Back Alley Sims and Chris Hatch's Family Friendly Hacks
I was discussing some of Chris Hatch's mods with joandsarah77 and I thought that it's a pity that some of his family friendly mods probably don't get as much exposure as they deserve due to having to wade through a sea of boobs in order to find them. XD
So I decided to dig out the family friendly ones I could find and post the direct links for people who want to avoid the nekkidness found while searching through BAS with all the adult hacks (Not me; I admit. I downloaded the heck out of the naughty stuff. XD). Hospital mod. I personally love this. Takes a bit of setting up, but it's worth it as you can send sick sims to hospital to be cured and send pregnant sims there to have their babies. Pick the family friendly version or your nurses will be of the slutty variety! http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...Hospital-Births Working religions. Make your own gods/goddesses and choose what morals each religion follows. You'll want to use an NPC clothing changer on the nun who is included, because she is wearing a distinctly unnunlike outfit. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...T-amp-A-A-amp-N Instructions for faith. http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...d-A-amp-N-stuff Shareable baths. No naughtiness involved (nakedness obviously, because who bathes in their clothes, but censor blurs should remain intact). Couples can bathe together and kids can bathe together as well (I remember sharing a bath with my brother when we were kids). http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...in-in-a-bathtub Buyable baby clothes. No more DRs needed and as many outfits as you can find (and your sims can afford). A lot of other sites have linked this one on their own pages, but in case anyone hasn't discovered it yet here is the original. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...uy-Baby-Clothes Bloom's baby hair (linked in the post) fixed to allow different hair for different genders. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...arate-Baby-Hair Children can pick flowers for Mum. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...an-Pick-Flowers Wedding Mat that allows you to assign female children or toddlers as bridesmaids. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...from-A-amp-N%29 Second Honeymoons. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...8BV-required%29 Wedding cake that can be eaten on Honeymoon. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...or-Honeymooners Fixed Store edition stuff. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...tems-for-any-EP Fix for the Butler Controller bug. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...-Controller-Fix Maternity outfits for teens. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...tfits-for-Teens Pregnancy relationship adjustment. No more tricking your husband into raising the maid's child as their own lol. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...ship-adjustment Turn on/off adjuster. Allows you to have more than the standard number of turn on/offs. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...On-Off-Adjuster Telescope abduction fix. I don't use this one myself as I'm not sure if it's safe to make friends with the PT, but for anyone who wants it. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...9-Telescope-Fix Controller to slow down or speed up time. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...73-Time-Control The next three all get the respective age group out of the house for a while and give them various chances to make friends/learn skills. Senior's Activity Centre http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...Activity-Centre Weekend Camping for Children http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...ng-for-Children Playgroup Phone Service http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...p-Phone-Service Childcare Centre http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...ildcare-Centres Skiing http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...hp?15726-Skiing An alternative way of handling custom NPC controllers. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...ller-(Vicky-NPC) Apartments at University http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...s-at-University Orphan Display Cot (for adopting children) http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...doption-Centres) Sims can take the bus http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...Community-Buses And a version that lets children catch a bus alone. https://app.box.com/s/15ht5u16eqx3i204bty7sayt6496injr Go to school with your kids. http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...ol-Go-To-School The ability to control ghosts and to put your sim's picture on their grave. http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...morial-Portrait Lot Cleaner http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...845-Lot-Cleaner Weather Fix for weather at community lots. http://www.modthesims.info/showthre...528#post5099528 Fixes ages of current sims to match when you install or remove an age mod. http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...917#post5248917 CAS UI fix for widescreen monitors http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...screen-monitors Market Stalls that different families can run. http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...4-Market-Stalls The Globe (visit site for description) http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...15973-The-Globe Adult Female Butlers http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...-Female-Butlers Go to work with your sims. http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...trol-Go-To-Work And finally, six that do have breasts showing, but not in a sexual way (mainly because they're regarding pregnancy). If you want these then you have been warned. Alternate pregnancy controllers. Adds a chance of miscarriage and supports continuing teen pregnancies (you still have to knock them up with something else) for people who don't want/are sick of Inteen. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...ncy-Controllers Visit other sims. Lets your sims visit other sims' houses with their own cars (nothing dodgy going on in the pictures; the model just forgot to put her shirt on lol). http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...isit-other-Sims Text Message Flirting Enabled (very skimpy outfit on one of the ladies, but the hack itself involves no nudity). http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...lirting-enabled Nurse Baby Extra. Adds a boost to the mother and baby's relationship and a cuddle at the end to Squinge's breastfeeding mod (link to Squinge's mod http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,8084.0.html). http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...urse-Baby-extra Midwife service that works with the hospital mod, for sims who want to have their baby at home. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/...-for-Homebirths Ask about another sim's family/address (naughty picture in background) http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...ly-(menu-plugin) There are a couple of other family friendly mods that are paired up with some racier ones, so if you want nickable hotel towels or a men don't hit girls hack or more sane reactions to naked sims then let me know and I could probably upload the hacks somewhere. I didn't include fashion shows or fixes for the BV Hotel maid because you can get those at Paladin's Place as well. If I missed anything or if you have any questions then let me know! And if anyone is interested in adult hacks you can find just about anything you could desire or imagine if you browse around the Back Alley Sims site. |
Charity this is a great idea but... I get a "You are not logged in or you do not have permission to access this page." page. Now since I did join I could log in (if I could remember my password but it's been ages) But anyone who isn't a member will probably have to register. I'll have to see if I can recover the password tomorrow as it's way too late over here now.
|
Ah, damn. I didn't think of that because I am a member. Yeah, I think you do need to register. The registering page is nudity free, here. http://backalleysims.com/adultsite/register.php
|
Charity, you should post what your username is over there so that I can give you credit for the referral. :P
This is probably a good place to ask this. I've actually looked at the BAS EPs a couple times, but I was always discouraged by the lack of backwards compatibility. What I mean is, I don't ever install anything in my game that I can't take out. This is basically limited to three things: custom foods, custom careers, and invisible NPC objects. Unfortunately, careers are a part of the BAS EP, but if you frequent that site often, you'd probably know how much of the stuff from the EP is available separately. I do remember reading about some stuff in the EP that sounded cool, but since careers are included, I don't want it all. I just had a hard time (or maybe a lack of patience) trying to figure out how to get just specific mods/objects rather than the whole kit and caboodle. |
My username over there is just Charity322. I looked at the EPs as well, but I just didn't want all of the stuff they had in them. I prefer to be able to pick and choose the parts I want, which is why I'm grateful that Chris has separated out quite a few things. Not all, unfortunately, but a lot. I wouldn't mind getting the working daycare separated out and the skiing.
|
Great list, Charity. Thanks for taking the time to put it together.
I have a number of Chris Hatch's mods already, but you listed a few that I've not taken a look at. Will have to do that. |

