Which object did you clone as a base for this?

For the texture line-up problem, you'll either have to edit the uv-map or the texture. I can't say anything more specific about that without seeing the object, though.

Which magic chrystal thing? I think it would be adviceable to ask permission to clone it now rather than later, if it's a custom item you cloned. Most creators don't like others cloning their objects.

it was in a tutorial to clone, so I thought it would be ok, I have the author written so I will try and contact them now,

In lieu of any better ideas from someone who has actually tried to make food appear in game, I'll submit an idea. You may need to run some functions in the food item before it is considered "edible". Looking at the muffin-generating code in the toy oven, my guess would be that you need to use "run tree by name" on one of the "CT - Set State..." functions, but it may actually be a lot more complicated than that...

The Oberkron Crystal in Carrigon's tutorial I think is what they are referring to.

Yes this is the one I was reffering to :D

Thanks I didnt know its full name!

Can soeone tell me how I am meant to make the object drinkable, I used a summon code thing (using the GUID) and shouldn't that make a replica of the object with all it's functions, or for some reason is it considered empty, should I try make duplicate??? please help!

If the object is appearing, then you are summoning the object with all its functions. The problem is that the guardian on the pie menu function you want is failing for some reason. My guess was that you needed to run one of the functions in the object by name to make it appear "ready to eat/full/cooked/something else" for the sim. *points to reply #6*

You mean Oberkorn's "Fire Krystals"? They're made by, oddly enough, Oberkorn... http://forums.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=39620

Either, are you making a custom drink can or just summoning an existing in game object?

If you're using an object that overrides an in game object, it's probably best not to edit it's pie menus - you'll probably end up making it not work as a normal object any more. You'd have to make it a seperate object.

The object you're summoning is keeping its settings, it's just that it's in the wrong state. When you create new object instance, it's created in its initial state. In the case of food items, this state is unprepared and consequently, inedible. Unfortunately, food is one of the hardest items to summon successfully.
