More Awesome Than You!

Has anybody the "Fountainless Fountain Planter"?

See my next post for both downloads.

I just decostumized these two items. Downloads attached.

Fixes:
- Removed duplicate files (such as gnome textures).
- Planter is treated as a plant not a sculpture (PlantGlobals).
- Each item has its own Group Number.
- Gnome Sculpture builds Nature Enthusiasm.
- Compressed with The Compressorizer!

(http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/Themes/babylon/images/english/new.gif) Re-updated the moroccan planter, forgot to include something really important. Redownload please.

Could someone please post pictures of these items?  I've Googled and nobody seems to have one up anywhere.  :/

Here they are:

The moroccan bench is missing. No one appears to have, will decostumize as soon as I get it.

Do these files require M&G?

They don't.

Richief, I have asked EA about the bench and am still waiting for their reply... If nobody has ever offered that as a bonus, I guess they will put it on the official site or Store later.

Obviously the ShitStore™. They wouldn't pass up an opportunity like that.

I still wonder what ever happened to those baby items..?

Thank you  ;D  I could not get my Gnome as code did not work what play.com gave me.

Pangolin try this link maybe the code is for the Deco Bench.

You already have your game and pre-order code from them?
I'm still waiting on mine...  >:(

My guess is they'll be in SP #10. I saw someone post on a forum (I don't remember which one) that GameStop has Sims 2 EP 10 listed in their coming soon games list.

Hmmm, that's odd because while M&G loads it says, "Reticulating Splines for the last time." That's not the most concrete evidence but I assumed it meant they were done.

Is this the post you are referring to?  http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&hideFramework=true&openItemID=item.231,item.43,item.61,item.41,item.127,item.23&threadID=f7940b7bea0727fc2224bc9f4059e3f1&directoryID=131&startRow=1#d89ecd0e465d2cd99608981ebad36446
The author is SweetpeasCorner, and the message states, "The Gamestop manager I purchased MG Stuff from told me there are plans for a couple more releases still for Ts2 after Ts3 has been released. He wasn't sure what they were though. He didn't have anymore information. Perhaps those are just combo gift sets or something. "  I personally don't anticipate any new packs for the Sims 2 after the M&G one. 

That will be lies and propaganda, also Gamestop are known to be idiots, don't believe them unless it's official.

I guess that manager was referring to The Sims 2 Complete Collection ;D

I heard from somewhere the bench is also offered by Play.com. They have two codes or one for both the gnome and the bench.
Anyone pre-ordered there?

They offered a code for the gnome.
I pre-ordered from there but have yet to receive my code.
So I don't know yet if it's the same one that we already have that worked for the planter and gnome.

Thank you havenlock sbut my code does not work for bench either  :(

Play.Com Uk side was just offering the Gnome It might be Playtrade other site of Play.com might of been offering the bench.

The bench was offered by xzone in CZ Republic... Anyone knows any Czech friends here?  ???

Here's how to get the bench:

Go here:  http://thesims2.ea.com/getcoolstuff/redeem_download.php?codeType=SP9BENCH

Enter this code: 5DGMAN8K

Viola!

That seems to give the Moroccan fountain thingy again. :(

It does.

Thx for trying to help. But the code let us download something we already have.
Just wonder if it is possible to use Java Script to test the code for the bench as it should be XYGMANXY, X is a number and Y is a letter, the two numbers may not be the same, neither may the two letters.

I'm sorry about that. I didn't realize it was the fountain until after I had posted. I thought that I had edited the post, too. I'm obviously not awesome!

hey, we still do not have got the bench!

i think the only way we'l find the bench if we run across someone from Czech Republic who ordered from http://www.xzone.cz/  :-\

I guess it'd be better to have Czech-speaking people to contact them. I tried contacting XZONE and some other Czech users at TheSims2.ea.com in English but so far none has replied me. Maybe they don't feel like sharing the contents, maybe they dun have the bench or maybe they dun understand English.....

We really need someone who can speak Czech to help.

Going back and looking at previous codes I think the 6th character does not have to be N.  I think it was assumed that it was because of the title of the game.  It looks like it could be a letter or a number  Seasons had a letter, whereas Apartment Life had a number in that spot.  It did seem like they were consistent though.  All the Seasons items had letters for the 6th character and all the Apartment Life bonuses had numbers.  (So probably it would be a letter)  I'm not great at explaining things, but I hope this makes sense. 

Hey, you guys reckon you might be just a tad OTT about this here bench?  ::)

But it's a fantamismo bench that we'lll all just die if we don't have!!!  ;D

It's all about collecting stuff. When collectors fail to complete their collections, they will all find themselves losers as their lives will be turned dull and monotonous. ;D

Well I think I've found the bench

I can also fonfirm that the bench from Simsky works, I installed with Clean Installer so I wouldn't get the lot, will you be decustomizing this one too SiuPang? Does anyone want me to upload the file so you don't need to get the lot?

*grab* Must have

Thanks for finding the item rednotdead. Here is the decostumized bench.

Fixes:

• Removed duplicate files.
• Fixed price, depreciation.
• Updated to Pets.
• Compressed with The Compressorizer!.
• Has its own Group Number.
• Changed category, find it under "Seating > Miscellaneous".

Get the other two items here (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,13733.msg391591.html#msg391591) (Gnome) and here (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,13733.msg391600.html#msg391600) (Planter).

Edit:
I just checked the bench in-game, it displays wrong shadows. Unfortunately I'm useless with shadows. Hopefully Lord Darcy or Havelock'll find a fix to these, please?.

Another edit:
Havelock fixed shadows and added missing red texture, thanks Havelock! Removed attachment, download his version below.

Thanks rednotdead and Richief.
Used Richiefs File and made additional fixes. Bench has now correct indoorshadows and all three recolors like the other parts of the Set.

• Reworked Shadowsmesh.
• Created Shadowstexture.
• Added missing red recolor .
• Made missing red Concrete Texture.

Sorry, I am a bit slow and can't catch up with some of the above points. What is "made missing red concrete texture"? Is there used to be a problematic concrete texture? :P

Originally, the bench only had two recolors; yellow and gray stone. Havelock made the missing red texture to match the Art Deco set (which comes in three colors: yellow, gray and red).
