setHighestAllowedLevel not working

[Brion K. Lienhart]

I can't get this to work with Apartment Life. No matter what number I
set (I've gone as high as 10), by the time I get up to the walls on the
4th story I can't go up to even add a roof. I've gone back and forth
between build and buy modes, boolprop testingcheatsenabled on and off,
saving & going back to neighborhood, nothing works. Just a regular
house, not an Apt building.

I haven't used it in a while, because I recall that I always had
problems getting it working properly before anyway.

Try adding it to your userstartup.cheat file in My Documents/EA
Games/The Sims 2/Config. Just add a line somewhere at the beginning
before you get to any aliases you are using. I'll copy and paste my
entire userstartup.cheat file below to show you what I mean. I don't
have any trouble going up to 8 levels, counting the roof.

Known 'bug' - just grab one of the dormers in the roof section and stick it
on the top floor. It has a roof attached and placing the dormer unit will
open up the next floor up. You can hit the undo button to get rid of it
right away but the opened up level stays there.

Best wishes

Oooh, I'll try that. Thanks.
