sims 4 Devious Desires (Old)

[Buddy Man]

I'm having a ton of problems right now with DD. When I load my save my notifications get spammed telling me there is an error and its been sent to DeviousDesires_5.16_Exceptions. I can't get any sims to actually start any kind of romance. The tabs in the lower right corner (simiology, career, needs etc) are all buggy and either don't open or display weird information. I've gone through and updated everything I could think of but I might be missing something. I used this before back in 2022-3 but took a break and now Sims is looking really bad. I don't really run any other mods besides this. Any ideas what is wrong?

Current version of DD is v5.24

So that is a very interesting point, because I got and installed 5.24 but the error is listing 5.16. Somehow 5.16 is overwriting 5.24 and I'm not sure where the files could be. I thought I deleted all DD files before installing 5.24 but its still listing 5.16 in the mod logs. And idea where else I should be looking?

Use Control Menu for this feature. This feature would make zero sense in a sex mod.

Yes. If you are running into an issue with "pink underwear", then it isn't DD, it is a bad lower body selection you have. Since authors don't always make their CAS Parts correctly.

In the current pre release, hybrids get ears, tails, horns, and feathres, depending on the type of hybrid they are.

no i mean like remove them completely  rather than have to take it off off each sim individually

Ok, I erased the whole folder then added mods back in until things finally fell back into place.

Just in case, the reason for the interface getting messed up was UI Cheats Extension wasn't up to date.

However, now whenever I try to have sex the male's penis is now floating in mid air. I attached a pic showing it. What do I need to do to fix that?

You got a conflicting rig installed. The best way to install DD is to install it by itself, then add other mods on top of it.

The pink underwear is a problem with whatever CAS part they have selected for their penis or vagina or whatever. You should know which penis or vagina it is in the Body Selector. SHIFT+CLICK on Sim -> Equipment -> Select Body Parts

I'm having an issue with DD Pets, there are animations available, it just doesn't want to cooperate... Claiming there are no available animations when there clearly are, or am I doing something wrong?

I absolutely love this mod and have used it for quite awhile, however Im recently having a weird issue. With this mod installed, whenever I try to start a new game or load a game, I get a blank white screen before the game closes itself out. Ive tried running it alone without any other mods just incase another mod was the issue, but Im still getting the same outcome. 

[Ender Shadowborne]

Another thing, the link to the wiki seems to not be valid anymore, my AV blocked the connection, so... yea

 

EDIT: I seem to have used an older link and not one on Page 1, so my bad

First try repairing the game. There might be a file messed up.

What does the message "No nearby location with animations found" mean? I attempted to have my male Sim engage with his female horse, which he has done before, but I received this in-game notification. After placing a bale of hay and clicking on it, I was given the option to have sex, and a selection menu appeared. I chose the horse, but instead of moving, he just stood there and masturbated. Additionally, after downloading and installing The Sims 4 Community Library, which is a required mod, I received a message about two files named "sims4communitylib.ts4script." It seems this mod already includes "sims4communitylib.ts4script" and "sims4communitylib.package" in a "Requirements" folder, so I'm unsure which files to keep. When I command my Sim to engage with the horse, he doesn't move at all. I get a notification saying he's not close enough, but when I move him next to the horse, it says "No nearby location with animations found." I'm confused because I have three sets of animations from that mod, and it includes poses, so this message is puzzling.

I have a similar issue!

you don't need additional copies of the "requirements" DD includes the updated versions that work with DD. Same creator. As for the no animations part. I had the same issue. The mod broke, i just closed the game and reloaded my save then the mod worked. if not remove DD and all files and reinstall. Also WW and MCC do not play nice with DD. hope that helps

Great. 

[Ender Shadowborne]

Fantastic...

[RitualClarity]

Devious Desires works perfectly fine.  I finally updated my game. No noticable issues for me.

[Ender Shadowborne]

Well not for me and Red here...

[RitualClarity]

Most every problem being mentioned here clearly shows that the poster doesn't read instructions and/or follow basic rules for Sims4 mod installation. That's the reason your game doesn't work. 

I love it (scarcasm) especally when they claim the mod is broken. Wow, the adaucity that some rando from the web has the knowlege to determine that a mod doesn't work while posting stupid question that have the answer right in the mod's authors original post. (looking at the simscommunitylab mod question)

Have fun trying to figure it out without actually reading the authors OP.

I love how you assume that we did something wrong with instillation. Forget that the mod was working just fine one day and the next it's not working. no changes except the sims updating. maybe it is a mod conflict that got broken on an update? However instead of coming up with helpful information, you decide to belittle other players who  are less experience in trouble shooting their issue. Ether help people or just keep your comments to yourself.

Your game doesn't work. It works for those that followed the installation instuctions and basic Sims 4 modding processees. Your game isn't some special Unicorn. It doesn't work, = you fucked up somewhere. Go back and double check what you did.

yep...  Can be a major issue which you seem to ignore. Along with the entire mod description it seems.

I have helped you. Posting questions that have the dam answer in mod description is a clear sign that you aren't reading and using basic common sense and sincere attempt to correct and find the answers. Answers that are already avaialble. This tells those that have more advanced understanding of what is going on, that you are a waste of time to support. I have provided support and even outright testing of mods for various games for more than 13 years. I've learned that people that can't be assed to READ can't be helped. The support person would go around and around and around for days only to find out some basic thing that the person needing support states WAS INSTALLED CORRECTLY, was fucked up.

Instead come to the mod authors thread and state the mod is broke.  You aren't going to get shit with that response/action. At least not here. Here we expect a minimum amount of effort which is reading and undrstanding the mod description. Along with a basic understanding on how to mod Sims 4.

FYI. I will continue to tell you and anyone else that can't be bothered to read the mod description to read it. I will continue to tell those that don't seem to know the most basic process of modding and maintaining their Sims game to watch some Youtube videos on how to do this. 

You want to post questions? Get useful answers? Post useful, detailed questions that has information that hasn't been given in the mod description. Detailed information regarding what is happening. Can it be repeated.

someone needs a hug

[Ender Shadowborne]

I think you mean they need a timeout...

EDIT: That's besides the point though... Instead of criticizing us and whining about us asking for help, why not do the sensible thing and actually OFFER more help instead of just saying "Womp womp, that's your problem, not mine, I refuse to help any further" There are people who need ACTUAL help, even after following the installation instructions TO THE LETTER, may I add! And you're just basically telling us to fuck off and cry about it, well we have and this is how you cause people to go to the competition despite said competition having less features.

I have a question. I dragged all the folders into the Sims 4 mod's folder. Do the .txt files matter? Will they slow down the game if i have them for potentially hundreds of mods (eventually  that is) Should I delete them to keep the mod's folder cleaner. 

UPDATE:

It is installed and working.  I have another question. It states that the modules are optional. I would like to remove the penis milking. It is distracting for my game play. Which module is that?  As well as the pet stuff. Not interested in that.

-------- DDModules --------

Pick and choose the modules you wish to use the features of! They are all optional.

my installation if it helps someone. The animations are by artist.

the modules

never mind. I think I found the modules. I assume since the instructions state to keep the package and script of the same name together I would remove both at the same time. 

 

Does anyone know where information on the individual modules are. What they do etc. 

P.S. Sorry for all the empty spoilers and other issues with my post. I'm learning the site.
