TS3 World Adventures - Mooncakes & Mooncake Machine Maker Remastered: Mooncake Mesh & Texture with Enhanced Graphics & Enabled to Buy Mode & Renamed Mod (All Languages) & Icons Replacement Mod

D E F A U L T R E P L A C E M E N T

New custom Mooncake mesh & texture, to replace EA's "Fortune Cookies" machine maker and edible cake taken from machine maker with working Geostates & animation

EA's graphics from 512x512 with noise was enhanced to 1024x1024 with less noise and adding Simlish Hanzi to replace EA's "bad handwriting" texture on the machine maker. Click this picture below to enlarge.

Enabled to Buy Mode (Appliances > Miscellaneous Appliances), for easy access no need to type cheat "Buydebug" mode ever again.

STBL Renamed mod, from "Fortune Cookies" to "Mooncakes" translated to all languages.

月餅（Yuèbǐng）= Moon Cake

ⓘ For language translations except Chinese, I use online translator to change word "Fortune Cookies" ---> "Mooncakes" & "Mooncake" depending on singular and plural context. Feel free to correct in comment section if you feel the translation and the grammar is wrong or I accidentally deleted other word.

Icons changed from EA's Fortune Cookies to Mooncake

Reason why I made the change:

Because Shang Simla is taking place in China, not American Chinatown, thus the portrayal of the cookies should be authentic of actual China in real life, not American cookies that are foreign to actual Chinese people. Fortune Cookies are U.S.A.- made cookies: American invention originating in California. History of Fortune Cookies (source: fancyfortunecookies.com) Mooncakes are cakes originated from China, dates back over 3,000 years to ancient China. Mooncakes are a traditional treat during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

Mooncakes are the must-eat Mid-Autumn food in China. They are a traditional Chinese pastry. Their round shape and sweet flavor symbolize completeness and sweetness. At the Mid-Autumn Festival, people eat mooncakes together with family, or present mooncakes to relatives or friends, to express their love and best wishes. Mooncakes are usually eaten after dinner while admiring the moon. History of Mooncakes in China... (source: chinahighlights.com) Fortune Cookies are made in USA and only exist in USA, but mistaken by USA people themselves as "Chinese" cookies just because the cookies are sold in American Chinese restaurant in USA. We actual Chinese live on our country have never seen Fortune Cookies, as we only know the presence of those cookies in Hollywood (U.S.A.) movies. Not just culture inaccuracy, I enabled this machine maker in Buy Mode section for easy access because this item must have been forgotten in the corner and only been played once when the player visit Shang Simla.

Colour & Presets: Same as original EA's: 3 Presets & original EA's Fortune Cookies Machine Maker colour channels.

How to Change Default EA's Fortune Cookies to Mooncake in Shang Simla world.

Fortune Cookies maker in Shang Simla doesn't automatically change to Mooncake due to different coding in-game.

❗You must buy Mooncake Machine Maker from Buy Mode (Appliances > Miscellaneous Appliances) to load the texture first, then travel to Shang Simla world, do "Reset Textures" using Nraas' Debug Enabler.

You need to install Nraas' Debug Enabler (Core mod by Twallan) in order to work correctly ❗

Follow these steps to reset textures:

Click on the Fortune Cookies Maker > Nraas > Debug Enabler > Options: Lucky Factory Mooncake Maker > Object… > Reset Textures > (Choose one) All Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Appliances.FortuneCookieMaker or This Object

Requirement: World Adventures Expansion Pack

As usual, install one of these packages on Package folder. You can safely delete the package if you no longer want to use the default replacement.

Here is compilation of fixes for Shang Simla, China World in The Sims 3 World Adventures, by now today 5 April 2025.

I made these mods to fix inaccuracies of Chinese culture that the developer - Electronic Arts - made. Without getting paid or compensation at all.

DEFAULT REPLACEMENT:

► Shang Simla Forbidden City Icon MOD

► Red To Gold Colour Mod for TS3 World Adventures EP's “FountainAsia2x2″

(All mods above need World Adventures Expansion Pack to work)

BUY MODE:

► Chopsticks Porcelain Storage

I really love your cc, thank you for making them. Quick question though, are the ones on your abandoned blog on your tumblr too, or should I go through those as well to see your full catalogue?

I just came home, hi @jokusmaxismatch and thank you for your support & polite comment! If you mean my blogger https://thebleedingwoodland.blogspot.com

It was definitely abandoned, hahaha. I left Blogger in year 2023 due to the massive "hidden" posts by Blogspot, they were put back to draft and I cannot post again. Not sure why my CC posts were marked as Spam. That is out of my control. My posts did not contain any illegal or adult content... Dinnerware, chicken nuggets also got hidden by Blogspot. I uploaded the CC link on Tumblr straight to Simfileshare.

Better see my posts on Tumblr to see all my CC posts. Because I posted on Tumblr to redirect to Blogger.

Tags for old The Sims 2 CC, The Sims 3 & The Sims 4 CC are here on pinned post:

Remember that some CC posts are not in the tag despite I tagged the posts properly. You can search on Archive, scroll the year or month:

Have fun, happy Simming and have a nice day!

TS3 - 3 STBL Renamed Mods "Asian" --> "Chinese", "Endowments" --> "Breasts", "Goopy Carbonara" ---> "Carbonara"

These 3 STBL Renamed Mods are separated, so you can choose 1 / 2 / all 3 of them. All these mods were tested and working well with each other Mods and with my previous STBL Renamed Mods in Spring Rolls and Mooncake Machine Maker.

I wondered why nobody made these renamed mods for almost 16 years since The Sims has been released from year 2009, therefore I finally made these mods by my own.

1. "Asian" --> "Chinese"

Reason why I made the change:

"Asian" term is too broad. Asia is one big continent, consists of 48 countries. Southeast Asians, South Asians, Western Asians do not eat using chopsticks and do not have traditional architecture like East Asians. East Asians themselves such as Japan and Korea have different culture and architecture from China. If the developer of this game wanted to point one country, Shang Simla, then it should be China / Chinese only. It is like calling Champs Les Sims "European" and Al Simhara "African". Champs Les Sims is called "French" and Al Simhara "Egyptian", why Shang Simla is called "Asian", not "Chinese" instead?

This mod changed the name of Asian in Game Tip, Trait, Tourist, object name of building items such as bridge and rocks that you can find in CAW (Create-A-World) for building World, but I cannot run the application. Please check the name change if you can run CAW application.

Languages are in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean only.

To be honest I am tired. If you wanted to translate to your language, you can do it by open this .package file on EasySTBLManager by (†) CmarNYC, click "Copy to Missing" > Edit to your language> Save the .package. > Open .package in s3pe > Delete unnecessary language strings if you want.

2. "Endowments" --> "Breasts"

Reason why I made the change:

This text keeps appearing many times on loading screen, so I had to change the word because the word "Endowments" itself is too forced, to censor the name of adult female human body part, in this video game with Teen Rating. Breasts are scientifically & biologically correct term to call upper part of female human body made of fat with mammary glands to give milk to her baby, and they are not genitalia. As they started to develop since young girls were pre-teen, which are the target demographic of The Sims game itself, and adult women themselves wanting to adjust both their own real life breasts and their Sims' breasts, so nothing sexual or taboo here.

Languages: All Languages. (Using online translator, feel free to comment to correct if there was wrong translation).

3. "Goopy Carbonara" ---> "Carbonara"

Reason why I made the change:

I know that "Goopy" name was from Goopy Gilscarbo from The Sims 2 character. But for me, as I have been playing The Sims 3 since the base game released in year 2009, I wanted the name of food was just like in real life. That's it. No Goopy. Just "Carbonara".

The Traditional Chinese language version did not translated directly to "Goopy Carbonara", but instead other food pasta menu and it was incorrect. 醬料通心粉 (Macaroni with sauce) --> 卡邦尼意粉 (Carbonara) While the Japanese translation it was translated directly to "Goopy Carbonara" in katakana, I deleted the グーピー word.

Languages are in English, Chinese, Japanese only.

Known issues: ⚠️ These mods may not be compatible with other STBL renamed mods made by other Modders due to accidental same instance code used by other Modders that can make other Rename mods you installed before this mod will revert back to original word.

--------------------------------------------

List of instance code compatibility:

Chinese 0x000F16B00BA8342C 0x0D40E85822FDE71A Breasts 0x00412F6BF0473B4A Carbonara 0x000F16B00BA8342D

As usual, install .package file on Package folder. You can safely delete the package if you no longer want to use the default replacement.

More screenshots of rename mod proofs are below:

Do Italian Sims players get annoyed or angry if their pasta, Carbonara, is called "Goopy Carbonara" in this game? Just wondering.

TS3 World Adventures - Authentic Chinese Spring Rolls Replacement Mod

D E F A U L T R E P L A C E M E N T

New custom mesh & texture to replace EA's "Egg Rolls" functional food with recipe.

