Age & Pet option for Teleporters

Have you ever spent forever and a half flipping through teleport categories to find that one specific townie teen you want for some reason? Rachums at @kashmiresims has, @chocolatecitysim has, and so have I! Sometimes when you are a story-driven player, you just need to port in some kids or teens and the teleporters with their family-oriented menus are not helpful. It's high time these beloved modding objects get an update to better fit the needs of those of us that use them! :)

Three teleporter options have been modified to provide age-filtered selections. Inge's Teleporter Cat, Paladin's Visual Teleporter, and Twojeffs Simblender. UPDATE July 2024: I have now added pet options as well, and a YA category, as further use suggested those too would be useful to have :) Menus have also been tidied up to be less cluttered and hopefully easier to use. Only the cat and the blender have been altered. UPDATE Feb 2025: Elder category now added to simblender and teleporter cat.

Inge's Cat options

Visual teleporter options

Simblender options

The menus past the point below is identical to the Teleporter Cat :) Please note it uses a modified version of Simblender as the base, for more information about that and more information on how it has been edited, please see the txt file in the zip.

I did my best to break it down in the possible categories that I think one might need. The all-category helps if you aren't sure what the Sim you are after is, and the specific ones are more narrowed down for the times where you do know it's a townie or an NPC or something :)

Download Simlogical's Cat Teleporter

Download Simwardrobe's Visual Teleporter

Download Simblender (uses picknmix version as base, please see the original upload for more information on those functions)

Have fun playing kids pool parties, staging school photos, and finding your Sims new friends in their age group to socialize with on a Sunday! WARNING: Some of these options will show game characters that I do not recommend touching. If I were to force myself to go and code fail-safes and test all of those, this would never get posted. So I'm leaving it to you to be responsible with who you teleport in and what you do with them. If you are unsure, check the WIKI list of NPCs that are safe to touch. I do not believe simply teleporting in a character is going to cause harm, so if you hit something by mistake just delete them off lot (moveobjects on, pick up, delete).

250 followers Custom Memory Bonanza

It's finally time! To thank all you lovely people for your support, I have been working hard to get this ready for upload and here we are. Today I am sharing my custom memory object, and my library of a whopping 201 custom memories. Based on the wonderful Tattered Diary by DiLight over on MTS, and the tutorial she shared of how to make your own custom memories.

I've always cared a lot about memories, to me they tell the story of the Sims life. Some of you from MTS may recall when I did the whole several year rebuild of my hood, replicating every last detail of the original. I'm memory crazy, okay? And when DiLight gave me the power to make my own, I may have gone a tad overboard. Or just the right amount, you get to decide :P DiLight taught me most of what I know about making custom memories, and the base BHAVs are from her, but as I've learned more I've added some bells and whistles that I hope you will enjoy. It's a new clone and separate GUID from the original tutorial object set up by DiLight, so if you have your own you can have mine too without issues :) Found in misc/misc, costs 1 simoleon.

Download on simfileshare

Features - Brand new form, created by me. Resized BV photo album with new mapping and new texture (seen above, in game pictures at the end of this post). I wanted something that was uniquely mine, and that you don't necessarily have to hide away in the attic or under the foundation. If you don't like it, you also have some additional model forms you can switch between through the pie menu. - Adaptable dynamic menu. Thanks to a really neat trick from @picknmixsims the menu reflects the memories you put in your downloads. If no file with the correct guid is found, the option for it won't show. Which means that although I am crazy enough to have 201, you can go ahead and only pick your favorite ones and the object will automatically detect and adapt the menu to that selection. - Memories all have a custom icon, that's made from game icons from TS2 or TS3. Some I am quite proud of, some are admittedly not great. Not everything is easy to convey through game icons, but I've tried my best, I hope the effort shows. 5 memories have icons that are not from the game, but I tried to match them to the aesthetic as best I could. - Memory subject menu shows only relevant age groups. For example, if the memory is about having a baby, only baby/toddler Sims will show as options. Goal being to keep menu as concise as possible. If you wish to assign memories retroactively, please see jonasn's excellent Memory Commander object, which has support to add my custom memories without age limitations. As well as a whole lot of other useful memory-related stuff. - Extensive documentation detailing everything you may need to know about the memories (text, icon, background, who can get it, who they can get it about, repeatability, where to find it on the object) to help you select the ones you want for your game, and familiarize yourself with them. - English and Swedish translations of memories, and object menu. If someone wants to add their language, that would be great but it's a lot of work so I don't expect it. You are welcome to share your translated versions directly if you wish, or you can send them to me for me to update files shared here :) If you want to learn how to translate the files directly, Episims has a great tutorial found here.

