Wow... where would us poor simmers be without you, Numenor?

Probably still mucking around with purely Maxis-made content....

Thanks!

GeneralOD - Thank you for the link! I thought that Gothika was talking about working (and not decorative) driveways in community lots; but anyway that collection is surely handy


Kelleinna - In this case, the entire add-on is "purely Maxis-made" content But I had to use my experience to understand which Maxis resources had to be extracted, and to understand how far I could go, without stepping on Maxis' toes
However, I've decided to make another step toward Maxis' toes... Just wait a moment

Default Update
DRIVABLE CARS WITHOUT NIGHTLIFE
Game Add-on by Numenor (and Maxis...)




11 NOV 2008 - Added Nightlife cars + Updated the "Stuff" archive
Please redownload the "Stuff.rar", because I forgot some animations for the "Smoogo Minima" car.
And enjoy the *FIVE* Nightlife cars, included in the "Cars.rar" archive (Hatchback, MiniVan, Sedan, PickUp and Sportscar).

I'd like also to better clarify the content and usage of each file attached to the first post:
  • It's mandatory to download the "Stuff.rar" and unpack it to your Downloads: it contains the "heart" of the add-on.
  • It's strongly advised to download and unpack the "Sounds.rar", too: without it, you won't hear any sound with the car animations.
  • Optionally, download and unpack the "Cars.rar", in order to get the 5 Nightlife cars.

I take it, then, that these items are not "usable" when so placed. I had wished, but definitely not expected, that the driveways, at least, would be usable. Still, decorative automotive stuff is better than no automotive stuff!

If you have Nightlife you DON'T need this add-on. That said, in order to place cars in a residential lot, you must first place a driveway, or the car won't "snap" to the ground.

Good news! The 'Drivable Cars Without Nightlife' add-on has been featured!

Considering that each and every bit of this add-on has been created by Maxis, we can say that Maxis gained its first (and last ) Featured item!!! -

This seems like such a great mod! My Nightlife disc is completely unusable because it's so damaged, so I had to uninstall Nightlife. Do the cars come with the original Maxis recolors or no?

All the 5 cars are already recolourable; if you install the CEP, you will get an additional recolourable part (usually the interior) on 4 of them.

Oops, lol, I've misread Yes, the add-on contain all the original recolours.
