Compatibility and Conflicts
This mod should not conflict with any other mods, as it is a pure script mod.

Known Issues
→ Some people claim that the December 2024 update (and onwards) causes infinite loading screens. While this doesn't occur for me, it is best to do the following before reporting to me:
↳ Try with this mod installed only, without the addon, this includes any file in the Packages folder.
↳ Try with this mod and its addon installed only. See what happens if you can activate or deactivate UL.
↳ If you see a file whose name starts with ScriptError and if the file contains the words "error" (not "ErrorTrap") or "exception", share with me in the Comments section.
↳ If it won't bother you, try with some mods removed to see if the problem is due to some kind of script conflict.

Translations
The mod supports the following languages:
• English
• German
• Russian
• Italian
• French
• Spanish (Spain)
• Portuguese (Brazil)
• Czech
• Chinese (Traditional)
↳ I would appreciate it if you provide me with the original translations from The Sims preferably, or your own translation.
