All animated desert mods have now been updated to appear in the Pond VFX section.
If you're not sure which one you see on the thumbnail, the updated mods are my: Animated Steelpecker, Animated Desert Snake, Animated Desert Lizard and the Cowplant Skull + Optional Eagle VFX .

For a list of all updates/changes, take a look below.

Catalog:
- They can now be found in the Pond VFX section in build mode  (Cowplant Skull can also still be found in the sculpture section).
- Object's titles have been updated with 'Bakie' in front of the title.*
- Object's descriptions have been updated to new format.*
- Object Thumbnails have been updated with (Animated) text adjustments.*
- Object Thumbnails have been updated with a Desert brown background color. This makes it more clear in the Pond VFX section that this object looks best when placed in Desert worlds.
- Prices have been changed for better placement in the Pond VFX section next to some of my other Desert vfx mods.

* If it wasn't that way already.

Placement:
- Steelpecker can now be placed onto water surfaces.
WHY: Despite the fact that this isn't a water animal, I still enabled the 'placeable on water surfaces' option. The reason for this, is because this makes it easier to raise it to something hanging above the water surface like rocks or branches. It's also easier to place it onto floating things like logs or to rocks or branches sticking out of the water.

- Placeable on slopes, which makes it easier to place it above uneven (pond/ocean) floors.

Bakie, good sir whose wonderful mods I do adore? Any chance of creating rattlesnake or king cobra mods? Would love either for placing either on ground, or in aquarium/terrariums :)

I wish I could made those things, but for example the snake and lizard from this post (besides all my other animal mods) are already in game and made by EA themselves. They can most of the time be seen somewhere in the Sims worlds. I make them placeable for the community though. I hoped EA would make a rattlesnake vfx themselves with the Horse Ranch pack, but unfortunately they didn't. :(

What is vfx and how does one make one? Is it a sound thing or?
