this is great, thanks for sharing

Thanks for this Numenor, by the way love that bottom line statement.

thanks numenor! i know this object helped all my friends have top dogs but do you have any idea why the pigeon wont turn up in my game? i downloaded it and put it in the right file but its nowhere in my game, its not in misc/misc. do you think it might be because, in my game thr pigeon wont turn up even when i spawn it using boolprop?

Brokeback Mountain, if the pigeon doesn't appear in your game even using the "Spawn..." option, there's something wrong with your game. Of course the missing object from the catalog is related to the missing "Spawned" pigeon.

I love objects like this Thank you so much.

I have a problem with this object. I only used/have the updated object. But if i put the object into my download folder, and i use this object during the game. It is working perfectly Except one BIG thing..

The text (from hunger, bladder ect) is GONE and some other information is English too! I have the Dutch sims version installed, UNiversity, Nightlife, Business, Glamorous and Pets. So this object is killing my game :S:S

*tryandresisttellingyou*
Erm, isn't it in this case more a problem with activating the fingers?

My brain seems to be out of order - I tried to create a German translation (actually just during a break to avoid doing important stuff), translation is finished (updated Catalog Description, Pie Menu Strings, Text Lists: MakeActionString prim string set and Dialog prim string set), even remembered to save it in my DL- folder, German language is my default but it doesn't work, still English Catalog description and pie menu... anyway, are you interested in a not working but nevertheless completed additional language support? Cannot upload anywhere (copyright :D) and I don't want to write another PM but you can answer if you're interested... maybe brain reboots and I even find the mistake...

Eline_moi - This cheat object (the updated version) is an entirely autonomous object, it can't override or change anything in your game. The routines used by the object are the same used by the original object created using the testing cheats.
Are you really sure that your problem is related to this object? Removing it from the Downloads fixes everything?

Khaibit - Please, post your package here, or send it by email; I can't guess why it shouldn't work, you seem to have done everything perfectly...

Ehmmm... *thinking*

Me couldn't resist neither!
This time you wanted to test me, didn't you? I So I suppose I fail the test, here it is... still not working (guess I'm blind or stupid... maybe both :D) so obviously I didn't do it perfectly An early round of applause?!

Removed :D

LOL! You got my permission, right? What you need, a contract signed with the blood?

OK, I've downloaded it. Now you can remove the attachment, so any proof of your sin will be wiped away!

EDIT: If there is an error, it's in your game, not in this package
I had to start the game in German to test it! But the result is good, at least for German-speaking people

I'm putting it for download from the first post.

PS - Check in your Registry, HK_Local_Machine/Software/EA Games/The Sims 2 Pets/1.0: look at the value for "Language (REG_DWORD)", is it 0x000003?

Depends on... can we take yours? I always faint when I see my own blood... others can even bleed to death and I'm fine... *evil*

Because noone will be able to find hints that I'm a sinner hidden in someone else's posts?


So far my game and me are disturbed... Calms me a lot that maybe a Japanese, Australian or Norwegian probably wouldn't see the German translation neither...
Hopefully you didn't feel the need to put a towel onto a beach couch...


You expected that I'd know a) what you're talking about and b) how to open the registery ...because I made it to confuse you a little you wanted to try fencing back, right? Didn't work!
Serious: Of course I knew what you mean but it's set 0x000003... and no, I do not want to turn the remote desktop on, thanks

This is a good example of synthesis vs analysis... both failed so far... though analysis seems to be the better choice in this case :D

Edit: Just remembered: when looking for the mistake and investigating your package after finishing the translation the referring BHAV stuff was displayed in German - does this help you somehow? Even the QA-SimPe works correctly... :D

hi numenor i really apperciate all your hard work you put into making your objects and mods but i have put in the cheat boolprop control pets on and then chose my pet and i still can't seem to get it to work is there something i'm doing wrong thank you again

Khaibit - SimPE displays things in the language selected in its preferences, that may differ from the game/Windows language.
I have Windows in Italian, and the game in US English; and still SimPE, by default, selects the Italian language (until I change it manually).