Cook

Eat: With working GeoStates (Full, Half, Empty)

Serve

And STBL rename mod to rename Default EA's "Egg Rolls" --> "Spring Rolls".

Reason why I made the change:

Egg Rolls were introduced in World Adventures Expansion Pack, as food recipe in Shang Simla, China Sims world, are actually not authentic food to depict Chinese food in China but American Chinese food in U.S.A. country instead: Cheap "American Chinese" meal with stir-fry noodles on the same plate. In China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asian countries, the correct name: Spring Rolls, not Egg Rolls. Egg Rolls are variation of American/U.S.A. Spring Rolls in their country, because Egg Rolls were created in the U.S.A. to appeal American people (has thicker wrapper and bumpy texture) and have been staple dish in American Chinese restaurants. While we actual Asians, Chinese & Southeast Asians, call them Spring Rolls （春捲）and we put Spring Rolls on one plate separated from other food or meal or dish. We actual Asians live in Asian country do not put Spring Rolls together with stir-fry noodles on the same plate. Imagine if you put spaghetti with burger on the same plate... Shang Simla taking place in China, not U.S.A, so that was why I made the change from Americanized food that EA's The Sims 3 employees did not consult to actual Chinese people to authentic Chinese Spring Rolls that normally we eaten in real life. For your info, Traditional Chinese version of The Sims 3 World Adventures has correct name to call the Spring Rolls : 春捲 (Chūnjuǎn = Spring Rolls), not Egg Rolls.

More info to read: Spring Rolls vs Egg Rolls (source: tasteofhome.com)

Google images Chinese Spring Rolls （in English)

Google images Chinese Spring Rolls （春卷）( in Chinese)

Egg Rolls （蛋倦）in Chinese language and country (also sold in Southeast Asian countries) are actually biscuits made from eggs.

------------------------------------------

Mesh & photography texture are made by me. Using photo texture of Chinese Spring Rolls wrapped in diagonal triangle-shaped wrapper, with yellow-golden fried colour. The texture has 2048 x 2048 pixels to ensure highest quality for The Sims food texture.

The Geostates of Full, Half, Empty are fully working.

Cook & Serve with new modded mesh & texture:

"Spring Rolls" rename mod to replace "Egg Rolls":

The "Spring Rolls" rename mod has been translated to other languages using online translator. Feel free to correct me in comment section if you see wrong translation. Chinese version does not need translation because it already has correct translation: Traditional Chinese: 春捲 Simplified Chinese: 春卷

-------------------------------------------

Requirement: World Adventures Expansion Pack

Sim must learn how to cook Spring Rolls (that EA The Sims 3 called them Egg Rolls) from cooking book bought in Shang Simla, China and have adequate cooking skill to enable Spring Rolls option.

⚠️ Known issues:

"Spring Rolls" rename mod only works for brand new cooked food in the game. When you already had your Sim served old EA's "Egg Rolls", then you installed this mod, the mod will not automatically change/rename "Egg Rolls" to "Spring Rolls" for existing Spring Rolls in the game. Your Sim should cook new Spring Rolls from fridge, cook, and serve, then the name of the food will change to "Spring Rolls". The same thing applied for Spring Rolls bought in Shang Simla food or any World that has food register. Your Sim should "Buy Food" to get the Spring Rolls with new "Spring Rolls" name. While the old existing food still has "Egg Rolls" name attached to the food. If you put the food in fridge as leftover before you installed this mod, the name will be "Egg Rolls" no matter what. While your brand new cooked food has "Spring Rolls" name.

The Spring Rolls thumbnail looks broken mesh with incorrect UVmapped texture because the game generates the thumbnail by itself and due to OBJD and the thumbnail source of the original EA's Egg Rolls cannot be found elsewhere, thus the thumbnail cannot be fixed. Please ignore the thumbnail, as the mod itself works very well.

As usual, install this package on Package folder. You can safely delete the package if you no longer want to use the default replacement.

^ Another old TS3 screenshots taken in year 2015. 10 years ago.

I already have found a lot of Chinese Sims Players on internet.

Some are playing Shang Simla... (myself included? 但是我是印尼華人。。。)

Found French Sims Players playing Champs Les Sims...

I wonder if there are Egyptian Sims Players that I can find on internet.

Wondering what are their thoughts about Al Simhara....

-------------------------------------

Chinese Sims Players: Chinese representation in Shang Simla world is so horrible! Inaccurate... too stereotyped... why the 龍（Chinese dragon) looks so red.... why the China world icon is Japanese Gate (Torii)... blahblahblah

French Sims Players: Where is Champs Les Sims located?

