Maxis "Lost & Found" #26
LARGE FLORAL CENTERPIECE
(Nightlife REQUIRED!)

Thanks to Havelock for this finding.

This is a decorative Floral Centerpiece that was hidden in the Nightlife EP.
It has never been visible in the catalog, but it could be seen in game (in the "Fresh Rush Grocery", Downtown). Afterwards, when OFB was released, the Floral Centerpiece was completely wiped off; nowadays, the original centerpiece can be seen in the Fresh Rush Grocery only by users that don't have any newer EP than NL, or using the "Up2NL" game from the BaseGameStarter.

Maxis left in the game packages not only the mesh, but also the textures for 4 different flowers and 5 different vases (well, the black vase is quite ugly, but don't blame me

).
I've rebuilt the missing parts of the package, so to make this object and its recolours appear in the catalogue in all their glory

.

You will find it in: Buy Mode -> Decorative -> Plants

NOTE: the original object was 2-tile wide; I reduced it to 1 tile only, and therefore if you put it near a wall, the most external leaves might intersect the wall; anyway, the peculiar shape of this flower arrangements suggest to place it along the walls, not perpendicular to it, so no graphical glitch should arise.

Important: Regardless the compatibility icons you may find near the download link, the NIGHTLIFE expansion pack is REQUIRED!

Paradoxe Test Subject Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 35	Thanks a lot , Numenor. I saw this one once on TSR and was disgusted that they made it paying! Basicaly, it's a Maxis product, and TSR didn't made any recoloration.. That's why, I thank you, Numenor for having not only re-create this and made it free but also for all things you and the Mts2 staff have created/found/fixed/recolrated/shared for us. It's very appreciated.

Numenor Original Poster The ModFather Join Date: Sep 2004 Posts: 8,400 Thanks: 198268 in 176 Posts View My Journal	Yes, very odd... It's barely visible but I can clearly see it in your screenshot... I checked the texture: all the branches use the same portion of the texture, so I guess that it's just a matter of light reflection; none of the screenshots I took in my game before posting shows this glitch... Thanks for reporting, though
