Hi again MTS! Haven't uploaded anything here since way way back in the TS2 days, but I wanted to share a little fix I put together for TS4.
A year ago when the Scared buff was added to the game, the Sims team added a scared expression for the servos' face screens in their portraits, but it looks like they forgot to add it to the servos themselves in-game. This mod fixes this oversight and gives servos a proper expression when they're scared.
The scared buff is supposed to use the sad buff expression for servos, so I made this show up when they're scared. But they still had tears showing on the screen which didn't feel appropriate, so then I used denton47's TS4 VFX Tool to make a different version of this expression without the tears.
There are two package files in the download: ServoScaredFix for the fix and ScaredServoNoTears for the new expression. Both files must be in the Mods folder in order for the fix to work. (I had tried merging the files into one package but it didn't work that way)
This is my first mod of this type, hopefully everything should work but let me know if it's not working for you.
The following XML resources were changed:
0C772E27!0000001D!00000000000379E8.loot_Humanoid_Robots_Buffs_EmotionVFX_Add
0C772E27!0000001D!0000000000037DCD.loot_Humanoid_Robots_Buffs_EmotionVFX_Angry_Social
And a new resource was created based on the sad expression, buff_Humanoid_Robots_MoodVFX_Sad, but this shouldn't conflict.
Also note that this may conflict with other mods which use custom effects from the TS4 VFX Tool, since it seems you can only use one custom VFX resource file at a time for now.
