two EAxi's apple trees next to them, so you can see what I mean.



I have also tweaked the fruit a little. I have made it buyable (under appliances/Misc). I have increased the number of surfaces it can be placed on and I have added a new interaction, Eat Peach/Eat Pear. I took the coding and animation for this from the Castaway Stories harvestable tropical trees. It is an autonomous interaction if you leave harvested fruit available, and fills hunger about 25%. Eating fruit is also enjoyable if your Sim has the right personality.

As well as being eaten, the fruit can be used to stock the fridge, or sold in a business. It can be used to stock the juicer, but won't make juice.

The trees are available in Garden Center/Gardening for $1,200 each. The packages have been compressorised.

Texture attributions are under the spoiler
