They're so random!

• All unplayed sims will automatically receive random likes and dislikes (+ Turn-Ons and Tunr-Offs if you have Lovestruck)
• Played sims can also automatically receive random likes and dislikes through an optional add-on.
• You can turn off or on preferences notifications for played sims or automatically turn off them for all played sims through an optional add-on.

Please, remember that "unplayed sims" means those appearing in the "Other Households" tab in the "Manage Households" menu, while "played sims" means those appearing in the "My Households" tab.

Every unplayed sim will receive from 0 to 50 (the game limit) likes or dislikes after appearing in an active lot for the first time. This process can take some game minutes to be finished. With the add-on installed, this is also valid for played sims.
In general, teens to older will get around 5 to 15 preferences. Kids will get fewer (see the pictures). In this way, children will have space for likes and dislikes they only can have after growing up.




Every time an unplayed sim goes to a new life stage, they may receive new likes or dislikes. The lower the number of preferences they have before growing up, the higher the chance of getting new preferences. They will never change or lose a preference they already have. They only can receive new ones. In this way, an adult that has no preferences about Pop Music may start to dislike (or like) this kind of music after becoming elder, and so on. If you have the optional add-on installed, this feature will also be applied on played sims.



You can turn off notifications asking about preferences for a played sim individually. To do that, click in the sim you want holding shift (after using testingcheats is on), find the FDSims4Mods Menu, go to this mod submenu, and choose “Preferences Popup Config”. Remember: this action only changes the appearance of notifications related to the sim you selected. You don’t need the add-on package installed to that.



You can also reset the notification system for a chosen Sim. It is a standard game feature that you will never be asked again about the preferences in an activity “A” after you answered “no” in another notification about the same activity “A”. In music, you never be asked again about music preferences by answering “No” for any music preference popup notification. After doing a reset in this system through this mod, you will receive these blocked notifications again. Moreover, with the reset button, you can reactivate notifications for sims where they have been turned off.



You can give one random like or dislike in any category you want to any sim you want (whether you already played with them or not). To do that, click in the sim you want (holding shift and with testingcheats on) to give a new preference, find the FDSims4Mods Menu, go to this mod submenu, and choose the option “Give a random preference in”.



You can give more than one random like or dislike for any sim you want (played or not) using a unique interaction. To do that, use the button “Try to give more random preferences” in this mod menu. It is a try because you can receive none (zero) of them in the random choice. This happens mainly if the selected sim already has a lot of preferences. The optional add-on does not need to be installed to use this feature in played sims.



As shown in the cover picture, all NPC sims can receive likes and dislikes. Even those with unique functions such as the Grim Reaper, the Father Winter, the Flower Bunny, and others. Consequently, they can briefly stop their typical actions to show likes and dislikes animations. In this way, the Grim Reaper may decide to admire that gorgeous table you have in the room before reaping your soul.




A sim not necessarily will have preferences in all available categories. They can get likes or dislikes in only some of them or even in only one of them. They will have more chances to get a preference for music or activity than color or décor. In other words, in general, most of the sims will have more preferences about music and activities than about color or décor.
Inside a category, all likes and dislikes have the same weight. However, some traits influence the random choice as follows:

• Music Lovers have a tiny chance of not liking any music genre.
• Dance Machine Sims can not dislike DJ Booth Music or Dancing. They also have minimal chance of disliking DJ Mixing or any music played in an unused DJ Booth (Electronica, Hip-Hop, NuDisco, Pop, Retro, and S-Pop).
• Childish Sims cannot dislike Kids Radio Music. On the other hand, those who Hates Children will never like it.
• Romantic Sims will not dislike Romantic Music. Unflirty ones, on the contrary, will never like it.
• Children of the Islands and Island Ancestors will never dislike Island Music.
• Father Winter and his sons cannot dislike Winter Holiday Music.
• Goofballs are less likely to dislike Comedy activities and never will dislike Mischief.
• Mean Sims cannot dislike Mischief. On the other hand, Propers will never like this activity.
• A Foodie Sim very rarely will dislike Cooking or Baking.
• Active Sims will never dislike Fitness and have a slight chance of disliking Bowling, Rock Climbing, Skiing, or Snowboarding.
• Lazy Sims will never like Fitness and rarely will like Bowling, Rock Climbing, Skiing, or Snowboarding.
• Music Lovers have a tiny chance of disliking playing any musical instrument or singing.
• A Maker sim will never dislike Handiness.
• Art Lovers cannot dislike Painting.
• Geeks are unable to dislike video games.
• Adventurous have only a tiny chance of disliking Rock Climbing, Skiing, or Snowboarding.
• Snob Sims cannot like Basic Décor. On the other hand, Freegans cannot dislike it.
• Sims will never randomly dislike a fashion style they are predominantly wearing.
• Sims will not randomly like or dislike conversation topics that go against their traits. For example, unflirty sims will never randomly like flirtation conversations.
• Sims will have a low probability of randomly disliking characteristics they have. For example, goofballs will have less chance to randomly dislike funny sims.

The statements above are not valid in case a sim receives a trait after getting a preference. For example, a child without the Proper Trait who likes Mischief will continue to like this activity even after receiving a Proper trait when growing up.
Nobody will automatically receive preferences linked with the Star Wars Pack. I don’t have it, so I cannot do mods for it.
After installing a new expansion (and the complimentary mod package linked to it), sims may automatically receive random likes or dislikes related to this expansion. For example, you may receive décor preferences after installing the Dream Home Decorator Game Pack and the complementary mod file linked to it. This may occur even if you already have installed this mod (without the complementary file) and already received random preferences. The higher the number of likes and dislikes a sim already has, the lower the probability of getting a new preference associated with the DLC you just install.

This mod doesn’t override anything. So, it’s (probably) compatible with any other mod.
You don’t need any Kits, Expansion, Game, or Stuff Packs to use this mod.
If you install a complementary mod package of an expansion you don’t have, you will not get random preferences linked to that expansion even after installing it.

IMPORTANT: This mod requires Scumbumbo’s XML Injector Script Mod to work. If you don’t have it, you can download it from his Memorial webpage (www.scumbumbomods.com/xml-injector). You only need the script mod (the “.package” file isn’t necessary).

• English
• Russian (by wisecowboysim)
• French (by Candyman.fr)
• Portuguese (by CRB)
• Chinese (by GreenOnionC)

You must install the “.package” file with “BASEGAME” in its name and those with the expansions names you have.

Do not install files for expansion packs you do not own.

If you want played sim to receive random likes and dislikes, install the Add-On package called "PalyedSims".
If you want automatically turn off preferences popups for all played sims, install the Add-On package called "PalyedSims_AutoOffNotifications".
After installing a new expansion, install the complementary mod file linked to this expansion.
