Inventory box
blackcat:
I love fruitbowl of awesomess, and so it gave me an idea.
What if we hade a box, that can hold sim invenoty in it, i mean anything that sim can hold in its inventory, so he would be able to transfere it into the box, in the transfere window, the one that we see when sim transferes produce or gives a gift.
This box whould have an infinite possibilities, and great inpact on the realism of the game.
Imagine, that you can store craftable items in boxes and store them in the warehouse, maybe sell them in stacks, like with fruitbowl.
Hold your sim photos in photobook on the shelf, hold your potions and parfume in the cabinet, your child toys in real toybox, put gifts in the boxes and put under the christmas tree.
All these with the appropriate mesh will look great in the game. which i'm more then willing to do.
The greatest, the ultimate purpose of this box would be to store unneeded things in it and store in basement or attic,
i hate to sell old things, cause this is not what we do in real life, but just putting them in basements, takes a lot of space.
Also when sim moves, he could pack things in boxes, and move with couple of boxes instead cuttering inventory.
I can't make this box, cause i'm afraid my knowlage of hacking is very, very far from awesome, but i will do recolors and meshes, for appropreate purposes.
I think to have one that stands onthe ground (dresser shape), one that is placable on any surface (box shape) , and one to hang on the wall (cabinet shape) will pretty much cover all the possibilites.
Also the options i might suggest:
restock shelves stright from the box
stack box one on the other
access to content of the box without taking the box out of sim inventory
i don't know if these are possible, but if they are, they would certanly be nice
P.S. sorry for my english.

I've thought the same thing. It sounds like a very advanced item; I'm sure Pescado could do it, but he's hard to inspire. Numenor is the best object modder out there, maybe he'd like the idea.

Well in Seasons we already have give gift, which allows giving anything from the inventory to another Sim.

I don't think it would be possible. Re: Fruitbowl of Awesomeness...
Quote from: J.M. Pescado
500 is the max. Increasing the limit beyond that risks overflow issues. Eggplants are $33, which means if you stored 1000 eggplants, the value of the bowl would be $33K, which would exceed the maximum integer size of the game, causing it to wrap around and go negative. Bad.

So I am guessing the same could be said for inventory boxes. Nice idea though.

If you want something similar to this idea of inventory boxes -- go to simwardrobe.com. Paladin has packing stations for produce and fish, which deliver neatly packed crates which can then be stored or sold as you wish.
