Title: EP2 required:Community Lot Date fix
Post by: Squinge on May 04, 2006, 08:49:08 pm
As requested:
This mod allows your Sims to accept phone calls to go on a date/outing even if you don’t have any downtown lots created. It fixes the taxi screen problem of nothing being listed in the taxi dialog.
 
**This mod is intended for people that have not created any downtown lots**
 
EP2 is required to use this mod.
This mod is compatible with EP3.

I need to weed out my downloads before getting this one.  I'm apparently having a conflict with my many downloaded mods.  LOL  When my Sims go on a date and ask their date back to their house, it goes through the motions fine until gets to the loading the Sim's house screen.  It goes right back to the community lot I just left, only it is in buy and build mode but with no option to save if I tried making any changes.  Do you think this mod might fix it?

I doubt it will fix that, have you tried the sims 2 hack conflict detection utility (http://www.simwardrobe.com)? it may help you figure out the cause of that problem:)

LOL I tried that!  It listed tons of stuff!  I honestly couldn't figure the mess out.  So I suppose I'll have to do like I did before when I had a download that was causing problems.  Take them all out and add them one at a time til I find the one that is conflicting.

The detection utility lists which mods have duplicate references. Just move those ones out of the folder & then try to determine which of those you actually need :)

If you would like put the conflict results in a .txt file and attach it to your reply in this thread (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=8821) I will be happy to help you with the report:)

Tested last night but didn't get a Date call - this may tke some time because it's totaly random whethert hey get this perk or not & you only get the chance after a dream date. Anyway, as soon as I know I'l let you know. I'm certain it's right - it's just a matter of playing log enough to get it to happen :)

Thnaks!

Does this enable it so you can choose which lot(s) you visit outside of the Downtown section? I think it's annoying that I can't go for group outings/dates to my Open For Business community lots because they're in the "Business" section of the neighborhoods instead of "Downtown".

Dunner1 I am pretty sure it does because of what Squinge said in the description post:

You could try it and see, it cannot damaged your game to do so.

I'm not sure you would have to try it, I haven't had any time to test this one myself:)

Well, no one has called to invite my sims anywhere yet. lol

I'll keep playing with it until someone does, then I'll either repost/edit to let you know. :)

Thanks, that is one thing that sucks when trying to test certain mods it can take forever before you know if they are working:)

Yes & this one is not an option that comes up very frequently :/ I'll let you know just as soon as I get one of those Date calls, but so far I'm just getting flowers, love letters & gifts. LOL - it figures!

Very nice! Thanks!


Title: Question for people that have tried this mod?
Post by: Squinge on May 19, 2006, 02:33:00 pm
Does anyone know if this mod is working?

Post by: Dunner on May 19, 2006, 04:12:03 pm
Well, I've kept testing it today (been busy... sorry!) and finally someone called to invite a sim downtown...

Sadly, when the community lot choice came up, there was nothing listed! It was like I didn't have any downtown lots at all, even though I've got 6 or 7. So, I had to cancel the option to go downtown.

I went and removed the hack and then my downtown lots showed up properly when I went to choose where I wanted to go for the outing. So, I guess it doesn't work...

There was no error or anything that popped up and I didn't have any conflicting hacks. Sorry about that...

Thanks for the Info, this mod is only meant for people that don't have any downtown lots created so it may still work :)

This is working great with only a base neighborhood. The call comes the night following a "great" or "dream" date. This is a needed fix, indeed. Thanks for this!
