Hey, sorry about this ask, but I'm trying to figure out a bug with BetterNightlife. You've said that dawn and dusk being enabled in lighting mods (in this case the original Gunmod's Radiance Lighting) is what causes the night lighting to not properly turn on and off (unless you reload a lot as I've come to learn). But I disabled dawn and dusk in the Radiance lighting txt file, and still have that issue. Am I missing something here?
Hey anon! No reason to be sorry at all. Unfortunately, I have zero experience with Gunmod's Radiance Lighting thus I don't know how this dawn and dusk enabling/disabling works. Probably, there's still dusk and dawn 'stages' in the shader the game refers to and only visual part of it is switched off. Better nightlife isn't great in terms of coding (since I'm no coder, I've just compiled some pieces together and certainly, there are bugs). In some cases, you can force decorative neighborhood lights to lit up by placing and turning on a lamp post at the edge of a lot
In your post 158144252756, you also wish that there was a way to lower the hood roads. Have you or anyone else found a way to do so? Thanks in advance, love your content.
Thank you Kaylynn! And no, there's no any progress on this subject. I'm definitely lacking of knowledge here and I'm very looking forward to @lazyduchess further research on lot skirt appearance. May be when the lot skirt terrain will match the neighborhood mode terrain visually, we could change the way the game parses roads in neigborhood mode too!
hi! Do you know how to make a sim immune to death by fright? I want to have many ghosts on my sims house but the whole family (the ones i want alive) are dying by fright
Hello Vackaloka! Oh, I have no idea. My gameplay experience is so poor I never had my sims die from fear, if I'm honest. Well, I can hardly remember when anybody of my sims ever died actually O_O
Not because they're immune to death, though. It's just.. I haven't play my game properly yet, lol

Hi Criquette, can you share with us tricks for creating functional lots on curved road hood deco?
Hi Aunty SimsGรถttin! There's nothing special about it :) The best way to place lots on curved roads is to use lot adjuster. First, you need to move your lot where you want it to be, and then put some decorative roads so that the lot would look connected. I'm not too strict with portals myself because I like the goofiness of sims walking through hedges and drive off into neighboring greenhouses, but there are lots of options to arrange everything the way it would look legit.
If you're making a custom neighborhood with your own SC4 map you can try and plan some real road stripes here and there just to be connected with curved pieces together later in TS2. Barger street, Feverfew is a nice little example of such approach: the straight pieces are real and connected together with decorative curved pieces making it look as a nice little winding street. Place some lots on straight pieces and you're sorted!
