Which mod you're using to control the Eco Footprint?

None yet. They footprint system seems to work okay as long as I stick with one household. Only when I switch households and later return to the first, that neighborhood's footprint is all over the place. I haven't yet found a mod that addresses this particular problem.

Yeah my problem is also with rotational play.

None yet.

Basemental Eco Hacks:

I use it to keep it industrial. Sorry, I don't want it green and perfect for my current story.

EDIT: Scarlet is no longer supporting her one mod and recommends Basemental

I first found Scarlets mod for it but as Ann points out, it's not being supported anymore.

Scarlet's Mods - No Eco Footprint Decay:

No longer supporting.

There’s too many issues, technicalities, and complications with the Eco Footprints for me to continue trying to get this mod working properly. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough scripting knowledge to convert it to a script. Luckily, however, Basemental does and uploaded his version that’s included in Basemental ????? as a stand alone to ModTheSims.

I highly recommend using his. It has more options than this one did anyways.

Before installing Basementals version, the eco footprint kept flip-flopping for no reason. (I'm only playing one household in this save file.) Now everything works perfectly with the mod.

No Mods, I don't use them. I just have everything Eco turned off for now by default until all the pre-patch (gardening, OTG calls, etc.) and EL issues are properly fixed by the Devs.

I need help!!!!! I was staging a room for a new set I'm creating and I wanted some awesome sunlight so I moved my girl to San Myshuno to the little single house, everything looked amazing, the sunlight was shining brightly thru the large windows and then all of a sudden, it got dark, my inside lights are putting off NO light unless it's night time. And when I looked at the world it's all green and hazy.

I have everything turned off for eco lifestyle in the options.

So I googled how to turn off the smog and not effect other worlds besides the Eco one and I found the Basemental Eco Hacks mod.

I unzipped it, put it in my Mods/Script Mods folder, started the game, clicked the mailbox, nothing happened.

I re-read the directions and it said to only go one folder deep, so I moved it into just the Mods folder, started the game and tried again, still nothing happened.

I enabled cheats, typed in "basemental.ecohacks" into the cheat bar, nothing happened.

What am I doing wrong?

***EDIT*** ...... Got it working! (I'm blonde in RL too) .... I didn't have script mods enabled in the options. :o

To be honest I don't even pay attention to the Eco Footprint anymore. It's just always neutral unless you force it not to be and the benefits of a green world are so nonexistent I can't be bothered to cheat it to green

@Onverser This is why I need the mod if I want an industrial footprint. I don't want it green or neutral. I want the hazards of acid rain and negative moods for my story. There may not be a reason to go green as you said but there are reasons to go industrial.

The Basemental Eco Hacks is such a cool mod! I've temporarily got it out of my game, but the few weeks I used it, it was really good.
