Oh man I've been wondering when someone would make something to freeze individual motives, I missed the one I had in Sims 2. So handy. Thanks!

It doesn't show up for me..

maybe its because i have a very early patch of the game? whenever i patch my game crashes, so i left it at one of the first patches..

and i don't have WA..

Hmmmm.... that's too bad. I hope it's the patch level and not that it needs WA... hopefully someone can chime in if they get it to work without WA and a more current patch level.

Thank you! I am so happy to have found this. I used the snapdragons in Sims 2 all the time for babies and toddlers.

Have a bright platinum diamond day!

I have Sims3, Wa and Loft installed with the latest patches. I found the plant and placed it on the table. When I click on it, nothing happens. Do I have to do something special? I even tried testingcheatsenabled true, but still the plant isn't giving me the options stated.
thanks

Looseal, you don't need testingcheatsenabled to use this. There are two possibilities:

1) If you don't get any menu options, even the "view" menu option that decorative items usually have, then you've got a problem with your modding framework and your game isn't loading the custom code that is packaged with the item. Make sure you followed all the instructions here .

2) If you get the normal "view" but don't get the other menu options, you probably placed the normal orchids that are available without this mod. Make sure you get ones that say "Dolphin's Magic Orchids" and cost $0, not the normal ones that come with the game that you have to pay for.

Thank you so very much for the Magic Orchids, My Sims use them all the time and setup under various circumstances within their house, I no longer need to use console cheats to allow my Sims to achieve their L10 skills, especially Charisma and the ability to hosting Awesome parties!

cheers Garth

Can you make it shows the special effect (I don't know what it called) when the orchid is working (like in TS2: OFB). Thank you.

Yes it works very well. I'm running it on WA 2.5 HEL 3.1 The only small issue is with the Energy Gain if it is set to [on] the rest of the stats won't go up but as soon as I flip it [off] and then back [on] all my stats including energy works fine for an unknown amount of time... Not a big issue... Thanks

@anak_ponti you can tell that it is on if you noticed 3 of the +10 Mood Buffs "Love Is In The Air", "Neuronic Synergy" and "Totally Mellow" They should appear with your other Mood Bonus in a small window...?

Yes, I already know that. Thank you.
What I want is the flower shows some special effect like sparkling seed in air around the flower (if you have OFB, you must be know that). I just want to ask if it is possible to make. If it is not possible, it's alright. Thank you again.

Seam to be having the same problem as Hak. Apparently, the first one I place in a household works, the rest aren't.

Also, might be a side but, but when I place one on a pedestal, I only get the view option and none of the rest. I take the same one and put it on the floor next to the pedestal, I get the full options menu (but it still doesn't work. It wasn't the first one I placed in the house.)

I'm having serious problems with this object. If it's turned on, no services will come to my house if I call.

Now I haven't tested it if an emergency just happens, so I don't know if someone would come then. Also the plant is in the room that is has the front door, so I'm curious to see if I move it will that affect this. I'm going to try and do more testing with it.

But my problem still remains, if I have this object on my maid, babysitter, even the police or firefighters won't come if called.
