TUTORIAL - How to Customize Ars Goetia Daemons
Added 2020-11-03 08:15:51 +0000 UTCAKA: How To Mod My Mod.
I was asked if this is possible, technically... yes. You can make the mod spawn your own Sims, be ware that:
1. I didn't test this with sims having CCs, ever
2. custom sliders may very well mess up the sims
So, let's say I want to replace Undine with this Sim:
Step one: save her to the Library:
Name, traits, aspiration and occult do not matter. The mod is always going to spawn the Sim the way I set it. That's controlled by other things.
Step 2: open Sims4Studio and press CTRL + Shift + C to bring up this cheats menu, write Tray and press OK
It will load the content of your library. Select the Sim you want to use:
Right click on it and select "export SimInfo"
Save the file somewhere and make an empty package in S4Studio, click on ADD - SimInfoResource:
We need an instance for it, so let's do it:
I use FNV32 High Bit because I found out it mess up things less. Also, leave the Group to 00000000, and replace the last 8 digits of the instance with the one you generated:
On the new resource, click on Import:
Find the file you saved before. If you can't see it, set the file type to All Types:
Import it into the mod, open Ars Goetia and find the four SimTemplates:
Demon Test is the one with the hood. The others are pretty easy to understand. I'll select the Ondine one:
The highlighted number is what we want to change to the instance of your own sim you imported into your own package:
Like this:
Save your package, save Ars Goetia. Put your package in the mods folder. The mod will now spawn your sim in place of mine.
