Hello,
As I don't have an error trap installed after some research I got the Nraas_ErrorTrap_Tuning_DisableDeReferencing.
So 1st test on the same part as the last time, now my sims can finish his project even if he fails each time despite his level 6.
2nd test on a new part and now the Mechanical Stitching Machine works perfectly !!!
It's too great the error trap solved the problem ^^

Thank you very much Lyralei for your help and for the mod.
Thanks, thanks, thanks!!!
heya! 

Good to hear it works again! :D Error trap is really helpful just in general with EA's code and CC creator's code. Sometimes the game does a derp and the whole game becomes confused (or object in this case :p). no matter how solid you program the script mods, there's always something that eventually starts to break. error trap really helps that. + resets the object/sim if necessary

hopefully, you're having a great weekend!

Great job, Lyralei! I do have one small suggestion. I think a looping sound effect should play while Sims are using the sewing machine. Something like THIS.

I also went ahead and translated the strings to Spanish. MTS isn't allowing me to upload the file. You can download it here: http://www.simfileshare.net/download/2373313/

I just d/led it, but am having trouble w/it appearing in game. It shows up in the buy catalog, but when I try to place it, it's invisible. I'll try removing other mods to see if that works. It could be a mod conflict.

Hiya @Naus Allien

Sorry for the super delayed reply! Thansk for getting me the Spanish version of the mod! I'll add it as soon as I can  

I also wanted to look at the sound stuff, now that Battery released his awesome S3SE mod,it's a bit easier to see if it's game compatible and if it will crash. So I really want to look into that as well as soon as I can (Plus, of course the big promised update, to make clothing). and some overhaul on multiple Sewing machines somehow being seen as 'one' sewing machine. 

So the coming update will be pretty big  Thanks again for the files!

Hiya!

This is a reported bug, which I've been trying to fix for a long time but wasn't able to yet... so, if you change the 'texture details settings too high it will be fixed!

The table dissapeared!
I've looked into this bug myself, but I can't seem to figure out why the table disappears on the Low texture details settings. On Medium and High it does appear I'd suggest that playing the game on medium settings then should be fine. If anyone could point me into the right direction on fixing this one, I'd love to know!

Default Error Message on World Load
Hi! When I installed this mod the following message popped up for me. I was still able to stock the table with fabric and have a sim practice sewing but I wanted to know if this error message means something is wrong?

This looks great, but one minor nitpick: You misspelled "practice."

If you can't take the heat, choose the water type starter.

Heya!

I'm currently making this code a bit better since this sometimes shows an error when I accidentally called a function twice (to basically tell the code "give me a list of all the patterns!"). So the sewing table will have patterns and stuff to get  

In the new update, this should no longer show up! but for now, the sewing table will still work

it's not necessarily a misspell, but one of those 'british / american' things

Quote:
"In British English, which is also called International English, practise is a verb and practice is a noun. American English tends to avoid practise altogether, using practice as both the noun and verb form."

This is absolutely amazing! I am a little gutted that I play in a 1490's save, but I think I'll ignore the 300 years or so needed to allow this item into my world. My serfs are going to love it! Hmmmm. Wondering if Transmogrifier will let me change it to a loom. . . ? I will also need to tune the prices for fabric - way overpriced for my gameplay.
Would love a non machine version of this - manual hand stitching I would be dead
Thank You so much for this!

I had been thinking about manual hand stitching, actually! Since I do sewing myself, stitching is just the thing you do with big projects (And I know for even the Victorians, it's been believed that they had a pretty divided technique of using machine sewing and hand sewing)... I wonder if I would be able to quickly add this while also working on my clothing feature (which is almost done!)

Heya everyone!

Not sure who reads the comments regularity, but I felt like sharing it is at least good :p

There is a new update coming soon! What I'll be adding is the following:
- Sims can now create clothing! The clothing will be unlocked in-game of course, so it works a bit like clothing you unlock with a career.
- A new dialogue I made will show all clothing
- The sewing table will now appear when on low-texture settings! And no longer be invisible
- Adding a tutorial tab in the tutorials section in the game (the one where you see about gameplay and how to do stuff basically :p)
- Limiting the possibility for the game to create 'failure object' patterns. Which is still a hard one to tackle!
- Limited the possibility for patterns to be patterns but when created, being non-existence
- Fixing that popup on the load screen, although I'm sure it will sneak up, because that thing is just cursed lol
- The chair will now have only one slot to slot to. The previous version would have two to put the chair on and one of them would make it so the sewing table would say there was no chair So that's fixed!
- Some behind the scenes code bug fixes (like that the sewing table would share the same progress if you had two, rather than keeping it to one sewing table)

What I might add:
- Hand stitching, but that's indeed either this update or another one :p
- Adding sewing machine sound
- Sim taking measurements and gifting the clothing piece to another sim to wear

Heya @Amazon77 !

Unfortunately I didn't get to that feature yet with the new update, but I'll definitely focus on it once I can! I'm also currently working on a little 'sewing room' set, which would also mean having to make the sewing table portable in a sense of, that you can put it on any desk. (which, currently it isn't) and so that feature will be more suited then to release as well

@Naus Allien I totally forgot to add your spanish translation to the new version! but then i remembered, that the new version also comes with some additional stuff, so I was wondering if you'd be okay with translating that too? If you don't have any time or anything then i can always add the STBL file you gave to me! (Thanks again btw! I really appreciate it!!)

P.S. Please add the Sell Clothing function you mentioned you might add. I and other TS3 players would love and appreciate it if you do.

Somehow I missed this when it first came out! But your new clothes (skirt and blouse) led me here. It's so perfect for my post-apocalyptic and dystopian worlds! Thank you so much.
