Ok, I'm not perfectly sure if this is the right place or whatever, but I think so. :bunny:
Ok, details, I'm trying to edit part of the wantstree.package. I'm trying to change things like how only knowledge sims like being vampires, and all other types of sims have like mass want cure/d spam. Thanks to what I read on Xenos's vampire wants upload, I know how to get to the "Wants Tree Item" instance 0x8fe04166 and xml thing for vampire related wants. Some parts of it make sense, others not so much so. :help:
Like I'm reading through the xml file, and I'm finding things like: <!--Want name is alphaTriggerSleep_4def16f1.xml-->. What want is that? A lot of them are things like "SimIsVampireGood_8f6bf4cb.xml" and I understand what those mean, at least I think I do. I also think I mostly understand the <ads> (well, like maybe 6 of them, I don't get the personData one, but I don't think I care that I don't know what it is) and how to change them to get what I want. I haven't really tried to change them and save and test yet, but I downloaded Xenos's xml file and compared the whole thing to my xml file in my game like line by line, and that helped me understand a few things.
Also, under the <ads> tag there's an attribute called weight and it has a numerical value. I think I might know what it means, sort of, but if anyone knows what it means and can explain what it does I would be very thankful.
And a random side question, the sub tags under the <cGZPropertySetString> tag, if anybody has any idea what any of those sub tags mean, sharing that info would be nice. Because the only thing I've been able to figure out the meaning of in there is the one comment (the "Want name is" one), well, sometimes.
I've tried looking around some, but I haven't had much luck in finding information about editing what a sim will roll for wants/fears. I guess I'm just mostly wondering if anyone has some knowledge in this area, because I'm not always the best at figuring things out for myself by testing them... I've tried that with other things.... didn't work even a little bit, I figured this time I'ld ask for a little help.
Um, as far as my skills, I have limited knowledge of simPE, I know xml some what, and I have some program experience with BV.net. I know enough to know to back-up things before trying to mess with them. I've used simPE for editing a sim (skills, personality, etc) and I think I remember how to change like say how much energy a bed gives. Thanks for reading my chatter, and sorry if i'm just missing something obvious.