Examples of types of custom memories included - Extended family members memories (got cousin, got aunt/uncle, got sibling, got twin sibling, got great grandchild, got stepparent, got stepchild) - Birth related memories (pregnancy, becoming parent, late in life parent, had multiples birth, premature baby) - Marriage related memories (divorce, parental divorce, custody things, alimony) - Relationship related memories (fighting, breakups, additional love memories) - Woohoo related (memories for specific woohoo locations, repeatable generic woohoo/public woohoo) - University degree related (declared major memories, got a minor degree memories, got a major degree memories, for remembering having studied multiple things and being able to see what major your Sim chose without looking at their diploma) - Loan related, for remembering taking and paying off loans of different types - Moving memories (first apartment, child moves out, various memories for sims moving in with others) - Kids related (child's first day in school, got their own pet, nursery rhyme, giving up for adoption, living at orphanage)

Mods automating delivery of my CC memories (more to come) Learned nursery rhyme from - Found here, by me Wrote restaurant guide - Found here, part of jonasn "Novel Writing Improvements" mod

Updated Inge Table Counter Controller

I am a big fan of Inge from simlogical's table and counter controller, it is a wonderful tool that helps us guide our Sims to make smarter choices about where to eat or place food. I love that I can have a breakfast nook that is actually used for breakfast, and a dining room that is used the rest of the day. But this specific home above proved beyond the tools ability, as it treats island counters the same as ordinary counters, and my Sim kept blocking his own breakfast spot by using that counter to place the group meal. Off to fix it I went!

I have added four additional functions to the controller:

Island counter surface use setting is now separated from ordinary counters, for scenarios like the one above where you want to stop your Sims from blocking an eating spot by using it for storage

Enable all/disable all option added, for those cases where you want to quickly turn off all options, for example on outdoor tables during winter.

Added alternative object model shapes, for greater variation and to better suit outdoor use.

UPDATE: Whoward from @picknmixsims has modified this object to make the cut offs for meal times more user-edit friendly. It is now defined by a BCON on the controller object, and can easily be edited by you to determine what the cut off should be for the parts of the day.

I have added a "Times" menu with the hours for each category listed, to help you remember what the cut offs are, for those of you like me that aren't good with remembering numbers. UPDATE: Now made dynamic by Whoward, so that it'll pick up and display whatever you set the hours to be.

I have only edited two out of the three necessary files, but all three are included in the download for the sake of convenience. If you had the controller previously please make sure to delete your old versions of "ijTableCounterController" and "ijCounterControllerPatch". Previously placed controllers will retain their settings, as long as you do not load the game with no controller in downloads. If this object is completely new to you, I recommend you check out Inge's original upload to learn more about how it works :)

Download from simfileshare (Has Inge's original meal time cut offs, as shown in the picture above. Note, there is a typo in afternoon, it should be 11-16) Download Ver 2 from simfileshare (Makes use of Picknmix edit to alter meal times to better reflect what is common where I live. Set to Breakfast 5-10, Lunch 10-16, Dinner 16-22, Night 22-05. I encourage you to edit and set what you want, but I know some people are not comfortable so I decided to add a version with hopefully more realistic cut-offs)

Original object was BG compatible I believe, but various models I chose are from later EPs/SPs so I recommend having all games to use this.

