Grow Fruit?

«1
While gardening I keep getting aspirations related to the grow fruit. Has anyone seen this item in console, and if so, where?

    Sorry, wrong area. I would not know how to get the growfruit on console.
    If I just posted an outfit you like, I have good news - there is more where that came from!

    In buy mode, if you buy either the garden pot or square, you can click on it in live mode and purchase seeds. Or around town, you can sometimes see wild apple trees or other fruit that you can pick and then plant at your own lot.

    Jinx23, I was asking about a specific item, the grow fruit. It is a type of fruit they made up and put in the game. I have not seen it in the console game, yet I keep getting aspirations for it.

    On pc there was a limited timed challenge where grow fruit trees could be harvested. Not sure if console version will be getting challenges as well? Anyway, you can find grow fruit in the buy debug menus. You may have to enable cheats, which disables trophies and achievements. A work around is to have a separate "cheat save" and create a room in build mode, place object in the room, then save to your library, then download the room in your other save. Just to let you know, the grow fruit trees I planted never bare fruit, so you still can't harvest them and no glowing animation. I just cancel the whim if it pops up.

    That is just wrong. To complete my collection, I must have the grow fruit and one other item which I do not recognize. It is some kind of oblong, egg shaped fruit or veggie.
  • sooozeeebeeesooozeeebeee Posts: 665 Member
    There are a few other "archived" collection or challenge items like the sugar skulls, Easter eggs. I wonder if your mystery egg shaped item was a forbidden fruit? Part of the plant SIM challenge. I missed that one.

    @sooozeeebeee I missed the plant sim challenge on pc as well, but perhaps that is it. I certainly hope the challenges come to console, as why would they put something like that on your collection chart just to taunt and annoy the completist folk who enjoy such things. I found the holiday crackers, and got all the beanie babies from that, but when I looked for a display shelf, the only thing present was the sugar skull shelf, which was, of course, unavailable, as the game came out after the challenge. SO unfair to taunt us in this fashion! Anyhow, thanks for the reply and have a lovely new year :)

    As we wont be getting the challenges on console i do wish they would remove the challenge collectables from the collectable section. Its anoying as we can't complete them all.

    Official Q&A i saw. The post was either on sims community or sims vip. Basically its due to the process console patches go through. Console patches have to go through microsoft\sony before they can be released hence why console are behind in terms of patches. Well minus those sand snowmen we got the day after pc.

    I will be expecting my Easter eggs, sugar skulls, plant sims and GROWFRUIT. Also the shelves for putting your collectables on. Need those. They should not have put the skull rack etc in the game if they weren't going to give us the goodies! And I am not going to use cheats. Never liked them. Sure hope we get some more content soon! I want cats, dogs, camping, yoga and more sim absurdity!

    The goodies are all in game still, they just cannot be accessed without cheats anymore. The same applies for anyone who missed the challenge on PC.

    If we are not going to get the events then i hope they remove the event collectable catagories from the game. Its frustrating to see them when you cant actually get them.

    Not likely to happen. They still appear on PC, even after that special events are over. They are not needed to complete our reward achievements though. Since they are found in the debug menu, they will always appear.

    I wont use cheats as i dont want to disable trophies

    @Simsfan99111

    You do not need all of them for the trophies. I assumed console has many of the same boring achievements that are found on PC.

    If you are going for an achievement with the gardening plants, I believe you only need the original base game ones. Same for most of the collection achievements. The only thing unlocked with the growfruit was two decorated planters, and that was only during the special event on the PC. The other special event items only unlocked special in-game decor items or in the case of the plant SIM seeds, a special tree.

    This.


    Its like if you use buydebug cheats you can find those items in the game. So you can fill that collection but cheating to do so.

    I was hoping to get the growfruit etc. At this point I would just be happy to get some actual content and maybe a patch for the controls, as they go all wonky every hour or so on my xbox. And by content I do not mean another thrilling stuff pack either.

    I saw a greyed out Romantic Garden in the Buy Mode filter, so I suspect that will be coming next, or it is ready for release.

    It comes out February 6th.

    Not sure if this is helpful, but if your sim becomes a scientist, there is a chance that if they use the simray to transform an item, they can get a glowfruit.
