Perhaps it's best as the PITA types may have driven Mike24 to pull his anims completely???

Perhaps it's best as the PITA types may have driven Mike24 to pull his anims completely??? Now how the heck did that happen??? (thinking) I went out and downloaded only the latest... for this list I extracted the actual XML files from inside the OKW files that I have installed. So... maybe I missed something. But, these are not the OKW package names. They are the actual XML names. Hey! Can't make it easy & give links to everything... gotta haze the new KW people just a little. Seriously, though, I should've made that clear. Edit: OK I looked again. I'm gonna have to blame Lucas and/or LL for this one. ? I mean, if the documentation isn't clear there's not really anyone else to blame but the person who wrote it. ?♂️ (I take the blame for whatever I write that's unclear, so I expect others to do the same.) But also some of it could be just the software LL uses (or how it's configured) for file downloads. Click on "download file" (singular) and get a list of 4 files (plural), one of which does not have any version information and has a different name. This from the "new" thread. Um... old files shouldn't be on the new thread, they should've stayed on the old thread. I downloaded them Feb 13th, so at the time they probably all had the same date. All those bloody colors and different fonts really are making it hard to read today, but, well, it still shows both names as being listed. Anyway, I'd extracted out the XMLs to do a full review and eliminate duplicates, but mostly to completely and utterly disable any and all unwanted crap that should've always been in a separate pack. Mike24 got it close to right by having 3 separate packs. Sure, the "single massive pack" makes it easy for the lazy, but I'd rather they split by content type and caused more work than the mess they have now. It's that mess that I'm intending to fix for my own game. I don't want to just "blacklist" animations inside KW or comment-out/remove the entries in the XML. I want the animation clips gone as well. Why waste the space & memory for crap I'll never ever use. I've probably already pissed off a few people, maybe a few animators, and a few mods, so I'm just gonna hit the delete key a bit & stop typing. 1

Abduction-induced pregnancies were shoved in, and since they were male-only, (probably) didn't take advantage of, or use, any existing code for pregnancies. Either that, or they just simply couldn't imagine why one earth anyone would ever want to have those disabled, so never tested it. (You'd be surprised how often tunnel-vision happens with developers, testers, and designers. We get into our own little worlds and rarely ever think that someone might not want something, or that it might cause concern. Here's a good story that illustrates both while also imparting computer history. https://ruthlessray.wordpress.com/2013/09/02/inventing-favicon-ico/ I forgot they invented that thing... but the 10pm normalcy is why I'm kinda glad they passed on me earlier that year... if they hadn't, would I have been allowed to create something that's now everywhere? The thoughts are making me sad.) Have you seen/tried this? https://modthesims.info/d/492913/less-more-frequent-male-pregnancy.html

Not sure exactly where or when, but Lucas did make that announcement, and it's on his page, although not stated clearly that they are the same. Check again, because what you posted looks like from the old page. New page is the one posted by landess and linked on my help page. No worries about editing xml's... you won't piss anyone off. Clydie and Lucas tell how to do it. ))) I think MaryJane has said how to edit them also. Everything is not for everyone. I like a strong 95% of the animations, and still edit out things that place males in feminine poses! OY! Others may want such, and it is there for them. I say the same about pets. I do not want, but others do.
Queen7577 Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Morning, Has anyone worked out why we can no longer sale drugs through the criminal hangout on the new build? I have been trying to work it out with no joy :-( Thanks

I have been trying to work it out with no joy ? Thanks Which 'new build' out of curiosity. As for 'selling' drugs - I had tried various things over time and because of my failure to implement a style of play which fit my needs I just gave up on it. Inconsistencies between the drugs, and how the game handles events between Sims, along with the need to go in and modify code if a player wants to incorporate drugs to be used with other mods like the 'produce selling table' (whatever it's called). It's a lot of 'work' for a feature which isn't the focus of game play. Sure it would be nice to have a flawless black market working inside the Sims 3 - open world/etc. I know others have more drive than I do concerning this feature and some have had success getting the game to bend to their will. If you use the search feature in just the SIMS 3 section for "drugs" and spend some time looking through the related posts, making search parameter changes as needed, I'm sure you can find written information which I allude to. 2
landess Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 7 hours ago, jdw6 said: Have you seen/tried this? Concerning Male pregnancy - Yeah, I figured as much just from how it's presented. It's easy enough to fix by simple Moodlet removal. In fact the entire Moodlet feature of the Sims 3 is quite the 'control' scheme for much of how the Sims 3 handles stuff. Sometimes other script affect their application, so simple removal doesn't work on ALL situations, but still - experimenting won't hurt anything. Plus for 'reasons', like anything KW related - not everyone has the same success or results in removing a moodlet. For some, they seem to instantly return, or don't affect what is shown on screen/in game. Regardless - just knowing the game can be easily manipulated with the use of moodlets, by removal or even 'adding' which can be viewed as shortcuts and cheats. Play the game how you want - we already add mods........
Queen7577 Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 I am currently using build 407, 409 kept freezing at the woohoo stage so went back to 407. The drugs use to work fine on build 399 (ONIKI_Medicines.package, 14 March 2018) but since the updated to 407 and ONIKI_Medicines.package, 24 March 2020, I can create the drugs but this time I can't sale them at the criminal hangout. I went back to ONIKI_Medicines.package, 14 March 2018 but still build 407, however, all the drugs disappeared.

