Update 12/14/20: Attempt to fix object error when cleaning up spoiled leftovers.

Update 12/11/20: Attempt to fix in-world dishes occasionally spawning on stacked dishes when cleaning up spoiled leftovers. 

Update 11/03/20: Made the clean up spoiled leftovers interaction display the actual stacked spoiled dishes you had in your fridge. Also updated the interaction string a lil bit.

A bit of an experimental mod that brings the leftovers system from TS2 more in line with those found in TS3 and TS4.
(I didn’t forget the download link this time, heh.)

Download: SFS / MTS

Features:
-Food spoils while it’s in the fridge, although at a slower rate. Takes 72 hours (or 3 days) by default. And no, you can’t reset the timer by taking it out of the fridge.
-You can’t keep an unlimited amount of leftovers anymore, capped at 5 by default.
-While spoiled leftovers don’t show up in the “Get Leftovers” menu, they still take up space, so you need to get rid of them.
-Should work with all fridges, including CC ones.

Conflicts:

Due to limitations with BHAV programming, it will also conflict with mods that add or remove leftovers on their own.

Tuning:
-You can change how many hours food takes to spoil in the fridge by modifying the BCON entry in “ld_leftovers_tracker.package” with SimPE.
-Change the maximum amount of stored leftovers and of stacked spoiled dishes when cleaning up in “ld_leftovers.package”.

Troubleshooting:
-If you get an error please send the log my way and steps on how to reproduce it, I had to do a lot of workarounds to get this to work and while I tested it thoroughly myself, it might go wrong.
-Reloading the lot should get rid of problematic leftovers.
-Removing the mod is safe.

Any leftovers you already had in your fridge in your save will get wiped upon loading with this mod for the first time. I may update this mod further as I sometimes do.

Heya!

Overview

This is a small mod for TS2 that fixes the intense lag you get when you’re in step 4 of CAS (makeup/accessories/jewelry/etc)

A small little mod that lets children get cereal from Maxis fridges, instead of having to resort to snacks all the time.

Might require Apartment Life.

Thanks to It’sMike64#6730 from the PleasantSims Discord for the original idea!

THIS MOD IS NOW OBSOLETE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW VERSION HERE

This is a really quick shader modification that turns the blobby outdoor shadows into soft ones, like in the family portrait and indoors. Cool for general gameplay and pretty screenshots if you can’t stand the default shadows like me.

It was made on Mansion & Garden but i believe it could work on other versions this time around.

Download: SFS

Place it into your Downloads folder; It’s a normal mod this time :)

There’s an issue, that is sadly not fixable though:
Sim and object shadows overlap with each other now.

I’m using Gunmod’s Radiance Light System on all of these screenshots, highly recommend it.

one of my goals is to sort of unofficially patch ts2 with fixes and improvements which is why i made the previous poll, the fact that EA gave us 2 versions of the game and neither is a true definitive one sucks lol.

i mostly focus on legacy nowadays bc it’s the most accessible version of the game, but i will consider porting stuff to UC / Original as i go as well.

just gonna go on about how i fixed the ofb uniform bug a little bit bc i’m feeling like yapping:

i found out that going to plan your swimwear outfit on a dresser after setting your uniform, then cancelling without making any changes fixed the uniform (for some reason only swimwear worked consistently)

so i assumed there must be some englne-level code that runs when the plan outfit dialog pops up that “validates” all outfits to make sure hair, accessories, the sim’s face, etc. are all synced across outfits.

i thought i’d try to find and transplant this code to run when the uniform dialog is closed instead, which would solve the problem, however the disassembly looked too nightmarish, and i don’t have the game reverse engineered enough to figure that bit out, so i did something easier:

i edited the uniform bhavs to launch the plan outfit dialog right after the uniform one. obviously this looked stupid and brute forced as you’d have to cancel out of plan outfit everytime afterwards, but it “solved” the problem, and it’d be perfect if i could manage to automatically close the dialog as soon as the code that fixes the outfit runs.

so that’s what i did next. found the bit of code that runs when the plan outfit window is opened, found the bit of code that runs when you press the cancel button on it, and ran that right after the window is opened. worked good, but you could still see the window pop-up for a split second, which wasn’t ideal, so the next step was to figure out where in memory the window visibility was stored and mark it as invisible on creation. that did it! seamless.

after all this was figured out, i created a variable/flag that gets set to true when the uniform dialog pops up, and this code to hide and auto-close the plan outfit dialog only runs if that flag is set to true, then sets it back to false. this means that only the plan outfit dialog that pops up after the uniform dialog is hidden and cancelled, so you can still use the plan outfit interaction freely!

this also does mean that if you install the fix .package without the TS2Extender .asi you’ll get a plan outfit window everytime you set uniform. i guess that could also be some sort of fix/workaround if you can’t install the .asi for whatever reason.
