As requested:
This mod allows your sims to chat while swimming see screen shots.
EP1 or greater is required to use this mod.
This mod is compatible with FFS & GLS.
5/08/06 Fixed a problem with bubbles showing around sims after they exited the pool.

**Someone at MTS2 tested this with EP2 & it worked for them, but I guess it won't work for TS2/Holiday still not sure about EP1.**

Wow!  I've always hated that they couldn't socialize while swimming.  

Am still playing my test neighbourhood (kinda got attached to my test families)....so will check this out in a clean game for ya.

I like this, maybe this will keep them in the pool longer.  Will try it tonight.

I love, but is there any way around the stopping and standing in the water to talk?

i am still trying to find a way to stop that but no luck so far.

Lol, that's fine with me. At least they can still talk! I don't usually swim and talk at the same time and I don't suppose anyone else here does either?
 
edit:Ok, I've tested this mod without any EP's and i'm afraid it doesn't work. Sor for anyone that doesn't have any EP's don't download it.

Is the standing on water fix working in your game?

[mainegal32]

Squinge again thank you for this hack.  The standing on water is fixed.  I played around with it for most of the day and it works great for me.

Great! if you notice anything else i may have missed let me know & I will try to fix it.

It works well in my game, except one thing, I don't know if this happen with OFB or this mod ( only used one house with pool since installing OFB and I don't recall what went on, was opening a business away from the sims home so I was in and out of that house a lot.).  Everyone that comes to the house goes straight to the pool and stays in  it until you call them out.            

   The Nanny will go to the pool first thing if the toddler doesn't need fed right away.  The Nanny will get out but returns in and out all day.  I like the idea that they stay in the pool longer but the attraction for vistors is like the swing set.
 
   I'm going to take the mod out tonight and see if the same thing happens.  I'm just thinking of weddings, etc. that every vistor would be in the pool that might pose a problem.  I'll let you know if there is any difference by removing the mod.

Thanks again I do like that they can talk in the pool.



Edit:  Ok  the  thing with the sims going straight to the pool when visitng a house with a pool seem to be in the game, never notice this before OFB, but with the hack removed the visitng sim came out on her own when food was served instead of staying in and also used the bathroom, with the hack in the visitng sims stayed in the pool got out finally to leave and went to bathroom in the yard.  I don't know if I'm the only one having this problem or not.

Edit: Ok the thing with the sims

They seem to get out of the pool in my game sometimes after talking for only a second. what I could try is to check their motives & make them get out if they have to eat or use the restroom.

[toriamos]

Thanks, I really don't know why this is happening maybe some other hack I might have in the game, don't know for sure. I'll have a look in my hack folder and see if I have anything that might be causing this.
 
Just notice the new ver. I'll try it thanks.
