As such you could have multiple profiles for DCS if you have a lot of mods in each, the outfit (clan, flight squadron) requires you to use certain mods during flight meetings, or you would like to have seperate mod sets for playing offline and online (if you use certain mods that do not pass the Integrity Check ). Profiles specify what mods you can enable/disable, so they basically specify the mods for this particular profile.

However, if you start getting really ambitious and adding in lines from other resources? Then please pay attention to those closing lines.

If you are careful and only change the amounts, then you shouldnвЂ™t run into any issues. You need to make sure when you are editing and adding lines that every line is properly punctuated. Think of those like punctuation marks or periods at the end of a sentence. Do you see how each line is closed with a / something? You can even copy/paste what you edited on your other file to this one, if you wanted.ДЄ quick little note about coding. Step 6Дouble click on the cooler_GrabDrinkAutonomously.InteractionTuning and you are going to make the same edits. Now save your file and letвЂ™s move on to the other file that controls Sims need to constantly get a drink. Do you see where it says amount and base_change? ThatвЂ™s what determines your Sims need to get a drink. The very first section is what you will be modifying. Go to your вЂњNo Auto DrinkвЂќ folder and double click on the fridge_GrabDrinkAutonomously.InteractionTuning, you may need to instruct it to use notepad ++ to open this file. Copy them (do not cut because you donвЂ™t want to do any editing to your master files!) and then paste them into the вЂњNo Auto DrinkвЂќ folder you created inside your Mods WIP folder. Select the fridge_GrabDrinkAutonomously.InteractionTuning and cooler_GrabDrinkAutonomously.InteractionTuning XML files.

You are ready to make your first mod! I donвЂ™t know about you guys but I get really annoyed when my Sims stop an action I directed them to do so they can go get a drinkвЂ¦.when they arenвЂ™t even hungry! So, letвЂ™s put a stop to that nonsense by making a вЂњno auto drinkвЂќ mod. It took almost 10 minutes for mine, so go grab something to drink or two. The process takes a fair amount of time, so be patient and leave the program alone. Click on the export button and select the folder you want to extract to (the one I labeled extracted resources for example). Do not have the вЂњuse EA namingвЂќ box checked. At the bottom of the popup window, make sure the вЂњuse sub-foldersвЂќ and вЂњextract allвЂќ boxes are checked. Begin by launching S4S and then you will click on the tools tab and select вЂњextract tuningвЂќ. Now you are going to extract those resources from Sims 4. вЂ“Patch 9_24 (this is the date of the latest patch) Below is the structure of my modding folder with the top line being the main folder: IвЂ™ll show you what mine looks like but set yours up in a way that makes sense to you.
