It's a good habit to always delete the 'scriptCache.package' file when you install or replace a scripted mod.

Updates

• November 25th, 2012
  • Massive code cleaning after all the major changes I made :P
  • Any change to the Settings will affect running interactions. (i.e. If a Sim is currently studying a Level 1 skill and you set the threshold to 2, the interaction will be stopped cos the Sim can't learn it anymore)
  • Added new setting : "Logic". See details in the "Settings" section
  • Added new setting : "Writing". See details in the "Settings" section
  • Added new setting : "Show Hidden Skills". See details in the "Settings" section
  • Added new setting : "Show Settings Menu on Terrain". See details in the "Settings" section
  • The Settings dialog will stick until you close it
  • Settings have been rebuilt with a new dialog menu. See attached pictures
  • Improved startup of the mod, mainly how interactions are being added to all Computers
  • JunJayMdM.StudySkillsOnline V10

Game Version : 1.38 up to 1.42

It may work on previous patch Levels too, but it's only been tested and proved working on 1.38 up to 1.42, so use it at your own risk.

Conflicts

Unlikely. This mod will hardly ever conflict with another one since it only adds new interactions. The worst it can happen is that it won't work, if you have a Core mod installed that changes the resources used by my mod. As far as I know, no such mod exists.

Known Issues and Quirks

• The Gambling Skill doesn't show any thumb in the list, EA didn't add one.

Description

I've been wanting a mod like this since I started playing TS3, but back then I had no clue how to make one...then EA came with the Tablet that would let your sims learn skills with a podcast but it didn't really satisfy me, that's not what I wanted.
Finally I realized the mod I've been dreaming of!

This mod simply adds a "Study Skills Online" menu to all computers (yes, laptops too), where you can choose skills for your sims to learn.
Once a skill has been chosen , your sim will start using the computer (I recycled the 'Browse Web' animation for that, it seemed the most appropriate).

Now let's get into details :

• If you have the Online Center mod installed, you will find the "Study Skills Online..." menu button under the "Online Center..." path.

• If you purchased The Lucky Simoleon Casino from The Sims 3 Store, the Gambling skill will be available under "Choose Skill...".

Here's a list with all the skills available :



Settings

IMPORTANT NOTE : Settings are saved separately for each save game and each world. This means that when your sim goes on vacation, settings will be different. You can still change them but remember that they will always be different from the ones you set in the Home World.



Since V7, this mod has a new interaction called "Settings...", available under the "Study Skills Online..." menu, or when clicking on the Terrain (if enabled).

In "Settings..." there are 10 options available, which basically allow the user to change a tunable value. So, what before was achieved with an XML inside the package, can now be achieved while playing.

Click the button below to see the specifics for each option.



Translation

The skill names are directly taken from the game, so they're completely localized for all languages (except some Hidden Skills, they can't be translated).
Settings are not available for translation. Why? Because they can be compared to the explanations here on the thread and it's easier for me to provide help for them.
If you feel like translating them, check if it "Needs Update", then read the instructions.





Notes

• You don't need to have EPs installed, it will work fine with the Base Game only, as long as your game is patched up to date.

• The Gambling skill is available only if you purchased The Lucky Simoleon Casino from The Sims 3 Store.

• No matter how much it cries, no matter how much it begs. Never, never feed it after midnight!

• If you find bugs in this mod, call the exterminator or simply report them to me
