the right visitor controller hack

[verdaeni]

im looking for two jeffs customer cntroller hack, not the visitor banner.   we talked about it, so i know its here, i even downloaded it once.   but i cant find it.   can someone help me out with a link?

[Ness]

that's because it's Pescado's customer selector...  http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,4568.0.html

okay thats good, but does this one allow you to up the number of customers?   i had a hot teenage site before ofb, and now there is no one in there.  other non selected stores also have no visitors.   i was looking to rtfm on the right one,  am i barking up the wrong hack?

The number of customers allowed on a lot by the Customer Selector presently obeys the Maxis ruleset. Options for increasing this limit as business rank increases to beyond Maxis levels will be taken under consideration. Not sure why your "teen hotspots" have died, other than that such a thing doesn't exist pre-OFB, as any random idiot will visit any community lot, regardless of how suitable it might be.

They were probably using Two-Jeffs paintings before.

yeah, the teen hotspot was with two jeffs red lady bannings.   i guess my hotspots are blue with cold forever now!  they were a great place to meet people, i just put the high advertisement draws in them and let people play while i took a game break.  well thanks for clearing that up.

[J. M. Pescado]

I think the reason your teen hotspots are dead is because the game previously imposed a draconian teen curfew that made it basically impossible for it to be an appropriate hour for them to appear. Something I had fixed that....

Ah, yes. Less Whiny included the fix for the bugged teen curfew hours. Apparently, in order for teens to be allowed to appear, the time had to be simultaneously less than a certain value, AND greater than another value that was bigger. This, of course, made it impossible.

i have less whiny.  but i have problems with my hacks,  where they dont seem to be working all the time.  i know this is impossible.  nevertheless it appears to be so.   sometimes payatbox works,  some houses it doesnt.   and so forth.  but the heat of the teen spot came from having every high advertising appliance possible.  if you impose ofb rules over this, which explains another lots poor draw,  my hotspot just gave up the thermal ghost.   i have an adult hotspot with all the games and toys and tv/game systems and computer/game systems and no one goes in there either.  now i know why.  stupid game wants me to build a clientelle.

Pay at box is a discontinued product not listed as compatible with OFB or NL, which is why it doesn't work. The presently recommended solution is the Hacked Windkeeperian, available in another thread somewhere.

I set InSim to auto-pay-bills   

InSims budget adjuster has a couple options for paying the bills 

[verdaeni]

smacks head with fist!  i thought i had gone through that list carefully.  okay no pay at box.   i'll keep my eye out for hacked windskeerarian  and what is InSim?  a hack or some of maxis variables?

[Avalikia]

But InSim is the puppy killer!  Won't someone please think about the puppies?
