This user has the following games installed:

Sims 2, University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, Free Time, Apartment Life
Default Help With the Abbreviation Used In ACR2.0 (Autonomous Casual Romance) mod
In my game the romance behavior between my townies are too casual - everyone literally have their first kiss when they first met! So I went into the "Required Relationship" settings, hoping to tune it to my liking.

However I'm stuck figuring out what the abbreviations mean, and I can't find explanations anywhere. The documentation for ACR version 1 seems not applicable for ACR2.0, as these parameters are never mentioned. These are the abbreviations that confused me in SimPE as well as in-game: SimPE (Tuning-Casual Romance-Accept)
- Rel Pen Rom
- Rel Pen Pop
- Rel Pen Fam
- Rel Pen Kno
- Rel Pen For
- Rel Pen Ple
- Rel Pen Che
- Rel Bon None

In-game/SimPE (Tuning-Casual Romance-Global Defaults)
- Rom
- Pop
- Fam
- Kno
- For

Any help is appreciated!

You don't need to tune anything in SimPE, you can tune everything in the game. The in-game abbreviations are just the first three letters of the six aspirations.

Thanks for the info! I'm trying to change the values for defaults in SimPE so that I don't have to change them every time I start a new game (also the document in ACR1.0 stated that it can be done for certain files, so that's what I do).

Thanks again!

Exactly how many new hoods are you planning to start?

Quite frequently I'd say, especially when I'm setting up one that suits my taste mostly. Now I've just started yet another new game after the changes to ACR (in my previous save all the dormies already had their first kiss on the first 2 days (9 person in my dorm, 8 autonomously first kissed, some of them sort of "hi" then just kissed). On another instance, my single sim (Family asp) just greeted a walkby (Pleasure asp) to fulfil her social needs, the walkby then immediately had first kiss with my sim and she just let him. I think that's too much :')

I edited the values so now everyone at least chat a little & be more familiarized to each others before romancing.
