Autonomous Casual Romance

[strangetomato]

I just installed ACR.

That is all. ;)







Ophelia: Wanna make out?

Johnny: YES!!!




Random college student: Get a room!

Ripp: *is generally okay with this*




Many, MANY makeouts later... (easily more than 10)

Ripp: *is still generally cool with this*




Not a care in the world...



So, ummm.... jealousy? What jealousy?

(I didn't adjust a thing, by the way.)

Johnny isn't jealous either. He's a 2/4 on the jealousy scale, so he won't kick Ripp's ass unless Phi has a wedding ring on her finger. Phi is 3/4 on the jealousy scale (requires some form of commitment to get jealous, but that wouldn't really apply anyway), and Ripp is... you guessed it... 0/4. He really doesn't give a shit.

Nobody has made any move to woohoo anyone yet and I've played through about a day with them. I wonder when that kicks in?



Anyway, I'm liking this so far. You can adjust things to your liking, so it's pretty easy to control. I've finally jumped on the bandwagon. Go me!

Now, I'm off to play with Pleasantview a little... I'm working it up in the "background" for my story. ACR should be a fun time there.

Heeee! Welcome to the dark side! *DUN DUN DUUUUUN!*

I usually don't adjust things on the ACR. I only read the manual once and just randomly click on stuff :P.

Oh, you just wait until those three graduate. With a family sim as Phi and a half-family like Ripp, you'll better keep a close eye on those two or you'll be flooded with babies :D. You can adjust that, of course, but the silly randomness is fun too!

Tee hee hee. You gave in to the pressure!!!

Even with 3 bolters, its possible for them to not do much. Both have to be currently not busy, and there has to be an open bed/couch/hot tub/photo booth. :P You can also set how strong the autonomy is from really low to high. If you want them woohooing more, maybe turn it up?

Just be aware that this affects when you have sims on community lots too. Like if you're playing Ripp, and he goes downtown and you see Frances in the background out of your control, it is possible for Frances to use ACR to fool around with whoever else is on the lot. :P So be careful!

Ooh, imagine this with the silent pregnancy hack. We could all play the game of "Who's Phi's babydaddy?".

I'm suprised that you haven't had a lot of random woohoo. Johnny knocked up Cordi (one of my characters) minutes after I installed.

Yay, ACR! The many make-outs get annoying after some time. It's just like "YES, YOU'RE IN LOVE LALALALALA DO SOMETHING ELSE YOU'RE GOING TO DIE." They don't listen, they just get undressed and woohoo in front of their children in the living room. XD

Maybe they didn't woohoo because the autonomous setting is..set to medium or low?

Welcome to the League of ACR Addicts. :)

It's a fun mod to play with, and I think most of us that try it never want to go back to playing without it. I know it certainly helps make up my mind on who my sims pair off with. Mostly because they're telling me to sit down and shut up as they're getting it on with who they want to. :)

I love me some ACR. As long as I have InSim and ACR, I am a happy happy simmer. Welcome to the clique!

DUDE, I MUST BE DREAMING! XD

Seriously though, ACR is fun. And you actually won't see as much autonomous interactions unless you put it on the highest level like I did in the asylum. When I have it like that it doesn't really do much for me either- only occasional flirting and makeouts.

Do you play in the megahood, or did you just add clones to Strangetown?

[ownsimscorner.livejournal.com]

Yay! :D You`ll never play without it again, I assure you. ;)

Ooh, I've been waiting for someone to be a real guinea pig for this.

I'm interested in the nitty gritty. Installation and set up? Pain in the ass? I was a bit intimidated with what appeared to be a "you have to set everyone and the hood and. . .blahblahblah".

But are you using your "real" characters or just clones? Did you get your whole game working or are you still running only base and AL (I think I missed something somewhere).

I love ACR. I got it for the one sim and setting gender preferences, but it's made me laugh out loud more times than I can count! :D

I second the "welcome to the dark side!" comment. :) *evil grin*

It is so much fun when they start doing it all over the place! And it really is customizable, which is good. :) I think you'll like it. And it'll kick in soon, I was worried at first too but it does kick in. :)
