Nightlife: Censor Blur won't die!!!
Hook:
If the censor blur can't be removed with a simple cheat code, then it will be removed by a modification to the EXE file. This will be done by thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of players. And everyone with a modified EXE file will have to change the file back before installing a patch. If they don't go back to the original EXE file the upgrade will fail. Anyone wanna guess at the number of people who won't remember to do this, or won't know that they have to?
Smooth move, ExLax.

Read, gali: It causes a massive slowdown problem for a lot of us, it causes a massive distraction problem for a lot of us because it is very big and obvious, and it shows through walls and floors, ruining picture taking attempts. This is aside from any irritation on the morality involved. The blur causes very real gameplay problems.
Ancient Sim:
Well I know for sure it will drive me crazy, it always did. I will try Nightlife out and play for a while, but then I will probably remove it until there is a new patch. Apart from anything else, as our laws here are nowhere near as strict as American ones, the game should reflect this, but I know it won't. And to the person who said all you can see is Barbie dolls - NOT in my game! I see men with willies of various shapes, sizes and ... er ... stiffness, and women with varying top-half sizes (as in real-life). I don't get turned-on by them (I would worry seriously about myself if I did), but I do find that they add realism to the game. I have nudists walking about all over the place due to crammyboy's mod and I'm so used to this now it will seem very strange to see all my Sims in clothes. That, however, will be infinitely preferable to seeing naked ones covered in silly little squares. Oh, PLEASE someone sort that out ASAP.

Inge: Tom said over at MTS2 that Nightlife also uses 2 of the globals that were used by the current non-cheat mode blur patches, which I believe would still work but you'd lose some of the new Nightlife features. AFAIK it's possible to create a new one that doesn't conflict with Nightlife, but I much prefer the cheat code way because it's much cleaner than modifying the exe.
Remember when the first patch came out and tons of people couldn't patch because the patcher program refused to patch the modified exe? I suppose the best thing to do is keep a backup of the original exe, and I always do if I use some patch that modifies it, but I'd still prefer the cheat code way and am rathered irked that some attention grabbing fool who had no idea what he was talking about caused it to get yanked.
Ancient Sim:
I've just noticed something. I got my Nightlife a few minutes ago and noticed that it said 12+ on the box. I checked my Uni box, the same. Yet the base game is 7+. Now, is that because the expansions are 'naughtier', or because we've suddenly been subjected to US censorship laws over here?
