INSTRUCTIONS:
Place in your MYDOCU~1\EAGAME~1\THESIM~1\DOWNLO~1 directory.
FEATURES:
1. Neighbor behavior in apartments now depends on furniture installed inside
their apartments and common area: Motives restored on going into apartments
depends on what furniture that the neighbors have in there, and neighbors
leaving their apartment will do so to resolve motives based on things
located in the common area.
2. Neighbors will not suddenly run off for no reason while you are trying to
interact with them.
3. Neighbors will not emerge and stand around for hours with nothing to do.
4. Rent-payer hour moved to hour that is non-suicidal for vampire tenants.
5. Cash exploit for fixtures removed: You can no longer receive free cash
merely for moving into an apartment and then moving out because you are not
charged for the value of fixtures, but are still credited for them on move
out: Sims must pay an initial deposit equal to the sell value of fixtures
in their apartment, which is returned via the normal move-out process.
6. Option to rent furnished integrated with above: Door will display two
rental prices, the higher deposit value being the furnished price.
7. Going to work/on errands no longer magically restores neighbors. Work motive
drain is equivalent to the normal drain for their particular job and level.
Errands will still restore typical motives, much like your own sims can go
and green on community lots (Gain Hunger/Soc/Fun/etc., energy not so much).
8. Apartments made functional in universities: YAs can now rent apartments and
generated NPC apartment neighbors will spawn as YAs and go to class.
9. Fixed bug where sims were going home into the wrong apartments.
A. Landlord will not host gathering if pizza person does not exist (no spam!),
or if swarm of resulting Zergs exceeds legal visitor max (major lag!).
COMPATIBILITY:
This hack is fully compatible with all FFS hacks. For TS2AL+.
SIDE EFFECTS:
May cause computer damage, incontinence, explosion of user's head, coma, death,
and/or halitosis.
WARNING:
Do not open, crush, dispose of in fire, put in backwards, short-circuit, or mix
with non-awesome hacks - may explode, leak, or catch fire, resulting in injury
and/or death.
Emma:
This is excellent, especially for number eight. Does anything have to be placed in the apartments, such as the paintings for the Ingelogical version of this hack?
Crash:
Ohh, new shiny!
Does this hack affect roommates in any way?
Edit: Thanks for the reply - this hack is truly awesome!

No. Rather than indicating what motives are present in apartments and in the common area, you place the actual motives. It prevents user error and allows the apartments to behave individually rather than globally. So if you want ONE particular sim to NOT COME OUT, you can furnish his apartment with all the things necessary to satisfy everything and thus prevent emergence, while if you want others to be more sociable, place those items in the common area instead.

Behavior of roommates has not been extensively examined but some improvements have been incorporated, such as errands no longer refilling every single motive perfectly, causing roommates to react slightly more normally.
JediKnight:
Ooooh! Shiny! :D
If a Sim rents the apartment in it's furnished state, am I correct in presuming only the initial rent payment is modified, and all subsequent rent payments are at the standard unfurnished rate?
