I put this file into my Mod folder in the "packages" file. Was that correct? Anyway, for some reason it didn't work. I invited my sim's brother over and was still unable to play catch with him, the only options listed were my actives and he was plenty close because he was actually talking to him.

sorry to hear, that is weird, really. Have you tried it with an npc inviting too?
Did you greet in addition?
Stupid question, but there is enough space to play catch?
I can play catch with relatives too.
So, I do not know whats going on.

Can you make a test save and move to another lot with your household to check if it is your home lot?

did you delete the cache files?

Yes to all of the above. My actives play catch all the time (almost too often frankly) I can't seem to get any of them to play with any visitors, regardless of their relationship. As for the cache files, I always delete those before starting any new game.

I will try to remove the file and load it again and see what happens. I didn't get the option to unzip the file, it wasn't zipped was it? I didn't think it was zipped.

No it wasn't zipped

I put all tuning and scripting mods in the Mods/Overwrites folder, the Recource.cfg must have this
Priority 1000
PackedFile "Overrides/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*/*.package"
PackedFile "Overrides/*/*/*/*/*.package"

It's rude to ignore the fact that I have already stated why this won't work. Not to toot my own horn but I believe I've proven I know how to script mod and work with the core and didn't just pull what I said out of the clouds. There is a core block that prevents lot greeted Sims from playing catch. Period. Tuning is not going to fix it. I have no idea why it works in your game. Perhaps you have another mod allowing that or they weren't truly lot greeted.

Please stop leading users on wild goose chases and suggesting to adjust tuning values when you aren't sure what they actually control. While none of those are dangerous they could lead to unintended side effects. Adjusting the ungreeted tuning value alone will allow the mail carrier and anyone walking by to venture into the yard and start pushing queue on active Sims to play catch which I am sure the OP does not desire. And nothing should be in your overrides folder except mods that the creator tells you should be there. That folder is for overriding things already in your mods folder only.

Thanks Chain_Reaction for your explanation, I really didn't mean to not trust your knowledge, but was intended to maybe find something to help.

That is making me crasy, how to find out?
So, I put out the tuning file I made and am now in my game again: I have a 50x50 homelot with plenty of space to play catch.
- I click on my lot ground and use nraas/MC/ Invite Over
- I invited: 1 homeless teenager and some sims my household are related with
- and even I put out the tuning I still can play catch with them all on my homelot

When I click the baseball or football or frisbee in my inventory to see my nrras/Retuner/general/ play catch settings,
all "allow..." options are set to true. Normally I would think this is responsible for the interaction to work, because it does in my game.

Here is a list of my mods loaded (report from Errortrap), please if you have time look over it. Is there anything which can influence that?

I tested my game now only with all NRAAS Mods and the nointro mod. All other tunings and script mods I moved out temporarily.
I cleared all Cachefiles and loaded my game. I repeated the scenario above
- I click on my lot ground and use nraas/MC/ Invite Over
- I invited: 1 homeless sim and some sims my household are related with
including the parents of my ball player sim who do not live in my active household

and even now I still can play catch with them all on my homelot
So I think it is proofed now that no other mod can cause this.

I wonder if it has something to do that I play on patch 1.67 Disc-Installation, like with the EasyCASP, which is not working for Patch1.69/Origin nor on 1.67/Steam setups. Do you think this can be the reason for it?

I cannot believe that I'm the only one being able to playing catch with all kind of sims on my homelot (but I guess the allow...Retuner Tuning, see above, has to be set to true).
