    If you destroy a glimmerstone, how do you get it back? They also vanish if you upload casters to the gallery.

    Also, does anyone have a mod to put my sages back into their proper clothes? I tried that mod that’s floating around on pateron or whatever the site is but it doesn’t work for me, one of my sages is a knight and the other employed as a gardener (can I remove that from her?)

    Aaaand does anyone have fixed houses for the one in glimmerbrook, not the charm family the other one. I tried to do it but those back stairs... whoever built those needs to have a word lol
    Thanks.

      The house with the stairs that go up to a wall, someone has done a wonderful job in fixing it.

      For the missing Glimmer Stone, I just tested this out in my game. Ask one of the sages for a replacement, they will give you a new one.

      Duh! Should’ve thought of that really.

      Question... WHY would you ever wanna break one seems entirely pointless

      I'm suspecting that it would be for those who decided they didn't want to be a spellcaster anymore. Because that is the only way the player can get rid of them.

      Destroying the glimmer immediately makes you a muggle??

      I thought you just had to ask one of the sages to reverse the spell that made your sim a spellcaster in the first place?

      I really don't know, but that was just one thought I had about it, just speculation. But there are options a sim can do to undo it themselves without going to the sages.

      I destroyed the grimmerstone to see what would happen, nothing really happened, the sim was still a spell caster to still cast spells, the grimmerstone is just a stone that allows you to open up the portal in your house, so that you don't have to take the long way around again.

      As a Master you can learn the 'Homewardial' spell (Return to the Magic Realm), so basically you don't need the Glimmerstone anymore. So it makes sense that there is a way to get rid of the Glimmerstone in your inventory.
      If I just posted an outfit you like, I have good news - there is more where that came from!

      My caster knows Homewardial. He also lives in Glimmerbrook. What I want to see next time I load is whether the glimmerstone is an object placeable in-world and, if so, what it looks like. I might just want it as décor.

      Unfortunately, there's no Place in World option. I don't think it even has an in-world design, only the icon in your Sim's inventory. :( would be fun if you could, say, set it on the mantle. (and hope it doesn't burn in a fire ;))

      How long does it take the Glimmerstone to recharge?

      I discovered the glimmerstone's true form! If you have a sim with it in their personal inventory and then you delete them in cas using cas.fulleditmode it gets transfered to the family inventory and you can put it in world and it looks like a shiny orange polygon! So many new things to discover!

      Here is a picture of the Glimmerstone after doing what @MoonDriedTomato pointed out. It can be moved out of the family inventory, but it can't be interacted with sitting out. The only thing that will happen when you put the mouse cruiser over it will say Glimmer Stone.

      Well, that's not very decorative. Darn.

      So, can someone explain this to me? I have a sim that is a spellcaster but wasn't born/created as one. She has two children who are spellcasters and two non-spellcasters. So when one of the spellcaster children became a toddler, I noticed in her inventory that she had a glimmerstone but she wasn't able to use it. But then a few sim weeks later I noticed in the mother's inventory two glimmerstones. I was confused at first not really sure where the second stone came from but then I remembered her daughter had a stone as well so I clicked on her sim picture and looked in her inventory and sure enough, her stone was gone and was now in the mother's inventory. I have no idea how or why the daughter's stone ended up in her mother's inventory. But what's weird about all of this is that she has a spellcaster son, who is currently a toddler, who has the glimmerstone in his inventory. Are toddlers supposed to have the glimmerstone or is this a glitch. If toddlers are supposed to have the stones then surely it disappearing from the daughter's inventory and moving to the mother's inventory is definitely a glitch.

      I would guess that if a sim baby is born a spellcaster, they automatically get a stone but it is moved to the mother's inventory until they become a teen. That would be interesting to wait and see if it goes back to the child when they become a teen.
    • EspeonLuver93EspeonLuver93 Posts: 21 Member
      (Dannydanbo) I guess it's possible that the stone will go back to the daughter once she's a teen, but it doesn't explain why the stone was in the daughter's inventory one day and then in the mother's the next. I wonder if the son's stone will go to the mother sometime soon since as of right now he still has the stone in his inventory. I'd destroy the stone but I don't want to destroy it if the stone will go back to the daughter.

      If you put a spellcaster into the library/gallery, their inventory is wiped, so a spellcaster saved this way will lose their glimmerstone. I know this is not directly an answer to your question but it is a reason to seek a replacement if you place a caster from the library/gallery into a different save.

      Or you can learn the homewardial spell.
