This is an overhaul of the Chalice of Days, originally extracted from Castaway Stories by Pescado. Elders can drink from the Chalice and have a chance to be restored to the first day of the Adult life stage. I made a number of changes to the original item and you cannot have both in your game, so if you have cs_holygrail in your downloads folder, please remove it before adding my version.

Model Changes
My version has a smaller, one-tile mesh and I adjusted the animation accordingly.

My husband and I built the altar top on top of a Jungle Adventure pedestal. I also remodelled the chalice, and my husband painted the potion texture.

The pedestal base comes in the six colours above, custom recolours of the Jungle Adventure version with baked in shadows for the top. The details on top with the tiles and the sun glyph are repository linked to my default replacement of the Temple of Jumbok IV, so that is required.

LordCrumps' shadow file is also required (but not included, because it's included with the default replacements).

Functional Changes
In addition to the changes to the model, I also made some changes to the functioning of the item. Easy Inventory Check and Smarter EP Check are both required.
  • Sims will not change into their underwear after returning to the adult age stage.
  • When de-aging, Sims will do the animations for becoming an adult instead of becoming an elder.
  • Sims will gain a memory of drinking from the chalice. This is optional - the memories are in separate packages so you can choose not to play with those.
  • Sims who have drunk from the chalice before are likely to have their greed punished if they try again. You can edit the success chance and whether failure is deadly in the tuning BCON.
  • Sims with the lucky or unlucky trait will have an adjusted chance of success. This can also be edited in the tuning BCON. If you don't play with traits, you don't need to do anything.

Languages
This mod has been translated into:
  • French
  • Italian
  • Portuguese (European)
  • Spanish

If your language isn't listed above, you will experience blank messages when the Sim drinks from the Chalice because the success and failure messages haven't been translated. If you want to contribute to this mod, I'd be delighted if you translated it into your mother tongue. Here's a little tutorial on mod translation. For this one, you will need to translate the text list called Dialog Strings in the Chalice of Days package, and the Catalogue Description in the two memory packages.

Known Issues
The Sim gets whatever hair colour is linked to grey for their hairstyle, so this might not be their natural hair colour. You can, of course, change it with a mirror as usual straight afterwards.
