Raising the game's difficulty level (read the 1st post and vote, pls)

<< < (3/8) > >>

linolino:
YAY!!! very good, thats exactly the opposite of what i want!

Actually, it's part of it. I want to accelerate the aspiration decay rate,

also, raise the aspiration prices of th rewards

and last but not least, i want to raise the maximum points the aspiration metter can hold, and change the percentage of total points needed for each color level in it.

I mean, 35% of metter bar for platinum level is just lame!

J. M. Pescado:
Another thing to note is that aspiration level does not decay when your sim is off-world (work, school, abducted by aliens, etc.) either. Meaning if you are at work for 4-6 hours, no decay then, either.

Also, decay occurs only at the top of the hour. If your sim catnaps about 10 minutes before, then wakes up after the tick, he will miss the decay.

linolino:
wow!!! lammer than i thought! Ok, so then i'll just see the time the decay occurs and put my sim to nap 10 mins before...

no no no, thats just ridiculous. It should decay while sleeping and also when offworld...

The way it is now, that LTW reward of getting platinum mood forever is just good for nothing!...

Do you know if these changes are possible J.M. ?

1 - Accelerate the aspiration decay rate
2 - Raise the aspiration prices of the rewards
3 - Raise the maximum points the aspiration metter can hold
4 - Change the percentage of total points needed for each Aspiration level
5 - Enable Aspiration decay while sleeping and while offworld

laracon:
Linolino, have a look in the wants folder. One of the the files there holds the individual points for each want/fear and another holds the aspiration levels for each age group. They are both .xml files which JM informed me cannot be altered by placing in the download folder but it may be possible to change and save if you really want to do that.

If aspiration decay could occur at all times, that would certainly make the game more difficult and could be enough to satisfy your need. On that point, I'd bow to JM's superior knowledge 

linolino:
oh thank you laracon. i might just go and check the wants folder. actually, there are only 3 .package files there, so i might have to open them with SimPe and extract the xml right?

Wants.package
WantTree.package
WantTuning.package

Also tehre a wants folder in the The Sims folder and one in the University folder... wich one should i use? probably  uni right?
