Global Mod: Mirrors Go Down With Walls
Here are two small mods (in one .rar file) that make mirrors and medicine cabinets disappear from view when walls are down.
Sept. 26, 2015 UPDATE #1: Apartment Life is NOT required for the mirrors anymore! Yay! Thanks to @NixNivis and @BoilingOil for helping with that! Please redownload if you need the fixed version.
Sept. 26, 2015 UPDATE #2: Medicine cabinets are now shiftable, but sim animations will only line up perfectly when the cabinets are used in their original positions. Please redownload if you want the shiftable medicine cabinets.
ADDITIONAL THANKS TO: Goggalor for the original mod, Kiri and Lee for teaching me how to do this, and Honeywell whose closets mod inspired me to finally make this one.
PIC CREDITS: Hospital equipment, hospital curtains, hospital gowns, ceiling tiles.
- Works on all Maxis mirrors and should also work on all custom mirrors.
- Makes most mirrors shiftable if you have Apartment Life, because it's an edit of Goggalor's shiftable mirrors mod.
- You must delete Goggalor's shiftable mirrors mod and replace it with mine. They will conflict, but my mod includes Goggalor's shiftability so you won't lose anything.
- You must delete and rebuy mirrors/medicine cabinets already placed on lots in order for the change to take effect.

@fanseelamb, yep, as long as the BHAV format is 8007, that mod should be basegame compatible, too.
Re the medicine cabinets, try changing the Adjustable Height line to "set flag" instead of the current "clear flag". (It's easily done with the Instruction Wizard, "set" is right above "clear" in the dropdown.) That should do the trick.
Actually, this is something that confuses me a bit about the mirror mod, because I noticed those BHAVs, too, are set to clear the flag for AL shiftability - but normally, clearing the flag for something means you turn that function off. But the mirrors are most definitely shiftable, so it works. Except it shouldn't. Yeah, confused Nix is confused.
Edit: Just read what you said to Lee more carefully. If I were you, I'd try changing the mirror BHAVs from "clear flag" to "set flag", too - it might very well help with the mirrors that refuse to shift.

@fanseelamb, I just checked it myself, and it does indeed make the KRABB mirror shiftable... but for some inexplicable Maxis reason, it'll only shift upwards, not up and down like the rest of them. Yeah, I have no idea what's going on there, but at least it moves?
And you're very welcome, I'm happy to help. I'm crazy enough that I think these things are fun.
