Hey! I'm really interested in using your aging mod. I was just wondering, if I throw a birthday party and the sim blows out the candles before midnight, will he age an additional day when the clock hits 12am?

Hey! Yeah unfortunately they will, that's why I use the Sim Blender edit by @picknmixsims with the added option to age sims up & down by 1 day as well as 3 and 5 days. So when I throw a birthday party then they age a day again at midnight, I age them down one day with the Sim Blender. Alternatively, you can easily edit the hour they age up (and the age spans for that matter) by opening my mod in SimPe...

Click on the Tuning BCON in the Resource List

Click the Plugin View Tab

Click the Process Hour Line

Change the number in the box next to 'Dec' to the hour you want. 0 is midnight, 18 is 6pm like by default, or any other time on the 24 hour clock. (Everything you need to customise your own age spans is in this file clearly labelled, though you enter 1 less than the amount of days you want it to be e.g. put 4 for it to be 5 days)

Click Commit File

Then, to change the time the text popup says, click on the Dialog prim string set STR# in the Resource List

Click on the first line

Edit the time written in the text box to whatever time you've set it to in step 4

Click Commit File

Save!

Hope that helps :)

Recoloring Fences?

I have done this before, but it was many years ago and the tutorial I was using from Cyclonesue is no longer downloadable. (Thanks TSR for that) I did some digging at MTS2 but the tutorial there wasn’t clear at all. If I recall correctly, you need to clone the fence first, change the guid, and then recolor, right? And because the guid database has been down for a long time, how are people finding a work-around? If someone could point me in the right direction of a clear tutorial, I’d be very happy about it. I want to recolor Llama’s Nine Archer’s Balstrade sets. Badly. I’ve already got all the textures ready, I just need to slap them on the actual object.
