Wish: Fix some useless features.. and something about FFSdebugger

[jonayla]

Hi,

Starting a new topic here because I didn't find a request forum (yeah, I'm dyslexic, hence lazy search)

I was thinking if there's an block thingy for though bubbles. I hate thought bubbles. I know you SHOULD be able to hide them with ShowHeadliness off - but I'd like it to be permanent. Or at least as long as I play and reset when gameplay end - which ever could be easier to do. I'm making movies and it's really annoying to have to destroy half the takes because of the bubbles/effects/whatevers. ShowHeadlines seems to like to be "on" sometimes anyway. The same goes with plumbbobtoggle..

I was also thinking if it's possible to add weather/season changes to ffsdebugger, I love the MOAR! feature.

And badge editing (under Upgrade sim ->) straight to gold.

And skill maxing (all skills up to nine lvls or something like that)

Oh oh oh and if it could be possible to add temperature fixing in ffsdebugger as well? It's hard to shoot anything when the "actors" are having heat strokes all the time (or freezing their hineys)... (meaning resetting temperature to green manually)

I know these features can be found on various hack objects/hacks/stuffets, but it would be very convenient to find them "all-in-one"

Thanks for reading. 

And If I'm really as stupid as I think and have had this fine thing slipped of my range, please point me to the right direction..

EDIT: explained

No need for that.

I'm going to do one thing for you before the carnage commences:

userStartup.cheat

Go ye forth unto the internet and search on that phrase.

Pescado doesn't take requests. He only has great ideas he is glad he thought of.

[Kyna]

Pescado isn't into cheating to make the game easier.  Many of his hacks are designed to make the game more challenging (e.g. harderjobs, no20Khandout), not less challenging.  He is extremely unlikely to make hacks that will max out skills and badges without any effort.

Your best bet is to ask in the WCIF thread if anyone knows of hacks that will do the things you are looking for.  Insim provides at least some of the features you are looking for, but hasn't been updated yet for Free Time.

[mildlydisguised]

Can't you do all these things with testingcheatsenabled?

[Inge]

One approach I have been thinking about is that each of those bubbles and stuff is an image stored in a file.  It should be possible to replace all those images with nothingness.

[J. M. Pescado]

Features that are trivially performed in-game will never be a part of the Lot Debugger. They are just not necessary. For instance, skill maximizing...why? Just turn on debug mode, click, and drag to taste. No hack is required. So why should I waste time redundantly coding a trivial feature that already exists? Badge Editing: Spawn the Badge Juicer. No hack required. Temperature Fixing: Will consider. It'll probably be more aimed towards setting the local temperature and not towards adjusting sim temperature, though. Because it would be funny to set it to "Heat From Hell" for the heck of it. But basically, if a non-hack does it, I'm not going to bother adding it, it would be a waste of effort to reproduce what was trivially included in the game itself.

For the heat issue I'm using Inge Jones' Air Conditioner (for my gym-rooms) it works perfectly well. I don't know if it's usable outdoors though. The Air-Conditioner in conjuction with Inge's "Ceiling Object Hider" works perfectly for me.

[Inge]

No it doesn't work outside.  Air conditioners tend not to.  My approach is diametrically different from Pescado's, I try to make realistic hacks, not wreak armageddon or utopia

However, like in real life, it makes the Sims aware that they can go indoors and stand near the air conditioner until they are a comfortable temperature again.   In my game they always do so in time before they collapse.

For what I know, ShowHeadLines off has to be applied on every sim individually. Putting it on userStartup.cheat won't do the trick. Or didn't do for me. If someone managed to do it, great for them.

Temperature Fixing: Will consider.

If we had a real-life air conditioner, we'd have no green house effect

Inge I love your air conditioners works great for gyms.  I was wondering, if it doesn't work outside then will it not work for the pleasant's atic room, I was thinking that would help because I have tryed everything to keep them from freezing and overheating in there--Stupid EAxis!!!  On the debugger mode,  it would be awesome to be able to respawn pet graves--:)  The respawner is invaluable to me since I have lost all my graves twice.  But it doesn't seem possible to get a pet's tomb back.

I CANNOT believe that no one has poked you with a very sharp, pointy stick for this most asinine of comments.

People! We have standards here at MATY, do we not? This noob has admitted to two cardinal sins: laziness and the "excuse" of dyslexia! If we do not poke with sharp pointy sticks, it will be glomping and emoties next!

Please, won't someone think of MATY?

I cant seem to stress this enough online or IRL.  YOU'LL NEVER FIND SOMETHING THAT ISN'T THERE!


*request forum bold by me*

[Ellatrue]

The insiminator does all of these things. Why are you here?

[Inge]

Process Denied, I already tried the conditioner in the attic rooms at the Pleasants and you're quite right they don't work for that reason.  So I rebuilt the walls in their house that were attic walls, and that did the trick.

I'm sorry! I can help....

[mitchellcjs]

Jonayla, is it?  Ok.  First things first.  Have you READ THE DAMN FAQ FOR MATY?  Secondly, shameless begging and premade excuses are not ok.  Thirdly, Dyslexia is a condition, but LAZINESS is a crime.  Grow up, search, and try again.  We'll be waiting with pointed sticks in hand.  This is your warning.

[gynarchy]

I want a pony and a million dollars. I bet I'll get my request first!

[Kristalrose]

OOh, you're a brave one, Joyayla. . . keep this in mind for next time. . .

[Gwill]

I can't be bothered to give the overhaul that's deserved here, so I'll just post some macros as well.

Are you implying that my hacks aren't realistic? The Lot Debugger's temperature adjuster isn't meant for creating armageddon or utopia. It's purely a debugging aid. It's not meant to represent or cause anything. When I make an actual THING, it is generally meant to emulate some manner of realism, or at least consistency.

[jonayla]

Hahaha, you guys are so funny! 

This is the best forum I've ever visited! It's full of flamers who think better of themselves and will actually waste their own time sending posts that either state that they're actually like that in real life OR they think anonymity excuses all manners and would - instead of showing their intelligence and knowledge - let other people hope it's not someone who you know in real life... I hope you people don't have kids, I wouldn't want to see them grow up like you.. Or at least let's hope your behavior is like this only online.

Keep sending nasty replies, so I can waste my time reading them! Thanks for daddy's trust fund, I'm able to.
