Visible Weather Preferences

File Type Package

Version v. 1.1.1

Last Update Nov 26, 2024

About This Mod

Normally, your Sims’ weather preferences (for sun, rain, snow, and wind) are hidden from you as “hidden traits.” This mod makes those existing preferences visible by visualizing them as Likes and Dislikes traits in the UI.

This mod does not add new gameplay mechanics; it only reveals what is already present in your Sim’s data.

Important Note

Since the 1.108 game patch, the way custom likes and dislikes work has changed significantly.

To see these weather preferences in your game, you must have Zerbu’s Custom Preferences Mod installed. Without Zerbu’s mod, you will not see the weather preferences, and using custom likes/dislikes mods alone may cause an infinite loading screen or prevent CAS from opening.

Compatibility

This mod overwrites the original hidden traits from the game. It will conflict with any other mod that modifies the same trait resources.

Known Conflicts:

Unhidden Traits mod by Chingyu (specifically the Visible Weather Preferences add-on).
PrefPlus mod by Helaene (specifically the Weather, Season and Holiday add-on).

To resolve these conflicts, simply remove the specific add-ons mentioned above while keeping the rest of those mods.

Override Mod

This mod overrides core game resources instead of adding new ones.

High conflict risk: Any other mod that overrides the same resources will conflict with this mod.
One-override rule: If two mods modify the same resource, usually only one can be used safely.
Patch sensitive: Override mods are more likely to break after game updates.

Recommendation: test this mod alone after patches and clear localthumbcache.package.
