TS2 Enhancer Ver. 1.4.1 released.

Version 1.4 includes compatibility updates to allow TS2 Enhancer to work with the Pets Expansion. In addition to updating to the new character format for all characters a limited number of attributes are also available to change for the pets. In addition to the compatibility update this version also includes a couple of small fixes for other issues. The most substantial being an error that would incorrectly prevent the main neighborhood file from loading in some cases.

Please note that unlike all previous updates this version is not a free update. Those that have previously purchased TS2 Enhancer will be able to purchase it at a discounted update price though after providing proof of a previous purchase.

TS2 Enhancer Ver. 1.3.1 Beta 3 released.

In addition to the updates described in the first 2 betas below this update includes a correction for languages that should allow it to correctly load all of the correct data for any given language. It is unknown whether or not the data will display correctly in all of them though. It has been checked in a few though and appears to display it correctly. An update has been made to the progress bar to better reflect the progress with loading data, a regression bug in the Vacation and Pension data has also been corrected. (It slipped by when the University update was made and has now been re-enabled) This release also corrects a bug in Beta 2 that caused backups to fail when the backup location hadn't been specified using the Change Backup Location.

TS2 Enhancer Ver. 1.3.1 Beta 2 released.

In addition to the updates described below this for Beta 1 update includes some minor interface updates and internal routine updates. These should correct the issues with characters not displaying correctly in descriptions as well. (This may also correct the characters for Asian languages as well but I'm not sure) This version also includes a new feature which allows backed up neighborhoods to be stored in any location. I.E. You can use a different drive if you want to cut down on space being used on the current drive. For those that already have backups stored in the default location changing the location will also give the option to move the old backups to the new location at the same time. The Lot Managed Jobs in the career section have been updated as well and the job levels updated to what I think are the correct descriptions. (Unemployed, Employee, Manager) It also should update properly now so the characters will get paid the correct amount if you give them a regular job after they previously had a lot managed job. Some missing information for University specific jobs (Hours and days worked) has also been updated.

TS2 Enhancer Ver. 1.3 Beta 1 released.

This version is to bring TS2 Enhancer into compatibility with the Open For Business Expansion. The initial release only includes data changes where necessary to allow for the new formats in this expansion. In addition to this a large portion of the program was written over again to better deal with the growing variations that can occur when various expansions are installed. This should result in easier updates with future expansions as well. Keep in mind that the initial release following beta will just be for compatibility and that another release is planned following that to add more features. I.E. This version is so everyone can use it now with the new expansion rather than wait for the new features.

This version is to bring TS2 Enhancer into compatibility with the Nightlife Expansion and enable new Nightlife specific changes to be made when that expansion has been installed. It also includes additional features for those using any previous game version.

Family Tree's can now be edited instead of just viewing them.

bulletTS2 Enhancer (Nightlife Release Candidate #4) Ver. 1.2.0 Build 140 released.

In addition to the items listed below this version includes code changes to make it safer to use. Specifically babies can no longer have aspirations adjusted which effects the other characters interacting with them (Apparently this is tied to the needs of the babies being recognized by the other characters). University classes have also been changed so they can only be changed using advanced mode. (With Nightlife installed changing the classes can cause the game to crash) Note: Following the final release of Version 1.2.0 I will be looking further into this to see if I can find a way to change the classes that is stable.
