Is there a way to add wall deco slots to any object? I know there is a base game shower where you can add a soap rack inside, and now there are also 2 wall deco slots on the CL animal barn where you can hang a pitchfork. (see image example) So is there a generic slot who will accept all kind of wall decor?  |

I guess I'm losing my mind :D I can't place the caddy inside the shower anymore, I used to do this all the time with the cheapest base gamne shower 'Post Modern Shower Stall' without any cheats, but as of now when I'm testing it I'm not getting it to work o_O

Oh that's strange! I'm sorry, I don't know of any generic slots.

I don't think there is one, but it was worth a try ) Would have been perfect for stuff like peg boards and hooks and stuff. : |

The wall deco slot really exists. If an item has the SlotTypeSet number 6FFE3FB4DB6337E0 (like most items from the Wall Decorations category), then you can place it in a special slot.  In the example below, I've placed the slot above the dresser at a height of 2.5m.  |

Ohhhh this is amazing! I'm gonna try it out, thank you! <3 So it's limited to 1 slot, correct? I can't make for example an empty clothingrack and add 4 slots to hang coats? :D

You should be able to add as many of these wall slots as you like to your object I would have thought, seeing as they behave like regular decorative slots only with a restriction on the type of object that can fit in them.

How to add a deco wall slot to an item
Studio cannot automatically add this slot as it does with general deco slots, so you need to do it manually. 1. Rig/Slots > Add a new slot. Enter the name _ctnm_WallDeco_1 for the first slot, _ctnm_WallDeco_2 for the second and so on. The slots will appear as purple pyramids.  2. Warehouse > Slot > ContainerSlots > Edit Items > Add.  2.1. BoneNameHash, LegacyHash and NameHash. The first way. Tools > Hash Generator. Paste _ctnm_WallDeco_1 into the Text field, copy the result from the FNV32 field and paste it into the fields of the ContainerSlots window.  The second way is in paragraph 2.4. 2.2. SlotDirectionLocked. 1 - an item cannot be rotated; 0 - an item can be rotated using < and >. 2.3. SlotTypeSet. Paste 40D8B9B353F01D50. 2.4. Transform. Rig > Text. Find the _ctnm_WallDeco_1 line, copy the value of AbsoluteTransform. You can also copy the NameHash here.  3. Repeat for _ctnm_WallDeco_2, etc., if necessary.  After you save and reload your package, the slots will look like turquoise cylinders. You can change their coordinates in the Rig/Slots tab. If you need to rotate slots, read this thread. Example package: WallDecoSlotExample.package How to make wall decor stick to these slotsWarehouse > Object Catalog > SlotTypeSet. Paste 6FFE3FB4DB6337E0 in the field. Repeat for all Object Catalog resources.

You would have to alter specific objects to make them sit in the wall slot, right? You would need to add 6FFE3FB4DB6337E0 into the SlotTypeSet field or the object will not interact with the wall slot? Am I understanding this correctly?
And will this method work for any object in the base game and/or any other expansion pack or stuff pack? Do you have to have Cottage Living to make this work? I don't have Cottage Living yet; I'm waiting for a 50% off sale.

You would need to add 6FFE3FB4DB6337E0 into the SlotTypeSet field or the object will not interact with the wall slot? Yes. But as I wrote before, most of the items in the Wall Decorations category have this SlotTypeSet number. You don't need CL, the shed uses a different slot. You can download my package and test the slots in the game right now. |

Okay, I think I get it (hopefully). So, wall decor and wall shelves work by "slotting" onto a wall? Sorry for all the questions.