The only real difference is the bow. I tried adding extra textures and add a different mesh, but wasn't very successful. |
I've often wondered about some of his ..."stuff" - and I am registered over there. But, I just don't have enough eye-bleach to browse through everything. Thank you soooo much for this list. :lovestruc
I (and my 10 yr-old, who's always looking over my shoulder, wanting new shineys for her game too) thank YOU!!! That hospital mod has intrigued me for a looong time - must think more about it... |
Thanks Charity for saving my eyes! (And that of many others!)
|
I'm really confused with the visiting other sims mod.
Do you have to remove the complete hospital mod, and then install the visiting sims mod or just the "core" hospital mod? Because I have loads of hospital extras installed like the nurses and stuff. |
A small word of warning - some of Chris Hatch's mods conflict with other mods. It's not really his fault, there are a lot of mods out there and you can't really expect him to make his stuff compatible with everything. I'm just posting this to say if you use any game changing mods, make sure you read the instructions carefully when DL Chris Hatch's stuff. You may need to take a decision about which mod you want to use.

There is a version of the visiting other sims mod that includes the hospital mod and you need to replace the hospital mod with it like so. "The first of these (CJH_Hospital+Visit-Pets-to-AL) uses the phone dialogue instead of the travel dialogue which makes it easy to choose another family to visit. It will add 'Visit Sim' to the car's menu if conditions are right. It is available at most locations so your sims can go straight from a community lot to a friend's house. No matter what I tried, if one sim travels to a residential lot then the whole of that sim's family will travel there also, those that don't get in the car at home will be standing near the mail box when you arrive. So to keep it tidy I've made it so sims can only visit when their whole family is home and OK to travel. They can't visit other sims if they have a baby or toddler in the family (put it down to lack of child restraints). Or if a family member is at work or school. As these need to override the some of the same semi-globals as the hospital mod this first installment is an extension of the hospital mod. You will need to remove CJH_Hospitals-Pets-to-AL.Package when you put this into your DL folder." HCDU does bring up a conflict with the hospital mod and the Visitor Controller, but if you make sure that the hospital mod loads last then they seem to work together. |
Again, be careful with that visitors mod. Make SURE no Sims leave or that no new ones enter the lot. A couple of us did get grayed-out build and buy sections that we just couldn't get rid of until we moved everyone out of the affected house and back in again. Personally, I would use the Blender to ban as many Sims as possible until the visit has been completed. That might cut down on the number of walkbys who might decide to enter the lot and flap their arms the moment a stove catches on fire. Or use a no-fire mod. That might work better, since it will hopefully stop a firefighter from entering the lot. Watch out for maids and gardeners as well, I would surmise.
I forgot the shared tub one was there. Yes ... you can be innocent or not innocent with it, as you wish. I had a problem with the alternative teen pregnancy controllers, though. I didn't want to use Inteen, but was curious about teen pregnancy. However, I couldn't get the mod to work, even after reading the explanation and all the comments. At the time, though, I had only up to Seasons. Perhaps it works better with all EPs. |
Well I grabbed the wedding mat and the visitor one. I hope it doesn't conflict with community lot time, so I downloaded walk only as for me community lot time only works if they use a taxi so hopefully the two will be separate.
|
Thanks for doing this, Charity. I am not one who's bothered by boobs, but I just can never find anything on that site! I think I registered long ago...but I don't remember what username/password I set up. Time to experiment!
|
That pregnancy relationship adjustment is soooo tempting. I wish it came in more flavors, though. A slightly higher logic skill required for the husband to realize it's not his kid, maybe...and I feel like I'd like other factors than just the teen's grades affecting how mad her parents are. I might get it anyway, though. It's always annoyed me how silly some sim spouses are about that.
(Side story--I remember that being one of the first things I tested in The Sims 3, to see if they'd made it any better. I had a heartbreaker girl seduce Agnes Crumplebottom and marry her, then my chick got pregnant by someone else and she announced her pregnancy to Agnes. Agnes was overjoyed. >.< Silly woman! You're lesbians! She cheated on your dumb butt! XD) |
Editing the logic skill required in SimPE shouldn't be hard to do. Not sure about the grade thing. What other factors were you thinking of?
I have to admit that I didn't get the visiting mod. I couldn't see that it would do anything that teleporting a sim in and making them temporarily selectable wouldn't do. |
