[EXPERIMENTAL] WickedWhims [2022-09-27] (Patreon)

✅ Compatible with the 1.93.129 (November 1st) game patch!

____________________

Oh no, what is this? You should feel scared, but just a little.

This release is special because it's me explicitly asking you to help test how stable and reliable it is. Typically releases are intended to have some expected level of stability because the changes aren't that significant. This release on the other hand has lots of critical internal changes that might have resulted in issues, but I have no way to know without some more people giving me feedback. If you're willing to stress test things, that would help assure everything is working as intended.

⚠️CAREFUL! THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL RELEASE!

• If you use other script mods that connect with WickedWhims (like Nisa's Wicked Perversions), you cannot install this release as it's most likely not compatible right now.
• If you're planning on continuing playing your regular game save, load into gameplay and start by saving it into a new save slot, as the newly introduced save system will not work with older releases of WickedWhims.
• Errors are expected, it would be great if you reported them to me, check out how in the 'Trouble?' section below.

Future releases of WickedWhims will include all of the listed changes and more. At this moment you can give this release a try, see if everything is working well, and continue playing as usual, as long as you follow the conditions listed above.

❗❗❗ Make sure to never save on the Manage Worlds screen. Saving the game on the Manage Worlds screen creates faulty save slots and cannot be properly recognized by mods, so you risk losing save data.

❗ If you're having issues with teen Sims, please first refer to this statement before commenting.

❗ If the tongue or penis is appearing floating/stretched/distorted (even when Sim is not having sex) then you need to delete incompatible/outdated mods affecting tongues and/or penises. Here's a list of known PACKAGE files causing issues:

• Azmodan22_UpdatedRig.package
• Denton47_Rigs.package
• NANDONG_yfHeadDefault.package

New Save System

• Completely reworked the save system

The save system is now completely integrated with the base game format, following standard conventions and solutions which assure stability and reliability. No more weird hidden households or do_not_remove Sims.

Always save when in gameplay, as saving at the Manage Worlds screen can cause issues with your save, even without mods.

❗ Majority of the save data is now handled by base game formats, but some complex data is saved externally in the 'complex_save_data' folder, make sure to never delete it. You're free to delete the 'save_data_backup' folder once you decide to stay with this release.

⚠️ Warning! Saving the game with this new save system will prevent that save from downgrading, so make sure to save on a new save slot before beginning to play.

Most of your existing save data should be automatically converted to the new save format. Notable exceptions are disabled sex locations and selected strapons on Sims. Sorry about the inconvenience, some data is now stored in a whole new way and I had no safe way to convert it.

New Settings System

• Introduced Settings Profiles

To keep settings reliable, they are no longer directly saved within the game save. Settings are now saved as independent external files called "profiles".
Profiles can be used by any game save and altered at any time across all game saves that use the same profile.
A new profile is created for every new game and subsequent game save slots will continue to use the same profile.
You can now make a profile with your favorite settings and use it in every game save, altering any settings will apply to every other existing game save or new game saves that use this profile.

❕ Changes done in settings are now instantly saved and remain regardless if you saved the game.

Nudity

• Updated male body bottom

Thank You to Noir for the continuous effort to improve the default body models and Thank You to Khlas for helping with the technical implementation.

Body Selector

• Expanded body choices for mixed genders

Sims that have an altered body frame can now access more options in the Body Selector to better fit the needs of the modified body shape. This should allow you to fix occasional visual glitches when an opposing gender model is being used by default.

Underwear

• Reworked the underwear implementation

Reworking and limiting the underwear system was one of the sacrifices necessary for the new save system to work, but it's not all doom and gloom!

The new underwear system lets you create three sets of underwear that you can change into at any time. Instead of underwear being assigned to an outfit, these underwear sets are now independent and can be combined with any outfit. Sims will always undress to the last used underwear set unless you choose a different one.

You do have fewer underwear sets in total, but you do get more flexibility which underwear set is used when and with which outfit.

Sex Autonomy

• Added 'Sex Autonomy Probability' interactions
• Removed 'Sex Animations Memory' and 'Sex Locations Memory' functionality

The Sex Animations and Locations Memory systems were meant to help balance the usage frequency of animations and locations by Sims, but it's hard to measure how impactful that implementation was.

Instead of leaving it to the machine, Sex Animations are used more frequently when they are marked as favorite, and Locations are used more frequently with the use of Sex Autonomy Probability interactions.

With Sex Autonomy Probability you can adjust all objects within a category or specific objects likeliness of sex autonomous usage. Or just disable an object from being used.

Simply click on an object and go to Wicked -> Sex Control.

• Added 'Display Sex Autonomy Room Info' debug interaction
• Improved sex autonomy environment detection

Normally I wouldn't mention debug functionalities, but this one is built for player usage. You can access 'Sex Autonomy Room Info' by Shift+Clicking on an object inside of an enclosed space and go to Wicked -> Sex -> Display Sex Autonomy Room Info.

What is Sex Autonomy Room information useful for? Maybe clearing up some confusion. Sims know where to have sex thanks to this information, but you might not understand why they pick that specific room for sex. Now you can check what Sims see and why would they choose a specific location. Additionally, if the information you're seeing doesn't make sense, that might help me further balance the environment detection code.

Other

• Made Shower and Hot Springs WooHoo count as cleaning interactions
• Adjusted how often Sims react to nudity and sex
