Re: Add and remove sentiments

Hi. I realize this is an old thread, however, I have the lifestyles box unchecked in my game, which is up to date even almost a year later, and that box does not change anything about sentiments. I just no longer get an notice that my daily lifestyle cap has been reached. Sentiments are still front and center. I have found no way to turn them off. I find them annoying. Example: I'm working on my painting aspiration using the museum easel. (Yes, yes I could cheat but choose not to) So I spend time working to get very inspired, start painting and my best friend comes in and walks up to me and all that goes out the window because the sentiment turned me playful. ANNOYING. Same situation but this time my boyfriend walk in and up to POOF! Flirty. Sentiments are annoying to me and DO NOT go away by unchecking "Lifestyles". Gladly take any other suggestion on how to turn them off. I do not run MODS so the game is as is. Thanks.

    @Turlovian I've noticed the smitten sentiment is a pain as everytime the smitten sims are near each other they're flirty and couldn't care less about their babies or anything else they're doing! They go to talk to plants when they're flirty, unless I force them to woohoo! It just seems nothing can get done beause of the sentiments as their little simmie brains are not focused on the task at hand. I want to raise my kids well, but these distractions are making it harder than it already was!

    @Turlovian Hi!  I absolutely despise sentiments!  If you don't mind using cheats, then you can use the cheat to add/remove sentiments in the spoiler below.  Just type Control+Shift+C to get the command prompt in the upper left.  Then copy and paste the cheat into that prompt and hit enter.  I actually got these from @Gednaa a while ago when they shared them in another thread.  I saved this list to a text document to make it easy to copy/paste.  Hope this helps.

    Spoiler

    For this string, the initial first/last name is the name of the sim who has the sentiment, the first/last name 2 is the target of the sentiment.  For example, John Smith is smitten with Jane Smith.  To remove the smitten sentiment, the cheat would look like this...

    modifyrelationship John Smith Jane Smith -100 sentimentTrack_Enamored_ST_generic

    modifyrelationship firstname lastname firstname2 lastname2 100 (Sentiment Tag)
    if you want to take away a sentiment put -100 instead of 100

    Edit: Sorry.  I missed the part where you said you don't like to use cheats.  However, in my opinion, it is totally justified where sentiments are concerned.  It just ruins so many situations! lol

    Another thing that I find a bit creepy is kids getting the "impressive person alert" towards their father.  I guess the Father must have been mentoring them with something while I was at another household, but it's kinda creepy.  Of course a child is impressed at their parents' skills and mentoring, but is this really necessary and does it need to look so creepy in the game?

    ...and to add, it's not good when a child is impressed by one parent and has no sentiment toward the other. (except for deeply connected as I made her best friends with both parents.). It's that surprised face moodlet that pops up that makes me shudder!
