Hey, sorry for the late reply. Thanks for your comment, really appreciate it. Those are good additions. I mark them as planned so I can keep track on that :)
Also, If you have an idea for the names, feel free to share. The wands' names reflect the original wielder's personality or background to keep a reference and be immersive for the game.
great mod if I make a donation can you add some wands I am making a bunch of Harry Potter sims and would like wands to match. please let me know how much money you'd like :)
wands I would like: Severus Snape Lucius Malfoy Barty crouch jr Newt Scamander Albus Dumbldore (fantastic beasts) Neville Longbottom Remus Lupin Gilderoy Lockhart Filius Flitwick and Quirinius Quirrell
Greetings, First thank you for your comment. I realy appreciate your positive feedback.
Regarding a donation. You don't have to. I do this project because I have fun working on it and not with the goal for an income.
The wands you ask for are (I think) mostly managable. I am not sure if I am able to add Lucius Malfoy's wand and Dumbledore's fantiastic beast wand since they have unique shapes like the snake head and the hollow wand. Straight stick like wands are not that difficult but I would try to make them because they can be used because the magic beam in a sparring connects to the wand's end unlike a curved wand would.
But I am not able to add them in a short time. I have currently much private stuff to deal with and before I can start working on the new wands I have to teach myself again on how to use Blender for the wands.
I would upload your requested wands - which I was able to create as the next update of this mod. I probably also upload Ginny's wand with it as well.
--EDIT-- I updated the frontpage to show your requested wands as planned, so I keep an eye on them. --END OF EDIT--
If you want, you can suggest names for them. Names fitting the original wielder. And if you want, you can share a screenshot of your sim/-s with the wands, I would really like to see it.
Thank you so much for adding the wands I requested I will be downloading this mod as soon as I have a spare moment.
although some notes and a question:
•Lockharts wand would be better named the wand of forgetfulness since is proficient in memory charms
• Quirrell does in fact have a wand it’s alder would 9” unicorn hair core. If you look it up you can see replicas online
my question is, did you add the correct the wand for Barty (as in his own wand that is sold as a replica) not mad eye moodys wand which is not his (he just used it while disguised)

My idea regarding the name for Lockhart's wand was because of his conceited personality which is noticable throughout most of the movie. With him labeled as an uncontastable wizard while he is scared to catch a view pixies he released himself.
Regarding Quirrell's wand. I think I've found an example picture to work on it. I put it under planed.
And for your question. I searched for Bartie's wand and got multiple results. The one I've used is probably the most commonly used and had the best resolution to work with since the wands rely on a reference image to work out the form and textures. The one from the wiki is not a good choice to work with in my perspective. And the wand from Mad Eye has a slightly different shape than the wand I've used, based on my research.
I hope I was able to answer your questions appropiatly :-)
--EDIT-- I uploaded Quirrell's wand. It is called 'Suspicious Wand'. --END OF EDIT--
Hello! I would like it if some of the wands are realistically powerful according to the actual Harry Potter lore. The wands in the Realm of Magic dlc all have a rarity rating, I'm pretty sure ranging through common, uncommon, and rare. For example, one of the wands in this mod, the Elder wand, also the most powerful wand in Harry Potter, should have some sort of rarity such as rare. I have no idea if a wand's rarity affects its succession during spells or duels while using one, but it would be nice to have accurate wand rarities. Thank you!
Hi, thank you for your suggestion and sorry for the late reply.
I've looked in Sims4Studios for an option to change the rarity of the wands (even in XML code). I think that is something I can not change since modded wands have a base setting with default values.
I've used an existing rare wand as a base for example. But when adding them as new objects (not recolours of existing ones), the rarity had been changed.
Also since these wands have the same techniques as the ROM wands, I can not alter their power level.
If I find something, I can make a view attempts for modification
