Help Modding Existing Lifetime Wish?

Post by t888 » March 7th, 2016, 9:58 pm

I'm revamping existing EA Careers and one one I changed skills required to instead include more logical ones from expansion packs which would also necessitate a change in the traits that are likely to roll the Lifetime wish for this career. Problem is I saw the file regarding which traits are used to roll out the Lifetime Wishes possibilities when you select the Sim's traits in CAS but I can't remember its name. I've searched for it again but just can't find it as I can't remember. Can someone please help me find the right file? Just tell me the name and whether its under any of the FullBuild (0-2), DeltaBuild (0-2), or GameplayData files and I'll do the work.
The world calls for graphics/art work, and I answer. So, can I count on you to call me up for service?

Given the amount of traffic Chatterbox sees and the fact that your post has only been viewed just over 30 times thus far, the number of people who have seen it and who are qualified to answer your question is likely very close to none. A bump after two days is fine, but please do be patient with us.

In the GameplayData package look for the "CAS Major Dream Feeder" DMTR files. There should be one for the base game and separate ones for each expansion pack that introduces a wish.

The wishes aren't listed by name though, try searching through the DreamAndPromisesNodes XML for the wish and copy its <Id> number. Then open the CAS Major Dream Feeder EP(expansion pack number here) DMTR resource in Notepad or wtv and CTRL+F to search for the number you copied (this time it'll be the wish's <PrototypeId> value)
