Update 1/26: Added English Strings to all languages, included Portuguese translation
Update 1.14.25: Various fixes for some under the hood stuff. Removed "Strong" flavor. If you used that one be sure to delete it on updating. Fixed shower option not showing up when Energized. "Speedy Shower" now shows up, but still retains the random shower behavior.

Major Update 7.1.25: No longer an override, now requires Lot51 Core Library.

This mod makes every shower your sim takes have a random chance of applying a buff, instead of letting you choose which buff you want by taking different types of showers- because I like my game to be harder than normal, and I don't think it makes a lot of sense that I can just CHOOSE to be inspired by the shower.

It entirely removes the special shower options. The only actions available are your standard Take Shower and, if applicable, Sing in Shower interactions.

At the end of your shower, you'll get one of 7 buffs, each of which lasts 5 hours or until you take another shower:

Standard Shower!
-Fine Buff
-No special effects

Steamy Shower!
-Flirty Buff
-Lowers effects of Sad buffs

Shivery Shower!
-Uncomfortable Buff
-Increases effects of Angry buffs
-Outright removes Flirty buffs

Sensational Shower!
-Energized Buff
-Lowers effects of Angry buffs
-Removes Tense buffs

Smart Shower!
-Inspired Buff
-Increases effects of Confident buffs


Silly Shower!
-Playful Buff
-Lowers effects of Sad Buffs


Sad Shower...
-Sad Buff
-Lowers effects of Happy Buffs

Normally, the special shower types have effects. The Brisk Shower for example lowers the duration of Angry and Flirty buffs by cooling you down. Since these interactions are now gone, these moodlets attempt to mimic those effects. So the end result is a bit hacky and different. These buffs are also OVERRIDES to the original buffs from the original shower types.

You WILL still get moodlets for cheap, expensive, and upgraded showers!

The "Standard Shower" buff will show up about 75% of the time. There is a hidden buff preventing you from getting a new one until 5 hours have passed, so you can not re-roll your results by taking another shower right away.

REQUIRES XML INJECTOR AND LOT51 CORE LIBRARY.

Thank you to Tralfaz for the initial XMLs randomizing the buffs, and to Frankk for being my rock while the entire thing went to hell for reasons I'm not going to explain right now. This mod took me 5 hours to get working, if you can believe it!

I love this idea! I agree that it can feel like cheating to just pick a specific type of shower to have. It would be cool to have a focused option as well. Scientists can get breakthroughs in the shower, you would think they would be focused afterwards. Even a dazed one could be cool. Like the steam from the shower got to them and now they are sleepy? Angry too. Like they spent the whole shower thinking about an argument they had with someone? I know I've been there.

hi does this work with cc showers? i tried using a cc shower and couldnt get the take shower option to show up at all

waffle_mix_ins

It overrides the existing ea shower tunings. It shouldn't negatively impact a cc shower that uses those, and shouldn't even touch a cc shower that has its own. The cc shower may erroneously have put the ea tuning inside its files, which would cause a conflict. But a properly made cc shower won't have these tuning files in the package. Can you link me to it?

Hi! Is this mod compatible with Businesses & Hobbies pack that released on 3.6? This mod isnt listed on Scarlet's List.

Marie

hello! this mod doesn't seem to be working for me. could it be broken from the latest update?

waffle_mix_ins

It requires overrides of all the specific "shower type" interaction tunings. You may be using a new shower "type" that it doesnt account for. Is it on every shower or a specific one? It works in my game.

I downloaded a build that used the Almost Invisi Shower from the Highschool Years pack and I had no shower interactions whatsoever, when I took this mod out, my sim could use the shower again. I alos tried it with a similar shower from the Lovestruck Pack called Internal Wall Shower Head and had the same thing. I read the below conversation from Marie as I noticed they had the same problem however I have no mods that affect showers apart from this one. I'd appreactiate any help you can offer :-)

Was the sim Energized? I noticed an issue recently where Energized sims have no shower option, but haven't figured out what causes it.
