nobuskers question

[pearlbh]

I just noticed that the nobuskers hack is on the list of hacks that are not working with Nightlife...  I've had it in my downloads folder all along and haven't noticed any problems.  So, what problems might it be causing with NL, exactly?  This is one of those hacks I think I'd go insane if I didn't have, so I'm inclined to just leave it in there....

Yeah I was wondering the same thing.  WHY on earth would you try to solicit tips from your own family?  And why must you perform for tips every freaking chance you get?  I was trying to get two sims that live in the same house to interact with each other, and every time the one would drop the jar and sit down, I'd cancel it and they still had to go through the whole loop, by which time the other sim had wandered off to do something equally annoying.  I'd drag them back over, and by that time, the other sim was back putting the tip jar out again.  Lather, rinse, repeat.  So STUPID.  Yet another indication that Maxis never really played this game.

Same here. If it wasn't for this hack I wouldn't have any musical instruments in my houses.

To be honest, I'm not sure why Pescado's doesn't work, but I trust that Boris knows what he's talking about.

TwoJeffs has a busker tipping hack that's on his list of working hacks with Nightlife though.

*edit: make sure you don't use them both together, it's a one or the other deal*

Unfortunately, that's not the same thing. And twojeffs says that they're compatable.

Hey. The nobuskers hack doesn't work for me either. Maybe it only works if you had it installed before you installed NL? Dunno.

[Pegasys]

Huh? I just installed it and it seems to be working for me - I have NL...

Weird. Is it supposed to keep people from busking in dorms too? (During normal gameplay- not a party.) I thought it was.

Maybe it's because I installed it and then loaded a saved game where someone was already in the middle of busking?

[J. M. Pescado]

Dorms are considered a valid location for buskers due to the fact that there's generally a large population of wandering people to solicit tips from. Frathouses and rentals are not, since these lack audience.
