Hi, first of all THANKS for keeping this alive! I can't believe Maxis/EA don't make an option to disable cell phones in the game!

Second of all, I have downloaded this mod and applied it, enabled it in game, even restarted my game with the mod enabled, but my Sim is still autonomously whipping out her phone to play video games. It's really frustrating. Any advice?

Edit: And she just browsed the web.... even with the mod enabled. I appreciate your continued support....

Possible that they changed the core-code again (though I don't understand their reasoning because it NEVER makes anything better) or, are you using MCCC? Unfortunately, MCCC is not compatible with other no-autonomy mods because one of its modules does the same thing so, sometimes they cancel each other out and other times they interfere so much that neither a mod nor MCCC is properly working, even when it's just xml-mods.

Unfortunately it will be another few days until I can update my mods (though I will) because I don't have the university pack yet.

Hi again, Just want to add that I don't have any expansion packs or stuff packs (other than the Holiday stuff, if that counts). I am not using MCCC.

All right, then it needs an update. I will update all my mods within the next 3-4 days. I'm sorry that it won't be working properly until then.