I think a logic skill of four or five would be better. A lot of my sims are chess fiends, so three logic points are pretty common.
For the teen's relationship with her parents, a couple ideas were floating around in my mind. I think parents with a LTR of 80 or more towards the teen shouldn't get the drop at all, since they love their kid and are supportive. Maybe aspiration should be a factor, too; for example, a parent with a Romance or Family aspiration shouldn't be as upset because Romance would understand that condoms break sometimes, and Family would be excited to have a grandchild. Fortune would be pretty upset, because it's another mouth to feed. Knowledge would be disappointed that the teen will have a harder time going to college, and should have paid more attention in sex ed. Popularity and Pleasure would probably be in between, because they're upset at the kid, but both aspirations have always seemed like very hands-off parents to me, and would probably figure it was the teen's own problem. |
Another potential downside to that pregnancy adjuster would be if the player had a "female sims get pregnant from alien abduction, too" mod in a super-nerdy Knowledge sim couple. The husband/boyfriend would certainly have enough logic points to know it's not his and the fury would be unwarranted because alien abduction.
...Though that could be played off as him being extremely jealous that she got abducted -- and alien pregnant -- and he didn't. And it would give the player a bit of DRAMA for their little hive of geekery: do they break up? do they come to an agreement that only he gets to be abducted from here on out (denying her the experience of going up into space)? does she just say "be that way" and continue sticking her eye to the telescope? etc. (The alien pregnancy rage would be even sillier for same-sex couples who are reproducing via abduction.) |
I asked Chris Hatch about that actually. There is a check to see if the father is the PT and if he is then there is no relationship drop.
|
Has anyone played with the religion mod? I'm wondering if the example rules that Chris gives in the instructions are an exhaustive list - 'cause they mostly seem to be about fucking, and that's an aspect of religious interference that I don't find very stimulating story-wise. :P
|
Those are pretty much all of them. You could probably add others though.
|
Maybe, but... I think the amount of work I'd have to put in to make the mod do what I'd want it to would be a bit disproportionate to the reward. I'd want an "It's encouraged" option for starters (mainly so I can make a cult of bitchy warriors who get into fistfights at every opportunity), and I imagine the code which decides what a sim will or won't do and when is probably very, very complex... and would be a pain in the arse to duplicate and make work for different interactions.
|
LOVE LOVE LOVE the wedding mat!
He said in the comments if he could get the father to walk his daughter down the aisle, that would be amazing but I don't think he's gonna do it. |
Another thought about the pregnancy relationship adjuster--it would probably be much harder than making the changes I already mentioned, but I think the parents should have an unconditional one-way relationship drop towards anyone their pregnant teen is romantically involved with. I like the idea of my sim parents holding the father accountable as well, and it wouldn't specifically have to be the correct father. They'd just naturally be more suspicious and on their guard.
|
I have the VISIT SIMS MOD, it's cool :D
|
I have registered with BAS in order to download some of the things that Charity linked to. In order to register I had to agree to "not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented". . .
So clearly I won't find anything like that on Back Alley Sims, Will I? |
*lol at AndrewGloria's post* Yeah, I just can't bring myself to register on a site that I have no intention of surfing on or visiting again. My Sims game is full of cotton candy clouds and rainbows and I like it that way (okay, maybe not that pure, but still).
Still, thanks for trying to help us find the family-friendly section, Charity. It's just too bad about the registration, although I understand why they'd want visitors to register. |
My sims kept getting this weird error when getting carpools so I removed all his mods :p
I'm just a scaredy cat! |
Lol Andrew, that's funny.
Mods can clash Mumty, but your best bet is to read up carefully as sometime read me's will mention if it clashes with another mod. best to remove one at a time. Sometimes one mod needs to load before or after another and you do that by placing a few 'aaa' or 'zzz' at the start of the file name. If you installed a mod that creates NPC's do NOT pull it. Pulling corrupts your hood. If you installed Chris's Hospital mod you will need to put it back right away as it does create NPC's. That or start a new neighbourhoods. Also make sure to install and keep a Super Hug fix mod in at all times as pulling social mods may result in this Maxis made code coming out of your installation files and showing up in your game play where all your sims do autonomously is hug, all the time. Boiling Oils No Sim Loaded is one fix and if you put that in and never remove it you won't ever get the Super Hug. |

