Yeah, I fucking know. I made it. And I spent quite some time working out the details tod etermine just how much harder the bills would make the game.
You guys are having an astoundingly difficult time understanding that I don't want grinding to take longer. I want grinding to take just as much time as it does now- but to be interrupted by motive issues. Like in. The sims. 1.
If you like TS1 so much, why not go back to it, forget TS3, and just leave this forum?
And wouldn't a pricing mod, that changes the prices of everything to make it larger, or the amount earned from everything lower, and then some mod to make bad moodlets worse, and Shimrod's 'No Elated' mod, all in combination, sortof do something like what you're ranting about?
Also, people made billing mods before you did, and probably did a better job, seeing as I've noticed a few complaints about your shifting TV mod crashing people's games, and I'm almost willing to bet your billing was as haphazard.

And if that's not enough, there's at least one mod that makes your balls larger.
The witch has been casting spells again?
Ha ha, anyway: I don't think it's the rate of decay that needs to be tampered with. The decay rates are perfect. It's the rate at which motives are filled that is the problem. I would like to see a starving sim have a light snack and stave off their starvation for a few hours without significantly filling the bar. I would not like to see my sims go to work with a full stomach and come home on the verge of death.
Claeric:
That's just the thing. THese solutions are just not doable. You show me a program that can batch edit objects, or open every object at once and let me click through and change them and save them all at once, and I'll gladly multiply the prices of everything in the game. But at present that would take an unbelievably ridiculous amount of time. It's just not plausible. I did it already to every single tree in the game- and it took me hours, thanks largely in part to how s3oc does not hold a cache and has to load all the objects every single time. Doing it to every object in general? It's not going to happen.
Unless somebody can come up with a magic multiplier that auto-spends twice as much money on everything or something. I asked Pescado to look into such a multiplier and he had no interest, unfortunately.
As for motives filling too fast, that is also EXACTLY the problem. The dumbest, most incompetent sim can fillt heir hunger in an instant. Cooking skill is abso-fucking-lutely worthless except for moodlets. Things like that. But nobody seems to know how to fix that. i've wanted to retool the way hunger works since the week the game came out but have no idea where to start. I'd love it if an apple only filled 5 hunger and meals filled more or less based on the moodlets they gave. But nobody has really looked into this to get something like that to happen.
Moryrie- "I've seen people take issue with one of your mods, therefore I assume based on how sandy my vagina is today that your billing mod probably sucked too." One person reported an issue- one. And I could not reproduce it. Nobody else experienced it. It was an issue on their end. The only other dissenting comments on the TV was yours where you cried that boohoo you did it first and to other TVs.
Anyway, whatever. It's my idea. I want to do it. I think I'll enjoy the game more if I can't spend the whole game day skilling with no interruptions. I just thought other people might agree and would have some input. Apparently the input is "Thanks for trying to make the game a little more difficult, but fuck you, you are retarded because I don't like that idea."
Moryrie:
That's people who reported it to YOU vole. I've had the issue reported twice to me. Perhaps because I actually maintain my mods, where it seems you do not.
As for it taking hours.. what project worth doing doesn't? Also, its easier to bypass s3oc entirely and do it with s3pe only. Especially since you seem to edit your OBJDs incorrectly anyway.
Claeric:
So...people are going to you to report issues with my mod because you made a similar one and they just happened to know this (but used mine instead despite yours doing more)?
Are you retarded or do you actually expect me to believe you?
