- amapola76Rising VanguardThere are special book display cases that you use for a bookstore. It's been a while since I set up my bookstore, but I know I bought the book display shelves, then set the books on the display shelves and set them for sale.
What I can't remember is whether I had to buy a big heap of books in BB and set them out on the display cases one by one, or whether I was able to click on the display shelves to choose books to put on them. At this point, Mortimer's employees have just been restocking the original books for ages. - simsimsereNew TravelerIndividual books can be set for sale in retail. You can find the books in BB. Sorry I don't remember the cheat code it's been a while, bb.showhiddenobjects maybe?
My problem was that when my author sim tried selling her written books in retail, those would not stay on the shelf when she left the lot, but were returned to her inventory. A different kind of problem, but wondering if anyone had tips on this one? "Ziafar;c-18248688" wrote:

oh really? i wanted to sell like cook books or skills books- crocobauraSeasoned AceI have a shop that sells the magic spells books. The issue with the bookstore shelves, is like all shelves in this game, there's not enough slots on them to display books for sale.

I'm pretty sure you can find them in the debug menu. You just have to make sure you're getting the ones with actual titles. - Admiral8QNew Spectator
I have a thought. It may work...
If you have bb.moveobjects on, you can have a few tables or shelves where you want the books displayed ready. (I'll go with table for my description, should work identical with shelves.)
Have a table, put as many books on it as you can. The books will 'lock' to the table. Remember where the table is. Then move the books off the table to where there is nothing to lock to. The books will be in mid-air. Move the table away, then using Alt, position the books where the table was, nicely laid out like you want. Then move the table back. - Is it possible to create a bookstore to sell things at? Like you would a bakery or something for instance?

Yes but you need Get to Work expansion pack, it comes with a retail system. - I'm not sure but I think if you place bookshelves on a retail lot your sims will be buying bookshelves.
Have you tried ordering books from the computer? "simgirl1010;c-18248481" wrote:

I thought that also if place shelves they would buy that not like an actual book? so maybe order books from online and sell them that way eh? as i wanted to add the Classic bookstore from Sunset valley so was thinking best option to have running book store? unless as you mentioned order books online?
i will try that - thanks
