I am now trying to consolidate as well as update this thread to current status. RL has kept me too busy of late to be of any good use to all of you but thanks to Mark many updates have been found and reported in later posts in this thread. Over the next few days I will try to move Mark's research to the first post.

Chaavik has generously updated Monique's Cheap and Expensive Computers (FreeTime). It is an awesome tool and should be in your game:

SimPe has been updated to AL EP8 compatibility (see SimPe section below)

TJ has created the Sim Blender (an alternative to The InSim). It has been updated to AL compatibility.

See link for more information:

http://www.simbology.com/smf/

Mark (our tireless Sims investigative reporter) has also found the following at Sims Wardrobe:

"March 7, New Fix: NPC Phonebook Fix - After the installation of FreeTime the phonebook no longer shows any of the NPCs that should be callable, such as the Maid, Gardener, Etc. This is due to a glitch in the new LUA script that is supposed to filter out the "uncallable" NPCs. This fix makes the non BV NPCs callable again and has the added bonus of allowing you to call the new Hobby Club Leaders on the phone."

Please see the Sims Wardrobe section for the link to SW.

Remember to remove or copy your D/Ls folder and copy your neighborhood files before installing any PATCH to protect them. Patches should be treated as clean or re-installs. After patching, run the game; if all is well then and only then put your copied or moved D/Ls and neighborhood files back into the game.

Also, don't forget to check with each hack creator to see if his or her MOD needs to be adjusted for this newest PATCH.

Please keep checking back as I will add new links I think pertinent as I find them.

***THE INTEENIMATER IS FULLY COMPATIBLE  WITH ALL EPs up to and INCLUDING Apartment Life EP8. YOU MUST USE THE VERSION APPROPRIATE TO YOUR INSTALLATION***

Find the EP8 AL InTEEN here (As well as previous updates for the InTEEN; you may have to register to download it):

http://www.simbology.com/smf/

All questions pertaining to function, performance and problems with the InTeen should be asked at Simbology.

Jase previously updated the Jenflower's Teen WooHoo Lite mod to FT EP 7 compatibility. It has not been updated for AL. Remember this is not the InTeen; you can not have both the InTeen and Jen WH simultaneously in your game. Use the update that is compatible with your game. Read the ReadMe files.

If you wish to have teen woo hoo for AL Carrigon updated her mods to AL compatibility.

NOTE: The InSimenator has been updated to full AL compatibility!

The Apartment Life EP8 InSimenator V. 2.9 works with original TS2 core game and all subsequent add on packs and EPs.

Do not install more than one InSIMenator .package file in your game or you will have conflicts. Please be sure to remove any previous versions of the InSIMenator.

The InTeenimater will not work, nor does JenFlower's Teen Woohoo.  The anti-elder-aging elixer mod may work, but may disable some functionality in OFB.

You need to re-enable custom content from the options menu.  All custom content is disabled by default. when you install OFB.  People are using InSim successfully in OFB.  Check the InSim support forum for more info.

I see 5 mods or hacks listed that over ride game behavior
they are:
1. Adopt teen V2, package
2. Like jase439 said Inteenimentor (_B. package).
3. Lotfull of sims ox 0177. package
4. Preg normal dressing V1. package
5. DMA sims 2 downloads are not compatible with OFB,
DMA will sooner or later come out with a version for OFB
Everything else seems to work ok........

im not sure what hack it is but one of them seems to make "business - hire employees" not work.. Im about to take them out and check one by one.. I know for sure it wasnt Merola 64 painting beacause ive been using that the only other one it might be is the computer hack or phone line controller.. I think it is probably the phone line controller.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the phone controller is Pescados and a new one has been released.

Do you have the last version of Insim? It works relatively well. I haven't found any probs yet.
