Current Version: 0.5

Now it's finally time to share my first big mod. I have worked on this mod on and off in half a year I think. Once I did redo it completely to become a better version of itself. It has been a journey and I have learned so much on the way. I am still very nervous about letting it run out to the world free, maybe with some bugs I haven't yet found, or with other issues whatever they might be.

So this version is supposed to be a test version. It might contain some issues, and if you find any please let me know. You can write me a private message here to begin with. I tried to create a Tumblr also, but I was not satisfied how it worked, so I will try figure out something else, if it seems to be needed.

This mod adds some different perfumes to the game with different scent accords that Sims might like or dislike. Sims can use the perfumes in some different ways and react in some different ways on the fragrance. Some are allergic, some will love the perfumes while others might hate them, and all the things in between, all based on what they think about the accords in the used perfume. While your sim might feel confident when using their favorite perfume, their significant other may really dislike this perfume and be uncomfortable arround them when they use it. More details about what it includes, required packs, installation instructions and upcoming features are mentioned below. Also have a look at the images for examples.

Insallation:

Place the folder "SweetLilja_PerfumeMod_v0.5" (with all the files in it) directly in your Mods-folder (because of the script files that cant go deeper than one folder, and that one folder would be mine)
Dont separate the mods making them lay everywhere in your folder (because when the update come I might have been changed the structure of the files and then you need to remove the whole folder and replacing it with a new one)

Issues:

I have seen there is an option on the perfume bottle that say "Put away" sometimes when playing as a child, it does not work. I will need til look in to that.
I got an exception on a buff, also when playing as a child, have only seen it once and it did not seem to create any damage, but I will try to solve this until next release.

Thanks:

I wanna say thank you to all other modders who have helped me out on the way, mostly on the discord server Creator Musings, but also in some other places. You must know who you are and you are all so awesome! (I do not dare trying to mention everyone, in case I forget someone and may make that person hurt feel bad.) But an extra special big thank you to MizoreYukii who have helped me out so many times when I was stuck. Without your help I am sure I would not have come this far with the mod, or maybe even have given up.

I am also grateful for KawaiiStacie who had found the hidden animation for using perfume in the game. Without it I would had needed to create my own animation, and it wouldn't have looked nice at all and would have taken much more time.
