Buyable MP3 Player as a stereo; Handheld Game as an electronic game!
As it says on the tin, this little organizational tweak simply takes the in-game MP3 player and LeTourney XS Handheld Game, and makes them buyable from the catalog - AND - recategorizes them to their proper places in the catalog. Well, the "proper" places according to me anyway! LOL!
INGREDIENTS:
- Each one is a separate file, so you can choose only one, or both
- The buyable MP3 Player is found in the catalog under electronics - in the audio/stereo section
- The buyable Handheld Game is found in the catalog under electronics - in the entertainment/games section
- If you want the cellphone too, please get it from either Neder or Cyjon (links below) - as both of them have it, and it's already in the correct category.
INSTALLATION:
To make it so the CC-star/asterisk doesn't show up (it's an in-game object, after all!) put these in your "Bins" folder. That's where I keep mine and it works great!
Install here: C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES -or- OriginGames...\Fun with Pets -or- whatever-your-highest-EP-is...\TSData\Res\Catalog\Bins
There are other similar mods to this (I found, after I figured out how make this by myself Note to self: check what's out there first!)
but they are not re-categorized as I have done with these. My mod works
the same as theirs; but they kept both items in the catalog with
telephones. If you have other mods that make these 2 items buyable,
or recategorizes them somewhere else in the catalog, please remove those mods before
using mine.
Two similar mods that I am aware of are:
Neder's on MTS2
and Cyjon's on his site
Defaults should work fine - especially if you've put these fixes back in your ProgramFiles/Bins, and have your defaults in your regular Download folder.
Polygon Counts:
MP3 player = same as Maxis
Handheld Game = same as Maxis

Special thanks to Phaenoh who taught me how to recategorize everything!