Egyptian Sims Players: ..........

(If you are actual Sims Players from Egypt, feel free to comment on my blog post, I will fill the blank. Any non-Egyptian ancient Egypt culture enthusiast is not allowed to comment.)

I bet Egyptian Sims Players complained about the representation of their country in Al Simhara that is too stereotyped, too "Indiana Jones", Egyptian food and culture mistaken as Indian/Türkiye/Arab (Where is Koshari?)

And French Sims Players are proud that their country and culture represented in Champs Les Sims, making historical Sims stories based on Champs Les Sims, posting Eiffel Tower from Champs Les Sims' buydebug mode because no horrible stereotypes or inaccuracies represented by the developer of The Sims based in U.S.A, fellow Western country.

THE SIMS 3 TUTORIAL

HOW TO CREATE CUSTOM FOOD DEFAULT REPLACEMENT MOD USING CUSTOM MESH & WORKING GEOSTATES (FULL, HALF, EMPTY)

This is default replacement replacing existing food in Base Game or Expansion Packs using EA's recipe and custom mesh & texture. If you are not satisfied with EA's existing mesh and texture, sure you can replace them with this easy-to-follow tutorial with pictures explained one by one. No custom recipe, no CCLoader, no scripting.

This is how I created Authentic Chinese Spring Rolls Replacement Mod using custom mesh and texture.

----------------------------------------------------

This tutorial is for intermediate, which means already know the basic principle of doing default replacement mod.

If you are beginner, haven't tried default replacement mod mesh & texture before, recommended to try the Default Replacement Tutorial for Simple Object first. TSRW Workshop, Milkshape, etc. Tools to prepare on that tutorial as well.

----------------------------------------------------

I created this tutorial because there is no tutorial about default replacement food mod using custom mesh and explaining about how to do the GeoStates properly. I did trial-and-error and accidentally found the method how to replace EA mesh with edited mesh, and the GeoStates are fully working.

The challenge of doing food default replacement is that food mesh cannot be cloned simply on s3oc. There's no OBJD for "EggRolls" "Stir-Fry" etc. other food. The only OBJD available for clone on s3oc is Burger.

Sims 3 Object Export cannot replace s3asc because it keeps throwing error and cannot make 3 working GeoStates (Full, Half, Empty).

-----------------------------------

Note: You need World Adventures Expansion Pack to use my example, Egg Rolls. You can replace food from Base Game or any Expansion Pack.

✳️ Step 1: Find all Egg Rolls file strings: Cook, Eat Serve files on S3PE

Instead of cloning from s3oc, we have to find the file from game file package on s3pe.

Why? Because the food cannot be cloned simply from OBJD. You cannot find file "Egg Rolls" no matter how careful you inspect every file filtered "WA" (World Adventures Expansion Pack) on s3oc catalogue.

The only food you can clone its OBJD on s30c is Burger. You will clone that Burger OBJD later. Right now you have to find every file with word "Egg Rolls" on game package.

⚠️I suggest you make duplicate of game package for modding purpose instead of using package that is readable by game when the game is running. It is to avoid corruption because you accidentally replaced the files. If corrupt happens you have to re-install the game. ⚠️

Make duplicate of game package you find on your game installation path.

Base game:

The Sims 3> GameData > Shared > Packages > FullBuildep1.package

Expansion Pack:

The Sims 3> GameData > Shared > DeltaPackages>p02 > DeltaBuild_p02.package (Depending the release of Expansion Pack & Stuff Pack)

My duplicate of game package folder looks like this.

Open s3pe. Open FullBuildep1.package.

Type Name "EggRolls" on box.

Tick besides Name and Filter Active, then click "Set" button. It will give your result "EggRolls" filtered by its own.

Select all files until they are in blue selected, Right Click > Copy.

File > New. Right Click > Paste...

Then your files are all pasted into new S3PE document. You can delete ticks on Egg Rolls filter, as the package is no longer filtered.

File > Save .package. Give the name of the package such as "[Your username]_AmericanEggRollsEA". For my own example, "TBW_AmericanEggRollsEA."

We will use this package as a base to be replaced with new resource codes later. Put this package on Folder such as "Original EA American Egg Rolls" to make you easier to find the file which is original, which is edited.

✳️Step 2: Export Egg Rolls .s3asc and texture files from S3PE & copy the original resource codes.

Export foodEatEggRolls, foodCookEggRolls, foodServeEggRolls to s3asc.

