2021-03-03 14:06:58 +0000 UTC View PostThis mod uses the Séance Circle system of Paranormal Stuff to allow Mages to perform Magic Rituals. There are 3 new runes you can draw on the floor and use to cast some special spells.
The ability to draw the runes is unlocked with the Motes Vision perk, because you need Motes in your inventory to draw the run...

Thanks Maxis for not updating your stuff, took two minutes. Works like the others in the same category when you unlock the Manipulate Emotions.
Needs the Xml Injector
There are other things they didn't update (the Mastermind trait, Mermaids, the Insensitive trait.... the voodoo doll...)

2021-02-25 05:35:07 +0000 UTC View PostThe Astronaut career is one of those, maybe just the one, I never, never use. I tried it once and I was surprised by it, it was all nice until I arrived to the point of choosing a track. After seeing the tracks open, I had my sim quit the job and go into business (because, at the time, it was the only career that wasn't ridiculous). Since I'll b...

By Maxis Standards, Foxbury has a distinguished degree less than U-Brite. This means that Foxbury can have one degree more from me.

2021-02-16 22:45:19 +0000 UTC View PostI did this mod months ago to block the vendors from going about their businesses in the Realm, chat with people, grab a drink and do every fuck but their job... I never shared because I think the problem is mod related, doesn't happen with no mods, but I wasn't in the mood of 50/50... so I bombed the autonomy to tend the stall to 1000 in their b...
2021-02-15 03:02:02 +0000 UTC View PostGTW tunings are quite messy... so there is this loot that runs basically in every social interaction and gives the chance to discover if a sim is an Alien. There are two, in fact, one if the Alien is the actor, one if the Alien is the target. As far as I can tell, the first one is well tested, and the discovery happens only for undisguised alien...
2021-02-15 02:18:33 +0000 UTC View Post25 new pointless animation interactions put in game with the sole purpose of borking the autonomy and do nothing at all for gameplay
The mod was causing a problem with the summoning of the Goetia Daemon, 'cause I left in a filter that shouldn't have been there. Solved. If you've been having problems with the Daemons, this was probably the cause. Thanks to Heron for finding out.
So, before you go on reading this:

I gave up on the idea of ever being able to use NPCC again... so, this was requested. Now, read carefully:
This mod modifies the Magic Vendors in the Realm so the game doesn't pick your generic Market Stall Vendor that you can also find in other regions with the option of also removing the spectral look.
There are these interactions I never turned off the autonomy for with Scam, despite them being annoying, because there is a very logic reason for them to be pushed so aggressively, and the reason are: NPCs. These cannot be turned off without making the NPCs also ignore the toddlers in need, something problematic if you visit them at home or in c...

English only. This only overrides the STBL.
