  4. You're very welcome, MunMun. 🙂 Least I can do is to try and get some more helpful information or try to troubleshoot basic installation issues. Like you, I trained in a medical field and then dipped my toes into programming and tech stuff however I'm nowhere near as skilled in either field and haven't the faintest idea how to create the kind of food, recipes or harvestables that you have. You make my game so much more fun and so if I can help out with some of the basic troubleshooting, then I'm happy enough to do that.

  9. Is your file in .package format ? Can you find the object in the catalogue ? Are the interactions showing up ? Have you set up the coop and fed the chickens ?

  10. Hi! I get an last exeption (MCC) when I try to open the egg carton. I can eat the easter eggs, but I cant open the carton. What might be wrong? I can sell it though, but I really want to be able to eat them. Do I need the other mod for Cooking to open it?Thank you!

  14. Also – try putting the eggs down on the floor/counter/table and then opening the carton. Sometimes that works if it causes an LE when you try to opening it from inside the inventory (or did in the past).

  15. Looking forward to this – I love Srslysims cooking overhaul too, and it would be good to know that your OJ cure for fowl flu and simonella will work too with that mod. Also – is there any way you could hook into the medicine for a cure as well? That would definitely be helpful too.

  24. The mod is not outdated. The golden egg 'eat' option is just enabled by mistake. The mod works as it should. Just dont eat the golden egg :p ( I will remove the 'eat' option in the next update)

  29. @munmun I'm having issues extracting the file for Mac? I am also working on a laptop from 2011… so my OS is pretty outdated. But when I try to extract it simply tells me “Done! Not a package!” and doesn't do anything.

  32. I believe that my sim was supposed to go to school when this happened. It has not happened since this incident. Thank you for being so efficient & on top of everything! 😊

  36. After the recent patch, I was looking over Srslysims' update list and saw something that would do much the same as the previous comment. Srslysims has mod to make the antidote from Jungle Adventure available on any computer with two options: as purchase antidote or as purchase medicine. I wonder how difficult it would be to add/adapt your OJ cure to this mod. Just a thought.

  40. Yep it works with the new patch. It just does not have an eco footprint. I will add that later. But one thing to note – eating the golden eggs will give an LE so dont eat it!

  46. I'm having issues, when I collect eggs there are none in the sims inventory, and there are no easter eggs when they are found either. Is there something I'm missing?