If you are asking why this MODL should be export to s3asc, it is because we cannot clone OBJD of original EA Egg Rolls from S3oc and imported as .wso format from The Sims Workshop (TSRW). The only mesh of EA Egg Rolls we can get is from .s3asc file we can get from s3pe.

Save the s3asc file: "Cook","Eat", "Serve" on separate organized folder, name it "Original s3asc EA Egg Rolls"

⚠️Warning! The strings too long can cause error when export it.

Sometimes you tried to export the .s3asc but then disappeared and you cannot find where you save it. It is because the S3PE application crashed when you exported it because the strings are too long.

In this case, the original .s3asc you want to export is S3_01661233_08000001_0000000008780D94_foodEatEggRolls%%+MODL_filebase.s3asc

You can delete the long string then leave the "FoodEatEggRolls_filebase.s3asc" for example. Yes, you must add _filebase so it can be saved as .s3asc format.

Save, then the .s3asc will add additional files such as:

foodEatEggRolls_group00.s3ascg foodEatEggRolls_group01.s3ascg

Export the original EA .dds textures "All" and "Used" .

Copy all resource codes of each file to Notepad. Right-Click>Details...

Click Copy TGI to easily copy the codes (Type, Group, Instance) to Notepad.

Click GRID > Resources (3 Dots) > TGI Block List Editor You will see the list consists of 8 lines of_IMG, copy all TGI (Type, Group, Instance) codes to Notepad for easy copy paste later.

✳️Step 3: Copy original GeoStates codes (0, 1, 2, 3)

Click "FoodEatEggRolls" MODL. See the 4 GeoStates on the right side.

GeometryStates[0]: 0x95A36FFE

GeometryStates[1]: 0xD8918A76

GeometryStates[2]: 0x4DB2D3D2

GeometryStates[3]: 0x35B26CCB

Copy all these GeometryStates to Notepad for easy copy paste later.

GeoStates are in three forms.... Full, Half, Empty? But why are 4 GeoStates now?

You will find out later by cloning the base food OBJD in the next Step.

✳️ Step 4: Clone Burger mesh using s3oc & Open the Burger Mesh on TSR Workshop

More steps click spoiler tag “Read More / Keep Reading” below

Search "food" on s3oc.

You will get results like this. Food that can be cloned are Hamburger, Hotdog, Fries (Seasons EP). I choose Hamburger because it's Base Game and it's resembling custom food we want to create.

"Clone or Fix..."> Don't tick Renumber > Start.

Save the package. Open the package on TSR Workshop.

Open TSR Workshop > Create New Project > New Import> Next > Browse EA Burger .package > Next > Next > OK.

You will get Burger mesh preview. Take a look at Mesh tab.

Then see the Group 0 and Group 1. Both have GeoStates.

What is Group 0? What is Group 1?

If you check the the burger's .s3asc exported from s3pe or .wso exported from TSRW

You will see Group 0 is the food mesh as main mesh and Group 1 is the plate.

Go back to TSR preview. You see there are 4 GeoStates under Mesh from Group 0 tab.

By default, the Burger meshes (Full, Half, Empty) are combined into one.

Click each GeoState, from top to bottom.

0x95A36FFE is Full state

0x8A6C4E39 is Half state

0x4DB2D3D2 is Empty State

0x35B26CCB is Full state

✳️ Step 5: Create your edited mesh

Import MODL file (with format .s3asc) of Egg Rolls you exported from s3pe from Step 2 into Milkshape 3D via Sims 3 Object Import by Wesley Howe. From Milkshape, export .obj file to your favourite 3D software to make .obj file as base mesh for your edited mesh.

Create 3 States: Full, Half, Empty.

Export uvmap to editing image software to create the texture.

After you are done and satisfied with your mesh, export your custom mesh only without plate, Full, Half, Empty states in .obj format. Hide EA plate and EA's base mesh before exporting.

✳️ Step 6: Create texture

Import uvmap from your 3D software. Create texture, save in .dds format with the same name as original name of .dds exported from s3pe.

✳️ Step 7: Bone Assignment, Make Group & Export to .wso

Open Milkshape 3D. Import .s3asc of original EA Egg Roll "foodEatEggRolls_filebase.s3asc" from Step 2. Click Joints Tab, tick box "Draw vertices with bone colors" to enable bone colours.

The food shows Purple colour, the plate shows Yellow colour.

*Note that this .s3asc was imported from year 2023, the original colours are like these. If in this recent year 2025 shows different colour such as the plate is Purple, please follow this example, assign the plate Yellow colour, because my method using this Yellow bone colour has been working successfully.

