More Awesome Than You!

Hey guys

I might be, yet again, run the risk of making a fool of myself, because I'm not sure I downloaded this hack from MATY. I'm pretty sure I did, however, and I think it is a hack that was included in Pescado's OFB Director's cut.

What does this hack do? I've tried searching around, but couldn't find anything. Here is why I need to know:

*** POSSIBLE CONFLICT DETECTED ***
File Type: BHAV
Procedure Name: Set Social & Relationship Change
Group ID: 0x7F862133
Instance ID: 0x00001003
Packages Containing This Procedure:
\downloads\LBFBasic.package
\downloads\swindlerslist.package

Any ideas?

FEATURES:
Are your salespeoples' lists of unwanted friends getting unnecessarily large
and bloated from all the random people they meet on the job? Playable sims
performing sales actions will not gain +rel above ~35 unless they are
already friends, preventing them from acquiring a bazillion unwanted
often-townie friends.

From the FM.

I'm always amazed at how quick somebody is to lend a hand. And hey, even most of you use grammar, too.

What is the FS, though? I take it it's an acronym for one of the forum boards? I had a look, but didn't see anything that matches. Or did you mean FFS?

FM is the last two letters of "RTFM. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM)"

In addition, when you download the hacks separately, each one comes with a text file that gives a brief description of what it does.

Lots of the  hacks have their own threads, which give that information, as well..

For instance, there's this one: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,4671.0.html , which was the third result from searching "swindler," and the fourth for searching "swindlerslist"

That's strange, because I performed a search which was supposed to cover the whole of MATY's forums. Thanks, though. Now I can sort out my niggling hack conflicts.

I have no idea what this "LBF" is or why it would touch Soc/Rel for sales actions. It is clearly non-Awesome and should be removed.

It isn't something I have either.

Haha @ Pescado. Not an altogether unexpected response.

I figured out that it has to do with the sales interactions, as well. LBFBasic, Hard, Help, and Show. This hack prevents ANY kind of relationship-building between the business owners/employees and their clients. So no wonder there was a conflict with the swindlerslist hack. My, my.

Ah, see, this one does the same thing, but clamps the rel-growth such that it will not actually enfriendinate. So you choose to manually pursue this relationship, or ignore it. Basically, it gives you the benefits of good customer relations without the drag weight of incurring a bazillion friends you now have to maintain, or manually ignore and incur a bunch of unwanted "lost best friend" memories. Once again, the superiority of the MORE AWESOME way is made manifest!

Your awesomeness precedes you, Mr Pescado.

Apparently, your poolhack and crammyboy's nudist hack also conflict. I take it is because both feature the option to frolick around naked; in the pool, and everywhere else, respectively. I haven' t played with pools in ages, so I don't know if anything funky might happen.

Most Crammy-based components are badly outdated by now. It is recommended that you not use them, or make sure the pool hack loads last, as the pool hack already accounts for nakedness.
