Not buying TS4 until Terrain Sculpting is back and cheatless Split Levels are added!

WOW! Thank you so much! I actually requested this on the sims bbs!
Perfect, brilliant, thanks!!

One question though, how do you recolour things for nightlife, as SimPE doesn't work with it yet?

This will come in very handy. I haven't made many driveways yet, but already I am fed-up of the unbelievably limited choices (ditto the garages). Those concrete ones are hideous, but I've had to use them for my white houses. I did try putting tiles on top, but it didn't work. Never thought of invisible driveways! Makes you wonder why Maxis didn't just provide those in the first place and leave it to the players to choose their own surfaces.

Incidentally, what exactly is the "locktiles" cheat for and how does it relate to this object? Is it something we need to type in before we place the tiles or what?

WHY DO SIMS NEVER EXPERIENCE A MID-LIFE CRISIS?

Thanks for this, definitely, but I'm also curious about this "locktile" cheat. I've not heard of it.

Thanks so much for this. did some research on the locktile cheat. Turning this to off will make it so you can place tiles outside of your lot....as in - cover the sidewalk and grass trim. I believe you could even place them on the road.

I've gone out in search of myself.
If I should return before I get back,
please keep me here.

that is exactly what it is Orlando, thanks for describing it

I will put up the explanation on the first post so that everyone can read... I was in a hurry to upload this yesterday and that is why there's not much info there...

Do you belive frogs can bite? If not, then you should, because they do! LOL!

Wow! The modders here are fantastic. Used the invisible driveway last night and it worked perfectly. Thank you Rodrigo for the mod. And thanks Inge for the info on SimPE. Going over to the site now to upgrade my version.

Thanks SO much! Just what I've been looking for. A stealth driveway! Makes altering my Pre-EP2 houses a little less painful!

No, "move_objects on" is a much more dangerous cheat, and it has not the same purposes as the cheat i mentioned... boolprop locktiles is a cheat that allows you to place floor tiles on the street, just that... it doesnt risk you to mess up your family allowing you to delete important objects...

This is a great mod, roddyaleixo! You should advertise it as one of the must-have custom objects for Nightlife.

I have one suggestion... Is it be possible to make the invisible driveway work with the moveobjects code active? This would allow builders to place driveways with more creativity. For instance, I would like to have my driveway go through a 3-tile wide door arch (like the one that comes with the Uni XP) but the current implementation doesn't allow for this. Once again, thanks for a great mod.
