Hello,
I want to make it to where you have all games on the video games console in Sims 4 unlocked at gaming level 0. Can anyone help me with this?
Also, another thing I want to do is when playing a specific game, it could give you gaming skill and cooking skill or something if anyone knows how to do this as well?
Thank you so much whoever can help!

I checked the skill and related interactions, they don't seem to be blocked other than they only appear with the skill levels. In other words, you can just inject the interactions into the console's super affordance list with XML Injector and it should work, or override the console tuning if you don't care about conflicts. The skill and it's list of locked games is in 339bc5bd!00000000!0000000000004148.statistic_Skill_AdultMajor_VideoGaming.statistic.xml. For certain games they do have tests, like the e882d22f!00000000!0000000000008299.computer_Livestream_MariaSisters.interaction.xml has a career test, so you will probably need to clone the interaction and remove the test, or again, if you don't care about conflicts then just delete the test. For the cooking/gaming skill, just add or inject a loot into the appropriate interaction and make it increase the skill of choice. These tutorials here should help a tiny bit, but won't get you all the way: How to Unlock Interactions: www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-unlock-38446873Making Loots: www.patreon.com/posts/tutorial-lets-31911223More resources: TuningScarlet's Beginner tutorials (starting on page 2): www.simsvip.com/category/the-sims-4/how-to-create-a-mod/page/2/Zer0's tutorials (for beginners and beginning intermediate, covers social interactions, buffs, and more): www.patreon.com/posts/tutorials-35031545How to Start a Custom Tuning File: www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-start-38023976How to Add Custom Icons to Your Mod: www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-add-icons-42171247And then you need the TDESCs and TDESC Browser as it helps you understand how files are built and what each thing does. Zer0’s tutorials linked above have 3 different tutorials on how to use the TDESC, so make sure to read them to understand how TDESCs work.

File Finder is very useful and highly recommended, even if you don’t use the XML Extractor for modding. modthesims.info/d/563256/xml-extractor-for-the-sims-4.htmlTuning Error Notifier is to help you make sure you don’t make mistakes. scumbumbomods.com/tuning-error-notifier/There are tools that handle injecting for you for common areas, so you don’t need to focus on scripting until the time is right. This includes: XML Injector: (interactions, loots, buffs to traits, reward traits, name objects, object relationships, states): scumbumbomods.com/xml-injector/Injection Tools: brainblasted.itch.io/injection-toolsAndrew’s Crafting Enabler: sims4studio.com/post/72754Mod Constructor: (not an injector, except where needed, but can be used to make interactions, buffs, traits, careers, aspirations, events, and a few others): zerbu.tumblr.com/post/181782526135/the-sims-4-mod-constructor-v4And a couple of misc others for specific areas, like Trait Tracker Injector. ScriptingWhen you are ready for Sims 4 scripting, know that there are very little tutorials and no documentation, so you have to learn through a lot of trial and error. You will need to learn Python, which is well documented and has plenty of tutorials outside of Sims 4, but it won’t help too much with Sims 4’s data.

Thank you! This is very helpful! I was able to change games on the computer to be able to be unlocked at gaming level 1, but I could not find anywhere to do it for gaming consoles games as well?

I found the interactions list in this file: 5b02819e!00000018!00000000000237d1.videoGameConsole_Console2TV_Linked.object_state.xml
And inside just one of the interactions it was referencing this testset, which is what is blocking the interaction Play Density Effect: 7df2169c!00000018!0000000000023861.testSet_VideoGameConsole_RPG.snippet.xml
You can do this two ways: either delete the test set from each interaction (probably more work), or you can delete the tests in the testset, or enter 0 for the numbers. If you search testSet_VideoGameConsole that should bring up all the relevant testset files you need to edit. Hopefully that's all of them.

Okay, that helped so much, thank you! The last thing I need to do is make playing a certain game, like party frenzy, give cooking and gaming experience. I am trying to find which file to do this, there is just so many and I am new to modding.
I greatly appreciate all of the help you have given me so far!!!