Did you 'properly' deactivate KW, make a new save then exit the game and remove KW409, then start the game and make a new save? Then exit again and install and activate KW407? Undoing an upgrade is a task I don't envy as so much can be changed and will remain embedded within saves. Because upgrades will usually not change key words/etc. used to identify files - there is no reason for a program or application to deny access to those newer files - they must be removed completely. >>This is why I make save names with a build# preceding the original save filename for archival purposes. Example: I start playing Bridgeport. I name the save Bridgeport (original huh?) Then as I play using the 4 save rotation strategy they become Bridgeport 1, Bridgeport 2 - etc. IF I upgrade or add a mod which may have unknown effects (usually a script based mod - not a simple hairstyle) I add a prefix to the new save and begin rotating that name. So in the case of KW it would become 409Bridgeport. Now I continue to use the same thing as I play. 409Bridgeport 1/2/3/4 and on. If after playing for a CONSIDERABLE amount of time and feel comfortable with my experience, I can 'move the old saves' to a new folder named whatever I want for reference and the remove the KW build number from the save name series. I now have Bridgeport used as 'normal'. I can then change it again if needed as I add things to the game keeping the save files safe if anything goes sideways. Maybe I didn't find something I decided that using that build would affect? Now I can go back to the Archive and use those saves in the game which has had the mod 'downgraded' if you will and no residual scripts or objects would have ever been introduced to begin with - creating doubt whether that save was completely clean. Would I lose some game 'progress' by reverting to an older save - of course. Do I get to use a save in a world I have already invested time in knowing it's 'untouched' by an upgrade to a mod I use - of course. I'm only trying to explain how a player can protect their files and the time they invest into a series of saves. Things placed into the Library bin or CAS bin are independent of the save series. Depending on the depth of any problem when changing versions, there's always the possibility those sims/lots may have some residual remains, but since they must conform to the game as it presently stands, it won't be an issue for the most part (think 'replacing' objects like in downloaded lot's and the player doesn't have the CC installed).
Queen7577 Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Many thanks. I got build 409 to work but still cannot sale drugs like 'breaking bad' ?
Guest Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 @jdw6, I was told that the KinkyAnalustAnimations ARE different, and are NOT in the new KinkyLucasAnimations!!! Sorry. The analust animations don't have sound.

Yep, that is why I got annoyed and stopped playing the Household I made just for that and show a screenshot of above - Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. I could sell Simoiine (Heroin) but not Blue Sky (Meth) in game to the criminal hideout. I can't remember right now If I DID need Pinkman employed as a criminal to unlock the menu option to 'Sell' to the hideout. I was scrambling and testing a lot of things during that time - trying to create my own Breaking Bad save series. I even had placed a consignment shop nearby - and customized the register worker to look like and named 'Gus Fring', but couldn't sell Blue Sky on consignment either. <grrrrr> >>>>> Without getting too personal I noticed you used the term 'No Joy'. I first heard this in the military - and it was used by pilots when being asked to visually identify something, like traffic or 'calling the ball'. "Alpha Foxtrot one two three, traffic at two o'clock, five miles, angels ten over." "Alpha Foxtrot one two three, roger, no joy." 1
landess Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 When is a mod NOT a mod - or - For Whom the Bell Trolls...... As someone whom volunteered to share the Mike24 Pets animations thru PM's as a sign of respect to the original mod creator whom is still active and removed them publicly for his own reasons, my attention was drawn to this older post. I was both amused and appalled by it. Between the cringe English, abuse of the word 'and', the general context of the post placed in someone else's upload replies, and others things, such as number of posts/join date/date of last visit, I can only shake my head in wonder. There seems to be a certain amount of venom, shaming other members freedom of choice, etc. It's just a bad look IMO. Perhaps if the 'promise' was fulfilled instead of an idle 'threat' of mod creation with a new post and follow ups to said 'promise', I'd have a slightly different outlook on this. Perhaps it's <satire> ? Perhaps this 'mod', if ever released could be called 'Normal World', or 'Don't do that World', or 'What in the World are you Thinking?'..... <This is simply my own opinion, and is not a reflection of this site or any members using this site.

