Who has the Dine Out Expansion Pack? Need help for a Mod.
Hello Sims Players!
I'm working on a mod and need some info about the Dine Out Pack, as I don't have it myself. I know of a feature in this pack that will make it possible to make your own custom signs with emy signs made by EA and some ?? decals ?? to place onto them.
How does this work? Is it just an emty sign where all sorts of decals will snap onto just like on walls or are these a whole new kind of objects? Working on some decals right now and I want to know if they work with those emty signs too.
So let me know/show how those things work right here in this thread or maybe I will contact you by PM to test some things out for me if you have the Dine Out EP Hope someone can help!
Greetings, Bakie

I haven't given them a closer look in s4s but the empty signs are simple flat objects classified as sculptures or wall-sculptures respectively. The floor and flat-wall sign are 3 squares wide, the one that sticks out from the wall is shorter. The dine out sign-decals snap onto them all the other decals however don't. So I assume there is something special about them as well as to the sign-decals - but I wouldn't know how to find out what. Also the sign-decals glow in the dark, so in addition to a diffuse they require a specular which defines which areas of the decal are glowing and which are not. I hope this was at least a little helpful. If you have any other questions I'll try to answer them, however I am slightly busy at the moment, so it might take me a while to reply.

anskaThank you very much for the info. Now I know they're not just simple decals, so I can change my own decal description, that they won't work for the Dine Out Signs. Maybe I can make them Dine Out compatibel later. But it's clear to me that they are a whole new kind of objects as there aren't any other objects that snap together like that. So thanks for the info! I just need to buy that pack too sometime
