I tried to use it, but for me, it doesn't work.
I can change the script, the objects has the new functions/interactions I want with the change of script, but my sims can't use it.
Something knows what I'm doing wrong, or what else do I have to do?

Thanks

well it depends on the object, ive tried with with several things and some work and some dont. i can make any car have the speed of the fancy future cars with no problems, also make any bed have the highest comfort settings, but when changing an object into another different object you can run into problems. i was able to turn a houseplant into a hamper with no trouble, but i couldnt make a houseplant a fairy house. i also couldnt make a dragon into a parrot. there are too many functions on those objects i think. so try to keep it simple. i am still experimenting but so its been really fun and useful

What we need is a Master Post of all transfers that people have experimented on and had success with. So far I've tried turning a bucket into a washing machine, some wooden boards into the uni chalkboard writing thing and. . . what else? Can't remember but had no luck so far with an appropriate transfer. Just keep getting the route-fail animation when Sims try and use stuff. Will keep on tapping away though, I'm sure there are a million ways to use this :D
Thanks for such a great mod!!!

I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and say, this is the most amazing thing evah! You come up with mods that are not only interesting, but incredibly useful! I can think of all sorts of ways to use this for my historical worlds, and some of the people here have given excellent ideas as well. (I like the idea of using one of the piles of books as a computer, but the Greave's Writing Set from the store would be even better!)

Edit:
I changed the Adventurer's Tools into a computer, and it works great. :)

However, I don't recommend changing any of the gems/metals into a computer, or into anything else for that matter. I had wanted a crystal ball for a computer, so tried to add the computer script to it. It worked as a computer... but the gem switched back to a lump in appearance. (And not the original gem lump.) When I copied a gem script back to it, it became just "metal", and couldn't be used at all. I couldn't pick it up from either live or buy mode, and had to use DebugEnabler to purge it. (Which also purged what it was on, and the window next to it.)

So, just saying, don't use a collectible. Just not a good idea. :)

I'm able to move houses between computers and the objects keep their new coding. I've made a Supernatural stack of books into a computer, a fireplace into a TV, the WA baskets into a fridge, a sarcophagus into an all in one bathroom ala IP, and a flowering pole into a stereo so far.
It didn't work to turn a tree into a martial arts dummy, or a rug into a sandbox, or the moondial into a telescope so far. And changing random small things into a pegbox or a xylophone haven't worked for me yet. And the nightstand into a dresser also didn't take.
Nor turning tables into counters. I haven't been able to test turning the fireplace into an oven yet.

Oh. My. God. I'm speechless.

I literally don't know what to say. I'm starring at this page and still can't believe something like this is even possible. Where has this mod been my entire life?! I mean.. since 2009. Or whatever.. I'm babbling, this is too exciting!

Icarus, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for everything you've done over the years, for every single mod you've created and shared, for all the creative ways you've enriched my game. I don't think I have ever thanked you properly, which is a shame since I use most of your mods. So thank you, thank you, thank you.

I tried to get the decorative base game fire truck toy to become a remote-control car using a remote-control toy from the Sims Store. I also took the alien stuffed toy from the base game and tried to give it either the teddy bear script or the toy box toy script. None of these seemed to work, BUT, I was just experimenting and had no children on the lot. In theory, the adults should have been able to use the remote car and to "talk through" the teddy-alien hybrid, but neither of them appeared functional. More testing is needed, but I was too excited about being able to get cookies from the cookie jar to really follow through with the toys. Mmmmm, COOKIES! It's the little things that count.

Anywhoo, this mod is awesome, I love it. Thanks again, Icarus, you rock!


Can you expain how you made the cookie jar dispense the cookies and the candy jars candy? It did not work for me but maybe i did something wrong. I'm not a great modder . I tried to copie the oven script to ther cookie jar but that didn't work. Do i have to use Arsil generic foodmaker to change the jars in foodmakers? God, i hope not can't handle that MOD at all (still love it do.)
Thank you!

Yes you need to use Arsil's food maker, but with this mod it's super easy. Just download Arsil's mod, put the package in your mods folder as normal. Then in game use this mod to change the script of the object to this Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Arsil.GenericFoodMaker
Volia! you have a food maker, then ctrl+shift click the object then select settings to set the food you want it to dispense. I have used this to make functional cookie jars, a baby bottle warmer, orange juice pitcher, drinks machine etc, all in game, without having to edit the package files it's awesome!

When you change the script for something, will it function as the object in buy mode, or only when sims use it? i.e. if i made a plant into a painting could it hang on the wall?

I've made most of the rabbitholes in a new world I'm monkeying with by using the Vault of Antiquities, and then using Transmogrifier to change its script to that of the rabbithole I want. I tested it and it works perfectly. They go in the doors, and they're in the non-Vault rabbithole I switched the script to. They can take the classes, get jobs, etc.

You know you are a genius! We know it too.

I just used this to change paintings into televisions. No more modern electricity needed. Have your sims stare at a painting forever and like it!

I could change a sink to a washing machine, but the sims always dropped the laundry on the way or were reset. So a sink with its own options to clean and break didn't jive well with the washing machine's cycles.

I had no problem with the simple "upgrades" to expensive like items, however.

I've been getting the wheel of death when trying to use this (when trying to return to "Live" mode). Any known conflicts? I'm pretty mod heavy, but I was trying to copy bar interactions to a decorative wine bottle for a smaller apartment.

Edit: Small update. It was giving the wheel of death on the smaller/home bars, but using the professional bars from LN worked just fine. Possible conflict might've maybe The professional juice bar mod as the culprit? I'll test later without that script in place to see if it makes any difference.
