Title: Changing hygiene value of tub/shower Post by: speedreader on 2006 December 08, 14:40:49 I have poked around in SimPE and done searches here and at MTS2 trying to figure this one out with no success.
I have a d/l tub and shower that were based on the cheap Maxis plumbing. Using them in my houses is a pain because everyone has to clean up twice a day, but I really like them. I'd like to increase the hygiene setting, but where do I find that value in the object files? I have successfully changed the settings for a couple of d/l beds without any trouble, but can't find settings for hygiene levels in plumbing! Thanks for any help.

ETA: just to explain more, that value seems to work this way. Showers have only one BCON: Tuning - Motives; bathtubs have Tuning - Bathing, Tuning - Toddler Bath and Tuning - Bubble Bath. Combo plumbings have those of bathtub plus Tuning - Showering. As a general rule, in bathtubs and combos, Toddlerbath tuning = bath tuning, bubblebath = -50 bath and in combos showering = +50 bath. These are all the values I collected from standard plumbing: Code: SHOWERS: Title: Re: Changing hygiene value of tub/shower Post by: Rose Outlaw on 2006 December 08, 18:23:31 I think I'm feeling bold enough to go and edit some custom showers and tubs.
Thanks for the guide :) Title: Re: Changing hygiene value of tub/shower Post by: speedreader on 2006 December 09, 04:36:30 Thanks Marhis, that's what I needed. Thanks also for the values - will save me some time.
Nectere, thanks for your advice, but I'm gonna give it a shot just changing the value and see what happens. If it doesn't work I will use the tub and shower the way they are. I hacked a bed once in Sims 1 (with pages of instructions) and that is the extent of my Sims creation. I'm afraid I depend heavily on people who know what they are doing and seem to enjoy doing it to create wonderful things for my Sims and their homes. I have no inclination to figure out how all those meshes and things work! ;D Now, would you like me to reconfigure your filing system, set up a database, or spreadsheet, or merged mailing, or create a newsletter/brochure/flyer? Those things I can do in a heartbeat. I can even sew you a wedding dress or crochet an afghan or a sweater. My talents just lie elsewhere and I have learned to accept it! |