Then import .obj of your edited mesh from 3D software. Delete materials of custom mesh, select custom mesh, regroup, rename to group00.

Your main task is copy Bone Assignment from original EA mesh to your edited mesh.

Check the codes on Joints tab, there are 3. Click each code then click "Assign" to see what is the Bone colour to determine rig for functionality of the object in the game.

0xFEAE6981 --> Yellow 0xCD68F001 --> Purple 0xD0DECA8E --> Light Blue

We will assign the custom mesh with Purple colour, therefore, select the custom mesh, select 0xCD68F001, assign. The custom mesh colour will turn Purple.

After you are finished with the Bone Assignment (Main Mesh is purple, plate is yellow), make sure the groups are correct. Group 00 ---> main mesh. Group 01---> plate. Export them in .wso format.

✳️ Step 8: Import the edited mesh on TSR Workshop

Open Burger .wrk on TSR workshop, import your custom mesh in .wso format. Click folder with green arrow to import .wso.

After importing, you will see your custom mesh and Geostate reset to 0 for all states.

✳️ Step 9: Create Geostates on TSR Workshop, Export to Package

If you click Geostate row, the custom mesh disappears. Because the face is 0. Click on ... dots on the right side of Geostate to open Face Selector. Face Selector is to create Geostates working, Full, Half, Empty. The mesh suddenly appears with grey colour.

Left click to give colour to the face. Colouring faces based on Geostate. Be careful because the mesh is all joined into one. When give colour to Full state, do not give colour to Half state.

0x95A36FFE for the Full State

⚠️Warning! This is the trickiest part of creating Geostates: Texturing the Geostate. Cannot undo. If you wrongly click and want to undo, you have to restart from zero again. If you feel the texture is alright, then save it. You can start from checkpoint from last save if you wrongly clicked. Cancel then load the save to restart. ⚠️

Click 'n pick to click the colour one by one. Basic Square: Drag cursor to give colour in big area. Shift + Left Click: Delete 1 face. Click "Clear" to delete all the colour in one click.

Rotate the camera to make sure all part of expected geostates are textured.

Give colour to other GeoStates.

0x8A6C4E39 for the Half State (half eaten)

0x4DB2D3D2 for the Empty State (crumbs)

After you are done with the texturing GeoStates, export to package. Edit > Project contents, Export> To .package

✳️Step 10: Export MODL filefrom Package saved from TSR Workshop

Save the package with name "SpringRolls_TSRW"

Open s3pe, import package that you saved from TSR Workshop. "SpringRolls_TSRW"

Export MODL, save.

✳️Step 11. Finalizing in s3pe & Replacing the Original MODL with Edited MODL & Correcting the TGI (Type, Group, Instance) Code As Same As Default Code

Open original package you cloned on s3pe "Your Username]_AmericanEggRollsEA"

I saved the package with different name to"[Your username]_SpringRollsDefaultReplacement." to make it modified package, while leaving AmericanEggRollsEA package as backup original base, just in case I need original file.

Replace "FoodEatEggRolls" MODL that you saved from Step 10: from SpringRolls_TSRW

Check if all resource code (Type, Group, Instance) are the same as the original. Check the resource codes inside TGI Block List Editor, are they as same as inside TGI Block List Editor in original package.

You can see the resource codes are different from original FoodEatEggRolls MODL codes you copy pasted to notepad. Delete MLOD, change the codes (Type, Group, Instance) with the original FoodEatEggRolls MODL codes on Notepad. Use "Add" to add one row, Delete to erase one row. After you are done, Save and Commit.

Replace textures with your custom texture in .dds format.

Save package.

Test the package in game.

Wait until your Sims finish all their GeoStates, are the GeoStates working properly.

The geostates are working properly except at the Half Eaten state.

All states are combined into one and the plate colour are having spring rolls texture... 😱

Don't panic. Your bone assignment is alright. Copying same codes on Data Resorce and TGI Block List Editor are working properly too.

What causing the Half Eaten state is not working is:

The "Half Eaten" geostate code you are cloning from Burger mesh is not the same as code from geostate of FoodEatEggRolls.

Burger= 0x8A6C4E39

FoodEatEggRolls= 0xD8918A76

✳️Step 12. Correcting one GeoState that doesn't work because using EA's Burger mesh

Your main task here is using Default EA's Half Eaten state code to override your custom mesh Half Eaten state code.

