Say Thanks!
Thanked!
Are you sick and tired of Sims autonomously kissing when they greet or say bye to other Sims? Do you have Cyjon's StopKissingMe mod but feel it is not quite enough? This mod might be just the thing! Sims will no longer kiss other Sims when saying hello or bye regardless of their relationship status. Finally you can have slow moving relationships, secret crushes or simply shy Sims that aren't the kind of pixels that do things that way.
I've personally always been annoyed at this autonomous action, because it makes it such a hassle to have a Sim secretly like another, or just have a relationship where things don't get physical for a long time. I tried to find a mod that would fix it, but it just did not exist. The closest thing was Cyjon's StopKissingMe that only allows kisses with crush/love status, but that wasn't quite enough for me so I finally decided to take things into my own hands.
Because Cyjon so kindly allows people to use his code for whatever they want, I have gone ahead and edited his mod to completely remove kissing from the greeting/goodbye repertoire. Full credit to him for the actual coding and original work, I have merely gone in and made a few changes to make it work as I want it to.
Note that this mod does not affect the date-end scenario. I'd love to include that, but I don't know how to. You can work around it by saying bye instead of using end date, or make sure the active sim is busy doing something when you end the date and you can cancel the kiss.
It has been play tested by me and ttowntallyho, and so far no problems have arisen.
That should be all. I hope this helps all you others out there that share my frustration over this autonomous action. Let me know if you find any problems with the mod =)
Requirements/Compatibility
I have listed NL as the required EP, but you do not have to have NL. It is the lowest EP that this mod requires to work, but it will also work if you have any of the later EPs. It is compatible with all EPs and SPs, but you must have NL or higher for it to work.
Conflicts
Conflicts with Cyjon's mod, so you have to pick between mine and his.
Also conflicts with Squinge's Less romantic greet & goodbye. Squinge's mod does the same as Cyjons, making Sims only kiss if they have crush/love status, but also includes hugging. You'll have to pick between my mod or Squinge's. If you'd like to use the hugging part of his mod, but my kissing part, make my mod load after his. Thank you Essa for pointing out this conflict.

About Me
--- Currently retired from creating due to health reasons ----
--- No longer sharing content on MTS ---
I hope to return one day but for now consider me retired, and my uploads unsupported. I still share things sometimes on tumblr and I chat on discord servers, but I do not promise support for things I've shared as I don't know when or if I'm around and whether or not I'll have the ability and energy to do something if I am around.
If you ever downloaded something of mine, thank you! It's a great feeling seeing something you spent time on be useful to someone else in their game, and with all the great CC out there I'm very flattered you would choose to get something of mine.
I do not take requests. I do sometimes make things for people, but only when I see someone wishing for something on the forums and I feel like making it for them. So if you have a mod you wish would exist, make a post in Hacks and CC that you'd like to see!-thread. That's what it's there for after all! :)
A shoutout to VioletPadfoot for inspiring me to try creating, long ago. You gave me the nudge that got me started, and I'm very grateful. I'd also like to thank all of the wonderful experienced creators (gdayars, justJones, maybesomethingdunno, NixNivis, whoward69, HugeLunatic and many more) out there that wrote the tutorials I've used, or that has answered my questions when I've gotten stuck. You guys are what makes learning fun, and what inspires me to keep expanding my knowledge with new projects. Special thanks to Michelle who has helped me a lot when it comes to objects and recolors, and BoilingOil who taught me some modding basics that I needed when I started modding more seriously.
Policy
My policy is now open. I'd appreciate a message telling me about your work, because it's fun for me to see, and it means I know about it and can refer others to it if they reach out. As much as I would like to provide support for my own work, my health is too unstable and I have to prioritize. So if anyone else would like to fix problems or continue something and share it with others, that's great go forth :) If you can learn from my work or improve on it, wonderful. Welcome to ask questions on crafters, if I can I'll answer.
I'd appreciate if people do not share default replacements from my stuff as I do not like default replacements, but I can't stop you anyway so no point in acting like I could. If you want to respect my wishes, I appreciate it, if you don't care then well nothing I can do about it.
Other sites
Only share content on tumblr now. Still retired though so probably nothing, but if something new comes out, that's where it'll be. You can find it linked here on my profile.
