Quick Info
~~~~~~~~~~
* You must also download the following addons for this hack to work correctly:
df_game_edition_addon.package
http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=303431
df_budget_transact_addon.package
http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=303432
Driving ownable vehicles will now cost you Simoleons for each trip. The amount charged will vary based on which cost MOD you are using. The charge is usually a percentage related to the vehicle's current depreciated value and/or its initial purchase price. A charge can also be set for Walking to and from Community Lots, which is a new feature of the Bon Voyage expansion.
* You must download a "cost MOD" or else the hack will have no effect and just cause an error preventing you from driving any vehicle!
* Check out the readme.txt file for more information.
