Mod The Sims - Missing/Empty Book Title Fix

Files Changes
GameplayData.package > Books.Xml.

Details
Fix the Books.Xml entries for new books in Ep11.

These Ep11 books were added in the game patch 1.63 for Into The Future expansion.

Even without installing this expansion pack, the Book Club still use these General Books as weekly gifts when your Sim joins them, causing the game localization logic to return an empty book title (because the titles comes with Ep11 game files), after attempting to translate the title to your language (including English).

Ths main problem is these Ep11 books were created without the "CodeVersion" Xml parameter. See below.

To apply the fix yourself :
1. Extract Books.Xml.
2. Edit the text file with your favourite text editor.
3. Find book titles "EP11FlavorBookXX", where "XX" is a number from "1" to "20".
4. Add the parameter "<CodeVersion>EP11</CodeVersion>" to all these books. See sample BookGeneral entry below.
5. Save the change, rebuild, and deploy your package.

<BookGeneral>
<Title>EP11FlavorBook1</Title>
<Author>EP11Author1</Author>
