Overview
This little mod gives you a way to improve at poker and work on your skills, rather than relying solely on luck. It adds two things:
Requirements
Night Life + any one pack from Bon Voyage and later.
I'm not sure if stuff packs count, but if you have BV, FT, AL or Super/Ultimate Collection, you're good.
Conflict Resolving
The mod may conflict with other mods that override the same resources:
Player - Should Fold? | BHAV 0x7F71C68E 0x00002009
Game - Score Hand | BHAV 0x7F71C68E 0x0000202A
Known Issues
Even without mods, I noticed that poker game has issues -- sometimes sims would get stuck in a loop of shuffling cards or endless idling. Players have to get up from the table to break the cycle and start fresh. The code is quite complex, and I haven't been able to fix it.
This little mod gives you a way to improve at poker and work on your skills, rather than relying solely on luck. It adds two things:
- highly creative sims have a chance to cheat at poker to fake a better hand, unless they're nice (7+ creativity, up to 4 niceness),
- highly charismatic sims may have other sims buy into their bluff and fold when they wouldn't otherwise, unless those sims have a pretty good hand or higher charisma (7+ charisma is considered high here).
