Coffee-Flavored Coffee (aka, Hot Beverages for Traditionalists)

(1/3) > >>

Ambular:
This is a mod for old fogies like me who wish to give our Sims JUST A CUP OF COFFEE DAMMIT.  (Or tea, or hot chocolate, or something similarly mundane.)  It changes the menu for the coffee maker and the choices on the tray to more traditional hot beverage fare.  Quite a few variations are included, and you can still score a cappuccino, espresso, etc. if you're lucky, but yeah...mainly just regular old coffee and tea with options for sugar, cream and the like.  A handful of "special blends" are thrown in just for fun.

The picture shows only a few of the options that the game will randomly generate.



It's based on ChannTL's More Beverages Mod, which has pretty much the opposite effect.  Seems to work fine with all three EP's.  Please report any problems.

Jessnova:
THIS is great.  I rolled my eyes when I saw the mod for Seventyeleven Million NEW ways to be Excessive with your Not-Coffee.  But I'd love to have my sims drink things that I can find in my own kitchen.

*BAA.*

Wish I'd been smert enough to think of this myself, but in my defense I've been a bit distracted lately.

I thought it was amusing and demonstrated a clear sense of totally misplaced priorities that EA clearly invested time into creating, debugging, and translating, dozens of "coffee"-esque beverages that are all COMPLETELY INDISTINGUISHABLE in-game and sims do not honestly give a damn one way or another.

Yes, it's purely flavor text (no pun intended.)  Which, on the one hand, is fairly pointless as you say, but on the other hand makes it extremely simple to change.

That simplicity is exactly why I got carried away writing a mod that adds seventyeleven million flavours of coffee in the first place.  ;) I'm glad you came up with a saner alternative.
