BG - Custom Preferences
Added 2021-06-03 16:07:55 +0000 UTCI tried my hands at this... and I'll not do more because I don't care enough and it's a pain in the ass, but this can be used as a base for more I guess.
Works the same as Maxis ones, needs the XML Injector
Overrides nothing.

UPDATE:
Separated the files, added missing strings for chess because I'm an idiot and I deleted them, added likes/dislikes reading

Hello...?

2022-07-03 17:54:29 +0000 UTCA preference category should exist for the book genres, but I can't see that anyone has made on. How would I do that?

2022-04-17 18:02:53 +0000 UTCWhy did they add them at all? There were already preferences in game (movies from movie hangout and weather from seasons) and didn't even go back to fix them... Now it feels like something disconnected from the rest of the game like every addition they do.

2021-06-09 15:18:40 +0000 UTCWhy did they not add preferences for all of the activities? It's beyond me! (Thank for the reading one :D)

2021-06-08 16:27:59 +0000 UTCThe new career has a lot of problems. Preferences seem to have a lot of problems too (knowing another sim preferences breaks the profile if the other sim is not in household) https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-DHD-Empty-Gig-List/td-p/10390829, https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-DHD-CL-Can-t-enter-penthouse-lots-for-gigs/td-p/10390339, https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Sim-Profile-not-opening-after-Learning-Dis-Likes-LUIE/m-p/10376525/highlight/true#M183378 these are all unrelated to mods

2021-06-08 10:21:51 +0000 UTCSo I was finally able to test these. Reading, chess and no random would let me select gigs but no likes/dislikes were visible. Main would not even let me select a new gig. Clicking on the clipboard icon, to open the available gigs menu, did nothing. the menu would not appear. I tested these alone, one at a time. Side note, I can not enter apartments for HD gigs. I'm sure it's unrelated, but I know how much you like Maxis' QA department, so thought I'd share.

2021-06-08 08:08:52 +0000 UTCRight.. I need to test this on my own because I'm getting contradictory reports about the mods causing this problem...

2021-06-08 01:34:30 +0000 UTCSorry I do have the "no random preferences for NPCs". But on it's own, it doesn't seem to cause any issues.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-08 01:05:59 +0000 UTCI have just the three here, reading, main and chess.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-07 23:29:02 +0000 UTCdo you also have the one that removes the random assignation of preferences to sims?
Zero_
2021-06-07 16:47:48 +0000 UTCIt would appear that problem persists. I haven't tried them individually yet.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-07 14:59:34 +0000 UTCI certainly will. I should get some time tonight.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-07 01:50:14 +0000 UTCyes, same problem she's having too... i haven't tested the career, let me know if it works now.

2021-06-07 01:43:24 +0000 UTCI haven't had a chance to play yet. I did mod removal and troubleshooting to find the issue. When it wasn't working, I was still able interact with clients but no info was updated in the gig menu. In fact that section was completely blank. No circles or text or anything.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-07 01:37:39 +0000 UTCdid it work now? 'cause someone is having this same problem with no mods (also the interactions to ask the preferences aren't there)
Zero_
2021-06-07 01:25:16 +0000 UTCLikes would not show up in the gig menu, so I wouldn't know what did or did not like. When I removed the older chess preference mode, it was functional again.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-07 00:48:17 +0000 UTCthat's controlled from the script... what problem were you having? I probably know the cause

2021-06-06 20:06:02 +0000 UTCNice! The previous version I had to remove, because it messed with the career client likes.
Mic Mathers
2021-06-06 18:57:37 +0000 UTCI uploaded it just so people can have a template to work on... Doing them is probably easier than personally trait, but to make them work like Maxis ones there are a bunch of buffs involved
Zero_
2021-06-03 17:13:10 +0000 UTCIt seems like too much types of actions need to make over for uploading new likes/dislikes. It's really boring to make over all but about from 3 to 5 maybe ok. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to explore your mod =)

2021-06-03 16:45:39 +0000 UTCI started doing that too but really.... it's a pain in the ass, they're all pointless fluff, i got bored midway

2021-06-03 16:22:11 +0000 UTCFlower arranging vs chess...hmmm
