#s2 mods

Know this mod by Phaenoh? So I remade it from scratch. The original one had issues; some careers didn't have numbers, and some levels were swapped (according to people). Now instead of "Lvl X" numbers are in brackets, which is more aesthetically pleasing to me. English only, incorporates this.

While I was at it, I renamed some of the careers to my liking. This is a separate mod with its own package file of course. English only, again.

(Athletic > Sport, Criminal > Crime, Culinary > Culinary Art, Slacker > Service, Artist > Art, Natural Scientist > Natural Science, Paranormal > Parapsychology, Security > Pet Security, Service > Pet Service, Show biz > Pet Show Business)

One thing I've heard and seen around the The Sims 2 Community for awhile now is the Soccer Goal from FreeTime and it's horrible needs drop! Before I tuned it, it took only 2 HOURS before a sim would stop because the energy would drop soooo fast! Not even the Need Benefits help that much, if not at all! Not only that, if a sim's fun was too low (-80 and below to be exact) they wouldn't play, even if the Soccer Goal is a fun activity for them and they will autonomously interact with it, they would quit! Decide what to do, damn it! So sims shouldn't get exhausted anymore and can finally play all day long! And, when bored, get out and play some soccer! Because your -80 or below Fun Need doesn't hinge you anymore! You're freeeeeee! Read down below if you're interested to TUNE IT yourself!

The Package file(s) is already compressorized.

Installation CHOOSE ONLY THE "Both In One" FOLDER OR THE "Seperated" FOLDER PACKAGE FILE(S) OR YOU WILL GET DUPLICATES! Unzip the file and then drop the Package file(s) into your Downloads folder in your Documents>EA Games>The Sims 2 OR The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection OR The Sims 2 Legacy folder, depending on your version of the game.

Conflicts/Containing Files Anything that edits the: BCON (Behavior Constant) - Name: tuning - play // Group: 0x7FC80134 // Instance (High): 0x00000000 // Instance: 0x00002002 and/or the: BHAV (Behavior Function) - Name: Play - Game - Alone // Group: 0x7FC80134 // Instance (High): 0x00000000 // Instance: 0x00002033 and/or the: BHAV (Behavior Function) - Name: Play - Game - Together // Group: 0x7FC80134 // Instance (High): 0x00000000 // Instance: 0x0000202B (NEW) Custom Standalone BHAV: - Name: Exit Object - Motive Failing?

I decided to seperate the Package file into each own Package file:("WolfTest_EP7SoccerNet_NoFunMotiveFail" "WolfTest_EP7SoccerNet_BetterNeedsTuning") just in case someone doesn't want both / both in one (WolfTest_EP7SoccerNet_BetterTuning)

Let me know if there's any issues :)

How to tune it yourself! Is the tuning too kind to you? Wanna tune it yourself? Check this out! Open the Package file in SimPE, then click on the Behavior Constant (BCON) // tuning - play

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!! DO NOT edit anything else what I haven't mentioned since I don't know what the other numbers do! Here you can see the tuning table! The only ones that I know works (and what they are) is: 0x1 (1): Fun Need Speed 0x4 (4): Hygiene Need Speed 0x6 (6): Energy Need Speed 0x13 (19): Fun Need's Limitation to stop the sim from continuing when the Fun Need is filled to 100 (originally) (I've set it to "9999" decimal, which means it never ends when the Fun Need is at 100(full)) The Needs doesn't switch (fill or empty a Needs Bar of your choice), it only tunes the speed of it, 0 and below (-) affects the Needs that goes down, faster or slower (same with Fun, but opposite, above 0)

I am finally back! I was away on vacation in the Dominican, enjoying my birthday 🎂 (happy birthday to meeee 🤭).

Sun City is on the up and up ☀️ A lot of my sims are perusing careers in entertainment and media. Cooking shows, music producers, talks shows. So I needed to overhaul how I play the journalism career to implement a bit of a talent management system.

In this video, I walk through the build of the studio, the mods that are essential for active careers to keep everyone busy, and how I play this style of work!

I hope you enjoy it! We will resume streaming Labadi now that I’m back, so feel free to join (turn your notifications on my channel to stay up to date with when I’m live) 🫶🏾

Alrighttttt I think that’s it! Have an awesome weekend friends!

Awhile ago I edited Lamare's 50 New LTWs and figured I'd share them.

This is for the M&G/UC version.

Tired of the many conflicts with ALfixes? Can't put up with Pescado hiding features in his mods? Then this might be of your interest.

ALfixes is something that has bothered me for a while, ever since I found out that it deletes date cards. No wonder I've barely seen them in game!

With Charity's incredibly helpful documentation on the topic, we now have a compiled list of mods to fully replace the few documented features that weren't already fixed by EAxis in Mansions & Gardens/later patches/Ultimate Collection. What you'll need to download is...

(List under the cut. Also stick around for my own extracted features, which I haven't found corresponding mods for.)

Easy Lot Check is a custom global that while not doing anything on its own, will be required for future mods, such as the upcoming laundry mod.

What it does is fairly simple: it checks whether an object with the GUID specified in the parameters is present on the current lot. If yes, it returns true, if not, it returns false.

  I was the searching the net for some more cc for personal use, and came across a whole sfs folder filled with cc for the Sims 2 [also a file in their that includes Sims 1 CC].

    The creator doesn’t seem to exist anymore. I searched tumblr only to find a url similar to them, but their posts have nothing to do with the Sims. I’ll post the folders here for now unless the creator shows up again.
