Picked Upload New Mesh

hello,
could you help me test this?

a stylish must-have for your witches and wizards

my thanks to besen, for another great translation
and to gromit, for helping me 'ground' the bloody thing

The info:
Poly's: 1024
Price: 500, Room rating: 7
Find in Decorative/Other
It is recolorable
Comes with catalogue entries for Dutch, German and French, everyone else gets English
Made with Blender and SimPE 0.40
Should work in both versions of the game

The cauldron has some basic animation. I'm sure someone with actual talent at recoloring can make the goo inside bubble more convincingly

Until then, I have two versions for you:
- black with poisonous green goo (default)
- silver with grisly red goo

The legals:
Feel free to recolour, hack, fiddle with this object and post your work. Just give a link to the original mesh in this thread and tell me all about it.
Please ask me before posting the actual mesh anywhere.
Please do not put this object in a downloadable lot, we don't want to scare unsuspecting players.

Known issues:
None.... yet :Slap:

Here's a pic of the recolour

See that weird thought bubble? That's what the cauldron looks like in the catalogue. And brown means black... Yes, I know

Allrighty, enjoy and feel free to comment or criticize.

You might want to study the resurrection machine and how the smoke works with that. This is something I'd like to hack, if I ever get the time. It's beautiful :D

I can get a sim to walk to it and do an animation with a sound, but as far as making smoke or something really kewl, probably not. The effects operands need alot of studying right now. But I know what I'd like to do with this. I'll see what I can do. I might give this one extra time, so I can do more with it :D

You can also use the "clean up" option and use the trash and such laying around on the lot as cauldron ingredients, like from Makin' Magic. I like this object alot. Obviously. Asia

Carrigon Firestarter Join Date: Sep 2004 Posts: 302 Thanks: 26 in 4 Posts	I'm working on it. I've already set it up so a sim will walk to it and it will play the ghost sound, like when ghosts haunt your house. I have the sim doing a small dance move, but I might change it. I'm having trouble getting other animations to work with this. It seems that if an animation just has a- instead of a2a, the thing won't work. So those podium animations are out for now. That's why I went with a dance move. It also won't play fx sounds, just more of a music type effect. It's very picky. Expect me to release something toward the end of the week, if not sooner. I need to put spells into it.

phat_man55 Instructor Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 400 Thanks: 299 in 2 Posts	OOOOOO, looks fantastic. You should make it so people can sturr it around. and put stuff in it. You could be able to make potions, like from the medicine machine (the simsanto inc. biotech station). that would be awsome. yay for my bad ideas :P

	Is the glass half empty or half full? Who cares? The glass is broken.
