TS3 World Adventures - Chinese Chopsticks Longer & Texture Replacement Mod

Default Replacement

New custom mesh and 5 textures to replace EA default chopsticks.

Reason why I made the change:

Chopsticks portrayed in The Sims 3 World Adventures are too short. Shang Simla is China world, therefore chopsticks in-game should be portrayed as Chinese chopsticks, which are the longest compared to Japanese and Korean chopsticks.
More info about difference between Chinese, Japanese, Korean chopsticks

EA Default Chopsticks. Short, too boxy and have pixelated & stretched texture of "random Simlish Chinese writing".




福 ( Fú ) means happiness, luck, blessing, good fortune.

龙 ( Lóng ) Chinese Dragon symbolizes gods who control rain, weather, and seasons; kind, benevolent, powerful, who bring luck and prosperity.

Peacock symbolizes "grow old together" and will bring harmony to the couple and a long-lasting marriage.


The modded textures:

1. FuZi_Mu ---> Hanzi writing "Fú" with wooden texture.



2. BaiNianHaoHe ---> Peacocks with Hanzi writing "BaiNianHaoHe" / 【百年好合】 means "To bless this unison with harmony that would last over hundred years".

In short, wishing the couple everlasting eternal love.

Recommended for your couple Sims and especially have just married.



3. Long_HuangSe ---> Yellow colour and has Chinese dragon image with Hanzi writing "Lóng".



4. FuZi_HeiSe ---> Hanzi writing "Fú" with black colour.



5. FuZi_HongSe ---> Hanzi writing "Fú" with red colour.



This is custom 3D mesh I created by myself. The bottom end of chopsticks has round shape and upper end has rectangle shape, just like actual KuaiZi (Chinese chopsticks) in real life.

Polycount: 64



I increased the size of texture to 1024 pixels. You can see the details on the chopsticks clearly.



⚠️ Disclaimer: The mod doesn't alter the animation in-game. If you see the chopsticks going through Sim's hand, you should ask that to EA employees why they made the default chopsticks position and animation like that. Default EA The Sims 3 chopsticks are already going through the Sim's hand in the game.

Requirement: World Adventures Expansion Pack Made on patch 1.67. It should be worked on patch 1.69.

Sim must have Asian trait to have chopsticks while eating.

Tips to unlock Asian trait: NRaas > Master Controller > (Sim) > Advanced > Traits > Change (Master Controller Cheats add-on module required)

This package will be replacing the default EA, so you have to choose one. Installing more than one default replacement will cause conflict.

As usual, install one of these packages on Package folder. You can safely delete the package if you no longer want to use the default replacement.
