⛔ sej_XMODTko_Sims4Me_CASTuning.package

☆// ⋆ TOTES SIMPLE "XTKO" DESCRIPTION:

Disables randomization of the following items for new Sims in CAS and Live Mode:

[✔️] Accessories -- Earrings, Glasses, Necklaces, Bracelets, Gloves, Rings, Socks
[✔️] Hats
[✔️] Makeup -- Face Paint, Eye Shadow, Eyeliner, Blush, Lipstick
[✔️] Ghost Part -- I assume this is the "Ghost-Only" CAS items.
[✔️] Tattoos
[❌] Occult Skin Details -- This setting either doesn't work or it doesn't work as expected, because Occult Sims still randomize with one of every Body Scar. This is remedied by CAS Overrides, which are linked above in the EXTRA BOOTY section.

Disables Jealousy for Non-Physical Romance for new Sims in CAS and Live Mode:

[✔️] Because EAxis constantly screws up flirty autonomy which ruins established relationships and I have no patience for it anymore, huzzah!

Overhauls the Pregnancy Options in CAS:

[✔️] This is similar to the modifications seen in "CAS Gender Breast Option & Pregnancy Both" by Maars and "Sims can impregnate and be impregnated!" by bubbee, but I did it with handy-dandy check-boxes! Choosing both options means the Sim can do both, and choosing neither means... you get the idea.

☆// ⋆ MY TOTES UNETHICAL APPROACH TO "XMODTKO":

Let's address the elephant in the room.

There are some creators, usually CAS and BuildBuy Custom Content creators, who put disclaimers in their descriptions that we can download and modify their stuff for our own use but we cannot redistribute it.

I respect that; but also, if you're not gonna fix your !@#$, then I will.

I'm sorry, but not everyone wants to learn how to mod, and I have oodles of time on my hands, and I need to occupy my mind.

This doesn't apply to every creator I "XMODTko", nor does it apply to Sims4Me. Some are for simple reasons like they're inactive or on hiatus or just didn't notice something is broken and I have no idea how to contact them, so I'mma fix it myself. Others might be "special cases".

Point is, I can do some !@#$, so I'mma do some !@#$.

It's not like I'm trying to pass off anyone's work as my own.

🎙️ My music's so loud, I'm swangin'! They hopin' that they gon' catch me ridin' dirty!

If my approach to this makes you feel weird, how about I explain how to do every "XMODTko" I share? That might ruffle feathers even more... 😹💀

☆// ⋆ PROGRESSION - THIS IS NOT A CHANGE-LOG:

🌠 2/22/2025 - FEATURE UPDATE!

You get the pregnancy changes but not the breast toggle.

I don't really want to modify those traits to make them work in CAS, but if someone really wants it, I'll do it as a variant.

I'll see about wrapping up my Gender Options Pie Menu. It has been in "work-in-progress" too long. The custom interactions that add and remove traits don't require those traits to be modified, so no unnecessary modded flags on your Sims.

⚡ 2/21/2025 #5 - THE MODDED FLAG IS BUGGING ME...

Modified EAxis traits flag Sims as "modded".

To make Breast_ForceOn/Off work in CAS, it needs to be modified.

I don't like unnecessary modded flags on my Sims. I'm already looking into making AnimXGenWear work with custom traits instead of modifying the Clothing Preference traits just to avoid this.

Is the modded flag even something Simmers care about or is this just a "me" thing?

⚡ 2/21/2025 #4 - THERE'S ANOTHER ISSUE + MY IDEA DIDN'T WORK...

The other issue is that making these breasts traits compatible with CAS means modifying them, which means they then flag your Sim as modded.

My idea didn't work as I hoped it would. A custom trait to remove the two breasts traits works flawlessly, but then you're back to having to remove this new custom trait manually from your Sim. How about a custom trait with a custom loot configured to remove said trait? Brilliant idea but the loot isn't triggering to remove the trait. How about the loot by itself? CAS doesn't like it because I can't define a loot as a CAS trait. Like c'mon, just do what I want already! 😹

This is annoying me. I would rather finish my Gender Options Pie Menu and include custom immediate interactions for these breast traits than have to mod them like this.

On a related note, I discussed the issue with body textures on transframe Sims with the NudePart Override, right? As it turns out, the Breasts_ForceOn trait changes the textures for Male Sims with Feminine Frames, so if like me you don't have an issue with your M/FF Sim "having breasts" while wearing feminine clothing, you could use it when wearing feminine tops and full body clothing that show cleavage to alleviate the texture thing.

On an unrelated note, I think I found the resources that control the names we see in CAS. I'll poke around it to verify some other time.

⚡ 2/21/2025 #3 - THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THESE BREASTS TRAITS...

By default, NEITHER of these traits are used for female or male Sims, meaning female Sims DO NOT generate with the Breasts_ForceOn trait and male Sims DO NOT generate with the Breasts_ForceOff trait. Does that make sense?

The issue is that once these traits are added to your Sim, the only way to get rid of them seems to be by using the console cheat or by using MC Command Center's "MC CAS" module.

I CANNOT code this in a way that removes the trait once either of them is added to the Sim because that's just not how CASTuning works. The only option you have to get rid of either of them completely is to remove them in Live Mode.

I have no idea if Maars considered this and if that's why they provided the console cheat codes in their description.

There is something I can try though...

⚡ 2/21/2025 #2 - IT'S DEFINITELY POSSIBLE!

And I can make it betta, baby! Both the third-party mods linked above ADD a "Both" option to the current pregnancy options, however, that's not necessary. We can checkbox this !@#$ the same way Sexual Orientation options are checkbox.

⚡ 2/21/2025 #1 - WE CAN DO THAT?!

Apparently it's possible to just add to the Gender Options menus in CAS without modifying any SGFX resources?! QUE?! It's good to be online.

I might add the features from these two mods:
