oh my god THANK YOU for this
its so annoyingly easy to have unintentional celebrity sims in this game, this should help with that a LOT
makes so much more sense for the fame system to work this way!!

Thank you so much for this. I've been turning the celebrity thing off entirely because I was tired of my sim children becoming famous for learning basic skills. Now I can finally have true celebrity sims.

Thank you, I always felt the celebrity status was too easy to obtain and my "poor" sims went from rags to riches way more often than I wanted lol

This is cool! I've always hated sims becoming famous just for having a high level job. Question, if I have celebrities already and install this, will their level change according to the new requirements?

I don't know, and I should. I'm sorry. If you try it, could you let me know so I can make a note?

Would it be possible to ask for a more detailed description of the changes?

Like which careers were changed and amount as well as the amount of fame you get from different options.

Thanks for the mod btw

I can guarantee it will. Here's a brief explanation.
This is an XML tuning mod. It exists "below" NRAAS in the game file hierarchy, which makes changes to the tuning but is a new function.
If you boot up NRAAS with this mod, it will show and use the XML values from my mod as a result.

Hi. I will put this on my to-do list and notify you when I've gotten to it.

I love that link to Cathedral vs Parlor modding. That really clarifies the disconnect between various creators. I'm a cathedral modder too. Now I have an identifier .

Thank you for this, much appreciated! Will this affect all sims in town or just the ones I'm playing?

This is more technical question than regarding mod. I never knew skills gave celebrity points? How does that work?

I'm pretty sure they use the same XML, but if you find this isn't the case let me know.

Essentially, each time you gained a skill point, you gained a set amount of celebrity points.
These points were the same for all skills but increased with each skill level.

Oh I had no idea about that! I don't think I have ever gotten a sim famous from gaining skills before :o

Well I played for a bit with it in, nobody else in the hood gained any fame for silly reasons which is what I wanted. It seems adding this in doesn't make any difference to already established celebrities though. Levels stayed the same but since I don't really care about these sims being famous I might use nraas to get rid of their fame level and see if they get famous again as easily.
