Decorative Bag & Decorative Sack: Additional Surface Recolours
Purpose
To supply decorative cloth bags and sacks for use in pre-modern kitchens, storerooms and shops.

Contents
1) The Decorative Bag of Loot and the Decorative Sack of Loot are found in the Decorative/Miscellaneous section of the catalogue at a price of §460 for the Bag and §660 for the Sack. Viewing or Critiquing either of these objects will increase Creativity skill and FreeTime Arts & Crafts enthusiasm.
For recolouring purposes the Deco Bag is the master. However the Deco Sack is configured as a secondary master so that the Bag is not required in the Downloads folder for the Sack to work.

2) Twenty-three Bag & Sack Surface Recolours are included:
Black, Blue Coarse, Blue Midnight, Blue Slate, Brown, Burlap Light, Burlap Old, Gold, Green Coarse, Green Fern, Green Mrytle, Grey Coarse, Grey Ribbed, Invisible (built-in), Olive, Red Ruby, Red Rust, Red Smooth, Russet, Standard (built-in default), Teal, White, Yellow Drab
3) Ten Bag & Sack Cord Recolours are also supplied:
Black, Blue Midnight, Brown, Green Fern, Green Myrtle, Invisible (built-in), Red Ruby, Red Rust, Standard (built-in default), Yellow Drab



Autonomous viewing of decorative objects can be quite annoying, so Sims will not autonomously view the decorative bag or sack unless a player directs a Sim to do so. However, once you ask a Sim to View or Critique a bag or sack, that object may then be viewed autonomously by any other Sim on the lot. If no Sim views the bag or sack for 30 to 36 game hours, the object will no longer be viewable autonomously. Alternately, the Reset Autonomy button can be used to disable autonomous viewing at any time.
For very serious Sims - those with a Playful score of one or less - a "Critique" option will appear instead of "View". If the object is viewed or critiqued enough an "Easter egg" will be revealed.
Critiquing or Viewing increases Fun and builds Creativity Skill at a rate of 2/3 that of the Painting Easel. Once Fun is maximized the Sim will stop Viewing the object. Note that the more serious Sims will spend longer with a Viewable object than fun lovers.
If FreeTime, or Apartment Life is installed, critiquing or viewing will increase Arts & Crafts Enthusiasm, and "View Many" will also be available, even on residential lots ("View Many" causes Sims to browse several decorative objects, one after the other). If the "View Many" Anywhere patch is installed, then the appreciation of these objects will be combined with that of other decor. Sophie-David viewable objects will typically be favoured by Sims, because any time spent with EA's decorative objects will not be skill building. "View Many" is particularly useful for highly playful Sims because they tend to have short attention spans.
Selecting "View Many" on an object will not enable or affect autonomous viewing. However, an object which is already enabled for autonomous viewing is also enabled for autonomous "View Many".
