Updated 4th of June '25
Fixed Algae Objects
It turned out that the Get Together Algae Clump as well as the Jungle Adventures Fresh Algae Scum, were still hovering a slightly bit above the water surface. This causes other objects that were placed onto them, like my Animated Base Game Frogs or my Animated (Log) Turtle to partly disappear. This has now been fixed.
Extra Recolors for two Lily Pad objects
The Base Game's Large Lily Pad & A Smattering of Lily Pads have received 7 extra recolors.
This will make it possible to use these in combination with other lily pads available in game too. The Large Lily Pad is especially useful if you want to add more frogs to your pond by only adding one single lily pad.
As the Smattering of lily pads is made out of exact the same texture, I thought it will come in handy if I add the same kind of recolors to this object too.
Extra Object Added + Fixed
My original pack contained 11 objects, with this update I've added a 12th object.
Now also the Waterlilies in Bloom object can be found in this pack.
====================================
About the Fixed Pond Objects Pack:
There're a few things I don't understand about pond objects.
First of all, why can't you place items like water reeds, lily pads and algae near pond edges? Even with the MOO cheat activated, those items start to float in mid-air.. Why?
Then when looking at for example the lily pads, why are they allowed on ocean water surfaces and water reeds aren't?
And why can you place lily pads, water reeds and swans in swimming pools but the bog log, the one with the turtle, can't?
This all just doesn't make any sense. So that's why I've fixed all of this and more with this mod pack. :)
Placement:
- All Water Reeds, Lily Pads, Algae and the Bog Log are now placeable near pond edges without floating in mid-air.
- The Log Bog can now also be placed on water surfaces of fountains and swimming pools.
- The Log Bog and all Water Reeds can now also be placed on ocean water surfaces.
- For all: They can also be placed near and right through other objects, for a more natural look.
Footprints:
I've changed the footprint for the following two objects to better fit the mesh itself.
- Smattering of Lily Pads from a 2x2 tiles footprint to a 1 tile footprint.
- Bog Log from a 2x2 tiles footprint to a 1x2 tiles footprint.
