Hello, I would like to share with you a mod that I have been using in my game for quite a while.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: FIXED: Texts in other languages were missing completely!!! Because of it, the menus didn't work Now all text is in English (even for other languages). If you want to have a translation to your language, please send it to me and I will include it in the next update.

Mod name: "From Monday To Sunday"

What does it do?

Days of the week (Monday, Tuesday, ...) for The Sims 1 Weekends: Saturday and Sunday (NO work, NO school).

Features:

1. It shows visually the current day directly on the painting. (it changes automatically at midnight)

It's a modified painting that consists of 3 pictures (flowers)

Some of the pictures will change from white to blue. (details in the dowloaded zip file)

1. You can also ask it "What day is it today?" (this will display the current day in English and the number of the current week)

2. Keeps track of the number of weeks since the day you install it on the lot you are playing.

3. Automatically handles WEEKENDS

This means that from Saturday 00:00 a.m. to Sunday 23:00 p.m. your Sims don't go to work.

Sims who start at 00:00 a.m. are the first to not go to work on Saturday. They are also the first go to work after a weekend (Monday 00:00 a.m.).

You will not get a carpool warning and the car doesn't come.

Kids don't go to school.

On Monday, your SIMS MUST GO TO WORK, otherwise they're fired!!! This counts as not going to work twice in a row. This is the price for having the weekend free. They can, however, take the Friday free (if you want a longer weekend). And you will get a warning (the usual phone call), but it will be OK not to go, as long as they worked on Thursday.

From Monday to Friday the usual rules apply (once missed OK, twice missed FIRED). My Sims sometimes only go on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.

1. The first day (after you buy this object) is SUNDAY (BUT not weekend yet).!!! Your Sims ARE NOT EXCUSED from work!!!

The first weekend starts on the first Saturday!!!

1. At level 10 you can decide to keep the Sim's career, individually. (They won't be transfered to a different career). After the Sim is promoted to the highest level, a new option "Keep Level 10 Job" appears on the painting. It's not automatic. You have to do it before they go to work next time.

2. You can get some job or school information for the selected Sim (at any time).

3. You can unsubscribe from the newspaper. It stops coming, starting from next day. You can subscribe to it again if you wish.

4. Just in case there is a new version of this mod, you can write down the current week and day on a piece of paper. After installing the new version you will be able to adjust it back. It's on the painting's menu, section "Adjust ...". Both the week number and the day can be set there.

Well, unless you want to use it as a cheat. :)

The day can only be adjusted from Monday to Friday before 9:00 p.m (or from Saturday if the object is new). After that the weekend transition already kicks in. This is to prevent inconsistencies.

Install:

It's just a modified painting. Place the mod into the Downloads folder.

Dependencies:

This mod doesn't change the way other objects in the game work. This means that it works with the original objects.

It does, however, change some of their values temporarily.

It affects the following objects, both from the base game:

    Car Portal  (Career stuff)
    NPC Controller  (Newspaper delivery)

They are normally in the "GameData / Objects" folder inside the "Objects.far" package.

If you don't have "CarPortal.iff" and "NPC_Controller.iff" in the same folder next to the FAR file, then you are sure that you are using the original version of these objects.

Otherwise let me know in the comments section to prevent bugs or crashes in the game. We'll find a solution.

The "Stay at level 10" option is done directly on the Sim, so there is no problem there.

GUID: A20007A6 (and yes, I'm registered)

There shouldn't be any problem, but ... if there is a problem, please, check that no other object has the same GUID.

Uninstall (very important):

Uninstalling this mod during a WEEKEND can produce undesired results!!! (For example: The car / schoolbus doesn't come, your Sim can't go to work or school and they might be fired or the grades of the kids would go down.) It depends on the hour.

It's safe from Moday after 1 a.m. to Friday before 9 p.m. !!!

In the Game:

The modified "Three Flowers Paiting" is called "From Monday To Sunday". "Decorative" section of the Buy Catalog. Price: 25.
