Walking cane
Awalking cane is an item featured in The Sims 3: Generations. Only elder Sims can use it. There are three styles available for purchase in buy mode, under the indoor activities tab. Once you have bought the cane, it can be placed into any sim's inventory.
When placed into an elser's inventory, two options will appear. One is to give it as a gift and the other is to start using the cane. Once the later is chosen, the elder will walk with the cane. Now there is an additional option availible when clicking the cane. You can chose their walk style as the Southern Gelntleman and the Generic Gait.
The Southern Gentleman style is a jolly gait. The sim will strut around with no apparent difficulties. The Generic Gait, on the other hand, has a more "elderly" appearance. The old timer will limp around with what openly looks as a walking disability. However, when the sim does't use the cane they will lose the limp.
