Perfect for multi-apartment lots! Thanks Dave Luv.
I've got just the place to try it.

Thanks to all for using my stuff

Corvistic: I guess recoloring with just using CEP will not work in this case, because I did some fixes in GMND of Multi Alarm. But you can try it and let me know

There should be no problem when recoloring the Fire Detector item, which uses the same mesh like Multi Alarm and where I haven't changed the trees.

Great object, thanks. I just realised that I don't seem to get the burglar anymore in my game, guess I need to see if I have some sort of hack that I didn't know about.

Thanks

roxxy: In many cases the burglar visits the lot only once even without using any hack - it depends on many things. The game checks if the actual date is „Burglar Day“, then if some conditions have been met - e.g. if there is nobody outside the house, if the Sims are sleeping etc. The burglar will also no more visit the room he was caught in ;o).

If you are interested, I can finish an item I created for testing Multi Alarm - I call it Burglar Scheduler. When placed on the lot, it makes the burglar coming immediately

This item has no graphics at the moment, I could finish it tomorrow in the evening and upload it at Simsky on Wed.

Hehe, I have to get up in about 5 hours, time for me to go to bed

That would be great if you could. Sounds like an awesome item.

Hi there, I am back from my day off I spent with kids - I am sooooo tired ;o).

Corvistic: Thanks for checking the recolor stuff

Mojo: I will try to finish the Burglar Scheduler during this week - too tired for creating the graphics today

If somebody is interested in creating new items as joint projects (you would create meshes or at least textures for new items and I would do the programming of new interactions), just let me know.

We just released Burglar Scheduler at Simsky.parsimonious.org and at Simsky.wz.cz . We created this object primarily for Multi Alarm testing.

View this picture... and a burglar comes in a moment

Compatibility: EP Ready (works in all game versions).
This object does not require CEP.

Our items do not replace any game files.

underworld_imp: Thanks

I tested all the objects in base game version / University / US version / Europe version, so I don't expect any problems

A note to the future: If somebody could test our items in future EPs (Business+) or in Asia language versions of the game (Japanese etc.), just let me know.

Has anyone determined if this works in NightLife or not???

** Edit: okay, I went to the site and it says that this works with "all game versions". Is it safe to assume that means NL? There is not a specific meantion of NL. This could mean that it works with original and original plus Uni. Thanks in advance for the info!

:wave:

Download the Custom Content Manager from Maxis found here The Sims 2 Content Manager. With that tool, it will let you know if the item is compatible with NL by showing up in blue. If the item aint compatible with NL, it shows up in red.

You also get the option to enable or disable an object you dloaded for the game.

I also think MTS2 has a similar program that determines objects that are compatible with NL, and one's that aint.

Dave this obj works in NL, I used it in my custom neighborhood... ...keep those hacks coming :thumb:

Thanks :)

enchantedw0lf: Yes, it works in Nightlife too. It is not a global hack, but a new item, so it cannot bring any problems to your game

underworld_imp: Many thanks for testing it in NL

I still don't have this EP, but even without it I am just working on See Them 2.2

I expect my remaining hacked objects are compatible with Nightlife and future EPs too (because their bhav code does not use semiglobals). And I am sure in case of the Fireproof cooking mod, because it was already tested in all games.

My other stuff? Final version of See Them 2.2.1 has been just finished - cheat activator / censorship remover for all game versions (including Nightlife - with that Quaxi's mod as a plugin

).
