I have another bug I found in the changing table. The top of the trash bin gets it's texture from the actual pad instead of wherever it's supposed to get it.

Otherwise I haven't had any problems with it.

Actually that's the way I placed it. I mean that was my intention. I wanted to top to match the pad of the changing table. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and to report that you've had no problems. I really appreciate it.

Hi!

I love these small baby items - ridiculous to have the nursery twice as big as any other room. I like compact houses, and usually do without the change table completely.

However, I am finding some problems - looks like all the same as others reported - endless floating ZZZ's, constant waking even when the toddler has not regained energy (no hack being used), and dropping from queue.

I have base game only. I downloaded the updated versions of change table and mat.

I have deleted the items and re-installed them, so when I open the game next, I hope the objects will work right. Just thought I'd report now, since the files I was using should have been the latest versions anyway.

Also having trouble with your toddler double bed, but I'll go report that in the appropriate thread.

Thanks for all the effort you have put into these objects - I am looking forward to using them.

Thanks you very much for your report. I am working on the zzzz's issure and hope to get it figured out today. I have found the section that it's in but I've yet to figure out exactally what line of code releases this.

Thanks again for your report.

Am i doing something wrong?

When I am the toddler and I click on the mat, it is 'unselectable' (the mouse turns greyish and you can't click on it). Is their something i'm doing wrong, or that i should have done?

Truly brilliant idea, and much needed - some of that EA/Maxis stuff takes up far too much room (imho). Congrats on being 'Featured' and thanks for taking time to create/upload/share with us!... :D

To all, of the very talented MTS-2 creative types - my sincere thanks for taking the time to create/upload/share...

More feedback...The change table keeps misbehaving, so perhaps you'd better flag it as requiring an (any) expansion pack.

The sleeping mat works for me, but it seems to become unusable at times with toddlers - they don't go there themselves, and won't be sent. Sometimes they go and sit as if they are going to get onto the mat, but they don't. I had to use another object to give the toddlers some rest at those times. Other times it all works fine.

This might be the same glitch reported above by chly1chly.

No problem with adults putting babies onto the mat (I had my first ever batch of twins, so I really appreciated the small mats to put them on, in my teeny little cottage).

I'll try the no-ZZZ version of the mat soon - thanks. Looks like I have to give up on the change table though, until I get an EP anyway.

Thanks for all your hard work.

Could you tell me what the changing table does for you? I have it in Life Stories and haven't had any problmes. Be sure you've downloaded the newest versions.

There were some problems with the game not ending the in use but I believe I've fixed that with there.

Thanks for taking the time to report the problems, but it would help me to know what was happening when the problems occured. I will spend more time with the items in Life Stories to see it I can generate any errors.

Please redownload as I have updated these issues. I fixed the zzzz issure and there was a conflict with one of the hacks, it is now compatiable.

Here is where you'll find the information:
http://www.modthesims2.com/forumdisplay.php?f=32

You download the files unzip it and place the package files in your My Documents\Sims 2\Downloads directory. You also have to enable custom content.

These are the basics...I really suggest that you read the information found under the link I've given.

Good Luck!

This is the coolest thing ever. All you have to do is potty train the kid and he's on his own from there.

Thank you ! This is very much needed for busy sims!

Thank-you so much for making these. I've always been bothered by just how much space that changing table takes up, and the smaller crib will be perfect for some of my little Sim townhouses.

These are great, but for some reason my sims can no longer take a baby off the mat!
Any suggestions?

First do you have the most recent update? I was having problems with the in use flag. I also suggest that you delete it and place replace with the newest update, within the household as this is necessary due to changes in routes.

I just wanted to comment on how much your patience is appreciated.

You don't take people's comments as them criticizing you and you're so sweet and diligent in trying to find the answer to the problems.

So this is more a thank you to who you are rather than a thank you about the objects. Though I do LOVE the idea behind these.

Hugs!

My love for you was so deep, It nearly destroyed me.

I think you're a genius, for figuring out some great mods that really enhance the game for those of us who like having toddlers in the game.
I have no problems with the mat or the table, except that when they are changing babies on the table, they do it one tile to the left, so the baby is in the air.
It doesn't effect the effectiveness, and the items are all great.

Please redownload the table. I fixed the position now they change from the front. You need to replace the old version and re-buy it on the lot you were using the former version and I changed the routes.
