Now, though, I wonder if the telescope's failure to function in my game was really a FT problem or if it was just due to the original borkenness.
Yes. It has always been borked, so I was joyful to see that Lord Darcy had fixed updated it.
Alchemy Telescope was updated again. Now clickable area is correctly assigned. Flashlight beam mesh was added for Summon Aliens interaction, though it's still a bit off.
Huzzah! Thanks again, LD!

Yes, and I have used them!
I have been really into updating abandoned content lately. Here's an object that's needed updating since Bon Voyage:Xanathon's PC
My period Sims really need to have a PC in Uni, and nothing but this looks appropriate.
Here's a pic:
And finally, if Xanathon wishes, I will happily remove this download if he will update it himself.
Major fix: I accidentally uploaded the wrong file. Please redownload for the computer updated for Freetime.

Updating computers to FT:
Object Data > RAW Data > Select Decimal > 07. Resource cross-refs > Interaction Table ID 128 -> 129. Commit.
Additional step for updating computers to be Uni compatible:
To enable "Write Term Paper" for YAs, you need to make sure that the custom computer has a reference to Term Paper computer screen movie.
Look for Text Lists (STR#) > Model - Materials. Set the language to English, and see if you can find these strings:
0x0F EP1 New Movies
0x10 computer_typetext_movie1
0x11 computer_typetext_movie2
If you can, you're done. But if you can't, you must add these strings after existing ones, otherwise YAs will reset out of the custom computer when they're trying to write term papers.
I attached updated resource as usual, but you should NOT use it to replace the whole resource when there are existing strings starting with ##0x1C050000!. If you do, all custom computer screens will revert to Maxis defaults.
To keep custom computer screens intact, you have to manually add those strings by yourself.
1. In Plugin View, set the language to English. Click Add button several times to add new strings until you reach 0x0015(21).
2. Click the first newly added line, 0x000E. Click Replace string button on the left. A popup window will come up.
Click ComputerGlobals tab, select 0x0088 Model - Materials, and click Okay.
3. A new popup window will come up. Choose the same line as you chose in Plugin View, 0xE. Click OK. The 0x000E string will be replaced with the blank string.
4. Repeat the same process for all newly added lines up to 0x15. Click Commit File and save.
You may have to sell and re-buy custom computers for them to pick up the change.

First, thanks tons for all this. Very helpful.
Second, I don't find anywhere to update custom stoves. I imagine it's not an easy and simple fix, but I have one I'd like to see updated. Actually, it's boblishman's ceramic hob. It hasn't been updated since base game. I don't feel competent to just dive in. Any suggestions/ideas/links that would be helpful?
