More Awesome Than You!

This will be my first ever shared file.  This came from an AM request.  I sometimes see requests for things that I created XML hacks to do in my game, and thought-- in my Christmas Day boredom-- I might actually share one.

This simply increases the amount of visitors that will come ringing your active fambly's doorbell.  Warning:  It also manipulates the number of people at other venues in a way that I consider beneficial, but you may or may not.

I increased my own game's increase in the number of visitors to try to make sure people will notice the difference.  But don't worry, as it won't cause tons of visitors at any given time.  I know it works, as I've had it in my game since 1.7.9 and had a similar one before (I just had to update for 1.7.9 and 1.8 ).

Here's the Mediafire URL:  http://www.mediafire.com/file/wryuwimmodj/MoreVisitors.package (http://www.mediafire.com/file/wryuwimmodj/MoreVisitors.package).  If something's broken, please let me know.

UPDATED FOR AMBITIONS (I just realized this was needed):  http://www.mediafire.com/?m6u177lx4a5ex8g (http://www.mediafire.com/?m6u177lx4a5ex8g).

UPDATED FOR LATE NIGHT: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ovvscnkwfktpmm4/MoreVisitorsLN.rar (http://www.mediafire.com/file/ovvscnkwfktpmm4/MoreVisitorsLN.rar)

I was asking for help in getting more sims to visit the lots, and downloaded your file.  I do now have loads of visitors coming to the lots, so it worked for me......thank you so much  :-*

Does this work with WA?

I have WA and it works for me!

Yes, this should work with 1.7.9, 1.7.11, 1.8, and WA (tested by me only on 1.7.9 and 1.8).  I'm pretty sure any XML mod (as opposed to possibly some script mods or core mods) that works with 1.8 will work with WA, as in either case we're modifying the same Gamplaydata.package file.

It's very possible that even script mods and core mods are compatible with WA if they're compatible with the base game patch level you have (as AM is and Twallan's script mods seem to be), as EAxis may have done the same things with the files they modify that they did with the files XML mods modify, by updating the files in the patch and just requiring the EP to activate those parts of them.

Doesn't work anymore with AMB. If there could be an update to accommodate the new expansion pack, I will squeal happily and love you lots.  ;D

That's reason enough there not to update it.

Okay.  I just noticed the post.  I'll get an update in asap (I know, not much help now that a new EP is about to come out, which will make this one obsolete), but I mod the file for myself so it's just a matter of tweaking a few things (I put more visitors in the one I made than I put in my own) getting into my old account or creating a new one.

I'll also remember after Late Night comes out to post a new new one.

Late Night version is up (should work with the Late Night patch, with or without the expansion):

Mind updating this for the recent OLS patch?

^^ seconded, although now we might as well ask for a Generations update.  In any event, update humbly requested! :)  I'm tired of my "hot spots" being deader than an arctic winter.

I'll do a Generations patch update once I get the Generations patch, which probably will happen very shortly after Pescado puts up a non-test version of AM for that patch.  Mine didn't break when OLS came out, although it's possible I never patched to that, except that my other mods including AM all work, which I wouldn't think would be the case if I hadn't patched it but was using mods for the patch.

In the past, my mod has needed updates for EP patches, but not SP patches.
