Charm Snake into Clothing

[mtglady]

Not sure if this belongs in WA or Ambitions as I have never had this happen until last night when I sent my young couple on a honeymoon to Egypt. This is the first time I have tried to direct anyone to charm a snake since I installed Ambitions and the new patch.

The new husband - new to my family - had a wish to charm a snake.  He went to the market and used the snake charming basket there.  He practiced most of the day, then he and his new wife ate and headed back to the base camp.  The next evening when they were back at the market, I right clicked on the basket thinking I would have him practice some more.  I was given the options for him to 'charm for tips', 'charm', or 'charm snake into clothing' and a list of those sims present in the area.  The 'charm snake into clothing' thru me for a loop because I have never seen that option before.  

Has this even happened to anyone else?  I am including a picture - sorry it is a bit dark.  (click on the picture and it will enlarge).

I've seen that option before, but I've been too chicken to try it!

I think it's like the "Serenade" option with the guitar.

That's hilarious!  I've never seen that option before, but maybe I've never had my sims use the snake charming basket in the market.  What happens when you click for it to happen? 

[AriaGirl77]

The option will come up for any snake charming basket, not just the one at the market.  You just have to have enough snake charming skill for it to appear.

It's hilarious!  I had my Sim do it once while visiting someone's home in Egypt.  The snake goes into the clothes and the Sim totally freaks out running around and screaming.  After a while, it stops.  So, I did it again and she did the same thing, running and jumping and wiggling.  I think it might also give some negative relationship points.

Thanks for letting me know what happens.  I am glad I didn't try it on his wife.  I'll have to have him buy a basket and do that on his enemies.  Sounds like alot of fun!

Haha. Do you have an easy savefile to load to get a shot of that happening??

Are you kidding?  I have a bunch of images already saved.  I'll get them to you soon.

ha ha, I can't imagine why 

[Saltypaws]

I had heard about it too, but it does not show up at on mine and I have a girl that is probably the highest on snake charming.  I have tried it everywhere too.  Oh well, it might show up one day.

Oh, Pam, please post one!  I have to see this.

I first read about this option on the official forum.  Someone had posted a video and it cracked me up.   When I went into the game that has my most talented snake charmer, the option didn't come up but when I went to Twinbrook, my newest sim, Josh took his basket to the park and the option came up.  He attacked a stranger with his snake, and of course they have "dislike" now.    He is a fairly new snake charmer so I don't think the length of time charming causes the option to appear.

I'm wondering if it's an option only with the new sims in Twinbrook.  Has anyone been able to do this in Sunset or Riverview?   

[Asleep]

Yes. Charming a snake in someone's clothing has nothing to do with Ambitions. I've been able to do it before Ambitions was even announced.

Maybe that option has something to do with the traits of the sim who does the charming. They might have to have a certain trait, or maybe if they have the nice trait, they might not be able to do it. Just a thought.
