A new mod by Outer's!

Outer's Mod Notes: Hi everyone!

This is my first mod on Mod The Sims, and I'm very happy to share it!

I decided to create this mod for me and anyone that might be interested to a fine tuning for a lot of aspects of the game. With ReFiner, when you click on a Sim, you have access to multiple features that are shown in images, like "Set Traits", "Set Needs", "Set Lifetime Wish", "Set Lifetime Rewards", "Set Skills", a utility for resetting Sims and canceling their current interaction, quickly activating Testing Cheats and so on, all polished with a table-style user experience, with toggles and dialogs. They integrate a UI refreshing that, depending on your FPS, might not show up correctly after you confirm your options. Just switch to another Sim and go back to the previous one to see that everything was applied correctly!

And this is just the surface!

With ReFiner you get a full 4 module mod, that, in Settings, also includes:

• "ReLover": a "complex but easy" module to allow open relationships and poliamory, in an advanced but non invasive way, with fine tunings for reputations, romance interactions and also celebrity scandals, and to allow the disabling of reputations completely, with easily revertable toggles.

• "ReCaller": a module to finely tune your experience with phone calls, allowing you to specifically choose which kind of phone calls your household Sims receive and do not receive, easily revertable as well.

• "ReHelper": a module to allow further tunings in game for things like Burglar events (house robberies), Pet Sounds (ESPECIALLY CATS), Sim autonomy for pet interactions (to avoid them obsessing towards pets, like usually happen with "have fun", "play with", "pet", etc.) meteors falling on Sims, and Paparazzi not showing up at home anymore

• "ReCleaner": basically a module that helps you identifying "dirty" or "broken" items that usually generate Dirty Surroundings moodlets and also disable the moodlets themselves completely (if you want). This mod allows to know what exactly is broken or dirty and needs your action to fix the moodlets.

These are all pure scripting modules that mainly patch parameters at runtime, so it's a mod designed to be very compatible with anything and pretty light (despite not in a 100% esteem, because it's impossible and will also depend on your PC), but the mod itself also integrates a Watchdog that informs the user when its "ON" toggles are being overwritten from other mods. It's an experimental feature, but in my testings it did its work. And you can of course disable it if it spams too much prompts in your experience, in "ReFiner > Settings > ReFiner" module.

Quick Summaries:

• "ReLover"

- Open Relationships: enable an advanced Short Term Context Mechanic where romantic actions are now accepted and liked (LTR+) in a conversation between multiple people, totally disables jealousy, accusations and emotional triggers and notifications of any kind that are related, including occasions like dates, groups, etc. and interactions on pie menus like "Confess Attraction" or "Confess Cheating" stuff

- Disable Reputations: literally disables any kind of reputation in game excluding faithful and ethernally faithful

- Disable Romantic Scandals: disables any of the scandals related to romantic interactions (cheating, woohooing in public, woohooing with an occult)

- Disable All Scandals: disables any kind of scandal related to Late Night mechanics

- Full Romance Interactions: enables in game every kind of possible romantic interaction, ever, always avaiable, when LTR is enough with your Sim's relationships, and Sims will also use all of the available interactions in their autonomy. This toggle allows you to use "Propose going steady" or "Propose marriage" with any Sim you want, therefore having also multiple marriages!! Apparently in a native way for TS3.

• "ReCaller"

- You have a toggle for specific kinds of calls you can disable (your cellphone will not ring at all)

• "ReHelper":

- Disable Burglar Events

- Disable Pet Obsession: with different options like BALANCED or ON, you can choose how much your Sims generally "obsess" with interactions towards Pets, that usually can bring their autonomy to constantly pet them during their time in the house

- Disable Pet Noises: similarly, this feature patches at runtime where the code "calls" the sounds, so in BALANCED or ON, Pets will produce less sounds or no sounds at all, especially cats

- Meteors are harmless: when meteors falls on the ground, they are unable to kill any of Sim or "smashing them", so they'll practically just get "dirty"

- No Paparazzi At Home: disables path finding to your house for Paparazzi, so they never come stalking you there, and they also get re-routed away if already present on your lot, "running home"

- Fix Firefighter Emergencies: a micro patch that should help the micro-lag that happens when the ring bells in firefighter emergencies

• "ReCleaner"

- Identify Dirty Items: you can now know which items produce dirty moodlets, specifically

- Disable Dirty Moodlets: disable the 3 dirty moodlets completely

- Attempt Plumbob Repair: if plumbob item over the head of your Sims gets buggy and seen as a dirty object (it can happen after you identify dirty objects) this feature will restore it to default. It's the reason why sometimes after cleaning everything, in my saves, the dirty moodlets were still appearing!

- Show score: for dirty items, in notifications you'll be able to see individual score for each item if you're curious about them

The fix itself (along with the thesis for those interested) can be found here:

So his experimental mod for TS2 RPC launcher basically tells the game to stop freaking out and turning stuff pink when shaders' memory usage goes over certain threshold. NOTE: it may get rid of the pink, but the game will still crash if you exceed 4GB limit.

There are two mod options to choose from:

Version 1 is more radical, it completely removes the safety check. You'll (probably) find out the shader's memory limit has been exceeded when your game crashes.

Version 2 is supposed to allow some pink soup at around 3.5 GB memory usage, near the danger zone, so you have time to act - so obviously, this one sounds more sensible.

Functional Butterfly (& Firefly) Habitat + Caterpillar Incubator

I fell in love with these 4t2 conversions by @tvickiesims at first sight and just had to make functional versions.

When your sim manages to catch butterflies or fireflies, they can be moved from the jar to this habitat. Insects housed in the habitat will stay alive; if the habitat is outdoors, they will hibernate if the temperature drops below freezing.

Each habitat can house 3 batches of butterflies and 3 batches of fireflies, counted separately. You can make space for new batches by releasing the insects from the habitat.

The caterpillar incubator provides an alternate way to get butterflies. Stocking the incubator costs §18, after which you can watch the caterpillars evolve into adult butterflies over the following days.

Be cautious about leaving adult butterflies in the incubator, as they won't survive there forever. The butterflies can be either moved to a habitat or released into the wild.

If an incubator is outdoors and the temperature drops below freezing, the metamorphosis will stop progressing, unless it's already finished, in which case the adult butterflies will die.

Sims can view occupied incubators and habitats, autonomously too. Cats might find them interesting as well. About everything gives nature enthusiasm, and all interactions are available children up.

🦋 Download (SFS) (alternate)

The files are compressed. Requires Pets and Seasons. The incubator won't work if you don't have the habitat in your downloads as well.

The habitat is a global mod that includes overrides for the bug jar and will conflict with other mods that alter the same resources. I haven't found anything that conflicts but as always, run HCDU to be sure. These can be used alongside Vickie's original conversions.

I'll make them available for download in the next few days!!

I've always hated how the camera jumps up and down when playing tall and slim buildings. Turns out, it's really easy to fix! It’ll take you less than a minute. All the details under the cut.
