Big Ol' Project Proof of Concept
🕑 Added 2025-11-12 23:45:12 +0000 UTCThe two examples pictured took...20 minutes to make, because I have to browse through stuff to figure out what specific special features a trait has, and it's essentially impossible to weed out irrelevant things. For instance, every single trait is accounted for in zillions of social interactions. I'm not going to check each and every interaction to see if it's tied to it for a special reason, but they're all in there because of compatibility calculations and stuff. So I have to do a lot of skimming to try and find things that are both relevant, and important enough to mention here.
I've wanted to do a project like this for a long time but it's a lot of work. I think it'd help make the game feel more "gamey" and help people understand how complicated it all really is, especially when you get out of base game traits and into more intricate stuff. For example, did you know Wiggly infants learn all motor-related milestones twice as fast? No? Yeah, me neither. But this mod would put that info in the trait description, so you WOULD know. Because how else would you ever?
It'd probably be most useful for reward traits, reward store traits, and hidden traits.
No promises, but I want to make this.
Consider that there are well over 200 traits...and 2 took me 20 minutes...

splitting the labor with other modders is a good idea

Wow, this would be huge-- not just meaning INCREDIBLE to have in-game (thanks for doing EA's work lol)-- but a massive project. Any chance you can find some modders to work with you to split the headache? IDK if you know Carl personally or if he's still active but I feel like he'd be all over a project like this.

Hey beautiful, i love this idea, especially cause lately ive been looking for more immersive or realistic traits to put in my sims, so have u thought about talking to Kiarasims4mods or Vicky (the one from turning lot traits to challenges) to join ? Even if you don't is still so cool..
