ng takes on critical mass purely from the ghosts....as you can read about in the Adventures.
So what are these Adventures and where can I read them |

Thanks! Going to give it a try now. Hmmmph. Seems that it's forbidden to download rar's, but not upload them  . Or the file might be oversized... dangitk, that might be it. I'll figure something else out, like waiting for the exchange login server to stop being an invalid. edit: Well it's not *dignified* but it works Click here to get the dorm |

Well, I finally cracked this just before I posted a message saying it wasn't working. The stupid site covers the download link with an even stupider ad just before it changes to "Download Here". How ridiculous can you get? Anyway, thanks for this and I still have one question: Do you play the dorm with this mod in, or do you not need the dormie mod with this dorm? |

Well, I finally cracked this just before I posted a message saying it wasn't working. The stupid site covers the download link with an even stupider ad just before it changes to "Download Here". That ad reminds me of those flash games where the image and scream from exorcist randomly flashes up "halfway" through, except the ad is more obnoxious. Anyway, thanks for this and I still have one question: Do you play the dorm with this mod in, or do you not need the dormie mod with this dorm? I imagine the concept should work with any cofiguration of hacks. Dormies would just be more ADD without no-invulnerability. |

got it now, Thank you  edit - it has the phone hack and a "jackgnome" in it, no problem since I use clean installer but I thought I would warn you. I seem to be having trouble with stripping them out, I'm not in the habit of uploading lots but I thought the following procedure did the trick: Package lot. Install with clean installer, deselecting everything except lotsegment. Start game without any hacks loaded. Install the lot in a virgin neighbourhood. Repackage the lot, for upload this time. But it seems that the extra plugins stick around. Does my ignorance betray me or did the patch change something? |

The thing that disturbs me about Cranky Steve's Haunted Whorehouse is (and keep in mind my eyes aren't as sharp as they use to be) that there isn't a washbasin to be seen in any of those bathrooms!!!!  |

There doesn't need to be. In Soviet Russia, bathroom uses YOU! I don't get it, what are the toilets for?  (day time, i guess  ) The terlets are for people who don't want to have an accident. Dormies, of course, never seem to avail themselves of the plentiful terlets, and pee themselves anyway, even during the day. |

I seem to be having trouble with stripping them out, I'm not in the habit of uploading lots but I thought the following procedure did the trick:
Whenever I want to package a Lot, I exit the game and remove my hacks folder(and sometimes I remove the whole Downloads folder) and then I re-enter the game and package it, then I exit and put my hacks back in ASAP!  Sometimes I use a "clean of custom content and hacks" set of my doc files for building if I know ahead of time that I want to build for packaging and shareing. Oh! *just thought of something* disabling hacks won't stop them from tagging along, you must remove them totally. |

I figured it out. Renaming the downloads folder isn't enough, it needs to be moved out of the folder completely. Bleh! This game is more persistant than most. If anyone else wants it I've uploaded it to the exchange now that it's working link is here. (the exchange download should be clean) |

I decided to try playing a (vanishing room) dorm without the no-invulnerability hack, turns out the dormies don't need to sleep, they stay awake all the time... kind of creepy. So I have to say that using a vanishing room + invulnerable dormies is not much fun, unless you actually want them to stay awake all the time group researching and stuff. (I suppose automated study-buddies could be semi-useful  ) |

I'm always irritated that my Sims have no-one to socialise with between 2 and 7 am, so there's a reason for not using the invulnerability hack. I'll probably use it with that hack in, though.

Dormies will tend to sleep during the day rather the night, just like a normal sim . In fact they pretty much just end up sleeping at random times, so there are nearly always dormies to interact with. |

Of course, this way they didn't fight me for the one double bed (in your dorm  ) |

I ended up creating my own dorm its very spiffy. I used the vanishing dorm idea so i got only the tinest corner for the myne doors. Now i'm curious to see how long it'll take for everything to go to hell. There's beds available for dormies this time round so they shouldn't pass out nearly as much but then again...
