That was what I meant...I know it isn't the CEP but Maxis is breaking/renaming stuff which the CEP then can't read properly...just giving poor Numenor a heads up cause without feedback they may not know what has been broken and needs fixing...I am happily playing my game as is right now and have removed CEP for the time being.
Thankies,

Does this work with Apartment Life yet?
Just wondering.

Hi!
First of all I would like to thank Numenor for the job... awesome!
I am writing because in these days I've installed Teen style stuff, Kitchen & bath stuff and Apartment Life and the CEP doesn't seem to be working anymore, at least not properly, in fact many objects I had installed in the game have now become blue and flashy... So, is it because you have to post a new version of the CEP that suits with AL or am I doing something wrong?? Maybe it's a silly question, I'm sorry I don't know much about the CEP... I'm no good in creating I just download XDXD Sorry!
Thanks!

This CEP has not been updated to Apartment Life yet, give Numenor some time

To: QueenofSnow

This CEP would work for you *if* you didn't have Apartment Life installed as it has not been updated to that expansion pack yet.

Great ! Thanks Numenor !

I wonder for the next update (up to Apartment Life)... International windows that came in Open for Business are overwrite with same windows in Apartment Life, and original recolors disappears, leaves only the red one. If you resolve that bug, it will be an excellent CEP Extra !

Yes, I'm aware of the problem arisen with those OFB windows after installing AL. It's the same that happened with the base-game toilet stall after BV.
I will surely include an Extra to fix that

Just let me update the BaseGameStarter, which is more urgent, and then I'll start working on the CEP.

Yep, Probably all your problems were already listed in previous posts by other CEP users. Always helpful to read back several pages to avoid duplication.

Currently, I know of one problem only, with Apartment Life: some windows from OFB lose their recolors. Are there other problems with AL that I'm not aware of?

I assume that you're already well aware of Phone Handset & Teddy Bear problem which started at IKEA pack.

Dynasty Dresser from base game, as discussed in this MATY thread.


I have a couple of requests like unrecolorable K&B deco objects or inclusion of Club Commercial Counter fix in CEP-Extra, but they definitely come as second to fixing AL borkiness.

Yes, phone handset bug is pretty bad really. Can I try to remove CEPExtra for now until that will be updated?

Also I cannot modify faces structure in the game anymore, I guess since IKEA. the dialog screen Vanity does not contain facial structure window. Try Shaklin unversal dresser - the plastic menu disappeared.

  • Dresser: Thanks for the heads up!
  • Phone handsets reverting to the base-game mesh: it has been fixed in CEP 8.1, and I tried today in my all-EP game, and they work fine (the right handset appear when I go to live mode). Doesn't it work for you? Or is there a different problem?
  • Teddy bears: you are right, it seems that AL has broken (among several other things) my CEP Extra that made all the four bears recolourable and wornable.
  • K&B objects: noted in my to-do list.
  • Commercial counter: good find Included in the to-do.

EDIT: I'm reading only now all the posts from mid July to late August, and I've found some other reports about the phones, though I can't replicate the problem. However I discovered some other interesting posts, that require my attantion (for example the trashcan not recolourable with lower graphic settings).

Ailias - As for the phone handsets, read above. In any case removing the Extra should fix temporarily the problem (you will lose the recolours for the base-game phones).
I don't understand the problem with the Vanity: do you really meand the face shape or the makeup? The face shape can only be modified with the special career object "Dr. Vu's Automated Cosmetic Surgeon", afaik.

You did fix it for FT in CEP 8.1, but then IKEA broke it again, as you've mentioned in this thread.
Probably it slipped from your mind, what with hectic real life and summer vacation. After all, this post is almost 3 months old.

Hey from Denmark. :p

First of all, kudos to you Numenor... I have the deepest respect for people that put so much work in to stuff like this. Your creations are fabulous. Think I got 'em all... :D

There are so many comments, so couldn't really find my way round 'em. Maybe this has been asked before... Has CEP anything to do with the loos of any other colors than red on the "ergo" windows from OFB?? I finally got recolors(any colors) to work on the toiletstall, but now they're missing in the windows.
Is it just me with this prob??

The missing colours in the OFB windows is a known problem introduced by EAxis with AL; I'm including a fix in the CEP, but in the meantime you can use this fix by Fat D.

AL replaced some of neighborhood decoration objects, much to many people's chagrin. This issue is discussed here.
I'm not sure if CEP can cover neighborhood decorations, just giving Numenor heads up.
