in other note, sims 2 treasure finding may be coded to be like makin magic a little. or a little like the game of minesweeper huh?

being nice to people has it's benefits and being mean or nasty has no benefit and your only hurting yourself in the long run.
if anyone want to make an angel like mine here is the wings link (blue eyes not included) sorry

It's probably random sequence with a selection of cheapy catalogue items


It is a preset list in a STR. You can create a mod to change them. I'm sure there is a way to alter the odds of each item as well, just not looked for that resource. If anyone is interested I can create a build-your-own to decide what you want to have dug up.

If it's not a huge amount of work you'd rather not do, I think that would be really neat and appreciated by many out there. Lots of people play different kinds of hood, and I'm sure many storylines could be benefitted by a tailor-made set of dig-up items that fits that particular story.

I would love to dig up some of the CC dinosaur bones - will it be possible to add CC items to our "Build-your-own" lists, HL? (If you make this available, that is...) Love the idea!

I would download it for sure.

Back on topic, my sims rarely dig in their own yard. Only one of my sims busted a water pipe at the community park. Mostly my sims only dig while on vacation and generally on a beach lot. They usually dig up shells. One has dug up a vase, and 2 sims have dug up pearl earrings. Those poor male sims look so dumbfounded it wasn't funny.

I found maps in my home lot once, all three of them before setting out.

The drop off has been made. You've been warned.

@HugeLunatic I think you've just excited everyone now!
I'd love a tutorial on this. Imagine digging up a cooker or a guitar.
