I have a problem that I have not seen reported here. 
 My apartment sims' neighbors will not visit after accepting the invitation by phone when this hack is installed.
 I have tested it by removing one mod/hack at a time, and also by removing all mods/hacks and replacing them with the most recent version of The Director's Cut.  When apthack is removed the neighbors show up.
 I have to admit that I downloaded and installed the EA patch for Apartment Life.  Perhaps this is the conflict.
 I would really like to play with the Apthack.  Do you have some solution for me?
 

I have a problem with AL that I have not seen a post about yet.

My apartment dwellers cannot call each other on the phone or invite each other over for a visit by personally greeting.  They have high relationships scores.

This is very disappointing for me.  I had looked forward to inviting neighbors over for all the interactions you might have with sims not living on the same lot.

I use some hacks.  Mostly MATY, but also homework-on-the desk, and the power espresso by SimCutie.

Is this a "working as designed" feature?  If not, has anyone seen a hack that will give me these social options?

I am a first-time poster here.  I have read the forums carefully.  Please, I don't need a slapdown, I need an answer. 

Thank you

Yes, I know I am a noob.

Just to clarify.  I did try out my phone problem with other apartment dwellers, in other neighborhoods, both with sims already in place and sims that I created.  In the boxed lots and also CC apartment buildings.

It doesn't seem to matter how many people they know or whether they have gone to work, or a community lot.  They cannot call their neighbors or ask their neighbors to visit.

Sorry to annoy the moderators.

I have one problem with AL that I can't work around right now.  Riley can't call anyone on the phone.  I get the message that he doesn't know anyone.  He knows the people in the building and met someone on the street.  He has a 100 relationship score with Cho, too.
I wonder... can the residents of the apartments call each other?
I also notice that they can't invite their building neighbors over for a meal or to visit.
Is this what the designers intended?  I would like to see more neighborly interactions available.
This EP could really be so good.
