🎉Animated - Black Swans🎉

ℹ️Animated - Black Swans
I've created a brand new animal which couldn't be seen in The Sims 4 before, the Black Swan!
This pack comes with 2 Black Swan objects. There's a pair of Black Swans swimming around, and a static one with water ripples around it, which can be switched off if preferred.

Deco Slot
The Static Black Swan can also be used as a breeding one on my Unlocked Bird's Nest. This object will automatically snap to a deco slot when close to it. This also counts for the deco slots in the Bird's Nest. To be sure it snaps to a non-rotated deco slot, first place eggs on 5 of the deco slots available inside the nest. The swan will then snap to the 6th deco slot in the middle over the eggs.

Placement
The animated pair of black swans can only be placed on water surfaces. The Static Swan object can be placed both on terrain as on water surfaces. Both can be placed close to or even through other objects. Think about in between water reeds or on the nest.
Be sure to activate the MoveObjects On cheat for placing the swan on the eggs in the nest without problems.

🔎Search tags
The following search tags can be used to find them in game:

ℹ️Extra Notes
Short notes
• Both are standalone objects, so they won't override any other objects in game.
• They can be found by going to Build mode > Outdoor Water Décor > Pond Effects.
• You can also find them by typing 'Black Swan' into the search bar.
• The object's catalog thumbnails, show a Black Swan and my "BakieGaming" icon in the lower right corner.

====================================
=====🚨INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS🚨======

As this is a Custom VFX, it needs an extra file to work in game.
This file merges my custom vfx code with those already available in game. You can only have ONE of these in your mods folder.

After downloading the file below and unzipping it, you will find a folder named VFX Black Swan. And a package file named BakieGaming_CustomVFX.

The BakieGaming_CustomVFX file is the merged file.
The folder named VFX Black Swan contains the file for the Black Swan objects.

Best way to install it, is by making a separate folder in your mods folder called BG_VFX for example. In there, you place both the package file as the folder.
(Whenever I make new custom VFX you can add those to this BG_VFX folder.)

Example of your The Sims 4 > Mods > BG_VFX folder

Mizoreyukii's Community File Resource
The people that already use Mizoreyukii's Custom VFX Resource file need to wait as she will add my custom VFX to her file later. I will add a link to it when she updated her file.
🚨You can't have both my BakieGaming_CustomVFX as well as her VFX Resource file in game!

====================================
=====📷 EXAMPLE IMAGES 📷==========

As Black Swans are used worldwide as ornamental attractions especially in Asian botanical gardens and parks, I made a Japanese Garden in the Sims to showcase their beauty!

These images are just a small part of the entire Japanese Garden, which I'm still working on. I just wanted to 'finish' this part first for these example images. Multiple mods that help me shape this garden are unfinished and will be shared later when they're ready.

The plan is to also share the Japanese Garden eventually. ☺️