Yeah, I had to re-register because I forgot the login I created there eons ago, and when I read that, knowing what's to be had on that site, I just about died laughing. I mean, seriously? Obviously, they pulled the language from some generic legal CYA blather somewhere but...yeah. Lots of laughter over here. There were tears, even. But, even though I have a shiny new registration, I still haven't downloaded anything, although I'm interested in a few things. It's just that I'm wary because of all my other mods. I'll have to be in the right mood to possibly deal with with figuring out load order and such before I download anything and, so far, I haven't been in such a mood. |
I had forgotten my log in as well, but it has a retrieve/reset password thingame, I just put in my email address and it sent me a new password.
|
Yeah. Tried that. Couldn't remember what email I used to register the first time. I tried the most likely candidates, but they didn't work, and I didn't feel like going through the dozens of possibilities. I have/have had a lot of email addresses, I'm afraid, most of them spam-catchers. Plus, there's no guarantee I'd remember the login for the email address I'd used even if I stumbled on the right one. Sooooo, it was just easier to create a new login using my current spam-catcher email addy.
|
LOL Andrew
|
Someone mentioned the time controller in another thread and seeing as I hadn't found that I tracked it down and added it to the list.
|
Since Chris Hatch allows posting on other sites, I'll have to get them up on my site....
|
I am trying out the "visit other sims" hack...i never knew it was possible!
|
Would it be even remotely possible to unravel the coding that creates the school and the childcare centre in his A&N stuff mod? I am desperate to have both of those in my game (I can live without the hospital, as I'd prefer to play my doctors myself, but if necessary, I'd be okay with it.) I ask this as someone willing to volunteer for the task if someone better at coding is willing to split the job with me!
|
Simlogical already has a school.
|
Thank you for doing this
|
The hospital absolutely requires A&N right, and definitely creates NPCs? I've been pondering it for a while, and will probably continue pondering until I end up with a computer that can no longer play TS2... And are the wedding mat and the flowers for Mom safe to pull if you decide you don't like them? Or do they break things when you pull them?
|
Not to sound to blonde here, but .. umm.. what's A&N?
|
Angels & Nurses. It's Chris Hatch's religion-and-hospital mod that is complicated enough and big enough to effectively be another EP. (Expansion Pack.)
I wouldn't mind a hospital in my game, but I don't want any religious stuff. Personal preference, that's all -- it's cool if other people do. |
Not sure on the wedding mat as I haven't used it, does it produce a priest? If so that would be an NPC. The flowers are just that, a bunch of flowers in the child's hand that goes to mums inventory.
|
I have the wedding mat. It does NOT produce a priest or anything else. It does grab a couple of girls, if available, from the family you're playing, to be flower girls/bridesmaids. If there aren't any available, it's just like using a regular arch. Oh, I think it plays a snitch of music, too. I'm not sure if the arches do that or not. And, I don't ever have the videos on, so can't tell you if there's one of those.

