Oh, you REALLY mean it when you say it'll be up soon, hehe!

I have readed somewhere what removing some invisible memories and mainly removing tokens, could seriously damage your neighborhood and/or the single lot.
Have you some report about this?

Ice

Tokens, yes, you'd better not touch those. Invisible memories? Nah, after all most are created when one sim gossips to another or when a sim witnesses something that's happening nearby. Maybe those regarding family members might be prudent to keep, but you can safely burninate the rest.

As long as you don't remove the original memory that they reference first, it should be ok. Invisible memories, if I'm not mistaken, are linked to the original, real memory. If that one gets deleted, and then the invisible one gets accessed for some reason and the game tries to reference the original one, this could cause an error.

That's why trying to clean up/delete memories can be a messy affair. If you ever delete a 'real' memory, then you have to make sure you delete all the other ones that reference it, which could be on any sim. These get passed along via gossip or by witnesses events and what not, so you never which sims, including townies, might have memories of those events.

Ste

Im scare of installing this..

I have been deleting the furious/furious reverse tokens since ep2 and haven't had any problems what so ever, & the invisible memories I have been deleting even longer since doing that it's got rid of a lot of those wavy lines when my Sims gossip.

Does this (or will it) remove burnt food memories? Boringest gossip ever...

No this version doesn't I'll have to look with simpe to get the id of those memories so I can add them to the next version.

Nice! Thanks a lot!

hhmm I'll test this tonight.

Just out of curiousity, how much does the paint cost?

It costs $35.00 plus shipping & handling & taxes & intrest, lol

Very cheap for all that it is doing, a really good investment.  

Would a cheque of 100,00$ dated of April 14, 2007 do the job? (this include, shipping, handling, taxes and should cover the interest for a year) of course it will be made under the name of Squinge (try to cash-it now!) hehehe

Could you explain me what  are "sophomore" and "dean'slist" memories, please?

They are both college memories completed sophomore year & made the deans list.

Hi Squinge!
I'm ressurrecting this thread because I need something desperatedly.
I would like to count and delete the CAS memories Met/had very first kiss/kissed unknown. Presently I have a mod to clear off all memories of new Sims that didn't live more than those memories. It is brain-dead idiot that a Sim start as Adult with no knowledgement at all but had kissed an unknown :(
Being that I cannot create a child or Teen in CAS then I would like my CAS adult to start really from memory zero, but sometimes the game includes those stupid memories if I send a Townie or NPC to college, then I cannot use my mod any longer.
Thanks.

Me too...
It the first (really) time that I try a romance-sim and iI dont done well... So I transfert the house occupied by the family in the lot catalog to break all relations links... But now I have a Big -Buggy memory, my sim have the visible memory to meet himself and the wants to "fall in love with himself", "flirt with himself" and even "woohoo himself"... How can it be possible...
So, is there a way with your hack or an other to remove all the memories (except maybe all for studient and graduation) and refresh all the wants...
Thanks to think of that.

This version will remove all of the met sim memories from your sims, & I will get back to you asap about adding the other options to the next version:)

richy61,
My easy explanation for the phenomen you report, is that I suppose that memories are kept IN THE HOUSE. The old problem issued when someone transfer a family from one ngbh to another (remember?), when copies of unlinked Sims follow together. When you just transfer your family to the bin, it is still duplicating the Sim self. Maybe you then don't get a physical Sim but an internal memory of a doublee. This is what I think it causes those wishes.
There must be two copies of the same Sim and of course, it will be his best match, the reason for the wishes.

For Squinge, yes I use you paint and remove all visible memories with no effects on the wans. I also try the aspiration-ajustor from the Inseminator package but the 6 slots wants roll the same each time.

For XPTL297, not really cause my sim have this strange memorie and wants before the transfert. I think the cause is that I make a sort of "self-portrait" scene-paint in a community lot... It was the last action before I leave my downtown business and after the arrival in the residential house the memories and the wants appear..

If you go into SimPE and look at your sims relationships then remove the relationship to himself that should remove those wants:)

Hi Squinge,
No more funny wants... After the first "become friend" with a female-sim all the wants became normals, no more wants with himself all became romantics wants with this female-sim... It's now 5 simday and all work fine...
Maybe the game don't know what to do with an empty memorie sim?

