Default Watching TV from an angle
I swore there was a mod out there that let sims sit somewhere other than straight in front and be able to watch tv. Does anyone know if it's out there somewhere?

I do not use nay hacks, provided the TV is not at too great an angle in relation to the sofa - your sims should still be able to watch TV. (I tried it in game now. I placed the TV two grid blocks to the side of the sofa and they were able to watch without any problems.

I've never been married, but I tell people I'm divorced so they won't think something is wrong with me.

I know that works, but what I wanted was where the tv wasn't "in front" of the couch at all, but on another side, so the Sim would have to turn their head to watch, if that makes any sense.

The only mod similar to this that I'm aware of is the Sit on Floor to Watch TV @ Insimenator.

I have not seen a mod that lets your sims watch tv while using couches placed on the sides yet.

If anyone does know where a mod like this is, they'll post.

Pretty much I just wanted to know if there was some way to get a better result after using the 45 degree rotation cheat, though thanks for the link to that mod. Very useful!

I have a tv at 45 angle and the sims sit on the floor to watch. If your couch is also at a 45 angle they'll sit on the couch but not with one at 45 and one at 90

I hate how when the couch or chairs facing the TV is full, everyone else just stands in front of the seated Sims instead of sitting in the chairs/sofas that are not facing the TV but are to the left or right of the TV

I realize this is old, but I was wondering if anything new has popped up for this?
I want to place couches at angles, or put in L shaped couches, but the sims won't sit on the couch on the side, and rather stand in front of the other sims watching! It's really freaking annoying.