Tinagrace - You mean that when you select the pet and then click on the object, you don't see any menu?

hi numenor when ever i put in the cheat boolprop control pets on i always get a error.am i not putting it in right?is there a certain way to put it in/ sorry if this is a silly question.thanks

Yes, so far my SimPE displayed everything which was adjustable in German but when I tried to change the language it didn't work, ignored it's own preferences (even "rebooted" between taking a look if it changed it's mind :D) at all, ignored my changes, just went on using the German display.
I mean the BHAV- how do you call these blocks displaying which Opcode, Operands, Targets etc. you set? I mean them, not the Resource List (need a screenshot to fix the communication bugs? ).
It was the very first time that these blocks showed the BHAV entries themselves in German. When I changed the pie menu of my own package (= English and German too, Italian missing these block thingys still showed English (default, too) texts of the pie menu.

So (try to express myself easier to follow my mind :D) as
1. my game shows a 'strange' language displaying behaviour
2. my SimPE QA t and u show a 'strange' language displaying behaviour
3. my AntiVir didn't found any virus/worm/trojan (except this Milkshape 'fake worm error' which finally could be fixed)

I tried thinking:
1. As I removed most of my DLs I can't test much but good luck one of Solander's meshes was still in the game - showing German language (unfortunately I dunno if it could show English, too), like Maxis stuff, the game itself etc. everything is just fine except your cheat object as I can say
2. as I was unsure if I found a bug I didn't report immediately in the QA forum because well, an error log would have been clear to me and I always keep the *I am stupid* factor in mind... but game and SimPE become *stupid*, too Language setting troubles for both...
3. searched all HDDs as usual so I hope I can remove an infection from the list of possible reasons.

So
a) can you now understand why I told you about my SimPE behaviour?
b) an idea? Maybe even if it's possible that it's just another QA bug - it cannot be caused by your package (working for you). I really don't know - but as the ingame behaviour just happens with this object I thought that -at least - this would be the right corner to report... :D

Ah yes: feel free to tell me how stupid I am :D

Maybe I can help you out: enter the cheat itself as one word, like displayed here

boolprop controlpets on


and it works

Khaibit, I'm not sure what you mean, but I have a hint for you: SimPE is compiled in both English and German (no other languages), and sometimes Quaxi, when releasing the QA versions, forgets to enable the English modules. So, you see some parts of SimPE in German.
It's not related to the language you set in the preferences.

From the preferences, you can set the language for displaying the package content, like the catalog description ets. But if you find a SimPE menu in German and another one in English, Quaxi's hurry is to blame

Edit:
Whatever these problems causes, it happens only to this package I did a test renaming with one of my favourits (actually not necessary but I wanted to check if this strange behaviour (error) appears again... NO! : As I said, not necessary so decide if you want it or not...

Hmm, is it a bug I should report to Quaxi or is there a bug in your package?

Noticed in the screenshot that I included English typing of 'glass' into my translation *blush*

hi Khabit thank you for helping me that was the problem i wasn't putting the cheat in right

numenor,
honestly...
i expect nothing but the best from you

thanks!

Thank you, kind sir. *rolls eyes*

I was hoping someone would post this. I expect nothing less from you.

But the same results granted by this object can be obtained just using the testing cheats.


Thanks anyway ;-)

Corvi! I didn't expect that you would win the prize!



So, my dear Corvi, you are warned!

PS: any news regarding the BaseGameStarter? Have I missed a PM of yours?

I knew i should have read to the end of the post but something kept me from doing so, the prize maybe ?




(I have just tested basegamestarter and it works perfectly! ( sorry i didn't have time to test earlier that doesn't mean i don't appreciate the fact that you made it corvi compatible ) I'm actually pretty excited! No more bat files editing yay! And i didn't mess it up this time lolAnd i see some new cool changes also.

Thank you ( it's a simple word but i mean it)

Corvi
