Does anyone happen to have the original sims2pack files given out for the sims 3 hoodie and t-shirt with apartment life? I know there's unpacked ones (and modified) available, but I've been pulling my hair out looking for the original for my archive.

Hi I'm here just to say hello and do what I do best... Necromancy 

Nice to moreawesomethanyou still running 

I believe RomanceMod made them do precisely that, since I seem to recall specifically writing that. However, if you've been picking them shitty partners with which they have poor relationships...

Yes, I have already been using romancemod, but it's mainly the Family sims I have trouble with.  Sims with other aspirations still get upset when a sim they're in love with woohoos another sim while they're on the lot, but at least it doesn't cause them to become furious and torpedo their relationship.  I guess I'll just have to make sure none of the sims from the latest generations have the Family aspiration.  Then at least I won't have to watch over non-playables like a hawk, to keep them from destroying marriages.

I just don't understand why EAxis would make an aspiration for Family, and then NOT have such sims be able to autonomously refuse romantic interactions from other sims that are not their spouse.

RomanceMod ought to resolve most of your weirder flirting behaviors, assuming you have nothing else installed that influences flirting and romance. Sims should behave much more appropriately with that on, as your annoyance list seems to parallel mine.

Yes, necromancy is bad, mmkay.  Unfortunately, after several hours of searching, all I can find is the exact opposite of what I'm looking for.  I suppose that's one of the problems of still playing The Sims 2 in 2020.

Does anyone know if there is a mod/hack/whatever that prevents sims from autonomously flirting/accepting flirts?  I am so sick of going to a community lot and having my married sims "admire" or "Be admired" just as their spouse walks onto the lot.  Even worse is when happily married *Family* sims let some random townie or playable flirt with them while their spouse is on the lot.  I've had to disable visitors on my residential lots, and watch like a hawk on community lots so I can make everybody selectable as they arrive and set them to "Macro/Dig for Stuff." (Power Idling doesn't seem to stop them from interacting, sometimes)

At least as bad is Uni lots where the stupid cow mascots run into the house before I can stop them and start flirting with my sims.  While it's amusing sometimes to take control of said mascot and make them sit in the snow in their underwear while they go into aspiration failure, I just want a little sanity in my game -- and everybody being horndogs all the time is NOT sane.

BTDubs, I do not have ACR.  I've been R'ingTFM, and the only autonomous behaviors that can be turned off are the ones ACR itself initiates.

well that's by choice usually. revival can only be done by genie lamp and resurrect-o-nomitron and i don't usually use those things and i also don't usually have sim favorites that i care enough about to bring them back from the grave since i play generation style and in rotations switch to 100-baby challenge and murder challenge or something. its just so strange about the 3 loves memories appearing for widowed sims (when it literally is about cheating exclusively) and the sudden "bffs with dead ex wife" thing   

Sims do have this tendency to come back to life, so...eh.

it's not good. it's ... okay. it looks EXACTLY like the new Star Wars area at Disney Land, so I feel like I'm at DL. It's listed as a "vacation" destination, but you can't edit anything and everything is a rabbit hole, even the only place to sleep. The game play feels... lazy. Very frustrated with is, and it broke all the custom windows and doors.

I haven't bought Star Wars, despite being a completist with regard to packs. I don't intend to buy it, as it looks bad. Opinions?

To me, it looks so bad, it makes me think maybe they're running out of ideas. As of this writing, it looks like there are 9 expansion packs, 9 game packs, and 17 stuff packs -- for a total of 35. Could it be that Sims 5 is not far beyond the horizon?
