WIP Update - February/March Projects (Patreon)
Content
I've been on hold with for the last hour because why should ANYTHING work like it's supposed to with Quickbooks. Anyway, I decided to mess around with a couple of things and outline my projects for next month. Technically I'm still working, but it's really hard to work with numbers while listening to their hold music so I thought I would be productive some other way ;)
I want to finish the Farmer's Market lot for Lot-Owners, although I think it may be another 2 month project. Instead of waiting until all the sub-stalls are done I'll finish the produce section in February, then plan to do the Fish & Flower one March. All the other ones I want to do will be added after that, but those two along with some other mods/edits should allow you to use the market until then.
I also realized a few weeks ago that in order to wrap up the Candle Crafting mod and skill and start any of the others, I need to get all those custom harvestables out so I'll be working on those as well. Now that I have the harvestable overrides done with no more errors (thank goodness!) I can use those to get the rest of my custom stuff out, although the issue with the dark plants indoors is still an issue :(
Once I'm done with the modular closet set this month I'm going to be focusing solely on the Farmers Market sets and Custom Harvestables. As much as I like to separate clutter, it has a tendency to slow down all my other projects. It's not to say I won't separate clutter at all, but I have some big life changes happening in about 6 months and I want to get all my major projects complete before then so that's where I'm going to focus my all my energy.
February:
Finish the other seasons of fruit/vegetable displays that customers can buy from; I'm going to make them individually and if I have time make them change their mesh with the seasons
Create a sack and crate that can be filled then stored in a sims inventory. I found a neat trick that allows the stuff in an inventory to be set for sale automatically when you pull it out, but I have to test it out to see if it works with this type of storage.
Fix the sink I made with the counters; I didn't realized the water animation was off
Recolor and release the bushel and pint baskets as display surfaces; Turn the JA stall box with the sign and food on top into a display too
Make the food stalls from City Living Wall-less or recolor them in wood paneling, and try to remesh the front of the stand into just a table; also make vendors $1 to hire, allow more stalls per lot, and make their needs decay slower so they stay for like 12 hours at a time. The stalls are going to be a big part of this lot as the vendors fill the lot with life like a real market
Wooden signs like almost all farmers markets have and maybe a couple more deco objects
Finish the Flea Market canopy for the yard sale area of the market; anyone will be able to place their tables under these and start a sale so it feels like a flea market!
I think that's it for now, you can get an idea of what I want it to look like in the pics below. If you have any last minute comments/suggestions please leave them in the comments section below!
