Basemental Drugs 7.13.160
🕑 Added 2021-01-08 13:39:33 +0000 UTCHappy new year! This is something I have been working extensively on for weeks and weeks and well.. weeks.., and I'm sure it will bring some additional hours of gameplay value to your games. Please read the changelogs and installation instructions as it contains important information. <3
Changing World
- Changed prices on a regional basis
- New MDMA batches on the streets
Party Planner Aspiration
- Build a team
- Host Raves
- Host Festivals
- New Rave Location venue
Other
- Fixed unsupported participant LE caused from tobacco feature
- Changes to the Venue List - More about this in the "how it works" section
First things first, this new aspiration does require some stuff to run properly. First and foremost it utilizes the Get Together expansion pack as it would not make sense to host raves and festivals without DJ's. Secondly, you need to download the Venue List to make sure that you can set up Rave Location venues.
I think that is about it, so with no further ado...
Get Started
As with any other aspiration in game, select the Party Planner aspiration for your Sim either through CAS or the Select New Aspiration screen. You can find it under the Drugs category.
Objectives and Milestones
Level 1
Start by building your team. Head over to a nightclub and get friendly with the local DJ to get the option to ask them to join your team as a team DJ.
As for the Drug Dealers, befriend an NPC Dealer (if you haven't already), and ask them to join the team as a team dealer.
For promoters, you can ask any of your friends, but you need a substantial amount of friendship built with them for the option to appear.
Level 2
To prepare for your upcoming rave, click the Basemental Drugs tab on your phone, and navigate to the Party Planning sub menu.
This will bring you to a menu where you manage your upcoming events. Most of the stuff required for this level of the aspiration is handled here.
The admission fee cost and size of promo campaigns will factor in to how many Sims showing up to the Rave. Meaning, a low admission fee and large promo campaign will bring in a bunch of Sims, but the campaign will also take longer until it's completed, and since the admission fee per Sim is low it won't necessarily net you more cash when the total is tallied up. A large promotion campaign is also more expensive than a small one.
As for Security. Hiring security is not really a definite requirement to host raves, but if you get troublemakers that starts picking fights with the other ravers it's good to have security on lot to throw them off the premises.
Host Rave
When the promotion campaign has ended you can host the rave through the Basemental Drugs menu on your phone. Note that raves can only be hosted after 8 PM, and you need to set up one or more Rave Locations first.
To set up a Rave Location, edit any lot in game and assign it the Rave Location venue. Make sure you have the required items for the venue in order for it to work.
Now you should be all set to host the rave. When you click the "Host Rave" button, you will shortly get a call from your promoter, asking if you want to start the event. Click OK.
Rave
The rave event is a situation with various goals, the main one being to collect the cut from your team dealer. Whenever your dealer sells drugs to Sims on the premise you can get a cut from the sale, but you can only collect the cut from the dealer once during the event, meaning the longer you wait to collect the cut the bigger the cut you will get. But if you wait too long you might risk the event ending before you get your cut.
There is also a chance of cops showing up throwing your Sim in jail. This will cancel the event and giving the admission fees back to all the Ravers, meaning you will end up with only expenses and no actual income from the event. What this means is also: More ravers on lot = more dealer sales = higher probability of cops ruining the party.
When the event ends you will get the total expenses and income in a notification in the top right hand corner of your screen, and it will be deducted or added to your Sims funds.
Level 3
To book a celebrity for your upcoming Festival, head over to the Party Planning sub menu on your phone, now that you are at level 3 on the Aspiration you will get the option to do that from here. First, though you must specify that the event you will be hosting is a Festival and not a Rave, then you select one of the 3 celebrity DJ's from the list.
To add more Dealers and Promoters to your team, follow the steps outlined under Level 1 of the aspiration.
Level 4
These are pretty self explanatory, just follow the steps under level 2 of the Aspiration. However, note that the expenses and incomes will be substantially higher when hosting a festival. The main difference from hosting a rave is that you can only host a festival on weekends after 6 PM, and you won't need a specific venue for it.
The default venue for your festivals will be the Chalet Gardens in Windenburg.
