THIS IS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!

Question: If you downloaded the x5 difficulty, will this bump down the level 5 celebs already within your town?

Thanks! I haven't even gotten to play any of the new stuff yet, but knowing celebs couldn't get down with vamps annoyed me, ha ha.

traelia - Nope - it won't change current celeb levels, just make it harder to raise level from then on.

LOL, I made a mod a few days ago to make it easier for sims to achieve celeb status, as I had a sim taking forever to hit level 5. But the other levels were pretty easy to get.

Awesome! One of my celebrity sims was a gardener... now, unless she had her own TV show..

Can't stand celebs, they all have the neurotic mannerisms walking around the town, 'cause of the paps.

This was the first mod I thought of after playing Night Life for a bit. It's way too easy to become a celebrity at the default level--almost unavoidable!

I actually like all the disgraceful actions--even though some are silly, they are things that a tabloid would focus on. Any chance there could be a mod for difficulty that doesn't affect the disgraceful actions??

Thanks either way! =]

If ya want to change the disgraceful actions back, you can just open the file in S3PE and change the values for those actions from 0.0 to, well, anything between 0 and 1. I can't recall what the originals were - setting them to 0.5 or 0.75 would work though.

HP- Thank you, this mod is absolutely perfect!

EDIT: For some reason, the downloads stall and go to "Google Chrome cannot find this page."

EDIT EDIT: I got it now, it was the protective school internet.

Excellent. Maybe now any new game save I make won't have the entire (non LN) town as a bunch of low level celebrities right from the start.

Wonderful mod HP! After I found out that my sims could be disgraced by having a child out of wedlock, I didn't want to play with the celebrity feature anymore because I didn't want my simmies to be subject to such "Crumplebottom-esque" moral judgements Thank you so much!

Thank you. It's really way too easy to become a celebrity.

The problem with the "disgraceful" actions is probably also the terminology.
A divorce, for example, is not a disgrace, but it might make headlines that the celeb doesn't exactly like and that make him or her uncomfortable about being in public.

Well... calling it "number of times when there were standing things in the papers you don't wanna read about yourself in the papers" would have been akward.

And I think even by this definition having a baby out of wedlock shouldn't be on the list.

Wow, thank you so much for this. I made my sims a celebrity by accident (chat with someone on computer) and i didn't want that since I want so many babies out of marriage (I have 40 so far :D) Now I can continue my count Thanks :D

make a mod that makes it easier to gain celeb level.

and maybe one that only make levels 4 and 5 easier.

Thanks for making this mod. I installed the x5 variant of this mod and attempted to impress my first celebrity only to find that upon success i gained my first celebrity star, which was a little unexpected!

After tinkering with the mod file a little and reloading a few times for testing i think that the first celebrity star is attained based on the points value of Level 0 and not Level 1. On the default 100 points it only takes me using the impress command twice to gain a celebrity star, but if i set the points to 200, it takes four rounds of impressing.

Thought you might like to know this.