Data Grid > ChunkEntries> [1] ChunkEntries > RCOL Block > Meshes > (on Tab [0] Mesh) > GeometryStates (then click ... Dots on the right side) > [1] GeometryStates

Second row is [1] GeometryStates, indicates it is "Half Eaten" state.

[1] GeometryStates > Name

Delete the code 0x8A6C4E39, replaced the code of the Burger with 0xD8918A76 from FoodEatEggRolls.

Click Done. You will go back to Tab [0] [1] Mesh and Geometry States

Don't forget to correcting the code for Plate as well. Plate is in the Tab [1] Mesh. Click [...] Dots on Geometry States once again, it will bring you to Geometry States for Plate.

Repeat the step as you did for the Food State: On Row [1] GeometryStates > Name, Delete the code 0x8A6C4E39, replaced the code of the Burger with 0xD8918A76 from FoodEatEggRolls.

After you are done, click OK > OK > OK > Commit > Save the .package.

Test your package in your game again.

Half Eaten state should be working by now.

✳️Step 13. Replacing the Original "Cook & Serve" MODL with Edited "Cook & Serve" MODL & Correcting the TGI (Type, Group, Instance) Code

Create custom mesh & texture for Cook & Serve, export to TSRW, then export to MODL like Eat state before.

⚠️ Pay attention because this step is very important, otherwise the Custom Food will turn black/disappear, doesn't work in the game.

Repeat Step 11: Replace the MODL for Cook & Serve state.

If you see default TGI code you copied from "foodCookEggRolls" there are only 3 lines.

_IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x00000000 0xA4D80FB45AE9066B

If you want the Cook state working in the game, you should use default TGI code of Serve you copied from "foodServeEggRolls"

_IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x0E3D40D33CC70324 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0 _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x00000000 0xA4D80FB45AE9066B _IMG 0x00B2D882 0x08000000 0x6F93B613E7C91FD0

instead of foodCookEggRolls, otherwise the Cooked food will turn to Black colour in the game.

Repeat Step 11: Copy all the TGI codes you copied from "foodServeEggRolls" for Cook and Serve.

Commit, Save.

✳️Step 15. Check the Geostates for Cook & Serve

Check the Geostates for Cook & Serve.

Cook & Serve Geostates are working using Burger Geostates.

0x95A36FFE 0x8A6C4E39 0x4DB2D3D2 0x35B26CCB

Leave the Geometry states, no need to change to default EA Egg Rolls (otherwise your mesh will disappear or black).

After you are done, click OK, commit, save the .package as usual.

✳️Step 16. Test the CC in the game.

If your Custom Food works well in the game: Full, Half, Empty Geostates are working without showing weird texture or black or disappear, then congratulations! Enjoy and have fun with your custom food default replacement mod👍

TS3 World Adventures - Authentic Chinese Spring Rolls Replacement Mod

D E F A U L T R E P L A C E M E N T

New custom mesh & texture to replace EA's "Egg Rolls" functional food with recipe.

Cook

Eat: With working GeoStates (Full, Half, Empty)

Serve

And STBL rename mod to rename Default EA's "Egg Rolls" --> "Spring Rolls".

Reason why I made the change:

More info to read: Spring Rolls vs Egg Rolls (source: tasteofhome.com)

Google images Chinese Spring Rolls （in English)

Google images Chinese Spring Rolls （春卷）( in Chinese)

Egg Rolls （蛋倦）in Chinese language and country (also sold in Southeast Asian countries) are actually biscuits made from eggs.

------------------------------------------

The Geostates of Full, Half, Empty are fully working.

Cook & Serve with new modded mesh & texture:

"Spring Rolls" rename mod to replace "Egg Rolls":

-------------------------------------------

Requirement: World Adventures Expansion Pack

Sim must learn how to cook Spring Rolls (that EA The Sims 3 called them Egg Rolls) from cooking book bought in Shang Simla, China and have adequate cooking skill to enable Spring Rolls option.

⚠️ Known issues:

As usual, install this package on Package folder. You can safely delete the package if you no longer want to use the default replacement.

The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff Pack

GTA V Enhanced

Classic EA. Put The Sims Stuff Pack overpriced as possible although the game has been released 15 years ago, year 2010.

Steam has Spring Sale, but The Sims 3 Stuff Pack has almost the same price as GTA V, a full game, released in year 2013, with additional packs and enhanced graphics.

The motorcycle is kind of cool though. Not sure buying Fast Lane worth it or not. The only item I want is the motorcycle but must pay the entire pack with same price as full game.