Finally:
When the aspiration is completed, you can still keep hosting raves and festivals, just make sure to have the aspiration enabled to do so.
Hope you enjoy, and much love to all of you!
Venue List
To make sure this works you need to download the updated Basemental Drugs venue list provided in this post. If you have Basemental Gangs installed, please delete that venue list and install this one instead, I recommend installing this venue list in a separate folder directly in your Mods folder called: Basemental Venue List
The reason I don't recommend you having it in your Gangs folder is that I will keep the venue list separated from the Gangs mod from now on, as it doesn't make sense uploading a whole new version of Gangs just due to some minor changes to that Venue List.
Choose one of these 2 installation methods. Not both.
Basemental Drugs Installer (WINDOWS ONLY)
- Delete all the old Basemental Drugs files from your Mods folder.
- Download this Basemental Drugs.exe file.
- Run the Basemental Drugs.exe file.
- Choose which Optional Packages you want included.
- Delete your localthumbcache.package
Basemental Drugs Zip
- Delete all the old Basemental Drugs files from your Mods folder.

- Unzip the Basemental Drugs zip file.
- Place the files in a folder titled Basemental Drugs in your Mods folder.
- Delete the Basemental Drugs zip file.

I’ve added my promoters and drug dealer, but when I try to add a dj, the only option is to add as promoter. Is there something I’m doing wrong?
Basemental
No. Things are in Debug for a reason, most items from this mod will not work correctly if you buy them off debug due to the object states attached to them
Basemental
Please use the support channel on the Discord server as outlined in the post
Heaven on Earth
I cant go into settings or sell anything
Letisha
When I type in Debug mode, I notice there are 3 new strains of weed. Do you plan on putting them in the main menu? I can only get to them when I type in Debug in build mode.
Basemental
There’s currently a bug that might occur in larger than 1 sim households. It’s getting fixed real soon
Once I got to level 3 of the aspiration security stopped showing up to both events and no matter what celebrity DJ I choose a DJ never shows up to the festivals. I always have to hire a DJ for festivals on the spot.
Basemental
Definitely not 🤔
Basemental
You still need the venue list package
Sim_Baebyy
Basemental drugs.exe says its password protected -_=
Daniel Turner
if we use the installer do we still need the venue list package download or is that in the installer?
Shania Furbert
I literally live for your updates. I saw you updated on patreon and had to susbscribe again!! LOVE THIS MOD SO MUCH
Basemental
Please use the Discord server for support as specified in the post
I just added to my game and it didnt work what should i do ? i have other mods could they be convicting with it ???
Oh okay so it’s after you set up the event. Thank you!
Basemental
Not sure what you mean. It is regular text and can be found on the phone under your Drugs tab - After preparing for the event that is. If you need additional support on this, head over to the Discord server. Links in the bottom of the post :)
The icon to host a rave isn’t showing up for me :(
Barbie sim
RAVES!?!!?! IM SO EXCITED!!!
Basemental
I think Sacrificial might have a mod that does that(?)
Basemental
Not an actual limit, but I advice you to stick to the number suggested by the Aspiration goals as more team members than the recommended amount won't really give you any extra benefit
Kia Lawrence
Hi is there a limit on the number of promoters and dealers you can add to your team? Curious to know before i start playing soon...
I never experienced the police bust from the mod yet. .. which sounds interesting. Wondering can you make a mod that brings burglars back into the game like sims 3. Anyways Thanks for your hard work and effort in making these mods to give the sims 4 a better and fun experience!
Basemental
Yes it does, and yes you should :)
Hi Im wondering does this venue list include LittleMisssams more buyable venues and should i delete here venua list
Basemental
Please use the Discord server for help :)
Basemental
Thanks for letting me know, I will look into it
I'm not seeing security so I can't complete "check up on security" during a rave, is anybody else having this issue?
M
This no longer works for me. Already reinstalled it. The category is there but it says "settings". When I click settings, nothing happens. Also cleared the cache.
