Could anyone be so nice and check on "youngadultshoppers" by Squinge (I have not found it on the list)?
I have a feeling it might be broken!
I also would be thankful for a description of this hack, since I seem to have lost mine. I cannot remember what the hack was supposed to do besides enabling the young adult shoppers - which I had supressed, so it must have been something else I was keeping this hack for, but stupid me simply cannot remember :-\...
youngadultshoppers.package: may require possible updates:
B 0x7F028F29 0x101A Non-Family Array - Fill with Eligible Sims
Might be ok though, test it with no other hacks installed.

FYI. It is probably a bad idea to use hacks that report as requiring an update, but appear to still work without any object errors. The reason is... something might have changed drastically, but might still work if the older version still has valid code. Valid, meaning that, all the lines in the BHAV can still work in the game and/or doesn't interact with any new stuff.
However, even though it appears like the hack might be ok, because you don't get any object errors, this can be misleading. There could be code changes that is supposed to handle new stuff that was added, but now will be totally ignored because you are essentially running older versioned code. Even something as 'simple' as a change in a TTAB/TTAs (Pie Menu and/or Pie Menu Strings) can cause problems. For example, new options might have been added, but since you are running older code, those options won't show up. So, unless you have a modder that actually verifies that whatever changes occurred do not actually matter, I would recommend that you not use older hacks that reported to require updating by the paladintool.

I think Pescado's customer selector has an option to allow YAs, so you don't necessarily need Squinge's mod. I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong about this.
jsalemi:
No, you're right -- the customer selector gives control over a whole bunch of sim states, including age. However, it only works on owned lots. I don't know if Squinge's was for only owned lots, or if it let YAs visit any comm lot in the main hoods.

Ok Ste ;) I will not use any hacks like that then. Only clean updated stuff in going in my game from now on!
