Thanks a million for this!

It's really annoying and strange that if the couch is positioned against a wall,a Sim will stand in front of the couch to watch TV, thus blocking a sitting Sim's view. Now my Sims can sit on that lovely unused sofa and watch TV together as a family.

I can take a look into merging them in some way, perhaps so that if there is no chair to use they will then use this mods function.

You may have already thought of it, but would it be possible if all seats are taken, then the sim will choose to sit on the floor?

Certainly I can look into something. Watch this space.

I also have the sit-on-floor hack and would love to have them combined as peggyswan suggested.

Looking into it since it seems a popular suggestion.

EDIT: I believe they could be merged. Just awaiting an answer from Squinge that he is ok with that.

Mostly I fix Gameplay annoyances. I take requests and have made a few Requested mods already. Visit me on MTS Yearbook

Use the cheat boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true, and then use < and > keys to turn object 45 degrees.

I hope he is. Squinge hasn't always been very willing to *play nice* with others in the past, but I do hope he "lets" you try combining the two mods, as that would be terrific!

Thanks a million!!!! My quads can finally all watch tv with their parents on the giant sectional I built them. Amazing how such a "simple" design feature can totally affect your enjoyment of the game. Again, brilliant!

I only discovered this game a year ago. I still spend an embarrassing amount of time playing. Without having my game hacked and modded to the nuts it just wouldn't be the escapism it is. Thanks for continuing to keep Sims 2 going. I'll be so sad if it becomes obsolete.

Now if only the BV tents could be fixed.....

It's not like somebody owned an idea because they wrote a piece of code for it first. 'I've looked at their code and created something similar' would be all that's required, methinks.
