Okay all, I've posted another update. Hopefully this is the last, but I haven't got the EP to test it yet so I can't 100% guarantee that!

In any case, this update should hopefully stop the object from mysteriously disappearing after a while in live mode.

Massive enormous thanks to Braveheart, who has consistently tried the newest beta-updates and reported back to me in record time! Thanks Braveheart!

As always, reports of oddities and bugs result in the amusing image of my beating my head on the desk, as well as the added bonus of my fixing them. So if such oddities continure to exist, please report them here!

Echo

UPDATE: I checked the object briefly in TSU, it seems to work fine! :D

Hm, I'm a bit behind, but wanted to let you know I put this in my game and love it - no crashes and no disappearing. And it just looks wonderful in my courtyard... the parents sit on the verandah and watch the kids play. Tons of fun

I love the wadding pools! Only thing is when I placed it on a porch out the back door the todder goes out by himself. LOL

I don't know about that. How is a small todder able to get out the door? and into the pool clothes and all rofl

Lol! Well the toddlers are able to open doors all round the house... If you put a toy outside and the toddler wants it, he/she will quite happily open the door to get to it. Just a little Sim-oddity.

Simsmomma - should be under Plumbing > Miscellaneous. And re the skill points, it is possible. I don't think I'll be adding it to this one at this point, but I'll keep it in mind for some future items.

Have you got the download called "echo-wadingpool.package"? There are two sets of downloads on the front page, one is the object, the other is a set of recolours.

Well I've never used the file maid myself, but I presume that just unzips into your downloads? Have you run the clean installer? I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't be showing up for you... :/

Default Postive thinking
You turned the negative of kids splashing in toilet water into a positive, fun thing. Good for you! I like your style. Are you married?