People like this seldom understand that some of us are able to entertain an idea without accepting it as truth or it being a real-life fact or act. Yes, I am able to play a game that includes actions that I find abhorrent in reality. Because I'm a grown-arse adult, and I can tell the difference between reality and a game *shrug*. There's always one; I was just on Facebook reading about a horror movie, and someone piped up in the comments about it being evil, and terrible for children. I'm sorry? Not everything is meant to be child-friendly. Adults are allowed to enjoy things that children shouldn't. Minor rant; I'm old, and people are just pissing me off lately, lol. 2 hours ago, LadySmoks said: PITA people...

classijenni Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 hi all! has anyone else had issues when trying to enroll a sim to college and choosing their dorm with this mod installed? any other time i could easily get my sim in a dorm and play, but i just tried enrolling a recent sim i made and when i get to the option to pick her dorm, the check mark doesn’t light up for me and take me to the dorm, is there a way to fix this or can I even put a sim in the university? thanks! ❤️
landess Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 I had enrolled a Sim in UNI recently to test something else entirely, and didn't have an issue in selecting a dorm, choosing a room, and making new friends and getting laid..... >>>Maybe someone else has had a problem, but they haven't posted it here if they did and/or managed to solve it. Try with another Sim in another save just for testing - no need to save if just testing....

Guest Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Wanted to throw a thank you to @namaradus for getting me to take a second look at transmogrifer. I had it a while ago, and hadn't seen a need for it, but it may have solve one of my KW peeves... Female sims constantly loading their inventories with panties from dressers when you aren't watching them! OY! I had gotten to the point where I removed every dresser from every house, vacation home and wherever my sims went, but... Dressers are now counter tops!!! Basically same height, and a woohoo target. ))) And my nicely decorated house still has what look like dressers in the bedrooms. ))) Face it, we all use shift click to take sims to CAS and not the dressers.
IDidn'tWantToSignUp Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Nvm. The actions work it just my sims 3 is slow as heck for some reason I believe it is the downloaded content and after I’m done posting this I’ll check it out and see as well as making a separate new game but keeping this, but do you guys know anything that can help with this slow lag? Even my motive bars are slow. Every time I actually play it the timer itself is slow and skips hours which makes every task corrupted and can’t be done by the sim. I’m in Bridgeport as well ( another problem that I’m aware because it’s a big town ) and I removed the subways anything that can cause lag in that town and I get the same results with a 1% change. I really don’t know how you guys play this so smoothly I’m jealous I also have the options of story progress and supers off.

There is another thread where the OP goes off on 'SIMS 3 sex mods' because his performance is shit when he uses them. Even made a video.... After watching the video and then looking up his computer, I realized he has the classic 'potato' experience. And also 'fell' into the EA ploy. With the Sims series, they aren't trying to be cutting edge as much as make the game run on as many machines as possible - increasing sales probability. If one had a PC that was say - just above minimum specs when the Sims 3 launched - well - one can see many threads where lag issues were met with ideas such as "don't run too many EP's at once" and a multitude of other strategies to make the most of the game. With the gaming rigs of today, beyond the inherent bad 'programming' there isn't much of an issue. Besides some tweaking, and use of utility programs either as mods, or outside save file cleaners - playing the Sims 3 has never been better. IF your system is up to it, then there is obviously another issue, and unfortunately it's at your end. Could be anything from failing hardware to computer viruses/malware or just an overloaded HD with real need to be defrag'd. The fact you used a 'phone' to make screenshots instead of even the simple Printscreen function and paste that to MS Paint (or equivalent) to create clear screenshots for evaluation has me curious as to your basic computer knowledge....... Not a slight, just an observation! Given this last suspicion - IF your HD is a SSD - DO NOT DEFRAG IT! Spoiler 1

I don't really use my laptop features even though I'm on it everyday so I use my phone to take screenshots? In the back of my head I'm thinking it is taking up space. I also am right now uninstalling my cc, because I realize I don't really need cc just hair, cars, gym tops, and underwear.

Don’t know why the video won’t upload. FullSizeRender.mov Don't click that link but this is the only way I can describe it like the clock is frozen even if I un pause it I know I have to have patience but normally the game would run smoothly by now since he's running and doing all this stuff and his motive bars when I start up the game is either empty and I can't tell if it is full or red also don't show the red arrows on the side until the clock skips forward like the whole world in-game is frozen or something while he's moving and then later the sky turns dark at 4:52 pm meanwhile he is still walking to the fridge from 3:09 pm task I selected. While he's also moving he stops in-between the action like he's lagging or something normally the only time he doesn't do this or the son in the family is when I don't even touch anything even if they have to go to work or school. The pets don't have the lag they just run smoothly the horse has a little lag but eventually walks normally after a few minutes. I don't remember it being like this before I played it but I'm just going to assume without anything in the game including Kinky it would run I believe I'll test that out.
