Any information on core mod compatability?

(1/5) > >>

misterK:
I've looked everywhere I can think of, and I can't find any information about this. I know that AwesomeMod is a core mod, and that it's incompatable with other core mods. I've heard that there is a mod in the works that will allow multiple core mods to coexist peacefully, but I can't find any information on it. Am I looking for the wrong term, is there no information as of yet, or is there no planned mod for this at all?

JBoat:
In my opinion, it would be a far better use of your time (and of the core programmer's time for all mods concerned), if you simply suggested the features you feel are missing for addition to one or the other core mods.  Getting two complicated pieces of code that modify very deep game elements, is like trying to get two elephants to tango.  It'd be easier and more productive to get the monkies to cha-cha, and simply improve the core mods by adding new stuff.

Besides, the makers of core mods like AwesomeMod have far too many bug fixes and feature additions on their hands right now to worry about interoperability, imo.

Well except that Pescado is in fact working with the Indie Stone guys to see if there's a way to make AwesomeMod and the Indie Stone Story Progression Rewrite mod play nice together.  Hit the link and scroll down to see what Pescado says about it.  No promises!

To answer the OP's main question, they're talking about it over on Mod The Sims in the Modding Discussion forum, but I don't see how such a thing could really be accomplished other than by careful coordination between two core modders ala the comment I posted up above. Pescado explains behind the link why it's even possible to consider that AwesomeMod and ISM might be adapted to play nice together. This possibility won't exist with every core mod.

I see what you mean, JBoat. actually, Indie Stone's mod was exactly the one I was thinking of. i hope Pescado and Indie wil be able to pull it off.
