Curate, connect, and discover
Well, this would normally be the part where I just uploaded a picture of what it is and a link to the download, but I decided to bring back me going on verbose tirades, if not for just a tiny bit This game has been in my life for very long time, 20 years huh, next year the game will legally be allowed to drink in all countries, xD So what did I decide to make to celebrate this special location, something related to Iconic things like the freezer bunny, llamas, cowplants? No, I decided to celebrate what could have been.
This is an early screenshot for The Sims 2 prior to release, for a while, we knew that at a point in development, jewelry was added to the game, only for it to be completely dropped before the game went gold.
What we can see in this screenshot, is what I suspect to be where you would be able to buy said jewelry in a community lot, this being one of the two pictures where you can see said displays (The other picture having slightly worse visibility of said displays)
I've always wanted to see these displays in full glory, but considering how much we've digged out of the game files already, nothing related to these displays remains in the game files
So, I decided to try my luck to recreate them
I knew coming into this project that they would never bee a 1 for 1 recreation (proportions might be wrong, can't really see how the jewelry in the displays looks like in detail), so I decided to at least recreate the overall shape of the stands and fill them with jewelry that ended up shipping with Boy Voyage, and a bit from the Prism Art Studio jewelry display as well for good measure. I am happy with my work, but feel free to try and fill the stands in your own way, that was decidedly my worse struggle with this, just give me credits.
Welcome to the First Actual installment of the Coffeesmith project, this first part is all about (Mostly) Espresso Bars, and it is the core foundation this project was developed over:
So the options I have to offer are the Sims 3 Espresso Bar (with and without the counter) Nynaeve’s Espresso Bar that was converted by Mari, the Sims 4 Big Espresso Machine + Grinder, Fallout 4′s “The Sicilian” Espresso Machine and the Fallout 3 + New Vegas Coffee Urn, originally converted by ThatScaryChick, aside from the ones where credit was given, these were mostly converted by me, and are all working Espresso Bars (And compatible with Barista Plus *hint hint*)
The Sims 4 one comes with 7 Recolors for both the Machine and Grinder so you can mix and match
The Sims 3 Bar comes with 3 Recolor options for the Bar itself and 2 Recolor options for the machine
And the Fallout 4 one comes with two Recolor Options. Btw, the counterless ones are floating because they are based off of HugeLunatic’s Espresso Machine CEP, so please do put a counter beneath these if you don’t want a case of floating cups (but if you do, by all means go ahead). However, remember I said that mostly these were espresso bars? well, as a throw in extra, here, have some Regular espresso machines for home espresso:
Yeah, these are the same as the espresso bars, but these do require counters and don’t spawn any baristas (and the grinder is just deco), but while I was at it, it would be a shame to not make the regular home version of these.
the Nynaeve espresso and the coffee urn are slaved to the Deco Originals, which are included for convenience, the rest are slaved to the Espresso Bar versions.
At least two stations were cut from this, but it is because they are yet to be meshed, so expect 1.2 later down the line
But without further ado: Download Special Thanks: HugeLunatic for the Espresso Bar CEP and a lot of the Resource Material I checked for this, Fireflower, Frac and probably a lot of people from The Keep who gave me help and support for doing this.
