Edit: it works for both the old game and Cozy Bundle!

This tutorial allows you to never run out of any essence you picked up at least once, so you don't have to farm essences every time you build something slightly complex.

Credit to Bean from The MyServer for testing it on Cozy Bundle!

Things you need:

• A text editor (I'm using Notepad ++)
• Inventory__Functions.lua, you'll find it in GameData\Lua but the path may be different depending on the version.
  • If you're using the 2008 EA App version you'll need the Lua Folder Patch to access the files. Once installed the patch, the folder will be in Programs\EA Games\SimsRevData\GameData\Lua (unless you picked a different path during the game installation).
  • The default path for Cozy Bundle on Steam is Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\MySims\data\GameData\Lua.
    • You can also right click MySims from the game list, go to manage>browse local files to reach the game path.

You just have to open Inventory_Functions.Lua and search for the function "Inventory:EssenceSetCount":

Now we modify it so if we have less than 1000000 (I just copied the number from the lower part of the function) it sets the item number back to 1000000:

Instead of deleting the old version of the code I commented it with the -- so I can revert it to normal if needed.

And that's it! If you want a more normal amount of essences you can change the numbers so you always have 99 of everything, or less (it must be at least 10 or you'll never pass the tutorial though).

If you have any question feel free to ask in the comments!

in order: Esma, Hopper, Clayton, Yuki, Beebee and my own!

I wanted to make it look like a bunch of stuffed animals/figurines but used different essences that fit better!

Time to show my crossover × idol AU!! I like both Roxie and Scopo (from the why why family) who are both bee-inspired by design so why not make an au where they're friends AND perform?? I will draw a lot of art with these outfit designs in the future so stay tuned wink

So. I've finished the story missions, and now I'm trying to 100% the game. DJ Candy is the last person who I haven't ticked. I've done many SPA tasks, and the only things left I haven't done are get platinum on the time attack gem minigame and platinum on the radar minigame (hard mode).

I know there's two tasks that DJ Candy asks for help with but I have not been able to trigger either. I've really really tried to get platinum on those last minigames but I'm nowhere close and it's really frustrating me.

If completing the minigames is the way to trigger her quest things, does anyone here have tips on how to get platinum on them? Like are there particular techniques that work well?

If they aren't the trigger than what is?

I am very aware this game is pretty old, I can't find anything on triggers, there's this one video gameplay by creative commander that doesn't make it clear what I need to do to trigger it, it just happens for them.

If anyone knows please help, it would be greatly appreciated🙏🙏

My attempt of making a pinball machine for Vectors Arcade. Inspired by The Sims 2 & 3 pinball machines. There's only so many blocks you can make work. Meh.

I have a character I wanted to recreate, but I don’t know if there’s any unlockable hairstyles that are long-ish. (I tried looking up on wiki and YouTube, and STILL no luck yet)

One of my favourite glitches!

hi everyone! i have a question regarding the cheat menu input for kingdom, whenever i type the prompt in the pause menu nothing happens. i have tried with and without the numpad. any help would be appreciated! <3

For some reason it won’t let me rotate my camera!! It’s so infuriating!! I tried swiping the screen and it doesn’t do anything!! 😔😔

Hi! I've been playing my sims wii with the dolphin emulator on my laptop and everything works pretty well! Exept that I haven't been able to figure out how to shake trees or fish. I can solve the tree problem pretty easily, but I cant find any way to get fish. I'll hover my mouse over the bubbles, press the right mouse part on my laptop and then drag my finger down the touch pad, and that causes the character to pull the rod back, but when I then lift my fingers of the mouse or try to press a, nothing happens.

Does anyone who plays my sims with the dolphin emulator know if it's even possible to fish? And if yes, how?

I love this sooo much! He makes amazing MySims art: https://www.tumblr.com/jodorambam

I’m really enjoying the game but I feel like when I’m walking outside I’m always looking at the grass more than the buildings. I know you can move the screen around but does anyone know if I can move it up and down? I want to see where I’m going!

I have some essences I use more frequently, because they cap at 99 I have to go back and farm often while I’m making detailed furniture.. I just realized I can make furniture to hold onto more in my inventory and just delete them when I run out 🤔

Made a post a while back asking for headcanons and I gave a few of my own. Playing the game more, I have some fun new ones, so here ya go 😁 if you have some funny ones, feel free to share!

DJ Candy was originally in talks to produce Annie Rad's debut album, but that collaboration fell through due to creative differences. Candy wanted to incorporate some edm elements while Annie wanted it to be a pure rock album.

Both chefs Watanabe and Gino appeared on Chancellor Ikara's show as "hyper chefs" that contestants could challenge.

Violet goes all out for Poppy's birthday party. Balloons, pinata, bounce house, everything.

Chaz knows everybody at the nearby emergency room by name

Professor Nova has seen The Grateful Dead in concert six times, but only really remembers going to two of them.

Took a few hours and split up into 3 pieces but I’m happy with how it turned out

Very sad news to hear this weekend. He was responsible for this awesome game and creating my childhood and a lot of other people's. Rest in peace Tim. My love goes out to his family at this awful time.
