I knew Clydie would do it for you! I know you will enjoy playing even more now. )))

Play Sims3 and watch what they are doing or not.

I also just watch them sometimes. It can be interesting, or frustrating... especially when they stand there and complain they are hungry while standing in the kitchen, or pee on themselves! OY!!!

Quite a few of those MTS tuning mods I mentioned are for just this reason - to stop them from a complaining animation and 'stand there and take it', or move on.

I have a few mods that help, but do not eliminate it completely. Another thing that twists my panties is when every sim autonomously gets horny, wants to woohoo, and all stand around the same bed in a 6 bedroom house!!!!

As you may saw, it is not simply a translation of the original wording. What I am trying to do is a interpretation according to the in game situation, very similar to the original EA game wordings. Trying to implement funny wordings and try to avoid crude wording. Believe me, spend many many hours on that and still change wordings to better fit with the in game situation. Really I think it is a complete different game experience during game play, especially you take the time and read the upcoming  messages. For me much more fun in the game.

But more, I immediately add untranslated messages as they were catched up by  the localization file what you can find besides the Log and Error files in the sims3 directory. Meanwhile I implemented more than 500 of those, what mean that they form far more than a third of all strings of the original mod. That's a lot and finally enrich KW enormously. Tried to to offer this to Oniki, but no chance at all. It would be easier to reach the pope in Rome or the American president, as we used to say ?

I think is is more or less the "normal" routing issue caused by the EA game engine. What irritates me more is, that once some decided to go for whoohoo, they sometimes go through the house from basement to first floor passing by the nicest beds, couches a.s.o and finally do their thing somewhere on a open door on the door frame. Very comfortable door frames they must have in the Sims world ?

And so they just stand there and tap their foot on the ground! 

 

Yes, my sims also go from basement, up 2 or 3 sets of stairs to a spare toilet to woohoo and pass by comfy beds... Then 2 more sims decide to woohoo on the same toilet!!! And it's the dirty toilet that the maid did not clean!!!!!!!!! ))))

Without knowing how to read code, and not sure any real difference could be made anyways, Sims 3 pathing must follow some rules based on lot values which get more complicated as multiple floors and objects to interact with/block pathing are added. While I've looked at realistic floor plans of homes created for the Sims 3 and appreciated the architecture involved, I also know they look like a pathing disaster waiting to happen.

 

I tend to make very spacious rooms with plenty of routes. The problem occurs with 'choke-points' and in the case of KW, too many sims trying to use the same item BEFORE it is occupied. Once occupied, they will ignore any item which would be 'grayed-out' to the player, so KW works, but it is an issue with the base game itself and how the action queues work. We've discussed the flaws in the queue system before, yet understanding the item selection mechanics when a script activates would be a great help.

 

This is why my 'custom' homes and even modifications to default structures usually seem simplified instead of realistic. Spiral/single width staircases create natural chokepoints and are a bad choice when located in a 'high-density' location for Sims. While some mods alleviate this (elevator/school entrances/etc.) the game still uses some queue hierarchy which is less than optimal.

 

With a high privacy setting (exhibition based with setting of 7+) coitus interruptus happens frequently, or has the Sims saying 'we can't do this here' or such. Then they go somewhere else and I find this helps keep from woohoo 'stacking' on specific objects should above mentioned situations occur.

 

There is no optimal, only trial and error when placing furnishings, locating door placement, etc. I'm still amazed the Sims actually works for the most part, and adding KW just makes it more amazing. Instead of making fun of the retarded kid, I just try to keep it from hurting itself.....

 

 

>>>>>While KW recommends turning off NRaas Overwatch 'stuck check', I experimented with leaving it on. I just learned to ignore the notification pop-ups, as Sims being 'fixed' by overwatch is preferable to them standing around in a 'stuck' situation because of the EA queue/pathing problems it was designed to fix.

Think so too !

I take it from the funny side and problems which may occur wake my ambition to find a solution of some sort.

And this for years now. No other game before was able to do that to me and I play games on computers since Larry 1.

OmG, I must be old like methuselah.....

Sims 3 pathing must follow some rules

My husband says they look like they choose the path the crow flies from point A to B, but as they can't fly end up walking in the most bizaare paths. Although on more than one occassion, I have directed a sim to do something, go somewhere or talk to someone and with no thought bubble or anything in the routing panel, the sim will go sit in the hot tub!!!!!! I just watch them.

 

Most EA homes seem to have double staircases to help avoid congestion, but yes, I have spirals to save room in a few houses and they can become a mess,and elevators can be the worst!

Sims 3 would have died a long time ago if people outside of EA did not fix the messes! Can anyone think of just one patch from EA that actually fixed a problem or made the game better?

