Title: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 22, 17:20:04 http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=185019
Supposedly only allows sims would are married/engaged/going steady to have jealous reactions. Not fully tested for OFB. Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Gwill on 2006 August 22, 20:40:41 I like the concept. I think I'm going to try it out for a while.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 22, 20:52:20 It would keep your teenage townie hearthrob from getting upset when their crush grows up and starts having kids. =p
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Tyyppi on 2006 August 22, 20:55:09 Sounds like a good hack. The damn sims are so jealous that it's almost sick.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2006 August 22, 21:04:27 I thought this was mostly covered in the Romance Mod, really...for obvious reasons, I doubt the two can be used together, so if you trade in your Romance Mod for this, you'll get your random, completely baffling spaz attacks and cow predation back.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Gwill on 2006 August 22, 21:10:44 Could we get the exact workings on the romance mod?
All I read about it was that it was dependent on aspiration and personality. Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 22, 21:22:02 Yeah, it's in the director's cut, but there is no RTFM for it, and you're unawesome if you put something in your game without knowing what it does.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2006 August 22, 21:24:39 I think the documentation for it is in the old Uni-version package.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Gwill on 2006 August 22, 21:29:52 You really don't want people to RTFM, do you?
Quote "But Mr Dent, the plans have been available in the local planning office for the last nine month." I just felt like quoting that. ;)"Oh yes, well as soon as I heard I went straight round to see them, yesterday afternoon. You hadn't exactly gone out of your way to call attention to them, had you? I mean, like actually telling anybody or anything." "But the plans were on display ..." "On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them." "That's the display department." "With a flashlight." "Ah, well the lights had probably gone." "So had the stairs." "But look, you found the notice didn't you?" "Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'." Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2006 August 22, 21:34:03 The new standalone version of it has been placed up for OFB/NL. Now you can read the RTFM in all its majesty. It's not a new update or anything, I just extracted the DC version.
And leopards pwn you. Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 22, 21:38:08 Could someone PM me the RTFM? (Not the file, but the text. Still cannot dl stuff until this weekend)
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Gwill on 2006 August 22, 21:43:12 Could someone PM me the RTFM? (Not the file, but the text. Still cannot dl stuff until this weekend) Quote CHANGES: Significant alterations to the way romance and jealousy works: 1. Sims can now exhibit loyalty to existing relationships and do not randomly fall in love with anyone who happens to flirt with them. Pleasure sims have resistance only when in a committed relationship, Romance sims have none. All other sims have resistance values if they already are in a relationship. This value increases with level of commitment. Object-assisted actions not presently supported and bypass this check. Still provides defense against cow attack! 2. Sexual orientation of a sim now actually matters! A very straight sim will decline homosexual interactions and vice-versa. 3. Sim-jealousy will make more sense: Romance/Pleasure sims, depending on personality(Nc+Pl+Ou >= 15), are more likely to have "open" relationships (Pleasure sims only do this outside of commitments), and will not become jealous (although some are simply hypocrites who think the rules apply to everyone but them and pleasure si), and sims will no longer spaz at random people for no discernably sensible reason. Romance sims should never spaz. It is no longer defined as "cheating" if you are not in an actual committed relationship, and you will not have knives-memories or "caught cheating" fears satisfied unless you are actually caught by a partner in a committed relationship (steady/engaged/married). 4. Flower rage is stomped. Sims no longer spaz out when looking at datereward, since these have no timestamp and could pertain to a preexisting relationship or one that no longer exists. Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 22, 22:08:57 Yeah, okay this is much better. I will have to shove it back into my folders. =p
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: syberspunk on 2006 August 23, 03:00:43 Heh. Was there ever any doubt? MATY pwns you! Everything else is pretty much non-awesome. ;) :-*
And what's the deal lately with all these new modders cropping up redoing work that's been done. It's kind of great that more and more people are getting into modding and what not... but why redo work? Why reinvent the wheel? What kind of programmer/modder are you if you're not being beneficially lazy? In other words, what's the point of putting work into something that's already been covered unless you're actually putting your own unique spin to it. What a waste of energy and effort. Now I don't mean to seem all high and mighty and what not, because I am certainly far from awesome myself, but it kind of seems pointless to me and lazy, but in a bad way. It's good to be lazy about seeing if other people have done work that you can actually build upon, but it's bad to be too lazy to actually bother searching if something has already been done. Now I know there are several modding sites out there... and one can't be expected to scour the entire net to see if a hack already exists... but when the hack already exists on the very site you are posting... ::) Plus, I also think that pumping out junk tends to just produce inferior work, add a bit to the confusion, and possibly lead to potential conflicts for the less informed end user. I know someone already mentioned this in RL, but I just felt like bitchin here. :P Ste Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Jelenedra on 2006 August 23, 15:22:24 It's a good point, I just remember in some other topic here someone was talking about jealousy like this.
Title: Re: New jealousy hack at MTS2... Post by: Gwill on 2006 August 23, 16:44:41 This particular hack was a direct responce to a request in the MTS2 forums from someone who had tried awesomeness but wanted something simpler apparently.
