Extremely useful mod! I always hated when my sims just stand still, because they keep trying watering those flowers (they even run into the house, in order to water the half-tile flowers!).

nantp179 - ALL the Global Mods might be exported with the lots; you should always:
- check your exported lots with the Clean Installer; or
- remove all the global mods from the Downloads while creating and exporting your lots; or
- use the AnyGameStarter in order to create a "clean" game where to build your lots.

Dickhurt - Just to prove that I *do* read the ReadMe's, I noticed a funny typo:
Modifications: Semi-Global (affects all refrigerators)

I've finally started my Journal. Information only, no questions.

I *DON'T* accept requests, sorry.

Is this updated for Mansion and Garden Stuff? If not then will you in the feature? && why does HCDU detect that these conflict with each other; should I be concerned?

22 I will give him the key to the house of David. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them.

I examined the hacks, and they are compatible with any expansion from Seasons up to Mansions & Garden included.

As for the HCDU reporting a conflict, YES, you should be concerned.
You can't have BOTH hacks in the game, you have to choose one.
In particular, as stated in the README.txt included in both hacks:

'inaccessible' fix replaces the 'half-tile' one, since it does all the same
stuff and even more.

I understand that this important piece of information has not been cleared up enough in the main post, where dickhurt however points out that:
The second one, named df_water_inaccessible_flowers_fix.rar, does the same but also...

For the gamers asking about a mod to allow trimming "unreachable" bushes and hedges, I was planning to do one eventually. But Cyjon beat me to it and you can find his hack here http://drupal.cyjon.net

I'm so glad I wandered by. Was always so irritated that Maxis made so many lots with inaccesable plants. Thanks.

Stand up, speak out. Just not to me..

Thank you SO MUCH, this was aggravating me like crazy, and I would have to use boolprop to constantly replace dead half-tile flowers. <33

This opens up a lot of new asthetic-based ideas for placing flowerbeds. Landscaping possibilities are a lot less limited, simply due to access issues.
Now, f I were only a bit less debilitated when it comes to artistic matters...