 

And thankfully so many script modders kept updating their fixes after the next patch made them not work. I love Sims 4... although I do not have it, because now EA has a SHINY new game to continually screw up and has left Sims 3 alone!!!

 

Well, sorry about the KW strapon replacement. After the initial one that looked promising, I've run into to many problems with trying to make it look good all of the time. ) Even though it has no morphs and only 2 bones (no pun intended, but...) something pulls (again, no pun intended) on certain vertices and distorts it. )))))

 

My female dominatrix set is almost ready, however! And I think that I have FINALLY found the right tutorials to start making semi-sheer lingerie!

Spoiler

Of course, it's open bottom and semi transparent from both sides! Working on better texture and shading, and getting just the right amount of sheerness... although I imagine as long as nips and v are visible, almost not there at all would be a big attraction on LL!!! OY!

For anyone seeing this problem - it's an easy fix but drove me up the wall the first time I saw it.... Seems to happen when sims are saved to the CAS bin while wearing KW undies and there is some mod change which loses the undies ID. Just remove the undies and the skin changes back to normal.

Hmmm... I never had that problem. Mostly, I use the undies that I made, but have saved sims while wearing the KW lace panties. Or is that from the bras?

@Landess & Clydie :

haha,You thought,that you are old,because you played Leisure Suit Larry . My first VideoGame was Pong ,or Space Invaders.So I must be much older than you Guys.

 

@Lady Smoke: I know what you mean,Lean back and watch the Sims.Sometimes its funnier than watch a Sitcom.I had a Sim a while ago,who always wanted to windsurfing in the Ocean.Its a bad Idea to go into the Ocean,when you cannot swim  .

I think it's a small problem with having Kinky World that it eventually takes over all the motivations of sims, and all they want to do is woohoo. My current family's son always plays chess autonomously, but I am sure he will become a horny monster when he ages up. (

Hmmm... I have bluegenjutsu's mod for "fixing" that annoyance of foot tapping. Not sure if it's still (or ever did) work, some things I've just started not noticing. "-- How often does the train go by? -- So often you don't even notice it." ?‍♂️   (I'd add a link, but MS wants to reboot my pc for some update... smh)  I'll have to check this one & see what (if any) differences there are.

From what I've seen in the tuning files, it kinda looks as if they use a distance calc that ignores floors (so if you're standing directly below a bed, and the routing needs a bed, but the stairs are on the other side of the building, they'll walk way to the other end and up the stairs (which might pass other beds over on that side of the building). I don't know for a fact that is how it works, but it certainly does seem as if that's the case from noticing things during game play.  I also suspect they're using things like those hidden values all objects have that determine how much they add (or detract) to a room's.... gah can't think of the word... comfort? no. appearance? closer... appeal? meh... something.

I believe it's because of the auto resetin Overwatch creating false resets during some KW activities, and problems with the open high schools.

Or have a pool for your household if someone has the "unlucky" trait... and can't swim.  Which is why I try to (as quickly as possible) get someone gathering seeds by the graveyards & plant 'em and hope like heck one of 'em is a death plant... My last game, I had all members of the household have at least one death flower, the main sims 2 or 3.  Sims are like little babies, can't leave 'em alone for 5 minutes w/o them getting into some sort of issue.

This was b/c I updated Visual Studio... ? and, well, MS keeping that horribly idiotic decision to allow file locks, which is (exaggerating slightly) 99.9% of why reboots are needed. Naturally it works completely different on my desktop than it does on my laptop overgrown ultrabook.

Spoiler

It thinks it's supposed to be fast, because of the i7 processor, but noooooope. It's been throttled to give nearly sci-fi-like battery life. lol For the curious, it's one of these things: https://www.lg.com/us/laptops/lg-14Z990-RAAS7U1-ultra-slim-laptop

Issue I keep having on this desktop, is something is stealing focus... seems to be every hour about 40-after, but no tasks scheduled for then, and doesn't seem to affect TS3 if I'm playing. Just other things... like a browser, and always when typing. ? Too bad they've basically taken away the ability to tune how the OS works.

Oh, right. The damn h/s. I wonder if she regrets creating that yet or not.
In 375, was there an option for letting KW update clothing? I know that was added at some point, just lost track of when.  But I think that the clothing changes was reason for one of the auto-reset issues. Maybe from uniforms? (guessing)

And, speaking of uniforms. My whore seemed to change into her "whore uniform" only the initial time, but mid-way thru the 1st 'woohoo' session winds up wearing the 'everyday' outfit, which I force changing to nude ("get naked" is the option, I think that came outta some other mod), and when she finishes w/ client # 1, she changes into street clothes... either 'everyday' or 'formal' depending on location.

Had this problem too some days ago and it took me a while to find out that the undies caused that.

