I have two requests, one is important I think...

1: Is there any way to stop sims from randomly intruding on apartment lots? For example, other sims living in the trailer park will come in my sim's trailer whenever they feel like it. Is there any way to make them do the standard thing and ring the doorbell, so they have to wait for my sim to greet them before they enter?

2. (EDIT! Nevermind, I think JM Pescado fixed this. But I would like to see the problem above dealt with, it's REALLY annoying!)

Thanks so much!

Hello

I downloaded the Vampire Aging hack for EP4 quite some time ago and it was working fine. I have all expansions, and the hack seemed to stop working after installing Seasons. My vampires will not age unless I use the Insim and do it manually.
I have run the Hack Conflict Detection Utility and it hasn't found any conflicts.

Thanks for your time.

Hello.
I've been trying to change the background of Bodyshop for some time now with only partial success...
I understand you have to create an image and save it to the /mydocuments/EAgames/sims2 folder and call it "userBkg" and save it as a .bmp.

In this case, I just want a plain white background. I go into MS Paint and make a 20X20 inch white image and save it as a 16-bit .bmp. When I go into BS and press F5, I get a message like, "There has been a 3D error...the program will now terminate" or something close to that. Then BS closes.

I try again using a 20X20 image and for some reason it works, but only half the background is white. When I press F9 to get rid of the menu, the other half (where the menu usually is) is black.

Note: I also get the error message when I save it as a 24-bit .bmp, which makes no sense to me.

How can I get the whole thing to be white?

Thank you.