No and yes. The version I linked to doesn't require T&A or A&N, but the nurses and doctors are NPCs. From when the safe to delete question was asked. If the memories (CJH_Hospital_Memory.package, CJH_MemBabyAdoptOut.package) were installed and have been used then they should never be removed. NPCs use the template they were created from for pie menus and op-codes so unless you can delete the nurses you should keep the nurse templates and nurse skin. The doctor NPCs would have been added into your neighbourhood and some sims may have formed relationships and memories that depend on them so it would be safest to keep them installed. (they should be in the service sim family so you'll never see them in game without hospitals). After removing all hospitals from your neighbourhoods it should be safe to delete everything else. |

I am registered on that site - I've never downloaded anything at all because I can't find anything and I gave up - yet they sent me a nice e-mail congratulating my on my b-day last year
@AndrewGloria - laughing for days now |
There is a new hack on BAS that seems fairly family-friendly, although I have not yet tried it out. It enables game code that allows sims to flirt via text message. I hesitate to link to the page itself, because it has an illustration with naughty bits (I think just because that's how Chris Hatch plays his game, not because the texts are naughty), but here is a description of what the hack does:
Quote:
|
Aww, that sounds cute!
Next time i'm on BAS i will definitely have a look at it! :D |
Is there a way to delete an account on the site? I tried it, but honestly my morals are repulsed by like 90 percent of the garbage on there. It's so pervy.
|
How would we know here? I guess just don't sign in. They probably purge unused accounts after a while. Most places do (I think).
|
Does anybody else find it kinda funny that the only place to get a Religon mod from is a site with a lot of NSFW stuff on it?
|

Updated the original post with the text flirting mod and the extra for Squinge's breastfeeding mod that I missed the first time.
|
She's not done beta-testing it yet, but Almighty Hat is working on a G-rated religion mod, which I'm really excited about! Her post is here.
|
Added the new ones that Chris made recently, like the Skiing and the Playgroup.
|
The other day I had zoned out while watching John Mole (he's kind of boring) when all the sudden he went to the phone and dialed. There was a woohoo icon in his queue. I hadn't put it there, of course, he was all alone. Anyway, he called Violet Jocque (still a teen), and she hurried over and went to bed with him. I was stunned. I thought, in all these years, I've never seen such a thing. Then it occurred to me, this was probably a BAS thing.
|
Nah, ACR booty call and InTeen (or some other teen woohoo mod). I had Denise Jacquet try to booty call Johnny Smith.
|
Quote: Originally posted by ihatemandatoryregister

Sometimes I use the ACR adjuster phonebook to zero out the timers and have them make a booty call just to see who shows up. It can be pretty surprising.
|
Charity, looks like Chris added a new mod today, Apartments at University (young adults can now rent apartments) http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...s-at-University.
I do not play the separate university neighborhoods anymore, but thought those that do might be interested. |
Can I lie about my age for registration if I'm just on there to grab the apartments at university mod? I've been looking for that for 146909543 years.
|
@alljoj - check your PMs

John's woohoo timer must have got to 0 which means, he looks at who is "The One", calls them up, and fun times ensue... It can definitely have surprising and unexpected effects when you haven't had a sim date or even flirt with anyone before. |
Huh?! I've always been able to play apartments at university. Why do you need a mod?
|
Do you have Pescado's apthack? That enables apartments at uni. When I tried it sans hack it didn't work properly but I can't remember many details.
|
WTF? I just went to check out that apt mod and it says I'm banned? No reason specified?

I have only been banned once in my life now. |
I think it's if you never posted as well. So if you find a vaguely interesting thread to comment on once then maybe it won't happen.

It is more as if somebody had a bad day and decided to ban users left and right. Let's start a club
|
I tried to go to the website and download the mods, but apparently I"m blocked from them and the ban lifted date is Never. What's that about?

