Take Self Photo With...

No one knows everything this mod can do. Did you know you can tune the size of your sims nostrils with this mod? I'm kidding.

Where is this in Retuner? I can't find the thing anywhere and I've tried Tunable XML or whatever it's called and I've looked under social and is it even called the same thing in Retuner? On some occasions I've found the wording to be just a bit different from game to retuner.
I'm so sick of all my Sims stopping whatever they are doing because some other Sim-hole wants a pic with them! This can happen a dozen times in the park or some group setting and it drives me up a wall. It stops all of my other interactions every time and sometimes even cancels them out! :x

All is well really, just asking and not really fuming...at least not at this moment. I've used a few expletives during gameplay, especially when I'm really trying to make some things happen with my game!

Do you have the Full EA Tuning? This xml has all tunings shown you can use in Retuner (or most of all?),

I'm thinking it's that first one because I already have the second one to false and they still drop all else to take a photo with some random person on the lot.

If I am reading this correctly (and that's a pretty big "if"), the first one is a friendly (or romantic) social interaction with another sim. Come over here and let's take our photo together. The second one is not a social interaction, it's one between a sim and their smartphone alone -- meaning there will only be one sim in the selfie photo. That''s the one that actually drives me crazy in Uni World where NPC roommates with not very refined autonomy, to put things mildly, will stay up all night repeatedly taking their own selfies until they collapse from exhaustion, starve to death, or more likely igazor gets annoyed enough to do something with these sims. Heavens forbid they should take care of their needs properly or, I don't know, crack open a book and study or something. :)

LOL Sounds like real life to me. Last time I was at a university was a couple of years ago, I never saw a single face, only the tops of kids heads as they walked down the halls or across the quad.
It was truly surreal to me, especially because I'd attended that Uni just a little over 15 years ago, (a late return to college for me btw. I was in my early 30's) but those were flip-phone days and while there were a few tops of heads, it was nothing like it is now. The other odd thing was how quiet it was. No conversations, no groups of kids chatting about the weekend, just random muffled noise from smart phones or the shuffling of feet. IDK, it felt a bit creepy really/

I hope we find a happy medium some day because I miss conversations and especially eye contact. :huh:
