How to tune Dreamer to stop dream timeout?
« on: May 12, 2016, 04:32:58 PM »
I'm using Nraas dreamer. According to this webpage:

http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Dreamer+Phase+Ten

It says that I can tune it to stop the timeout of unlocked dreams. I understand this to mean that dreams I haven't queud will stay there indefinitely.

How do I tune the mod to accomplish this?

I myself am not familiar with Nraa's Dreamer mod, you may have better luck asking how to use it over at Nraa's forum. As they have members over there that are more familiar with Nraas mods.

I have to ask to join that wiki, and the mods there have to approve it.

In the meantime, does anyone else have an answer for me?

@acerthorn

Sonshine asked over at Nraas about Dreamer for us. Here's what she sent. She also sent this via pm.

Hi Acer! Mrs Flynn referred your question about Dreamer to me. I went over to NRAAS and asked about the time out question and this was their response:

igazor

"What the referenced sentence on that page means is that such can be accomplished with an additional tuning file, to be added alongside the mod file. Further down the page, there is a link to Dreamer's optional tuning file (there is only one in this case, and it's the one wanted).
http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Dreamer+Phase+Five+Tuning"

TreyNutz

"I use the file in question to stop the timeout on dreams. Just drop in it your Mods\Packages folder to stop the timeout, remove to go back having dreams time out. It works fine, but can be tedious because you have to dismiss every wish you don't plan to fulfill and you can only see the 3-5 at a time in the scroll window. New wishes will show up in the scroll window making it impossible to see older wishes unless you dismiss enough for them to work their way to the newest 3-5 wishes. And the window doesn't automatically refresh either, I have to switch focus to another sim in the household then switch back to see any older wishes.

That being said, I routinely switch out the tuning file depending on what's going on in my game and whether my sims are getting a lot of high value wishes and whether the household is too large to make managing all the dream queues fairly tedious."

For the record, if you want to ask questions about any of the NRAAS mods, you should register at their site. That's all it requires aside from a unique name and I believe your handle is unique. They know those mods backwards and forwards and can answer pretty much any question you might have.
