No 'zzZZ' while sleeping (Global Mod) - UPD 02mar2008
* Global Mod *

WARNING: this is a Global Mod, i.e. it affects all the lots in all the neighborhoods; it might be unknowingly exported along with your lots, so always check them with the Clean Installer.

07 OCT 2007 - UPDATE
- Removed the "zzZZ" from Recliners and Coffins.
- Tested with Bon Voyage: the "zzZZ" is removed from tents and hammocks, too.
This is another instalment in my "No Visual Effects..." series. This specific mod has been requested to me by Mew_Mew.
Its purpose is very simple: remove the "zzZZ" effect when the sims are asleep.
It works for any age (including the sleeping babies and toddlers).
Game Compatibility - This Mod work in any game up to FreeTime. NOTE: there are high chances that the Mod will NOT be compatible with future expansions!
Installation: unzip to your Downloads folder (Q-Xpress is fine, too); to uninstall, just remove the file "Numenor_GlobalMod_No-zzz-while-sleeping.package" from the Downloads.
Technical explanation: this is a modded version of the following 'Text Lists 0x008F - Effects' (this mod is therefore incompatible with any hack the files listed below):
- Globals: line 0x0E stripped off;
- ChairGlobals: line 0x00 stripped off;
- Coffin: line 0x01 stripped off.
Redistribution Policy - Unlike my other creations, you can do whatever you want with this mod; crediting me is not required (though it would be appreciated: my ego always claims a slice of the pie
