Still not making sense. All you have to do to put a custom wall, floor, or ground into AGS is to add it to the downloads folder for that AGS game. It will already have all the Maxis content, including build content, appropriate to the game configuration that game is set up for.

I'd like to see something to automatically hide any 0/0 relationships in the panel. Sometimes it's easy to get fifty zillion of them.

A filter to sort just the playable Sims in ANY type of phone book/directory/selection screen.
Mainly the phone book though.

Monique made a mod that does something like that. Like her other mods, it hasn't been updated in a long time. I haven't tried this one, so I can't say whether it works. I don't see any complaints in the support thread, though.

I'd like a hack that shows the cinematics for kids I send to University, when I merge them into an existing household. I have to keep a spare dorm just to see the movie, and it's a bit of a bother. :-(

That reminds me, I'd love a decorative dorm that looks like a registration office and ignores the dorm part. If you have inteen you have to put all teens in a dorm first in order for them to age up to YA's, and it's a pet peeve of mine that teens that are the kind to live in a private residence have to be dropped off at a dorm. Would make so much more sense to have the cut scene happen at a building that looks like the place to register on your first day, that's zoned as dorm just to fit inteen-requirement. Go there to age up, then move on to the appropriate housing for that teen.

I have tried it and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work, or I couldn't get it to work for me
(I have all games installed by disk. If that makes a difference from someone who might have UC.)

Gummilutt, you should be able to do that with no problem. Just build a place the looks like a registration office and has things you'd like your teen to do right away (such as computers for declaring majors, a clothes rack to fix the probable fashion emergency, and so on), as a residence. Change the zoning to dorm. And there you go.

A few things I like to put in an admissions office:
1. Monique's computer - for Sims to take out loans or take money from their bank accounts.
2. Pescado's college clock thingy - to pause the college clock so they don't lose any time on the setting-up.
3. Christianlov's clothing rack - all my Sims are entitled to a free set of clothes on age-up.
4. Christianlov's 'adults to to college' billboard thingy.
5. Veranka ported a bunch of stuff from TS3 University Life, so I like to stick the information booths and whiteboards somewhere to make it look a bit more like an actual college place.

Always want more walls and stage options... Scriptorium suppose support custom walls and stages/foundations/decks but I never seen any?

Would love half-wall that half of original half-wall size that actually allow you put own wall covering on it and shorter platform stage like TS3.

Also always wanted mod that makes plants and trees for neighborhood to use their high-quality versions you see on lots instead of low poly craptastic 2004 lod models. I would actually use neighborhood decorations in lot view option it trees not look like blurry twig...

Probably not hard to do later, all you need do is replace neighborhood decoration versions with high-quality mesh from build catalog and replace lod model for on-lot foliage with high-quality build catalog mesh too, so tree on lots appear high quality in neighborhood view too... I do it myself, but I no idea what I doing... and some it seem EAxis already had idea do this because few tree already use high quality version... Breadfruit and Cypress tree specifically. It make game look much better and more 2016-ish and more consistent and give reason to use neighborhood decoration in lot-view feature if this type mod ever happen..

Yeah, I know it's doable, and I know how to, I'm just not good at that kind of build. I meant that I wish someone else would think to create that, because I'd be all over it. The things I want that I can make myself I either make or put on the to do list, I wouldn't post about them here I might make some kind of square thing with a counter and a desk with a pc and university-letters on the outside just for the sake of it, but in my post here I meant that I'd love to see what someone actually good at this kind of thing (you know, Zarathustra-style with an eye for details us normal mortal builders just don't have) could make of it.

Not a request, just wishful thinking, you know?

That would be awesome! Will hafta do some studying though before I start creating my own objects. Editing some text in an xml file is one thing - making a modded object is another. Which tutorials would be best for someone who is starting out?

Monique's ATM with mesh and animations of netmicro's SimoBank ATM, that would be nice

Start with Echo's "Making your first custom interaction." http://www.eternal-echo.net/sims/ then do the second tutorial on that site.

Then, this is old (as in it uses a very outdated version of simPE), but it has info on spawners that will be helpful. http://sims.ambertation.de/bhavtutorialcarrigon.shtml

It'd be fun to see digging give a random chance of being electrocuted from hitting an underground wire.

Thank you for those suggestions! I'll have to play around with this idea after reading these tutorials.

Ah, but you can do that if you have a couple of hacks:

Identify those in the adoption pool.
Build a residential neighborhood adoption house (orphanage)
Create or install a pixel caretaker, and teleport all of them into the orphanage.

You can have visitors meet the orphans and see if they get along, then when they really like each other, they can be teleported into the home lot, and adopted.

You could use alternative sim surgery to copy the appearance of the adoption NPC to the pixel caretaker, pretending it's the playable and not the NPC that drops them off. That way you can still use the adoption system in place, but have the adoption center you want. Either teleport in the adoptable kids to introduce to potential parents, or move them in and use simblender to put them back up for adoption when a family is going to adopt. Since it always pulls the last child added to the pool, the kid you put up for adoption is the one the family gets if they use the phone.

IIRC, though, adopting will wipe memories of the adoptee. I prefer to manually edit the memories and family ties for this reason.

We really need an unofficial patch with combines many bugfixes possible, like SilentPatch does for GTA:SA. Downloading every fix manually is tiring, and there is tons of them.

There are only a few essential ones, the rest are more personal preference. For a lot of people 'no baby swarming' is a must but I don't use it or want it.

@CaliBrat
You could try BO's version of the hack: http://www.leefish.nl/mybb/showthread.php?tid=912
I have it in my game (installed by disk too) and it works.

I'd love a mod that lets my sims bring some of their family's money with them to college and when they graduate too. It just seems so nonsensical when the heir of the Goths goes to college and aside from her scholarships is dirt poor. And giving money to them too makes so that they have more variety of where they want to move in too after college.

Just put some objects in their inventory and cash them in.

There's also a number of money-transfer mods - Monique's computer, Pescado's money order, and SimWardrobe's chequebook off the top of my head.

Personally, I like to move my Sims into an admission office (which is actually just a dorm with Monique's computer, Christianlov's clothing rack, and a few other things) and take out loans or get money out of their bank account as needed.
