Not a buyable object, and this is not in any official Patch:

These upgrades will allow you to access the Buy/Build Mode while playing your Sims Downtown, on Vacation Island, in Old Town, in Studiotown or in Magictown.

You should only use Buy/Build mode enablers that are made for the newest (i.e. most recently marketed) expansion pack that you have.

Not a buyable object, and this is not in any official Patch:

This file will make all existing trees of this type “huggable” (by the adult sim that you are controlling).

Note from Daveh: I did not make these animations (Maxis did), I just found them while exploring the Vacation files and decided to find a use for them.

“trees2.iff” should be placed into the folder …\The Sims\ExpansionShared\ . . Additional info in the enclosed “readme” file by Daveh.
