Links to TS2&EP hacks:More Critical AL EP8 FIXES;InTeen info NEW 1/1/09

[maniac19642003]

Two more interesting things popped up at sim wardrobe a few days ago.

03/21/2008
"New Object: Employee Car Restoration Controller - The employee car restoration controller will allow you to assign an employee to repair the restorable car that came with the FreeTime expansion pack. The controller can be configured to have the employees paint the car in the color you select. Employees assigned to this controller will take breaks as required, provided they have access to the objects needed to do so.

New Object: Employee Coffee Maker - This industrial strength coffee maker can only be used by employees that are on the job. It is the perfect object for a break room used by employees that burn through their energy quickly.

You can find them both here: Sims 2 Objects"

Mark, thanks. You have to admit it's rather funny that the modding community already has both of these covered, and covered well. EAxis seems to be a day late and an EP short!

Oh, and rather than release new objects that are redundant maybe they should consider a patch to make TJ's Critical Fix unnecessary to gameplay!

TJ found the problem with FT immediately; Pescado found the problem with BV immediately. What's EAxis' poor excuse. Oh, wait they have no excuse; just useless additions to the game!

Sorry for being so harsh, Mark, but they deserve a lot more....and please, no one support me here as this is a hack thread and should be only devoted to new D/Ls and hack. My rant is over!

Two Jeffs (he deserves to have his feet kissed), has created a wee mod that does a number of things that we've come to know and love inSIM for.  Just thought I'd share:

You missed it Toni, thats already been linked to in the first post. :happy8:

[jinyc]

Toni's back; yea!

[ilikefishfood]

Hey, that first post is like a little novel, man! lol!  Sorry, guys, must have missed one of the updates.  But still, it's terribly cool! Ok, I'm heading back over there to finish worshipping at TJ's feet!

sorry if this is a dumb question
but i have sims 2 deluxe (base and nl) uni, seasons and free time
and i downloaded insim, and inteenimator which is beta. lol
but up until i installed seasons it wont work now?

[jinyc]

I am a bit confused. You have all EPs with the exception of OFB and BV? Your game played well until you installed Seasons? Was this a new installation? Or have you just added FT?

The BV InSIM is backwards compatible so it should work with all EPs prior to FT. It is not compatible with FT. If you have done your research you would know that most people recommend using the OBJ edition of the InSIM for FT...but use it with caution.

As far as the InTEEN is concerned, what edition are you using? This mod is NOT backwards compatible and your MUST use the version appropriate to you installation.

As a safety I would remove all of your CC to a safe place on your PC and then install the EPs. After you install all of your EPs I would put back my CC after making certain that all hacks in your game have been certified compatible with the latest EP (FT).

It is unusual that either the InSIM or InTEEN should inhibit your game (you should really direct all InTEEN related questions to their Site as it is not supported here). Most likely it is another hack that is not compliant with FT.

Inteen for FT has now been released!!

Also, jase has updated Squinge's Pregancy Wear Anything mod for FT use, but it needs Inteen to work

[jinyc]

TA Sadie! I had such a problem D/Ling the Beta InTEEN, then, PRESTO, my system D/Led it and I have not been to Pleasantview since. RL can be so annoying!!!!!

[Sleepycat]

twojeffs has moved! again :lol:

see the InTeen site for details about why and theres also important info about the future of InTeen.

twojeffs new site is named Simbology

Sleepy I added the link to TJ's new Site.

I really enjoyed Jase's literate farewell to TJ and the InTEEN. It was actually quite comforting to read his thoughts. He has left us with no doubts as to the future of his involvment with all things Sims (of course, there will be some who, even having read his thoughts, will still want to know when he will update his creation to match future Sim releases...so sad they).

It is reassuring that Jase will keep the Site going for the next several months. I only hope that the InTEEN, in all its compatible forms, will remain available to all who want to let their teens wallow in sexual lust and suffer its inevitable sins (oh, rather literary on my part as well). Jen's WH Lite and Jase's magnificent InTEEN are necessary pleasures for those of us who like a bit more reality in our game.

Now I have to give serious thought to what Toni has written. Is there a future not only for the InSIMenator but for the Site that hosts it? It is so frustrating for so many of us to exist in limbo.

EA released the patch for FreeTime and it fixes 34 errors.
Get it at the official German Sims site: FreeTime patch

[jinyc]

Mark, how scary is that? Sadly, I don't understand German so I will not add this patch. Also, why isn't it available yet on TS2? Annoying!
