I would like a Smoking Mod - Can it be done?
jonas:
That pony bit was fuckin' awesome.
Alright, onto the post.
First, didn't really intend to come off one way or the other with my posts regarding the "glamorous" side of smoking. Was I being funny? Yup, I'm always throwing humor into my posts. However, I used those examples as classic stereotypes because that's how I see them getting used in my game. So there's that... However, I DO think the cigarette vastly improves the image of Butterfly shirt trailer woman up there. If she would only move her hand over that mustache... :D
But on to the nitty gritty:
@ Watersmoon: I would quote your whole post as it's filled with great ideas. The power of moodlets! Using moodlets to create the addiction, the smell, all the aspects you mention with pot and smoking are freakin' perfect for this sort of mod. I keep forgetting moodlets when thinking about possibilities and it's really all about them now. Basically everything you thought of should be a part of this mod.
I'm thinking that new accessories aren't far away since there is already some simple clothing alteration going on. I'm sure people are dying to get some better accessories in their game like maybe rings on the other hand?? So hopefully, the first element of this mod won't be too far off. I want to make the objects myself if I can, but I don't know anything about 3d creation yet or even what program I'll need to learn about.
Also, what goes into pulling already in-game animations out for objects? Is there generally a lot of coding required for that?

And yes, I admit I am a little over-sensitive on this issue as 4 months ago I quit after 30 years of being a heavy smoker.
Yay for Kyna.

In other news, I want a pony.
I quit 3 weeks ago after 19 years. Wonder if that's why I finally became confrontational enough to post here. ;D
There's a fine line connecting the facts that I smoked Camels and that I quit cold-Turkey.
Camels trump ponies. I want a camel.

If you only quit 3 weeks ago, I don't doubt it at all.

Quitting is on my list of "things I really need to do but don't actually have the willpower to accomplish."
I never had this fancy animated smoking pack from Sims 2 ya'll are talking about. All I had were some clothing accessory cigarettes. I am jealous. I love the idea of moodlets though. I think sore throat is a little silly.. if you got a bad case of that when you were first smoking, we'd have many less smokers yet. I propose the first moodlet be "Nicotine Euphoria" (a positive bonus); that little happy feeling fresh lungs get when they first hit. Nice little head high there. It's how they get you. Then after a while, this would stop appearing entirely; no bonus. But you have to keep smoking. If you stop, then you get the "Nicotine Fiend" negative moodlet. You need a cigarette, or you get angry, grouchy and sad. I think, after that, and after a length of time has passed -- say a sim month, who knows -- the "sore throat" would be more viable. Or Black Lungs.
I would buy this mod for 56,185,166 ZWD.
But, I would also be content with a little ciggy, joint, and swisher sweet clothing accessory so I can at least take awesome looking screenshots.
Oh by the way Jonas, I thought your initial post was hilariously worded.
Lorelei:
Katy from the now defunct PCSims (?) made the smokable cigarettes. The files are probably still floating around if you still play TS2.
