Create Dyes #1.png - width=1911 height=983
Updated to fix an issue that made the mod require Vampires GP.
I need to minecraft-ify my sims game even more - so I've made the Eco Lifestyle dyes craftable! Each one can be created by clicking on a berry, fruit, plant or flower, and hopefully I have achieved some kind of realism in how I've assigned the dyes to each craftable.
I made this mod because I love Zero's Create Yarns from Wool mod (which allows you to dye your harvested wool!) and JaneSimsten's Functional Spinning Wheel mod (which lets you spin harvested wool into yarn and string). I think the combo of all three mods gives a really nice off-the-grid experience - growing fruit, making it into dye, harvesting wool, dying it, spinning it and then cross-stitching or knitting with it!
The dyes can be made from:
Red dye: Cherry, Strawberry, Snapdragon, Rose, Tomato, Dragonfruit, Pomegranate, Raspberry, Grape, Holly berries
Orange dye: Carrot
Yellow dye: Lemon, Chrysanthemum, Chamomile, Toxic Chamomile, Elderberry, Noxious Elderberry, Pineapple, Onion
Green dye: Basil, Parsley, Sage, Spinach, Avocado, Garlic, Green beans, Green peas
Blue dye: Blueberry, Garlic
White dye: Bone dust, Werewolf lore bone collectibles, Bonefish
Grey dye: Black bean
Black dye: Blackberry
Grim dye: Death flower
Note: Some of these are deliberately inaccurate - like the blackberry black dye - because I couldn't think up another option to make black dye and I want it in my game. If anyone has suggestions to improve realism, though, I'm all ears.
Extra note: The garlic is not inaccurate. Look it up, it's crazy