#Yes I'm promoting GTA V Enhanced rather than overpriced The Sims 3 stuff pack here #grand theft auto v #LGR dude review again #Youtube #gta v #electronic arts #the sims 3 fast lane #ea #steam

Questions & Answers (Tanya & Jawab)

I joined Tumblr in year 2014. Which is I've been here for 10 years and more with this year 2025 counted.

As 10 years anniversary, I will give some present other than The Sims custom content.

Because you may keep asking, but don't dare to ask me personally. I will give responses to answer questions in your head.

Why does the name of the blog 'TheBleedingWoodland' ? TheBleedingWoodland is a name of island in my novel where the characters, one of them is the avatar of my blog, Jiang Weiyuan, and his college friends, went to vacation destination on airplane but ended up 'teleported' to unknown tropical island. They were separated then must find each other, teamed up with other airplane passengers. But in the end they realized they were 'controlled' by a system, that they must play "killing each other" game to survive. The story is indeed full of killing, bleeding and gore scene. I wrote this story way before Alice in Borderland and Squid Game became famous as TV series.

Why are you obsessed with vampires and blood ? I used to obsessed about characters revolving vampires, drawing character about a monster with fangs and sucks blood, and a man with superhuman ability as vampiric monster slayer, in junior high school. In high school era I watched TV series "Vampire Diaries". Oh my.. that was when I had major crush on actress playing Elena ^_^ She's so fine and beautiful. And the blood part? To be honest I used to have.... fetish on licking bloody wound on girl's arm due to influence of vampiric thing I used to watch on movies, anime series, and video games. Not anymore today.

Huang Liyang is actually inspired from my ex-crush, I turned her to vampire hehe.

You are Asian. How did you speak English? Because I know there are English-speaking netizens who are ignorant and think Asians are bad English speakers and only able to speak with our native language, here I tell you: I have learned English language since 1st grade elementary school. I do not use any kind of online translator or dictionary when typing in English language.

Are you a hardcore gamer or just casual Sims player? Hardcore gamer indeed. Too many video games I played. Recently Tekken 8, Genshin Impact, The Spirit of The Samurai (almost finish it), Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.

--- The Sims CC related ---

3. Why are you keep making The Sims food CC and traditional Asian culture CC, why no longer creating vampiric, blood, gore related CC anymore ?

Not all Simmers playing bloody, vampiric, violent themed. This is why I came up with other new unique theme: Traditional culture.

My blog is not specific only for vampiric, blood, and gore only. I like creating unique things that other people do not. As I stated on my Blogger:

"My style is mostly for storytelling purpose, dark/goth/bloody, cultural, foodie, the rest are ordinary real life items."

I am one of Sims CC creators who can create CC with authentic traditional Indonesian and Chinese culture because of lacking representation of Indonesian and Chinese culture. Majority of Sims CC creators think Asia are just Japan, South Korea, and old-fashioned "Chinese stereotype in USA/western country"

Sure there are actual Sims CC creators from Taiwan and Mainland China creating authentic traditional culture CC but still not enough and majority focus on clothing, fashion, ordinary modern stuff. There are traditional hanfu and hairstyle, and traditional Indonesian stuff but mainly for The Sims 4.

I focus on the culture-themed CC first rather than ordinary modern stuff because the ordinary modern stuff can be done by other Sims CC creators. I like to create food because? Food is not just to fulfill your stomach, but it's part of culture and soul of people centered on food. Food is definitely something that is taken seriously in Asia: Because food is love language in Asia. It's usual for us to ask people "Have you eaten?" . Give food to people means "I care for you". Bring food to introduce culture to foreigners, usually it's the most effective way.

4. Why don't you make decoration food as functional food?

If you think custom food meal mod as brand new functional food with recipe appears on breakfast/lunch/dinner time for Sims to cook in The Sims 3, it's difficult to do and needs a lot of time to experiment. See the Tutorial: Sims 3 Custom Foods with CCLoader.

There are very little and lacking CC creations of functional food with custom food meal mod with recipe in The Sims 3, indicates that the mod is difficult to do, compared to The Sims 2 and 4 that The Sims 2 & 4 custom food mod creations are everywhere, indicates The Sims 2 & 4 custom food are easy to do by many CC creators.

Better ask the creator who succeed making TS3 custom food with recipe, sweetdevil-sims to take my food mesh to create the custom food.

The only I can make it possible at this time are: 1) Edible food (pickable snack from plate) as it doesn't need recipe.

That I used to create in year 2018. I have to re-learn again how to create the food with the mod because I made them long time ago.

2) Default replacement for existing food meal in the game, replacing food meal in Base Game or Expansion Packs.
