I see... I kind of wanted one sim to be attracted to another (as they previously were) but now they're not anymore. I have 6 in my household and they're all not related. Wanted like a Jersey Shore/Real World kinda thing and see who hooks up with who.

Apparently, none of them are attracted to anyone in their household anymore so that kind of kills the whole thing.

But they're still hot item with other sims in the neighborhood and still get pestered for dates. Elder ones, married ones, roommate's boyfriend & girlfriend... you name it! But not with each other. Hmph! Now where's the fun in that?!

You can try using NRaas Woohooer if you want to 'reroll' attraction for anyone. It has interactions at the day spa that recalculate the score along its own scoring system, and it also recalculates it every 24 hours if I recall correctly.

I have actually downloaded that... Just haven't gotten round to installing it yet. But thanks, I will try that out.

As much as I love Woohooer, it's caused absolute chaos in my game... one of my couples keep flirting with each other's parents - both of them! It's like some really badly-written soap opera. Didn't realise I could reroll the attraction though, hopefully that'll fix things. Fingers crossed!

When I look at the code, it all seems too ... logical. In real life, most guys, especially the ones wo objectively are "good catches" know that women are attracted to "bad boys," ie guys who objectively have nothing to offer. Those same "good catch" guys won't admit it, but they are attracted to "bad girls." Of course good looks never hurt.

Obviously, sims with the attractive lifetime reward shoud be attractive to other sims. Perhaps this, along with eye candy and rebel. Plus traits like charismatic, flirty, irresistable and perhaps great kisser (read great lay).

Wealth and career level really shoud only attract sims with the golddigger lifetime wish. High skills should appeal only to nerdy sims -- however, since we really do not have a real nerd trait, something else will have to do.

And while many will object, body size should be a factor. Waiflike sims should probably be more attractive than big beautiful sims.

Lets be honest, most guys would much rather hook up with Britney Spears than Hillary Clinton, even though Spears has the insane trait, while Clinton is highly skilled and very successful.

While the code may LOOK logical, it doesn't play out that way. Otherwise the burglar who tried to rob my sim last night wouldn't have tried to romance my sim.

But as for you body size comment, well, consider this the first objection, since "waiflike" people AND sims are, in my opinion, considerably less attractive. When I see one, all I want to do is offer them a cheeseburger. It's a highly subjective issue.There are probably many more people who like curvy women than stick figures.

And as for comparing Britney to Hillary, your talking about two VERY different age groups. Hillary was quite pretty when she was Britney's age. (Seriously, she was.) Intelligence is quite sexy, and I have a theory that Hillary gets her freak on. After all, she IS married to Bill, and still waters run deep and all that.

I don't mind body types being a part of the attraction system, I object to one body type being more attractive for all sims. Let it be set either by the player or story progression, each sim may like a body type different from another. As for my preference in sims games, I would set it as random or something like that because in real life body type doesn't matter to me. Nerdy, intelligent, caring, wicked humorous men rock my socks more than the gorgeous faces and buffed bodies. Thus my severe crush on Pescado. :lovestruc Well, I would have to minus the caring part.

Then, you had better use his mods. Otherwise, you'd be cheating on him.

OK, that is funny Frankie.

I must tell you I have the "commitment issues" trait.

LOL! In that case, so do I.

I've seen photos of her from her college days, and I will give you credit, given you're clearly a supportive relative of Hilliary's, for sticking up for her. TBH, though, I think Britney is overrated. I keep picturing her during her shaved head phase. Natalie Portman she's not.

Oh, and age group attraction has never been an issue in the game. Plenty of elderly women with young men, and the converse, all the time nowadays in the game. Which can, to some extent, limit population growth.

Britney's problem is her neck tbh, she has the thickest, most bull-like neck ever. I won't bother to google, but Hillary Clinton's neck has never caused a "whoa, Ferninand" effect in me. Natalie Portman has a postively swan-like neck. She is petite all over, too, but Britney has been very slim and still had the problem. It just became more evident for larger public after she got rid of her hair.

I think that the attraction system should be fully customisable by the player. I als want that to include which horoscope signs, if any the person is attracted to. My Hippy sim might think superstitiously that Pisces are the true mach for her Aquarian self, while my CEO sim doesn't get attracted by signs at all, but high-profile job counts.

Though I would really love the attraction system to make some sort of sense (wishful thinking, I know) I kind of love it now that I turned off automatically answering the phone You want to send me gifts? Great, I love free stuff! You think I'm hot? Super! Now excuse me as I ignore you... I'm guessing one of my billions of mods has fixed the omniplant thing so when I get gifts I just decorate my house. Love that.

Works especially well in my head playing my simself since she's absent-minded. She'd never remember who these people are anyway LOL

Haha, thank God for mods! I think it was Seasons the love letters and phonecalls came in with, right? It made a 16 sim household a bit unplayable. ;/ I have no idea if this is related to the atrraction system, but I'm currently looking for a way to turn flower-giving spam off... they just won't stop!

use this mod: http://www.modthesims.info/d/444855

I use this mod by Fentonparkninja http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=492102 , which re tunes the attraction system so that every Sim in town isn't trying to date your (married/engaged/going steady) Sim. I was really getting tired of all of the phone calls and love letters I was getting, often from the same Sim over and over and over again. In real life that would be considered harassment! Since installing Fenton's mod, I hardly ever get phone calls and love letters, which is just how I want it. He has four flavors of the mod to choose from - I use the Variety Attraction version.

I agree that we should be able to pick what our Sims are attracted to, or at least it should be based on their traits. Now wouldn't that be a cool EP.

Probably won't be a cool EP given that EA dropped development for TS3 over a year ago. I know, time flies, just like this necro'd thread that's 2 years old.

And you do know you can make your sim date whoever you want to, right? So if you think your sim should be attracted to a certain person with certain traits, that's perfectly OK. You won't break anything.

This one should help:
