Hidden Traits

I just noticed there isn't one for the favourite drink. Yet if you order their favourite, they get the same thing each time.

I'm one of those who think the humans don't "become" straight or gay/lesbian or bi, just the humans don't choose it.
The humans can only accept or not who they are.

But this discussion is another topic.

Irrelevant really since it's a game which the slogan reads "you rule". By that logic, sims shouldn't be picking their orientation, they should be blank canvases mold-able by me, the player.

YES, sims are what we make them. Don't compare to real people, living in your neighborhood!

So there is a gender preference? :o I thought there wasn't... can we also alter this with the mod? :#

here is the mod I use for that. you just click on them and in the little menus there is Gender Pref. You can set it in percents or just to just one gender fully.


on the Modthesims site search Gender Preference Set by azoresman . sorry it says I can't post links ><

Do they have gender preference in the vanilla game, or is it added my MCCC?

It's in Vanilla game :)

That's cool. :)

Not to me. Kind of goes against the tagline "you rule".

All sims are bissexuals by default, you change this via romantic interactions...

Did you not just see the post above where the child had already decided he was gay?

That's achieved with mods, it's not possible in a vanilla game

I think the visited Sylvan Glade trait it means your sim gets the option of clicking on the tree and traveling directly to Sylvan Glade without having to do the follow the prompt puzzle. The fifty mile high trait may trigger the player achievement (cuz it doesn't do anything else!), the experimental food trait must let them cook the food at home.

The favorite movie trait appears only after they watch a movie and declare their favorite movie type. After that they enjoy that type of movie more than other movies.

And I found a new trait. Is Adoptable. I have no idea what that does.

"Is adoptable" is probably for the sims that are spawned when you open the adoption selection screen on the computer. They probably remain adoptable by any household until they age up past adoption age. New ones are probably spawned as needed.

I just realised this could be useful.

If you want to give a sim child or baby up for adoption, maybe you can give them that trait and adopt them via another household? Someone should test it :o

@EmmaVane I'd love to know if that works... If so it could be useful for putting alien babies and kids into the "adoption pool" too as the ones spawned by the game are always regular human sims

Whatever mod you're talking about, I don't have. MC doesn't DO anything with gender prefs. I don't have azoresman's genderpref set mod, either.

AFAIK they're coming into my game with those settings already fixed, I'm assuming by the bin. MC will affect their Appearance (based on player settings), but it really doesn't do anything "under the hood" during roll-up.

I would *love* for a vanilla player to do an experiment, and install the Show Sim Info mod for long enough to look at your sims. I'd be very interested in knowing how the prefs stats play out in an unmodded game. Any volunteers?

(There is a pie now showing in my original picture of the boy's info. Why/HOW does TinyPic DO that??? :D )

Maybe I said that badly. I've not played much in a couple of days. But I did see a few of the numbers had went up/down on some sims, depending on who they've been romantic with (which gender, I mean). So maybe I should've said he's already decided he WANTS to be gay... but, it isn't set in stone at all.

I do stand by it NOT being a mod doing it... or if it is, I have no idea which it would be. I'm absolutely positive it isn't coming from MC, and that's my biggest mod. Everything else I have, and there are Not Many, is a very specific type mod that does one thing. Nothing with genders at all.

Haha. "Taking one for the team". :s Where can I flag them as bi or gay in MCC? I am definitely gonna do that from now on. Btw: you can alo set the settings to same gender couples more likely to adopt a child.
In my rotational save I am currently wondering how to get Dina Caliente and her girlfriend pregnant. Her gf has a twin brother so maybe she could take one for the team as well..., this could stir a lot of drama... >:)

If you have sim menus enabled, it's under Sims > MC > Flags. If you don't, and you have version 2.16 installed, try typing mccc jane doe into the cheat bar, that's supposed to give you those options. New toy. :)

Installed into unmodded fresh game. CAS for this purpose, set her on lot and then sent her to the coffee house to start looking at sim stats.

Play time was long enough to do the above.

All sims except married sims were 0/0 for preference. Married sims had a preference for the gender of their spouse. I looked at all sims that were generated at the time of this test, including children. No families were played, this was only a test to see how the game generates the preferences in my fresh save file.

ETA secondary test in save play file

Ok so then I went into my play file, my special file....
Pretty much everyone was 0/0 except those that I had pushed into relationships or who were already in relationships. All children were 0/0. Spouses had their preference for the gender of their spouse. Sims I had attempted to push into gay relationships were still at 0/0 (casual flirting nothing more). The sims that had gay partners and living as a gay household developed the preference I pushed them into.
