"Wannabe" MOODLETS in the SIMS 2 Originally by HB and MidgetheTree!!
This is my version/edit of Midgethetree's Mood Mod-Compatible Version of Hexagonal Bipyramid's "Wannabe Moodlets" for the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection!
This mod simulates moodlets from Sims 3 and Sims 4 based on a Sim's surroundings and their 3t2 traits!
You can read more on HB's original post but this mod basically gives some logic to your Sim's current mood based on who they are. It is a fantastic traits mod that encompasses many iconic traits.
Grumpy Sims have a mood hit all the time. Loners have a mood increase from being alone. Hates the Outdoors and Loves the Outdoors have obvious effects. Dislikes Children will have a mood decrease from being around children. Loves the Heat and Loves the Cold have mood shifts based on temperature. Over-Emotional have wilder mood shifts overall. Finally, Night Owls have mood increases from nighttime.
I have taken it a bit farther and added "Neurotic" to the "Grumpy" effect. So Neurotic Sims will also suffer in their Mood a bit and it will take higher needs to make them happier.
To do this, I simply added a check for the Neurotic trait in this resource and coded it the same way as the Grumpy trait.
Update Mood Boost and Moodlets to Sim Instance: 0x1002
My second feature is for the Sims 3 Pets traits "Cat Person" and "Dog Person".
To do this, I created two new resources, changed their group number to 0xFFFFFFFF and gave them two new instance numbers following HB's original Instances.
Get in Temp O - Dog Person Mood Boost of SO
Get in Temp O - Cat Person Mood Boost of SO
It's literally the same code as "Get in Temp0 - Dislikes Children Mood Boost of SO" which is code for checking to make sure that the Sim who dislikes children is actually physically close to a Sim child.
These new resources just check if a Sim is close in proximity to a dog or a cat!
Then the Sim gets a Mood Boost!
To tune the Mood Boost, you can go into the BCON 0x1001 Mood Change From Traits
You can change any of the mood boosts by changing the value in the "Dec" field at the upper left.
I changed the Animal Lover boost to +15 even though it says differently in the picture so it's the same as the Loves the Outdoors boost.
Have fun with more variable moods! Happy Simming!!!!
This mod is a custom controller object. Since it is MidgetheTree's version, which includes features from Simler90's Mood Mod I highly recommend getting that mod and have my mod load last. As Midge explains in their post Midge did not include one nice feature from Simler90's Mood Mod, which is a Sim's mood being recalculated every hour - this also simulates moodlets!!! —Does not work with “Memory” version of Mood Mod.
Make sure to remove HB/Midge's Mod if you want my version.
