Apartment Life: Obligatory Hate/Love Topic
Menaceman:
So many errors! I expected a few as per usual but not this many.
I got the game three days ago and haven't had chance to play as I've been too busy downloading the fixes for stuff people have found so far.
I've found some stuff too that I haven't seen mentioned.
- The gold and silver textures on the 'Eloquent Divinity Living Chair', 'Curvaceous Love' love seat and the 'Riveting Rivets' sofa don't work properly. They deform the shape of the rivets and poke through where they shouldn't. The bronze recolour works fine.
- The molded belts and cornice outer corner pieces can't be used because of the placement restrictions. They have to be placed against a wall but they are designed so that they need to be placed where there is no wall.
- 'Vim's Ventilation Small Wall Vent' and the large version too, can't be placed over floor objects as although it is a wall object it seems to need to occupy a floor tile. It can be placed above kitchen counters but then it raises itselve into the room above!
- The two 'Pipeline Decoratives' that touch the floor can intersect with other floor objects as they are classed as wall decorations.
If I had any idea on how to fix these issues without a compatable version of SimPE I would give it a shot but I haven't really got the necassary knowledge. I only hope somebody else out there can correct them or that an AL compatible version of SimPE comes out soon so that I can try and utilise that.
Is SimPE still alive btw?

The witches out of the box are severely underwhelming. There are only *TWO* potions that are actually NEW to the game, the rest being repackaged shit that they've already sold us. Of the spells, most of the are duplications of things we either already have, or could easily make. Most of the rest are just useless.
I was (stupidly) expecting actual useful spells...or at least entertaining spells.
You can't even use the "start fire" spell on people or in comm lots, so what's the point?
Only the good witch gets a house cleaning spell...or a love spell? What's that about? I'm pretty sure that magically seducing someone is evil.
Also, I was hoping for potions that affect personality...I mean, sure, you can do that with cheats, but still...
and what about spells that either fulfull wants (good) or fears (bad)..that's where some real fun would be...instead, you can just make people sick?
SnootCB:
So... has anyone tried building an apartment lot with cars already in place before moving any sims in? So, say you planned to move in 2 families; then you should be able to place 2 driveways and 2 cars before moving those families in. I don't know how well you'd be able to claim those cars for one particular sim though, or even if you'd be able to use them properly. Anyone? I don't have AL so I can't check it out yet.

I'm thinking you should be able to hack this similarly to the method Goggalor used to make yards off foundations work. Invisible walls/fencing. Place the driveway extension piece at the sidewalk using the moveobjects cheat. Use invisible fencing/wall to seal off any areas you want to appear open. Seal off the rest using fencing or half walls. Sims should then be able to place their own cars as well as use them.
You'd have the animation issue present with street parking. Cars would fade in and fade out. No biggie. Will test.
EDIT: Works!

Yes. I used witch's 8 Bedroom Monster and turned it into a boarding house of sort, and my playable was able to use either of the two cars already on the lot.