Besides the two of LadySmoks I have 10 undies installed (Marcos_EdsonOKW - do not remember from where an when I got them, may be even from here at LL). Think one of those caused that, because later I tried to modify a bra (Buestenhebev1.1.package) to be able to add this into KW. Was sucesful so far but also this collided badly with Marcos undies and caused to mess up the sims.

To bad since I do have only 2 bras what can be registered in KW. May be I should remove Marcos stuff and give the bra a second try....

The problem I have with that, Marcos stuff is meanwhile in a merged file which I have to re-setup first without them.

    Yes! This is why I got KW in the first place, and continue to try to get the game to 'play itself' as much as possible, so 'god' doesn't have to do as much..... Another reason why I leave the thought bubbles on and many screenshots actually say more when one looks closer and 'reads into' the scene. One Sim is talking politics, and the other is thinking comics was one of my favorites along with one of the Riddler showing his junk to Harley Quinn, and thinking 'how hard he is'.

     I'm sure it still applies, since the 'stuck-check' likely has some form of timer/etc. On some of my larger worlds which take a while to load, occasionally when sims want to woohoo, they end up just standing near the object for a REALLY LONG TIME before they get busy. I mean like over an hour! Overwatch would probably break that shit up and this is what OnikiKay was likely referring to.

    Try unplugging the internet and see if it happens. I have my suspicions that MicroSoft and Google are working together closely as of late and while they can gather certain info at anytime, it's more efficient to send it in a single daily package instead of waiting for a player to 'silently' send it by logging into a game/etc.

 

7 hours ago, jdw6 said:

    Just like the school uniform, with V.375 I won't use them anymore since there's no way to 'reset' them. Even NRaas let's a player delete many outfits created by the Sims which will be recreated if needed. Like Martial Arts/Beekeepers/Singed/etc. The reason is things like Hair are fixed to these KW outfits and aren't affected by changes after creation. As a CAS whore, this is unacceptable to me.

     Yes, this is one reason I have many merged packages. After my first 'uber' merge and seeing the problems that has caused, I now merge 'trusted' creators together in their 'own' merged package, and leave the odd ones dangling until after a year or so I know that I'll keep them, and then create a merge of 'miscellaneous' packages. That was the 2 year Los Aniegos cleanup I mentioned in some earlier screenshots.

 

Obligatory screenshot.

That is another problem I have with KW to be honest. It always adds underwear to everything. A bra on a backless evening gown? Also, I constantly get error messages on age ups... "There was a problem during age up... It's not Kinky World's fault..." I have 375, but don't see where to turn KW off from age ups or dressing my sims.

Here, probably: 

I have them, but keep forgetting to re-register with them as I muck around trying different KW versions, so basically gave up and only use the ones in KW. I don't recall ever seeing that skin issue, but I've not used those thongs much, even though I look at them in CAS and think "I really should use or remove them" when I'm in CAS, but forget as soon as I'm out of it.

Oh! Good point. I had just found and was gonna start using a mod to remove those. Re-thinking that now, since I do use them for much the same reasons you mentioned.

Good idea!  I had to give up on my initial merges, because I learned that some of the world retextures (to "improve" how things looked) were actually to blame for the shittiness I was seeing in Twinbrook. And just removing those from the huge merge proved more tricky than I expected, so I'm starting over.  (Maybe I'll get back to actually "playing" before April ?)

Looks like it'll do that if age-up happens after a travel request, if "check for privacy" gives "false", possibly if a timeout happens while trying to exit some interaction during age-up, and a whole boatload more checks ? I'm shocked by how much is in there. some about schools, some about teen vampires, some about just about everything else. FWIW, it looks like that's one area that had a lot of cleanup between 375 & 399.

I've started being more "careful" (restricted) in what clothing options I choose for sims as a result of how bad it looks to have either that situation or "two bras" for those sheer tops that have a "bra" so they're "other site friendly" (or whatever the reasons).

Sounds like how it was in eastern KY back in the 40s... or, well, stories I've heard of that time. But, hey, a stick can be pretty entertaining. lol Occupied many hours w/ a stick & a stream, watching how the water flowed. Hmmm... that's something EA should've added (rivers & watching things float down them), but it seemed as if they really regretted releasing "Generations" and adding children (in general). Oh well.

Probably, I can't think of it now. I'm pretty sure I found one that tried to increase the likelihood that they'd eat leftovers when hungry, but I don't think I've found a way to specifically tie it in to "eat when hunger is 30%". I was more trying to get them to prefer leftovers to new meals (mine like to go cook something when hungry then leave it sitting on the counter instead of eating the darn thing).

It might've been this one:  http://modthesims.info/d/386354/eat-amp-put-away-your-leftovers.html  but I'm not really sure.