Odd. Did they actually woohoo? Didn't think that was possible for teen woohoo wtihout hack.
EDIT: I just posted on BAS asking the rationale of permabanning inactive users. Hopefully I'll get an answer. For anyone who's not banned, here's a link. |
You do not need a teen woohoo hack if you have ACR. If you want pregnancies, miscarriages and all kinds of depressing stuff, then you need InTeen. But I use only ACR and my teens can woohoo if, when and with whom they want.

I got a response; don't think anyone will take offense if I posted it here.

So people register without ever visiting the forums, so they don't read Site Announcements. The solution is pretty easy though and then make sure you make at least one post so it doesn't happen again. |
There are things I prefer to live without. They include InTeen and sending e-mails to sites which banned me for no reason.

Charity, I did read the link.
And even though I may not actually have been banned, receiving messages that I am is still not an enjoyable experience. I will not send him an e-mail. In my humble opinion, when being an admin on a website, common courtesy and at least acting in a kind of professional way is not too much to ask. I know it is a free website and about a game and what what what. That is, as far as I am concerned, no excuse for using your own trivial excuses to rant while pissing off members who may or may not be an asset for the site in the future. I maintain Facebook pages. My dishwasher has been broken for 4 bloody months now and nobody seems able to fix it - and nobody on any FB page knows about it, since my trivial problems are not their concern. Ranting about that is fine when on a forum, but not when you want to solve a problem. How hard would it be to say: Please take note of the Site Announcements, and send an e-mail, so that we can help you? (Would leave him a lot more time to do the dishes by hand anyway ) |
@Charity
Just logged into BAS, only to find a great option for those of you who like to play orphanages and do adoptions within a neighborhood http://www.backalleysims.com/adults...option-Centres). Will definitely be trying this out once my simming hiatus is over. FYI, for those of you who cannot view the page, the cot is just a clone of the Maxis base game crib. Description: Orphan Display Cot (For Adoption Centres) Apartment Life EP or Higher required This is a mish-mash of a pet display case and the basegame cot, intended to enable make a working orphanage community lot where sims can go and adopt a child. It will not function at a liveable lot or if the lot has an owned business, it's for adopting not selling kids. The adoption option is only available to adults that live in a real family that is not already 'Full of Sims'. Each cot will try to get a baby or toddler from the default orphan family and if there is none then it will create a toddler which will be placed into the orphan family. They will bring a nanny NPC onto the lot so there will always be an adult on the lot capable of looking after the orphans, only one cot will do that regardless of how many you have on the lot. It does not however address the fact that babies and toddlers can't travel so when your sim leaves the lot the new addition is left behind. If the adopted orphan is a baby then your sim can hand her/him to the nanny who will walk the child off the lot, otherwise it may look better to put the kid back into the cot before leaving. When your sim arrives home the new addition will be near the letter box (for the neighbourhood dogs to wizz on), that's default game behaviour and there's nothing this can do about that. This comes in four colours, the default colour shown below is so you can easily distinguish it from the default cot in the catalogue. The default pink, blue and lemon colours are also available. Even though I could have used the default basegame mesh I've chosen to give it it's own mesh because the UV mapping on the frame of the default mesh is so completely messed up most simmers would have a default replacement which may cause a problem. This can be found in the miscellaneous / miscellaneous part of the catalogue, only in the community buy/build mode. Note: If you have T&A or A&N do not try to use this at a child care centre, it's not available in the catalogue there anyway. Unlike other non-liveable lots toddlers are never removed from childcare centres when they load so your new family addition would remain in the child care centre next time it loads. And...there is one more mod. Though family friendly, the mod is in the adult section due to the image Chris used. So, I will not link to it. Description: Ask About Family (menu plugin) A simple 'Ask.../About Family' sim menu plugin Surprisingly useful in larger 'hoods, the result will depend on if the sim lives in a real family, has parents etc. The image below show three possible results. Should be OK in every EP configuration, although Bon Voyage is the minimum to glean the full address of the sim's family. |
Ooh, that new Ask... interaction! Shiny! Do want. Thank you, PenelopeT.
|
Well, that was a nice idea, but it's not available:
"Site and registrations are currently closed due to server and website maintenance. We're sorry for any inconveniences" |
@PenelopeT Can you upload the 'ask about family' mod to box or someplace? Many of us can't access the site permanently due to being 'banned'.
|
12-24 hours. Not terribly long to wait. XD
Thanks, I'll take a look and add links to the front page once maintenance is over. |
You can grab both from Box.net (NovemberMods.zip - 210kb)

Thanks Chris.
