- With several new mechanics and systems this beginner's guide can get rather lengthy so it's recommended to go trough it step-by-step, trying to get familiar with one activity before coming back to read about the next. Each topic covers a different area of the game, with general tips reserved for users already familiar with most of the mod's mechanics but wanting to check something they might have missed. Whenever a specific subject/mechanic is mentioned it will be
$\textcolor{yellow}{\text{color coded}}$ (e.g.$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{Music}}$ and$\textcolor{purple}{\text{Disco}}$ ). This guide is meant to be used as an introduction to the mod and in no way depicts all the content present in it.

New
$\textcolor{green}{\text{positive}}$ and$\textcolor{red}{\text{negative}}$ traits can be selected like$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{Virtuoso}}$ ,$\textcolor{gold}{\text{Neatfreak}}$ and$\textcolor{lightgreen}{\text{Disciplined}}$ . It's recommended to avoid picking any of the new$\textcolor{red}{\text{negative}}$ traits until you're more familiar with the mod's systems. -
Picking any of the new
$\textcolor{green}{\text{positive}}$ traits is usually a no-brainer and will generally make your experience with the mod easier by giving faster experience, better mood gain and more bonuses for the new activities, with the exception of game-changing traits like$\textcolor{lightgreen}{\text{Disciplined}}$ which are best avoided at first as they can drastically change how the character interacts with the mod's mechanics. -
$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{Virtuoso}}$ makes your character better with$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{playing musical instruments}}$ and$\textcolor{purple}{\text{entertaining at the dj booth}}$ , they'll level up the$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{Music skill}}$ faster, get more enjoyment from music-related activities (except$\textcolor{purple}{\text{dancing}}$ ), make fewer mistakes while performing and are the best at improving the mood of other characters around them (as long as the listener isn't$\textcolor{lightblue}{\text{Tone-Deaf}}$ ).
