- Fixed German terminology for Nth Cousins 2× Removed being the same as that for Nth Cousins 1× Removed.
- Changed German terminology for Nth Cousins N× Removed to follow this scheme.
- Fixed grammatical gender for female cousins in German.
- Compressed STBL resources, which drastically reduced the size of the .package file.
- Fixed ordinals for 11 and 12 showing up as "11st" and "12nd" instead of "11th" and "12th." This applies not just to English but other languages, which have similar exceptions for 11 and 12. Also works for larger numbers whose last two digits are either of those numbers.
- Made 1st Cousins show up as "Cousins" by default for consistency in Spanish and Portuguese. This can be changed in the tuning to what it was previously.
- Fixed getting a nonexistent string for Nth Cousins 4× Removed for Spanish and Portuguese.
- Changed Spanish and Portuguese terminology for Nth Cousins N× Removed to follow this scheme.
- Changed Portuguese terms for great-great-grandparents and great-great-grandchildren to more standard terminology.
- Added Russian translations, courtesy of Sonya Kas.
- Added Italian translations; might be grammatically incorrect, but I tried to do as much research as I could on the logic for that language regarding genealogy. Feel free to contact me for things to improve.
- Fixed relations between Sims and siblings of their ancestors not showing up if the ancestors and the ancestors' siblings had no parents.
- Fixed relations between descendants of siblings without parents not showing up.
- Fixed Half-Cousins showing up as "Cousins" for when the setting "kShow1stCousinsAsCousins" was set to "True."
- Changed "Nx" to "N×" for English and "Nx" to "N-mal" for German.
- Fixed Half-Aunts/Uncles and Half-Nieces/Nephews showing up as their non-half versions.
- Suppressed an unanticipated relation showing up for a Sim who was partnered with but not married to a sibling of another Sim.
- Added French, Spanish, Portuguese, and German translations; might be grammatically incorrect, but I tried to do as much research as I could on the logic for those languages regarding genealogy. Feel free to contact me for things to improve.
- Improved prioritization of the closest family relation some more.
- Made the method for getting the family relation string return earlier if the genealogies being compared are of the same Sim.
- Improved prioritization for showing the closest family relation between two Sims.
- Made tuning more flexible.
Expands the genealogy by adding the following types of family relations to the game:
- Great × N Grandparent/Grandchild (e.g., Great-Great-Grandfather)
- Nth Cousin (e.g., 2nd Cousin)
- Nth Cousin N× Removed (e.g., 2nd Cousin 1× Removed)
- Nth Half-Cousin (e.g., 2nd Half-Cousin)
- Nth Half-Cousin N× Removed (e.g., 2nd Half-Cousin 1× Removed)
- Half-Aunt/Uncle
- Half-Niece/Nephew
- Great × N Aunt/Uncle (e.g., Great-Uncle, Great-Great-Uncle, etc.)
- Great × N Niece/Nephew (e.g., Great-Nephew, Great-Great-Nephew, etc.)
- Great × N Half-Aunt/Uncle (e.g., Great-Half-Uncle, Great-Great-Half-Uncle, etc.)
- Great × N Half-Niece/Nephew (e.g., Great-Half-Nephew, Great-Great-Half-Nephew, etc.)
This scales infinitely or up to a limit set in the tuning (for example, a Sim could have a 5th Half-Cousin 4× Removed).
Additionally, relation names for SimBots follow the same scheme as those for Plumbots (for example, a SimBot's creator is now referred to as "Creator" instead of "Mother" or "Father"). This can be reverted in the tuning.
Also allows adding restrictions to romance between Sims the player feels are too closely related. By default, the restrictions regarding romantic interactions between Sims are the same as EA's.
Settings regarding romantic interactions and what types of relations can be shown can be changed by using s3pe to edit the "Tuning" _XML resource in the mod's .package file, or by using NRaas' Retuner to change the settings under General > By Tunable XML > Sims3.Gameplay.Destrospean.
