Word of warning for those who enjoy torturing their sims. This mod stops them from bursting into tears when beaten up

Thank you!!!! I hate seeing my sims so sad, especially when the death notifications happen between Winterfest and New Year's Eve. They just can't catch a break.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I hate it when my sim is suddenly sad, and I check out the relationships panel to find that some random acquaintance I met once and never spoke to again is dead. I Dont Care, and neither does my sim! This is exactly what I need.

SO glad I found this. Gets me so annoyed that my sims go into sad mode over someone they just bumped into and cuz they met them like once they are all broken up when they get called that that sim died. I mean really?? I said hi ONCE and now I'm all sad like this person was my best buddy? They really did that one wrong. Happy someone did something about it. :-)

Appreciate this, mate. I was going mad when my party animal sim spent almost 2 straight weeks mourning every premade adult sim in the game.

Ever since I added this, my sim that I enjoy torturing no longer cries.
I removed the mod hoping this will get him crying again, and he STILL no longer cries.

I don't know how on earth this has affected this function, but he no longer sheds a tear. Even after I removed this mod from my mods folder

I tried to reproduce this to see if the mod was involved. I couldn't but I am not sure what sort of 'torturing' you are doing. My sims still cry when I would expect them to. It would be very unlikely for this mod to cause it because I just change the values for sadness from death notifications. I don't change any of the functions with this mod. After removing this mod you should delete your cache files in the sims4 folder before restarting the game.

I wish my search had found these before I went to the effort of producing my mod. My mourning values are slightly different to those used by @flerb. I am not keen on the 5 days of being sad +4 for any death. Nonetheless, if I had known that mod was there I wouldn't have published mine. Of course, it is not about creating mods, it is about keeping them updated every month when the EA updates are released. That is the real balls ache about modding.

I don't suppose you can make a mod to make sims cry all the time when sad, and throw tantrums when angry/ enraged?

I torture my sims by keeping them in a jail, and sending another sim in there to beat him up and burn him / freeze him ( extreme violence mod and the torture & chaos mod )

Don't sweat it! More options for people to choose from. I play a long lifespan style and so I figure the death of a child sim or spouse sim should hit hard and heavy, almost incapacitating them with depression. It makes the gameplay more challenging and meaningful IMO.

Thank you, this was a major issue I had in one game save, where even sims that were only met briefly caused a 2-day sadness. It was awful.

Wonderful! If mourning was going to be part of the game, EA should have given more outlets to do so. I even created my own graveyard and still couldn't wipe this thing off my sim! Thank you so much!!

Patch V1.47 was supposed to fix the endlessly sad sims caused by mourning. The changes really didn't do much so I have updated this mod. There are 2 other reduced mourning mods available. Choose a flavour to suit.
