🕑 Added 2024-04-19 23:59:22 +0000 UTCFirst of all I want to thank all of you for your continuous support and that you have been patiently waiting for this one. This has been way more work than I anticipated when I started working on it, not to mention a boatload of testing to ensure that everything works as intended with all four gangs.
I really hope you enjoy this, and I am extremely happy to finally be able to release it!

🎲 Gambling Racket
Setting It Up
First of all your Gang leader needs to be at level 10 to be able to set up your illegal gambling racket. If you are at max level, talk to your Right Hand Man at your leaders headquarters. Click the Information menu then "How To Purchase Illegal Gambling Venue".
Then you head over to the world, find a lot and assign it the correct gang Casino Venue lot type, and edit it so all the required objects are in place.
Make sure gambling is Criminalized in the region you are building your illegal casino.
Head back to your gang leader, talk to your Right Hand Man again, click the Rackets menu then "Purchase Illegal Gambling Venue".
Hiring a Casino Boss
Now that you have purchased the illegal gambling venue you need someone to run it for you.
Click on the Gangs menu on your gang leaders phone to hire a friend to take care of business for you. This can be a gang member, family member, or a friend that isn't affiliated with any other gang.
Once you have hired your Casino Boss you have everything in place. If you are controlling corners or have extorted businesses your enforcers are already giving you a cut every Friday. With the gambling racket in place they will give you a lot more on top of that.
Running the Casino
Switch control to the Sim you hired as a Casino Boss to run the casino.
Just click on your Casino Boss's phone, go the Gangs menu and select "Run Illegal Casino". Note that you can only do this from 8PM at night.
Running the Casino will start a goaled event with random goals. These include:
Bribing the Cops
Telling dealers to cheat
Borrowing money to customers
Telling bartenders to water drinks
Collect money from various sources
Most of these are self explanatory, and will come with additional notifications in game to let you know what to do.
Police Busts
The cops can break up the party if you don't spend Simoleons bribing the cops every night. Bribing the cops will cost you 5000 Simoleons and can be done through your Sims phone.
It may seem tempting to skip it, but there's a high risk that they will come in, bust you and confiscate all the gambling equipment.
Pay Your Dues
Every Thursday the Casino Boss will receive a visit from one of the gang enforcers coming to collect that weeks cut that will go directly to the boss.
Make sure you have a decent amount of Simoleons saved to make sure the enforcers treat you alright.
Borrowing Money to Customers
Whenever you borrow money to customers make sure to click on the Gangs menu on your Sims phone the following day to collect the Simoleons. Your Casino Boss will then disappear for a bit to meet up with a gang member to collect the cash. With interest.
Oversee Gambling Operation
When you play as your gang leader (not the Casino Boss), you can click on the Gangs menu on your Sims phone after 8PM and click "Oversee Illegal Casino".
This will have your Sim visit the Casino on a goaled event where you can get various treats and bonuses.
New Opportunity
Once you have your racket in place and the Casino Boss is hired you will also get access to one more opportunity from your Right Hand Man.
The opportunity is running from your gangs headquarter and involved the Casino Boss.
Visit Illegal Casinos
Regular Sims that aren't affiliated with any gang can also visit illegal casinos. Just click on your Sims phone and go to the Gangs menu, click on "Visit Illegal Casino". It is available from 8PM every day, that is if you have any illegal casinos set up in your game.
👮♂️ Get Out of Jail Free Card
The opportunity where you help out a sketchy politician comes with an additional perk now. If you are successful when helping him out he will make sure that your next trial will be skipped without any repercussions.
Prior to the trail you will get a phone call from him where he lets you know that the trial is dismissed and that you guys are even now.
Venue List
To make sure this works you need to download the updated venue list provided here. I recommend installing the venue list in a separate folder directly in your Mods folder called: Basemental Venue List
If you already have this Venue List installed from the previous version of drugs you don't need to reinstall it.
Choose one of these 2 installation methods. Not both.
Basemental Gangs Installer (WINDOWS ONLY)
Delete all the old Basemental Gangs files from your Mods folder.*
Download this Basemental Gangs.exe file.
Run the Basemental Gangs.exe file.
Delete your localthumbcache.package
* If you installed from the installer previously, you can delete the old files by launching the file called unins000.exe in your Basemental Gangs folder.
Basemental Gangs Zip (WINDOWS OR MAC)
Delete all the old Basemental Gangs files from your Mods folder.
Download the Basemental Gangs zip file.
Unzip the Basemental Gangs zip file.
Place the files in a folder titled Basemental Gangs in your Mods folder.
Delete the Basemental Gangs zip file.
Delete your localthumbcache.package
NOTE: This mod is an add-on to Basemental Drugs, and it requires Basemental Drugs to work. It also requires the Get To Work expansion pack.

Miss Victoria Jeffery

Hedone Sims
Hi, I posted on Discord but did not get a response. The door lock settings for Basemental Gangs don't work on gates for fences. I made a security fence and would like to keep non-gang members out using the security fencing and also the tape gate from Get Famous in other areas. Can this be updated with the next release?
Jazmyn
Can we get a drug lord aspiration or something similar?
miss.S.C
it says I need to list items for sale
miss.S.C
i bought a casino as a gang leader but it won't let me open it. Is anyyone else having that problem?
d.v
There should be a venue option (Simkuza Casino/ La Cosa Casino etc) Those are the illegal casino options)
Gbehlee Savice
I am unable to set up the illegal casinos as I don't see an option when setting the lot for one. I only see one for Generic.
d.v
Is it possible to have 2 illegal casinos at the same time? I was able to set up gangs so my primary sim won't be involved and with the current safe file I set up 2 illegal casinos when I click on the phone to visit one nothing happens after the interaction though when I did the same thing with only 1 casino in save file it worked fine.
Basemental
Please head over to the Discord server for support as it is easier to troubleshoot your issues with you over there
Basemental
Not sure what you mean
Basemental
My first hunch is that you might have Discovery Quests enabled. Those mess with alot of events and situations. If that is not the case, head over to the Discord server for support

I'll jot it down in the suggestions box

SPACEFACEMOONWALKER

hi! whenever my sim goes to oversee a huge shipment the event immediately gets cancelled and it says unsuccessful. idk what that means and i cant do the event to get the money
Chayse Pulliam
Yes your sim will need to be level 10 gang leader I believe
SPACEFACEMOONWALKER
Hey Base lot venue type doesnt say illegal casino in edit still only says casino do you have to purchase venue as level 10 first?
Limah Walker

One_ShayLovely87
Thank you
alex
Yes I am having the same problem. I cant oversee casino or when I switch to casino boss i cant run the casino. The same thing happens they just dial and stand there. I turned off discovery quests too
Basemental
You should never have more than one Venue List
One_ShayLovely87
do we need 2 venue list? im confused (havent played in 5 months)
Basemental
Club hangouts are currently not enabled at the casino venues, but I'll make a note of changing that for the next release
Basemental
Sure it is. I see you found your way to Discord and have gotten support help there, though :)
IndigoGirl
Are clubs allowed to gather at casinos? I have a casino set as a club hangout but the club members don’t show up. I want to recreate Oceans 11 in the sims, lol.
Queen Victoria
Its not working
Basemental
Disable Discovery quests if you have that enabled. Discovery quests seem to cause a lot of problems when initiating situations.
Basemental
Starting a gang requires a maxed out dealer skill. If you need support head over to the Discord server. Link is in the bottom of the post
Aprill B
Since I updated I'm having a hard time staring a new gang. Each time I click on my phone I only have the option to go to a casino and not start a gang. Has anyone had that happen?
Korryne Coleman
is anyone else having problems overseeing huge shipment? Every time I try to have my sim do it, they just dial the phone & stand there...
Space Zombie
This seems pretty cool. Do we get to off rival sims, rub em out, make them swim with the fishes? 😁
prettaieyez
Do anyone already have a nice casino made..lol
Neen
Yooo I am HYPED for this!!
felion robinson
thank you this is great
Cesar Rivera
Thank you! If you haven’t done so already, you should consider being a gamer engineer or programming your work is unbelievable!
Basemental
Cheers Cesar. The easiest way to start fresh with all the Gangs is to take the Gangs mod out of your Mods folder, overwrite your save without the mod, put the mod back in and have at it.
Cesar Rivera
Mega Huge Huge Fan here, great work - thank you. Is there a way to reset and starts fresh? I forgot who is who with gang leaders. Thank you
Basemental
Quite soon :)
Lucas Fingerhut
Hey, the mod is really cool, it's already known when a German translation will come out for the new version

It won’t allow me to open the casino it’s after 8 and it’s not Friday and I’m playing with the casino boss
Heather Duffy
If I could build anything better than a 3-year-old, I'd join. I'll just sit and eat some popcorn from the cheering section. LMFAO!
Basemental
I doubt anyone has built any quite yet, but I might run a discord build contest very soon
Darksimz
Sweeeet! Thank you this amazing.
Heather Duffy
Thank you! This sounds super exciting. Are there already built casino lots that we can use? Very excited!! ❤️
daluved1
I am SO EXCITED for this.
Gina Holloway
This sounds so exciting, can't wait to play with it :D
Basemental
Yes. The most recent patch didn't really break any of my mods though. I don't know any mods it did break, actually
joyia fields
Wow great job with this add-on, i love it!! Your the best!
Sharice
