Updating CC for AL
Lord Darcy:
Attached updated resources for all three types of stereos, from the base game up to AL. In addition to new BCON and BHAV for Apartment noise, a couple of existing BHAVs were updated too.
You have to pick the right type from which your custom stereo was cloned.
Stereo - BoomBox: tabletop small stereosStereo - Moderate: 1-tiled floor stereosStereo - Expensive: 2-tiled floor stereos
Make sure to delete TTAB from your custom stereo to enable all post-BV functions.
Known issue: Tinkering is still unavailable for custom stereos. This is due to the lazy coding on EAxis's part, and cannot be circumvented unless you build private Tinker BHAVs for each custom stereo. More information is posted in this thread.
To enable Tinkering in custom stereos, get Argon's Tinker by Proxy GUID hack.
Sometimes the creator cloned the stereo not from Maxis original but from other custom stereo, breaking Fallback GUID upon which Argon's hack relies. If so, you have to fix the Fallback GUID of custom stereo accordingly.
0x9AC9AA83 stereo expensive -> 2-tiled base game stereo
0x2C7B5B6B stereo moderate -> 1-tiled base game stereo
0xD3EB1C4C stereo woodcomfy -> FT Vintage Stereo

*tinker by proxy guid hack magically appears
It works for any clones with intact fallback guids for the expensive stereo, moderate (single tile), and the vintage stereos.
For reference:
0x9AC9AA83 stereo expensive
0x2C7B5B6B stereo moderate
0xD3EB1C4C stereo woodcomfy
UPDATE: added check for NL Jukebox (not by GUID though, it's by Valid EP Flag 1 not being set to 1 so clones won't accidentally be enabled.)

Thank you very much. :) If only EAxis had the sense to assign category or maintenance type (like TVs) to stereos as well. It would have been more convenient.
In case the fallback GUID is mangled (like cloning from another custom stereo), this hack will work if you fix Fallback GUID to match the original Maxis stereo, is it correct?

Mine are updated to FT but they don't have the AL options ???
If you've fixed the OBJD correctly to refer the semiglobal, bookcases should work fine in AL as well.
Lord Darcy:
As of FT, bookcases no longer use local pie menu (TTAB, TTAs). No need to update TTAB/TTAs, as they are now only vestigial.
Crash:
Thanks for this! I have actually updated CC all by myself now, and it worked nicely. But I have a question. There's a .bak file generated sometime when I edit the .package files (possibly when I save?). What is it for, and why is it generated?
