They mysteriously disappeared years ago; with this fix the old boxes have returned.
What I've done:
*Added fishingChest data to the Fishing XML taken from the GameplayData.package.
*Successfully tested this mod with Sims in two worlds, each Sim had different traits and fishing skill levels (levels 0 through 10).
Extra:
I've included a second version that includes the fishingChest data, plus it doubles the default values found in the GameplayData.package.
The various fish and global spawners default values for reeling in a Box are as follows: 1, 2, 3, 10.
This second version doubles the values to: 2, 4, 6, 20.
Versions:
NanaBx3_fishingBoxChest_Fix (no values were changed, only added data)
NanaBx3_fishingBoxChest_IncreasedChanceFix (same as above, plus values doubled)
Use only one at a time!
These mods are Base Game compatible, with additional box items if you have World Adventures installed.
Conflicts:
These are XML Tuning mods that will conflict with any other mod that uses - Fishing XML 0x90142107481DE889
Compatibility:
Made with patch 1.67
Extract the file and add it to your Mods > Packages folder.