That may be but I still think your sim may have met himself before maxis fixed that bug but I think it's still a bug because when I look at my sims relationships in SimPE they have always met themself & I have to remove it in SimPE:)

Also I'm thinking it's a maxis bug still present.
And I think it's related to something with the own business, because I never had some "self-memories" with staff's sims or unemployed sims but only with sims that have an own business lot.

Rectification for the apparent cause of the bug...

I have an another friendship aspiration sim and now he has the same memory ( "meet myself" and wants to "make myself friend")...
That's appear after than I use my controlable sim to be barman in my dowtown community business. So I retry with the romance sim (the one that I've erase the memory) and the same memory appear again...

There is (or was) a bug with the Insimenator option "Make me friends with everyone here" or something alike.
The Sim ends up making friend to himself too.
It also can be caused by a very undefined inclusion of an empty memory.
If there's anywhere an empty memory such as "Burnt "unknown"! or anything alike, the Sim will start to have wishes about self.

Hi Squinge!
I'm back to ask if you have any alternative to include the memory "Went to College" to satisfy this wish.
I'm intending to stop using Uni at all, it is causing too many issues.
I decided to use only Christian-Lov fake diploma and have a need to include the "Went to College" memory.

Thanks.

There is a fix for that problem right here:click here (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=4616.0)

Squinge for president! Come over to Germany, we need some coool ppl

Excellent stuff, Squinge.

Can't wait to test this one out and correct my sims' memories.

Can it eradicate "First Ever Woohoo" as well? I hate that one, because it's often not true. When I upgraded to the first EP(Uni), I found that sims who'd already Woohoo'd got one of these memories the next time they did it. I'm guessing the Uni EP tells the game to check if they've got a prior "First Woohoo" memory, but NOT any prior Woohoos. Bit of an oversite, IMHO.

And what's more, if you CAS a family that has parents WITH their kids, the game doesn't give them(the partents) Woohoo memories at the outset, but instead grants them "First Ever" the next time they do.

It's crazy.

No chance of a Hack that prevents "First Ever Woohoo" from ever happening again, I suppose?

In any case, it'll be nice to have a play with this little item.

Thanks. :)

Adam.

I will try adding that memory to the next version, it may be possible to prevent that memory from being created, I will check into it & get back to you :)

Aye, you cracked it with the "Met Sim" memory. My memory logs are no longer troubled by it occurring any longer. :D Hopefully with this hack I can get rid of the memories containing "Subject", which are held by those sims I had to salvage from my broken Neighborhood.

As an amusing and embarrassing aside, I spent ages looking for this painting in my Catalogue yesterday(and was going to post here today, saying I thought there might be a bug), only to find today that I never unzipped it and installed it before running the game. Doh!!

I'll test it today. :D

It will get rid of all of them, I was happy to be able to delete those too.  You have to do this manually with all the sims but it does worth the effort. :)

May I suggest you also add Squinge's "no duplicate memories" and "no met subject" mods.  Second one will prevent sims from having those memory created the second you add it in the game. :)

I almost gave up my Romance Sim because of the thousands of "met ..." memories. Thanks!

Squinge, will it be possible one day to completely clean out visible and invisible memories of sims who you want to safely put in another neighourhood? I have lots of favourite simmies that I want to rescue from my old Pleasantview which I never play anymore but am scared to put them in a new neighbourhood for fear of messing up the memory markers of everyone.

You can clone a sim you have using SimPe, I don't know exactly how but if you request for help in the general help section of this site, I am sure someone tell you how or link you to a tutorial on how to do this.

I hate spamming with just a thank you, but that's all I can really offer here (besides a request for more information).  I grabbed the EP4 version of no more met subject memories but for those sims that didn't benefit from it... well, I'm really appreciative.  This has nicely cleaned out those lousy (and stupid) memories.

Also, is there a token FAQ somewhere?  As I was cleaning out the memories of my sims I came across one with a furious token and wondered what it was... didn't delete it, but could have if I wanted to.  Just curious what these do and what happens if I delete them.

Can you please add on to this,

remove had a puppie/kitty
(puppy/kitty) was added to the family,
fire! and, burgular memories please?

I added all the gossip memories below:
 
joined the family, got caught cheating, pet met someone, had a baby, pet had a baby.

Oh I am soooo glad you are back.  I totally missed your mods and my sanity.

Is this mod okay for Apartment Life or no?

Thanks! :worship:

Yes it is :)
