Ani's Tax Collector not working

Post by KittyTheSnowCat » November 2nd, 2015, 2:37 pm

Hello,
I downloaded the Tax Collector Mod and for some reason the Computer is a normal Computer with one empty pie menu piece and I can place the Donation Box but both Interactions I see also have no String and one is white instead of blue. When I click the first one a window opens, I think it is for renaming, but I can't type anything in it.
Delphy's Dashboard showed no conflict and I can't find the problem anywhere, so does anyone know someone who had the same problem or has an idea what might cause it?
i am very thankful for help

Hi there, and welcome to NRaas,

I haven't used the [URL=https://wwww.nraas.net/community/Tax-Collector">Tax Collector</a> mod from Ani_ before, so I am unable to help you out setting it up. Though we have some instructions in our <a href="http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Tax+Collector+FAQ]Tax Collector FAQ[/URL] how you are able to do that.
There is also a vid from Ani available on youtube which illustrated how she had set it up in her game: https://youtu.be/9sE9mxMG8wM.

Other instructions what might not be written on the FAQ:
- Have you cleared your Cache files after placing the mods in your Mods\Packages folder?
- Are you using the right Objects to link the Computer with the Donation Boxes?

As for using Delpy's Dashboard to check for conflicts is mostly in regard to tuning mods, unfortunately that doesn't include these type of mods (scripting).

If those instructions don't work in the FAQ or Ani's vid, hopefully someone who successfully is playing with the tax collector mod can help you to figure out why it's not working on your machine.

Cheers!

@J4Ks: I'm no expert on this side of things but could it have something to do with the STBL's? Sounds like the text is not displaying properly.

@Kitty: The computer is just like the cheapest base game computer. It should appear next to the original unmodded one in the catalogue as described in the FAQ's linked above. :-)

@Kitty: Sorry, the location of the computer is described in the Tax Collector Interactions, not the FAQ's. :-)

@Sarah; I've checked the STBL's in both files and the only one that is fully filled in that's English. So maybe you are on to something, if Kitty indeed has the game installed on another language.

Lemmie see if I can fix that, though all the interactions will be in English.

I've synchronized the STBL's to reflect, what's in the English language so even if you have the Sims installed in another language the mod should still be functioning, although displayed in English.

Thank you =) I have indeed installed the game in French to practice vocabulary.

Ahhh maybe you can translate French? :-) If so, I can post the STBL for you and all you have to do is translate the English strings into French. Just say the word :-)

I believe J4Ks created the page for you but forgot to tell you: <a href="http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Tax+Collect ... +German</a>
