Amberandcarlos33 - No, the SEP works in a completely different way than the "Slot Packages" you mention.
In this case, I've literally "enabled" some slots already existing on the maxis corner counters, that were previously unusable.

My project was to expand the SEP to tables (especially coffee tables), by way of adding new slots to the tables themselves; thus using a different technique then the one used for the counters, but also very different from the "Slot Packages" (which are autonomous objects).
But so far I couldn't find the time to proceed with the SEP project... -

I know this might be premature, but will this version be safe to use with Seasons?

I'd hate to have to live with non-diagonal appliances for a bit, but it might be the only way for a while...

now seasons is out, so is SEP compatible or not?

Yes, the SEP works perfectly with Seasons. Of course, the SEP is a collection of fixes for each and every Maxis counter, therefore, the new counters from Seasons don't have the ability to place diagonal objects (yet).
Ehm... Neither the counter for GLS works, because I never added it to the SEP - All the previous counters (up to OFB) work fine.

Well, if you have the chance, I know we'd all really appreciate an update. There are some really nice looking counters in Seasons that my wife has been using for her houses and she misses the extra ability this adds.

Me, I'm trapped in a rut as far as how my kitchens look.

I'm not conceited, conceit is a fault and I have no faults.

Tameno8, did you read the posts above yours? He has already explained that the SEP DOES NOT YET work for the new SEASONS counters. We all hope that he will be able to find the time in his busy schedule to update for SEASONS, but has not yet been able to.

We all have to exercise a bit of patience. Modders will update what they can, when they can, and not any sooner.

Default Thread Update!
SEP V. 1.1 released


16 MAR 2007: UPDATE - Added counters from Pets and Seasons:
  • "Atomic Age" kitchen counter (PETS)
  • "Atomic Age" counter island (PETS)
  • "Atomic Age" commercial counter (PETS)
  • "Country" kitchen counter (SSN)
  • "Country" counter island (SSN)
  • "Tiki" kitchen counter (SSN)
  • "Tiki" counter island (SSN)
Also, included some special versions of the base-game corner islands, apparently identical to the original ones, but used when OFB is installed but not NL. This way, we are 100% sure that any counter from any game up to SSN can host diagonal objects.

(Please note that the neither FFS nor GLS contained any new counters)

Is this compatible with H&M Stuff pack? There is a new counter included in the game, but I haven't gotten to check it yet myself. I wanted to ask first though, in case you already knew whether or not it's compatible.

The reason I ask is because there is a new counter, and as I type this I can't remember if the commercial counters are already corner-enabled [But probably not... I haven't played without the SEP for so long!].

I will reply back after I check it myself.

As expected, the SEP does not work with the 'Zecutine's "Show Me More" Counter' from the H&M Fashion Stuff pack.

You're right: any new counter that comes with a new EP needs to be manually added to the SEP. I'll do that ASAP (thanks for reminding me! )

Keeping this in my game even if I have H&M stuf pack won't affect anything, right? It just means I won't be able to put things diagonally on the H&M counter(s)?

P.S. Thank you for everything you do, you're incredible!

P.P.S. I'm guessing this doesn't work on custom counters, right?
