Hi
I haven't had time to test thoroughly but I have had a few problems.
Delivery of food is fine. Study seems to work but I didn't get an option to choose what to study.
My major concern came when I tried to shop online. My Sim would reset. In other words, he leapt out of the chair and reappeared standing by the desk.
I have other mods but NONE that affect the computers.
If I ever find out what is wrong I shall let you know as this is a nice idea and I would prefer this to other methods of shopping at home.

I'm a little bit confused...

The hack works great with one exception:
In one of the screenshots above you can see a recolored alienware computer be used...well, in my game, the extra pie menu options don't appear on any custom-content-computer including the alienware one.

Did I do something wrong?

(talking about v3 - haven't tried v4 yet)

Hi, Vren, sorry if i forgot to remove the screenshot for alienware, i will remove that now. In my previous version (v1 and v2) I gave support to alienware but in v3 and v4 I removed it. About the custom computer, this hack applies only to all default cheap and expensive computer, those without an asterisk except for the recolored one.
Thanks for reminding me about the screenshot.

i installed the non global version, and everything is fine except when I make a deposit or check the bank account the pop up is blank, also the shop online-buy clothes option does not work. the sim disappears from the chair and reappears a few feet away. maybe you could fix that.

Hmm.. I'm going to wait until some more bugs are worked out before I try this one, but I will make a note to keep an eye on this thread.
What exactly does the banking online thing do? Does it let you pay bills? I'm confused.
Thank you so much for making this though!

(edit) Ok. I've changed my mind. I'll load it and give it a try. :-)

Hi, Kool24, like you I really like to have a bank in our sim that's why I tried to restore Shogal's bank plugin, I successfully made it EP compatible but sad to say it's buggy when you exit the game. So the best solution is to remove that feature. Thank you for giving your time to test it and I really appreciate it. I'll repost it as soon I find the solution or mabe create a new one.

Spiritseer,
I'm sorry if I made you confused, please dont panic, we're talking here the Bank Online feature, the rest features are all fine such as Shop Online, Xpress delivery, study skills and career. In my last uploaded file I disabled Bank Online feature to avoid using it. But I'm still looking for the solution I really want this Bank.

I absolutely love this, it's wonderful! There's just one little thing - shopping online doesn't fulfill wants to "buy new clothes" or "buy cell phone", etc. Is there anything you could do about that?

This works great. Too bad there's not a "Loan" or "Borrow" feature in the Online banking part. It would be nice for the newly made Sims to be able to borrow and pay back a loan for a nice house. Pescado has a money order hack but you have to be "friends" or "family" to send it, so the new Sims in the neighborhood will never have that option of recieving money without using "Motherlode".

All that aside this is very realistic and handy. Especially the "Online Shopping" :D
