Hello!
I am creating an object with so far two geometry states. For better understanding I experiment with a trash can. So I started with two existing states (Upright, KnockedOver). I set 'KnockedOver' as default and I was able to change a 'KnockedOver' trash can (via 'Pick up' interaction) to state 'upright' ingame.
So I made a custom interaction for 'Pick up' which also worked out. But when I make a custom object state (only changing the instance of an existing object state tuning), the object do not show up ingame. Instead I get the 'Script Call Fail' message.
How can I solve this problem? It should be possible to create a custom object state, right?

Solved.
I forgot to list my object states in the main 'ObjectState'-tuning in '_values'.

Hi pixaratv
I've got the same issue with my custom object. I also got error in game when I added custom object states in state_triggers and states.
But I don't understand "the main 'ObjectState'-tuning in '_values".
Do you mind if I ask you a tutorial about how to solve this problem?
Thank you!

Hi!
I will demonstrate it with the trashcan (outdoor).
<I c="ObjectStateValue" i="object_state" m="objects.components.state" n="Trashcan_Outdoor_Upright" s="15356">
<U n="new_client_state">
<V n="geometry_state" t="apply_new_value">
<V n="apply_new_value" t="set_to_custom_value">
<T n="set_to_custom_value">Upright</T>
</V>
</V>
</U>
<V n="value" t="boolean" />
</I>
This is the code for a trashcan being in a normal state (default). It is an "ObjectStateValue"-Tuning.
Tuning ID: 15356 (Trashcan_Outdoor_Upright)
This tuning can be used as a template. Just change "Upright" to something else like "Custom1" and change the instance, in order to make it a custom tuning. Just create as many object states as you wish.
<I c="ObjectState" i="object_state" m="objects.components.state" n="Trashcan_Outdoor_State" s="15355">
<L n="_values">
<T>15354<!--Trashcan_Outdoor_Knocked_Over--></T>
<T>15356<!--Trashcan_Outdoor_Upright--></T>
</L>
</I>
Tuning ID: 15355 (Trashcan_Outdoor_State)
This is the main tuning. It is the "ObjectState"-tuning.
It is a list of your custom states. But only for these, which belong to a group. For example, state "Upright" and "KnockedOver" belong to a group, but the "Trash_Rummagable_CanRummage"-state is not part of the group.
Exampel: If you want to have a "normal" and "broken" object, it does not make sense to add another state like "in use" to the tuning too. For this you create a new "object_state"-tuning with the _values "in use" and "not in use" (after you have created two new custom states, which you add to the list).
This is all you need for your custom state to work. All you have to do now is to insert the states into the object tuning file. I do not know how "state_triggers" work. I only use the "client_states".
<L n="states">
<U>
<L n="client_states">
<U>
<T n="key">15354<!--Trashcan_Outdoor_Knocked_Over--></T>
</U>
<U>
<T n="key">15356<!--Trashcan_Outdoor_Upright--></T>
</U>
</L>
<V n="default_value" t="reference">
<T n="reference">15356<!--Trashcan_Outdoor_Upright--></T>
</V>
</U>
</L>
You just replace the keys with your custom states and set the new default state.
I hope I could help you!

Hi pixaratvTHANK YOU SO MUCH!! It did solve my problem!! Before I read your tutorial, I didn't know you have to list ObjectStateValue in ObjectState to make them work. I injected my custom ObjectStateValues into a custom ObjectState-tuning and added them in client_states and state_triggers. It works fine and no errors. Thank you! :D |

c821118I am glad that I could help you  Hello jimbooo1.) What do you mean by "The Sims 4 Installer"? Don't you mean the "sims4studio" installer? 2.) The "harming"-message is normal. Just ignore that. 3.) What do you mean by "be able to put my doors in my houses and stuff"? 4.) Please state more precisely when the Script Call Failure occurs.

pixaratv i am trying to add custom geometry states to something and hoping you can help with your infinate wisdom. you said "Just change "Upright" to something else like "Custom1" and change the instance, in order to make it a custom tuning. Just create as many object states as you wish." but how do you relate that name to the tuning file or to the geometry states in the LOD resources? i try changing the names in the lod resources and it just defaults to the hex value, not the actual name. thanks!

Hey ravasheen, it actually doesn't matter at all which names you take. You can still use the default state names, as long as they differ from one another (like default, broken, unbroken, open, closed). I suggest using the default EA names, because you can not add actual letters to the LOD resources (only hex). I do not know about you, but I find hex numbers really confusing. Therefore, it is easier to use something that is already exists like "Upright" and "Knocked Over". Nobody will notice it ingame. It is only visible for modder. |

Hi ravasheen, wow, that is incredible. It is so creative and complex. I will definitely check it out. Do you have a tumblr post about your creation I could reblog? |

Hey I'm actually having a similar problem. I'm trying to create a functional water bowl for pets. I tried adding another group to the pet food bowl to add the water shader but it doesn't let me import the mesh correctly (the water group just dissapears on import even though the cut numbers match). So I tried to clone the base game bird bath and add the pet bowl Geostates to it but now I get a script error. I also added the object tuning of the pet bowl so the number or states matches the object tuning. Does anyone know why this is happening? See error message in the spoiler below: {Spoiler}The Sims 4 Studio - Version 3.1.3.6