Trene Fulton
AWESOMEEEEEEE
Basemental
Please use the support channel on the Discord server for support questions. It's linked in the bottom of the post
Basemental
Correct
Basemental
Yes, this venue list includes all of those
Cbreezy1123
Can you only build a team and throw raves if you have the aspiration?
Amiracle
This looks great! Quick question...I have other mods like LittleMsSam, Zerbu and Ksuihuh that require accessibility to certain venues. I may have missed it, but does this new list support their mods as well?
Janiel Henry
Hello I need help ! Anytime I launder money the option to withdraw disappears, does anyone know why ??? I always wait till the buff disappear to try and withdraw the money. Please help
Basemental
Thanks for the feedback. I'll look into how to make that more customizable
Basemental
Make sure you don't have any other venue lists from other mod authors in the Mods folder, as there can only be one.
Basemental
There are tutorials for all of the basics on my website: https://basementalcc.com/drug-dealing/

I love this mod and the new Rave update is great! It would be cool if we had the option to choose the age of the ravers as opposed to them automatically being teens. Biggest reason being is because we have to interact with them as one of the objectives , it leaves my sim knowing a ton of teens that are always calling her up to hang out which is...yeah I'd rather she hang out with sims her own age lol. Otherwise, the mod is running great and I'm having a lot of fun with it. Awesome job!
Gbehlee Savice
I did the installation and placed it in my mod folder. I also took out the localthumbcache and also put the venue list in the mod folder. I still dont see "rave" listed in build mode. I tried uninstall and re-install several times and the same thing happens. is there something that is missing?
Simply Jai
ok...I am a first timer with this mod...how do I make my sim sell drugs...He still can't sell them
you rock! i love this mod!
Risiera
Happy New Year Base 🎉 Thanks for this...sounds fun! I better go hurry up and finish my batu aspiration so I can try this new aspiration out 😍
Back at it again with the fire content!! Thank you! Happy New Year <3
Basemental
I’m happy to make adjustments if I get constructive feedback I agree would improve how it works, and it being in the realms of technical possibility 🙂
Bnicole
Thank youuuuuuu I looooove IIIIIt! Happy mf new year you the truth!
Michelle Golden
OMG WOW!
Jay
Thank you so much! This will work super well with the influencer career too. Maybe you can make some adjustments in the future?
Everything is working for me. Thank you so much!
Basemental
In order for this to work you should use mine instead, yes. Let me know if any venues are missing from it (like any of ksuiuhs, although I’m fairly certain everything should be there already) and I’ll add them
I use Ksuihuh's venue list. Should I delete it and just use yours? Will Ksuihuh;s venues still work with yours? Thanks in advance.
Neen
This looks so awesome! Thank you for this!
Basemental
You won't. The game will generate a new file for you the next time you launch the game. The reason you should do this is because old mod data is cached/stored in the localthumbcache.package Make a habit of deleting this file whenever you make changes to your Mods folder to prevent problems, and leave it intact otherwise to make sure your game runs faster.
Looks fun! Why do we need to delete localthumbcache.package ? I've never done this before. Will I lose anything?
Basemental
No you don't need that :)
faifth
i deleted a file called basemental strings.package, do i need that? i dont see it in the new file
Benjy Redd
Never mind. I found the error of my ways lol.
Benjy Redd
Rave location not listed in venue type?
Blushing Creep
If I'm not mistaken, it's warning you that the .exe file could harm your device. This is a warning it gives to all people when downloading .exe files, across the board. I wouldn't worry about the warning. Basemental has no reason to include corrupted files that would harm people's devices.
Gem Kelly
this is mad. get to relive my life from 15 years ago. not sure if it makes me feel young again or just really, REALLY old.
finally! I was waiting for someone to implement raves into the get together pack. tysm for doing this
DR.SIMS
MY PC is telling me one of the files could harm my device , im usually able to download all of your content with zero problems
Rowe J
I delete the log as well?
Panda
This sounds like so much fun! Time to live out my 20s vicariously through my sims 😂
Stevarino
F**kin Hell, thanks alot mate! SO cool!
EDNurseDee

Milo B.
