Title: EP3 required:Check in with Shops Faster
Post by: Squinge on September 28, 2006, 12:18:41 am
As requested:
 This mod decreases the amount of time it takes to check in with your shops, during my tests my sim checked in with 6 shops in less than 30 sim minutes.
   
   **If you use my no more who are you trying to call again mod, then download the file “CheckInWithShopsFaster&NoTryingToCall.zip”**
   EP3 is required to use this mod.
   
This mod is compatible with  FFS & GLS.

   
   Only download one file.

Great!  It took so long to check in with low-level shops that the owner might as well have gone in anyway.  Thanks for this.

Squinge I just tested the CheckInWithShopsFaster&NoTryingToCall package and found it conflicts with Pescadero's Missing Manager Fix package.  Without his package still was unable to contact managers. Combined with this package still unable to contact managers for checkin.  Just in case it will help figure it out here is what the hack conflict report said about them:

Both versions are different I named both files the same thing but they are different, what do you mean by unable to contact the manager?

Managers are available at two different stores.  
When doing the check business command I get the following message: No manager available when I have the following conditions:

1: No business related hacks
2: Your Check in with Shops Faster
3: Your check in with shops faster plus Pescadero's Missing Manager Fix

I have manager contact when checking in if I have Pescadero's Missing Manager fix installed however regardless of the other business mods (mostly yours).

These are the results when I have the business owner check into businesses from home.  Heck the way Pets messed everything else up, wouldn't surprise me if they messed this function up big time as well.

Tested with same lots and owner without saving the game each time during testing so I could repeat identical conditions for each set of mods/hacks.

This is the same problem that I am encountering... JM Pescado said that I should not install conflicting hacks but without your hack, it will take me forever to check in shops. Is there anyway to fix this?

Actually, there is this missing manager bug... JM Perscado has a fix but since it conflicts with yours, we can't use your hack together with his.

Thanks.

That's probably because they both modify the same procedures. You're probably just going to have to decide which of the two mods you want or need in your game more.

Is there anyway to combine these mods so that there will be no compatibility issues. If it's possible, how? I am not an expert in SimPE. Thanks.

They are made by two separate people: Squinge and Pescado. It's a matter of which mod you would prefer to have in your game. It is highly unlikely either of those two gentlemen would change their own mod or even combine them for your pleasure.
If you don't know anything about SimPE, don't even dare to use it. Both of them know more about coding for mods than most of us will ever think of.
So the short answer is no. Pick which one you want and use it. That's all you can do.

Correct. Neither Pescado or Squinge will do that by combining both mods to work together. Sorry. Mr Squinge is not accepting requests for Sims 2. Not even for Sims 3 (I don't think he plays Sims 3 but never know). Pescado has been focusing on Sims 3 more these days, so I doubt he will pull his old mod up for Sims 2.
