Traditional Chinese lantern has history of thousand years. The traditional Chinese lantern is always red in default. With other colour variation is gold. To any non Chinese people who wants to depict traditional Chinese lantern, colour it with red colour, as this is not fancy modern lamp.

Whoever team worked for The Sims 3 World Adventures didn’t consult to Chinese person at all, resulting fatal mistake at representing Chinese lantern.

Buy mode catalogue shows Chinese lantern in white colour. White is colour symbolizes purity and mourning to death. Not suitable for Chinese lantern at all, where it is supposed to depict luck, joy, and happiness in red colour.

In Shang Simla world, the lanterns were shown in orange colour. Not common colour at all. Never in my life seen Chinese lanterns in orange colour, especially white colour. Very no no no.



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

Changes: Overlay ---> Replace the wrong colour and dull chocolate rim with red and proper gold texture.

Recolourable:
1 channel: Lantern support.
Red Lantern cannot be recoloured.
Buyable object has automatic red colour default replacement from catalogue.



Known Issues:
if you load your Sims game straight to Shang Simla world, the lantern cannot be reset to default replacement red colour with Nraas’ Debug Enabler, it will reset to EA colour.

❗ You must load the lantern from buy mode catalogue first! It is to load the overlay texture. You need to install Nraas’ Debug Enabler (Core mod by Twallan) in order to work correctly ❗

Follow these steps to reset the textures:

Visit any Sim household in buy mode > buy EA’s Chinese lantern (you can choose to not save the game) > travel or choose save game in Shang Simla world > Click on the lantern > Nraas > Debug Enabler > Options: Lantern Illuminator > Objects... > Reset Textures > (Choose one) All Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Lighting.Mimics.LightingWallAsian or This Object
