Title: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: baaaflatfit on 2006 March 30, 23:09:51 Can someone tell me if there have been any OFB-compatible hacks made for these:
1) blocking ALL bubble baths for every Sim forever? Gawd, they annoy me -- as if a Sim gets any cleaner by taking one! Grrr.. 2) blocking every/ANY kind of kickybag crap, regardless of place? I'm so sick of having to unblock those damned things! 3) blocking all Punch-You-Punch-Me, or at the very least, having Sims substitute a game of Red Hands instead? Very little fun gets generated by the punching, and it goes on and on forever. Arghghgh! Thanks for any help! :) Max Title: Re: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: Berg on 2006 March 30, 23:21:24 Monique at MTS2 has made many "no autonomous..." hacks: I use the "No kickybag" . Look here (http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=127110):

I got sick and tired of making no-autonomy this-and-thats when it became clear that disabling one stupidity simply caused them to perform a new one! Title: Re: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: Ancient Sim on 2006 March 31, 00:21:54 I have to say that I cannot understand anyone playing with freewill off. Where are the surprises in your game? Do you ever wet yourself laughing at the stuff that happens? I have been in tears more than once at some of the hilarious goings-on in my game, none of which would have occurred if I'd been micro-managing their every move.

Where are the surprises in your game? Usually, on community lots, where I don't have to deal with it wasting my time. The fact of the matter is that even if I did bother to leave it on, my sims would never be released from their Power Idle lock anyway, since otherwise they wouldn't do their business properly, and by properly, I mean NOW. Free Will has a MINIMUM granularity of about 15 minutes or so before a sim will even consider doing something, and that is just not acceptable. MOVE! MOVE! MOVE!Do you ever wet yourself laughing at the stuff that happens? No, but apparently I have better bladder control than you.I have been in tears more than once at some of the hilarious goings-on in my game, none of which would have occurred if I'd been micro-managing their every move. As far as I can tell, they end up always either doing the wrong thing, or not doing anything at all. Then they're not in good shape and just bitch and moan at me when I tell them it's time to do something useful. Which, in any case, is right now./me crack whip.

I'll check out Monique and Squinge, thanks! Like Ancient Sim, I really do prefer to leave FreeWill on -- even if I have to end up blocking or re-directing their stupid choices most of the time :lol Max Title: Re: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: DrBeast on 2006 March 31, 14:41:47 What's Free Will? :P
Ooooh! I get it! The Evil EA has Will Wright locked up in a dungeon and we have to free him...? Ok, seriously, I couldn't play the game with free will on for more than 5 minutes. I admire you people who play with free will, you must have nerves or steel. Or you're followers of *mind blank follows* Ilmater!

Title: Re: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: MissDoh on 2006 April 01, 21:39:51 TJ's also have no autonomous hacks here. Did you all forget about his. :P
Squinge has at least 15 mods of this type if TJ's do not have it, Squinge does. He also have other nice things. Look for is mods at the insimenator sites since some of his mods are exclusively on that site. EDIT: Here is a direct link to Squinge's mods but you will need to become a member to download anything, it is free so no worries: http://www.insimenator.net/forumdisplay.php?f=152 Title: Re: Looking for hacks to prevent these annoying behaviours Post by: MissDoh on 2006 April 01, 21:43:50 I am one of those that cannot live without having my Sims at free will on.
It is not that hard to control and it is a game after all, not a military school :P * Hides her whip * |
