A mod for The Sims 4 records the First Times your sims experience something big, and remains for their entire life. Think of it as a 'list of major things Sim has ever done / lived' that can also show with whom, grant special moodlets and relationship statuses, and a bit more!

How It Works

Your Sims will* automatically acquire memories / milestones* when they experience something marking for the very first time ever.

A little ‘click’ and special effect plays when a memory is acquired. A special moodlet will also show.

1. You are able to open your sim’s memory profile to quickly visualize what marking events have happened in their life.
The memories appear in CHRONOLOGICAL order.

2. You are able to open your sim’s memory profile to quickly visualize what marking 'first time' events have happened in their life.
The memories of those 'first times' appear in CHRONOLOGICAL order.
Only the 'first time' appears in the panel. But the panel holds information about subsequent happenings too, and who things happened with, including who was first, etc. More on this below.

When in that window, clicking a Sim will give you some choices:

3. Sims might react differently to things happening for the first time VS later in life.
At the moment, this translates as additional moodlets – for example, a Sim will get a different moodlet for being fired the first time and for being fire one more time.




[list][*]There are social bunny posts, for those who have High School Years (the pack is NOT a requirement for this mod, but if you don’t have it, of course you won’t have the social bunny posts).

As you can see above, some memories are associated with mods. Here are the mods in question:

  • LGBTQIA: gender and orientation Overhaul, by me. You can find it on MTS.

  • Relationship and Pregnancy Overhaul, by me. On my Patreon for free of course.

  • Rambunctious Religions, also by me, also on Patreon.

Bonus Features

  • On first install, the mod will retroactively add to your sims the 'first time' milestones / memories it can deduct from your Sim’s relationships, etc. It can RETROACTIVELY deduct ONLY CERTAIN STUFF, since a lot of it depends on custom code in the mod itself, so, a lot of it can only be properly acquired after the mod is installed.NOTE: WHEN RETROACTIVE, the mod has no idea when each thing happened, so, the retroactive stuff is added in an order that is always the same one. WHEN RETROACTIVE only, it also has no idea who as fought with, or kissed / woohoo'd with first.
  • There is also a menu under ‘actions’ to cheat-add or cheat-remove milestones /memories.

  • There is a Social Interaction to ask other Sims about their memories / milestones. It won’t tell you everything though.
  • If you shift + click on another Sim, you will see a cheat to view their Memory Panel.
  • When a Sim kisses / woohoo’s for the 1st time in their life, or kisses someone for the fits time, they will have a special additional status with that sim:


What's Next?!

  • I want to add More Impact for milestones / memories! Also More social Interactions! But I must rest my hands at the moment.
  • More stuff to be displayed in the panel. I’m working on listing and displaying all careers a Sim has ever had[/*]
  • More memories can and probably will be added later, share your suggestions if you want!
  • Integration of / with other mods is possible, but requires cooperation between the other modder and I.

Compatibility

  • If you use my Relationship & Pregnancy Overhaul mod and have its August version, YOU MUST RE-DOWNLOAD IT FIRST as it was updated to work with this mod.**

Complete Incompatibility

  • No known full incompatibilities.

Partial Incompatibility

  • NO known partial incompatibility.

Override Information

  • NO overrides used.

BG Compatible

What happens if you don't have [insert pack name]?

If a resource from such pack is required for a memory to trigger, you will not have access to it via gameplay because you do not have the required pack. This is all handled through script and therefore there is no need for alternate file versions etc.

Special Thanks To!

  • Thanks to BlackCherry and Sheila for their vital testing.
  • Thanks to Frankk, Lot51 and TwelthDoctor1 for their modding tools.
  • Thanks again to Frankk for helping with the chronology thing!

Changelog

Last Updated: Dec. 5th - 6th.

Dec 6

  • Changed how university degrees are handled.

Dec. 5: v1.5

Serious Behind-The-Scenes Rework + On-the-stage Additions_This update was a_ substantial procedure, so, stuff could have gone amiss in minor ways - please report if you notice anything not quite right!!!

  • I've basically remade most of the mod's code, to make it better, lighter and make future integrations a hint easier.
  • More nuance has been added, now marriages are considered differently from bf/gf type relationship
  • About 10 new memories, bringing the total to +- 80 for now.
  • New moodlets
  • New social bunny posts
  • Revamped the interaction to ask others about memories; now their response depends on friendship level. They also respond in chronological order.
  • New cheat to 'remove all memories' in one click _(note that this is intended for you to re-add the memories in a different order upon retroactive install, for example. If you 'forget' some memories, the mod might still re-add them because it reads that the sim would have had them).
  • Allowed Toddlers to view their (very scarce) memories, too- Fixed issue with coworker's profiles not opening from memory panel
  • Probably more that I didn't write down.
