Please be aware that I have not worked on this for a long time and it is incredibly out of date so it probably doesn't function properly
I have completely started again, please see my journal for reason and update progress
Uploaded WIP file.
This file includes interractions I feel some might appreciate to have for the time being whilst I finish the main version - some things may not work properly!!!
I would also appreciate if anyone downloads this version, that you could please let me know of any issues. So I can fix them in the main file before I finish and upload it. If you do so, please try and be as specific as you can as it makes it easier for me to locate the interaction tuning that isn't working out of a list of 400+ !!!
Read my journal for this mod to stay up-to-date with update progress Optional off-the-grid version
| OMG yes! Amazing work! Is it possible to have these be enabled as a computer? I have a crystal ball mod I use but this mesh is so much nicer! |
As requested by theflyinghipy on my Realm of Magic Familiar Orb Light, I have edited the familiar orbs from Realm of Magic to have computer functionality

At the moment your sims will just tap the desk, so it looks a bit strange. I will look at improving this if I am able (I only started modding July 2019!
)Plans:
• Change the animation (WIP)
Make functional off-the-grid
Update for Discover University
Current issue(s):
| I discovered another issue. If a vampire uses this to Research Vampires, they will not get credit for doing so for the Master Vampire Aspiration. This is true for the off the grid version. I do not have the normal version installed. |
You can find these here: Electronics > Computers for §750
Technical details (for creators):
For making it function off-the-grid:
Sims 4 Studio Post
Opened the interaction tuning I wanted to change, in this case it was computer_Chat
I added this code at the bottom of the xml:
<V t="zone">
<U n="zone">
<U n="zone_tests">
<V n="zone_modifiers" t="enabled">
<U n="enabled">
<V n="whitelist" t="specify">
<U n="specify">
<L n="whitelist">
<T>206665<!--zoneModifier_lotTrait_OffTheGrid--></T>
</L>
</U>
</V>

I also deleted this code from the same xml (it was at the bottom just above where I pasted the code above):
<V n="utility_info" t="enabled">
<L n="enabled">
<E>POWER</E>
</L>
</V>
