Mod Description
Acne has been sorely missing from The Sims 3, so I've created this mod to add an acne system to the game!
This is a script mod that can be placed in your Packages folder. It was built and tested on 1.69 but should work fine on 1.67.
Version 2.2
Updates
3/1/24
Overview
Requirements
In order for the face acne to show up,please download Around The Sims 3’s converted acne face overlay called “ATS3-makeup-TU-acnee-sims4”. The link is under the Downloads tab!
Around The Sims 3 has allowed me to add a modified package file of the acne face overlay to properly enable Adult acne. The package is now included in the zip file with the mod.
Acne System
Sims aged Teen to Adult will have a random chance of getting the new custom Acne Breakout moodlet that applies face acne at6:00am every day 6:00am for Teens, 7:00am for Young Adults, and 8:00am for Adults. By default Teens have a 20% base chance, Young Adults have a 10% base chance, and Adults have a 5% base chance.
Certain traits can also increase or decrease the chance of a sim getting acne by 5%.
Increased Chance Traits - Slob and Unlucky
Decreased Chance Traits - Neat and Lucky
Pregnant Young Adult and Adult sims have their chance of acne increased by 5%.
Sims will also get the Embarrassed moodlet, unless they have the Brave, Inappropriate, Insane, or Rebellious trait.
Sims with the Diva or Dramatic trait will take a larger hit to their mood when the Acne Breakout moodlet is active (-30 instead of -20).
Occults
Werewolves, Witches, Fairies, Genies, and Mermaids are half as likely to get acne as humans (Teens 10%, Young Adults 5%, and Adults 1%).
Vampires and Plant Sims have no chance of getting acne (vamps because they’re technically dead and plant sims because they’re… you know, plants). Pregnant sims of these occult types do not have their chance of acne increased.
All of these percentages are tunable in the XML file.
Interactions
Apply Acne Toner: An interaction at the sink that only appears when a sim has acne, gives sims the custom Feeling Fresh moodlet and reduces the Acne Breakout moodlet by 4 hours. This interaction can only be used once every 6 hours. Using acne toner costs §2 to use (can be adjusted in the XML file).
[Additional Feature] Gussy Up: Using the Gussy Up interaction on a mirror has a 5% chance of removing a sim’s acne.
Wash Face: An interaction at the sink available to Teens and Up, gives sims the custom Practicing Self Care moodlet. This interaction can only be used once every 12 hours.
New Moodlets
Acne Breakout: Given when sims get acne, lasts 24 hours, -20 mood
Feeling Fresh: Given when sims use the Apply Acne Toner interaction, lasts 6 hours, +10 mood
Practice Self Care: Given when sims use the Wash Face interaction, lasts 12 hours, +10 mood (bonus points if you know the description reference 
)
Tuning
I wanted to make this mod as flexible as possible, so there are quite a few tunable values listed under the cut.
Conflicts & Known Issues
This is a new script mod so there shouldn’t be any conflicts.
