Title: A Simple Farm Question?
Post by: tamorr on April 25, 2009, 10:10:35 AM
   A have a simple question to those of you that know at least a bit about the Instance values. I was wondering what the Maxis Fields are according to their Instance. Do any of you know which field belongs to what Instance. The building file one, since that is all I have mananged to get from the main files.

   All it says is Farm field 2 through 7 not what they are in game. Plus there is one that is marked as 0002 which I am assuming is the Pasture or am I wrong? That Instance is 00024100

   The rest of the Instances are:

2a6e4309    =   Farm Field 2
2a6e4310    =   Farm Field 3
aa6e4328    =   Farm Field 4
6a6e4332    =   Farm Field 5
ea6e4721    =   Farm Field 6
ea6e4722    =   Farm Field 7

   I really would like to know what each is in game, and was wonder if anyone knew which was what. I appreciate any help I can get.

From the User Visible Name Key they are:

FarmField2_2a6e4309        Lettuce Field
FarmField3_2a6e431d        Lettuce Field
FarmField4_aa6e4328        Orange Tree
FarmField5_6a6e4332        Apple Tree
FarmField6_ea6e4721        Pasture
FarmField7_ea6e4722        Pasture
0002_FarmField_00024100     Lettuce Field

Not much imagination used?  ;)

These are the standard Maxis fields and are not BTE but all BSC fields are.

   I am asking if it has ever been done to replace the existing ones... So that it will add to the Values in the one Lot that shows you what you have grown in the Town/Region.



   Thank you anyways....

   What Instance Values would I need to put into the Farm Fields Property in order for the Farms to work. From what files are the primary ones I would have to use.


   I mean from each field set on the LEX. If I can't make the Maxis Fields BTE enabled then I would like to be able to use others alongside or without out them. I am confused as to which IDs to reference.

   And why is there not so many nut farms? I have only ever seen peanuts grow from those sets. Why not Almonds, Cashews, Walnuts, or even Chestnuts...?

Thank you for all the help.
