Apartment Life: Obligatory Hate/Love Topic

<< < (31/67) > >>

kiki:
as I was saying in #grah last night, what happens with driveways in apartments shits me right up the wall. IZ BORKD. you can't have just a driveway piece in an apartment, you have to have a driveway piece and a garage with the connecting piece inside it - coz if you try and put a car on the driveway outside the apartment, you can't. you can't even do it with cheats >.< hell, you can't even put an outside light in the garden outside your door...eagerly awaiting a MATY fix for that PoC.

Things that are bugging me:
-closets only work for "dress for work" (*someone said this has something to do with Squinge's Preg.-wear-anything, and that there's a fix, but I haven't been able to find it.  Could someone please post the link?)

There is no fix for Squinge's mod, however I believe there is another mod that works in a similar fashion (I think it might be by Dizzy).  Why are you running AL with outdated mods?

-the school bus hasn't come! Kit isn't losing any grade points but he also never has a chance to bring his grades up from the C he transitioned into childhood with.  His mom can't drive him to school either.

He can walk to school.  Click on him between 8am and 9am, and select "walk to school".  I haven't had any problems with school buses not coming, it could be a glitched lot, or it could be that you have an outdated mod in your downloads (Since you said you have one, then you probably have others).  Try running the game without your downloads and see if the problem still occurs.

-calling service-NPCs is borked again.  It was broken with FT, then it got fixed, and now it's broken again.

Works for me, maybe it's another outdated mod issue?  Then again, I never use the cellphones to hire a service NPC, I always use the fixed phone.  Are you using a cellphone or a fixed phone to hire service-NPCs?

-none of the neighbors or new townies have phones; everytime my sims go to call any of the AL townies, the message about not being able to call people without phones comes up.  Do my sims really have to go around gifting those shmucks phones?

I haven't had any problems with not being able to call any of the new townies.

Kyna, I think they mean the bug where NPCs weren't available to call for socialization, not for hiring. Paladin had a fix for FT, no idea if it works for AL.

[Butler related stuff]


Should I be able to tell him to do things?  Because I can't.  The only way I can get him to make a meal non-autonomously is to Influence him.

I didn't tell him to prepare meals (obviously, the only thing you can tell him is how to handle visitors). He cooked autonomously when my sim had a certain hunger level (<50%, I think) or when he had guests. Surprisingly, the butler seems to take fresh food into account. Before the first harvest, he always served rather filling meals like filet mignon or nectarine tartlets (I have the restaurant meals unlocked), but as soon as the first tomatoes where in the fridge, he served mac and cheese. And he never touched my stocked fish.

Tsarina - Your avatar freaks me out. I swiped at my monitor twice before realizing there's no creepy crawly there.  ;D
Same here. Beat the crap out of my monitor with a flyswatter.

I've been hearing that quite a lot. I guess I could switch my avatar to something less horrifying if it's that bad.
Edit: are you silly, entomophobic people happy now? Are talking muffins less disturbing to you? Huh? HUH?

I liked your buggy avatar! It fit this thread nicely, don't you think?  ;)

No really, now that I know it's not a real bug I don't have a problem with it. A BIG bug, yes, I'd have problems with. DO NOT WANT big bugs. Or spiders. Or snakes. Not even pixelated ones.


I don't mind spiders and snakes, but no cockroaches lol. But Tsarina, I wasn't complaining. I got a huge laugh outta the fact I actually swiped at my monitor a few times to find it's just a moving pixel buggy :D  you didn't hafta change it.

It's the one titled magic-al1d.zip .. if you click on it, and instead of save, click Open, then pull only the global-allow-pregnant-outfits.package .. it replaces Squinge's outdated preg mod.  I put this in, zapped Squinge's and voila, my closets work for something more than woohooing in.  There are other mods in there I found useful, but keep in mind they are Non-Awesome. The preg mod doesn't conflict with anything that I've noticed so far though.