Credits: Inge, whoward at picknmix for the updated version and kindness in letting that version be shared here to make it easier for downloaders, and all his help that have enabled me to learn enough to understand Inge's original code and figure out how to adapt it. Thanks to all the great CC makers of things visible in pictures. If you wonder where something is from I am happy to see if I can find it.

Cyjon Loan Jar Modifications

This is an old creation of mine that I never got around to sharing, that I thought might make a nice release to celebrate 100 followers on tumblr. I never really expected so many of you to find and enjoy what I shared, but it's been wonderful once again getting that feeling of possibly helping someone enjoy their game more :)

I enjoy making my Sims lives more difficult financially, to have a real reason to work and run businesses and such, and being able to take loans is an important part of that. While Monique's computer is great in many ways, I never liked how interest is handled which is why I mainly use Cyjon's Loan Jar for loans. But even set to the lowest interest of 1%, the daily increase quickly gets out of hand on a big loan. I wanted more flexibility, and that's how this creation came to be.

Download from simfileshare

What's new?

The option to control which days of the week interest is added, with individual days or all at once setting options

An optional pop up dialog that informs you when interest has been added, and how much interest will be next time. When enabled (which is the default) the pop up will occur daily at 7am, regardless of whether there is a loan or not. When a loan jar is on lot with no active loan, use the setting option to turn the alert off :)

Easy overview of current settings regarding days, alert and interest rate

Support for pop up dialogs where you can enter rules you use in your hood, so you have easy access to them from inside the game (see picture included in download for example)

Jar and note subsets created by gayars, along with a new glass jar mesh and recolors by gayars

Paper note made recolorable by gayars, with recolors by gummi with game icons to make it possible to differentiate different type loans from each other (see picture above for examples). Set different interest rules for different types of loans, and use the icons to help you tell which is which :)

Alternative object models if you'd prefer something that blends in, with a pop up list to show you the options and what order they are in.

If you are unfamiliar with Cyjon's original, you can find more information about it's original functions on Cyjon's website. For more work by the very talented gayars, check out her website or her tumblr. Thank you my friend, for agreeing to make a new mesh to separate my version from the original, and for making the note recolorable. Being able to tell which jar is which loan is one of my favorite features :)

Requires Uni or a later EP according to Cyjon. Separate guid, so it will not overwrite the original, you can have both. Found in misc/misc, costs 1 simoleon. Has been tested in my game for years without issues. I hope you enjoy :)

Price-editing friendly version of Monique's computer

I don't know about any of you, but I love changing the costs of things in my game to make money have more of an impact on the game. I enjoy my Sims having a reason to work and run businesses, so I have a lot of mods and edits that alter the prices of things. Earlier this summer I realized Monique's computer was not impacted by a lot of global changes, and I set out to change the costs for my own use. I thought perhaps more people would enjoy being able to easily change costs, and in the process of doing all the different options I had more ideas and learned new skills that made it possible to add a few other details. And that is what I have on offer for you today :)

Features

Most shop and delivery options rewritten to pull pricing from BCON 1002

Set to original pricing currently, intended to be easy to edit, not to push my preferences on you

Broken jewelry shop has been fixed, it was not set up right which is why it only charged 1 simoleon for jewelry. Set to 49 now like the jewelry stand, but can be changed through BCON 1002

Menu made more dynamic, displaying price tags based on BCON 1002 settings, and in some cases picking up on and displaying default replacements and correct language string for non-english installations (applies to electronic gadgets, produce, fish, robots, vacation maps)

Tutorial included to help you understand how to edit BCON if you are unfamiliar

Download from simfileshare (alternative version with crystal ball dating added can be found here)

Includes the three computers Chaavik posted in his AL update of Monique's original computer. Mostly of use to those who want to change prices, but if the jewelry shop or english object names has been bothering you then there is that as well :) You still need the other files named "MQ_Computer...", which you can get here if you do not have them. For more in depth information, please see the document file included in the zip.
