CentJewelEnerg

Created by Rei Wanderley

CentJewelEnerg is a gameplay mod for The Sims 4: Crystal Creations Stuff that expands the jewelry energy and quality systems.

The mod connects both the energy duration and the final quality of crafted jewelry to the Gemology skill level of the Sim who created it.

Beginner jewelers create jewelry with shorter energy cycles and a higher chance of poor quality, while experienced jewelers can create long-lasting Excellent or Masterpiece jewelry.

Main Features

• Jewelry energy duration based on the creator’s Gemology level
• Automatic jewelry quality based on Gemology skill
• Support for jewelry placed in the world
• Support for jewelry stored in Sim inventories
• Support for jewelry currently worn by Sims
• Persistent energy cycles after saving and reloading
• Persistent energy cycles when traveling between lots
• Persistent quality results
• Existing jewelry protection
• Separate data for each save slot
• No external library required

Energy Duration

When a jewelry item becomes fully charged, CentJewelEnerg registers a custom energy cycle based on the Gemology level of the original creator.

• Level 0: 2 Sim days
• Level 1: 3 Sim days
• Level 2: 4 Sim days
• Level 3: 10 Sim days
• Level 4: 12 Sim days
• Level 5: 14 Sim days
• Level 6: 20 Sim days
• Level 7: 25 Sim days
• Level 8: 90 Sim days
• Level 9: 100 Sim days
• Level 10: 1 Sim year, equivalent to 365 Sim days

During the active cycle, the jewelry remains fully charged.

The creator’s Gemology level is recorded when the energy cycle begins. If the Sim increases their skill later, the current cycle will not change. The new skill level will be used the next time the jewelry is charged.

Automatic Jewelry Quality

Every newly crafted jewelry item receives one automatic quality roll based on the creator’s Gemology level.

• Level 0: 0% Masterpiece, 10% Excellent, 90% Poor
• Level 1: 0% Masterpiece, 15% Excellent, 85% Poor
• Level 2: 1% Masterpiece, 20% Excellent, 79% Poor
• Level 3: 2% Masterpiece, 28% Excellent, 70% Poor
• Level 4: 5% Masterpiece, 35% Excellent, 60% Poor
• Level 5: 10% Masterpiece, 45% Excellent, 45% Poor
• Level 6: 20% Masterpiece, 50% Excellent, 30% Poor
• Level 7: 35% Masterpiece, 50% Excellent, 15% Poor
• Level 8: 50% Masterpiece, 45% Excellent, 5% Poor
• Level 9: 65% Masterpiece, 33% Excellent, 2% Poor
• Level 10: 80% Masterpiece, 19% Excellent, 1% Poor

Each jewelry item receives only one quality roll. The result is saved and will not be rerolled after saving, reloading, or traveling.

Existing Jewelry Protection

When CentJewelEnerg is initialized for the first time, jewelry that already exists in the save is registered as existing content.

This prevents previously created jewelry from having its quality unexpectedly changed.

Only newly detected jewelry will use the automatic quality system.

Save and Travel Persistence

CentJewelEnerg preserves:

• Active energy cycles
• Remaining energy duration
• Creator information
• Gemology skill level
• Quality rolls
• Applied quality results
• Existing jewelry protection status

The system continues working after:

• Saving and reloading
• Returning to the main menu
• Traveling between lots
• Moving jewelry between inventories
• Wearing or removing jewelry

Requirements

• The Sims 4
• Crystal Creations Stuff
• Script Mods enabled

No XML Injector, Lot 51 Core Library, or other external dependency is required.

Installation

1. Remove all previous versions of CentJewelEnerg.
2. Place the .ts4script file inside your Mods folder.
3. Do not place the file more than one subfolder deep.
4. Delete localthumbcache.package.
5. Start the game and confirm that Script Mods are enabled.

Players updating from an older version should keep the existing CentJewelEnerg data folder so active energy cycles and quality results are preserved.

Compatibility

CentJewelEnerg uses the native jewelry, crafting, Gemology, quality, and Crystal Charge systems from Crystal Creations Stuff.

Mods that completely replace the same jewelry quality states or Crystal Charge systems may conflict.
