Hello!

Are you also tired of that ugly money gifting animation in The Sims 4?
Seriously…
WHO gives money in a huge gift box???

And what if I want to, for example, give a bribe?
Quietly...Subtly...
In a big box.
Lol.

So… here’s my new mod.

What this mod does

🔹 Replaces the default Simoleon gifting animation
Instead of a giant gift box, your Sim will take out the money and hand it directly to another Sim, as shown in the screenshots.

🔹 Recipient reactions are preserved
The receiving Sim can react positively…
…or negatively 😌

I slightly adjusted the reaction chances, because let’s be honest.

We’re not always happy about receiving 100 §, but we’re almost always happy about 5000 § 😉

🔹 Buffs are preserved
Both Sims receive the standard EA buffs for giving and receiving gifts.
(In the future, I plan to tweak or expand these buffs.)

🔹 Adds small money amounts: 5 / 25 / 50 Simoleons
Finally, we can properly give pocket money to children or just hand over a small amount without feeling ridiculous.

Installation

Simply place the file into your Mods folder.
Make sure XML Injector is installed and up to date.

Compatibility

Since this mod overrides the in-game money gifting animation, it will conflict with any other mod that does the same thing.
At the time of release, I am not aware of any other mods that replace this animation.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered making one myself 😉

Conflicts

This mod will conflict with any mod that overrides the following EA resources:

si_Touching_GiveGift_Money_Amount1 (182062)

si_Touching_GiveGift_Money_Amount2 (182063)

si_Touching_GiveGift_Money_Amount3 (182064)
