BO - Phones for All
x 32
Do you recognize this?
You tell your sim to call someone, and there's that friggin' message that the target sim has no phone, and that you can't call sims that have no phone.
Now you can either quit the current household, move into the target sim's household (if they have one) and buy them a phone, or you can use some cheats to get that sim over, and slip a cell phone in their pocket... Rather annoying, isn't it?
No more of that! Phones for All simply pretends that all teens and older that do NOT live at the current lot, own a cell phone. So, as long as the target isn't a child, and you know them, you can call them, ALWAYS! Whether they really have a phone or not!
NOTE: Since cell phones were introduced in the University EP, you need to have at least UNI or one later EP/SP installed for this mod to work. Base Game just won't cut it.
UPDATE: Februari 15, 2012: The initial version had a 'feature'; due to an omission on my part, it treated sims of the current family as if they ALSO had cell phones. This was nice when the sim was called, because you could see their butt ring, even if they did NOT have a cell phone. But it was not so nice when you wanted them to call someone, because they didn't actually have the device. Also, it prevented you from using cheats to actually give them a cell phone! The new version addresses this issue!

EP check isn't needed for this one, so that's no problem. If you mean that there is no phone in their inventory: of course not! We're not here to give them stuff!
If you mean that you still get the message when you call them, then we need to figure out why. Have you run the HCDU?

Magicslippers, you confuse the poor, slightly retarded modder, making it cry. Please, make your next attack a little more pronounced and clear.

The child was trying to ring 2 sim bin children who had come home with him off the school bus and getting the message that so and so doesn't have a phone!
I haven't tried the HCDU as I am used to it not running-on my main game. It just hangs up overwhelmed with the amount of hacks in there I guess! But this is my Any Game with just a handful.
I'll remove them all and just try the phones for all by itself and see what happens. It only takes a couple of minutes to load.
Edit 3: Never mind it was my mistake. I was trying to ring a child as that is the only sim bin sims my sims know. I just read it's for teens and older. Big Oops.
Edit: Pulling the mod folder didn't change anything. The only other items are some build cc and defaults. I'll try pulling those as well. is there anything about an Any Game that would cause it not to work?
Edit 2 I pulled everything except for your phone mod and no change. Am I mistaking what this mod does?
