Personality Discussion

[shaina @ kizmet]

Reflet made a program that you can download here called GoalDescriptorAnalyzer, which allows you to view your pet's personality values. If you use Petz 4, the first column of numbers are your pet's personality values (ignore the second column). If you use Petz 5, the second column of numbers are your pet's personality values (ignore the first column.) All of your petz have the following personality characteristics, most ranging in value from 0 to 100:

• Liveliness

• Playfulness
• Independence
• Confidence

• Naughtiness
• Acrobaticness
• Patience

• Kindness
• Nurturing
• Finickiness

• Intelligence
• Messiness
• Quirkiness

• Insanity
• Constitution
• Metabolism

• Dogginess
• LoveDestiny
• Fertility

• LoveLoyalty
• Libido
• OffspringSex

These values are unique for each pet you adopt out of the Adoption Center, even of the same breed, and they pass down genetically much in the same way as eye/coat colors, markings, etc. in that each pet carries two genes for each personality trait inherited from its parents. A puppy/kitten will phenotypically display either an exact value from one of its parents or a value in between two of its parents' trait genes (which is the number you can see in Reflet's GoalDescriptor Viewer) - meaning the offspring of two petz may display higher/lower values than its parents' phenotypical traits. Each trait is passed down separately, so the offspring can have a mixture of traits from each of its parents. 

I found that each breed seems to be limited to a set range of numbers for each of those traits. So they can be all 0 or all 100 (for example, all Sheepdogs have 0 Acrobaticness and all Alley Cats have 100 Messiness), a limited range (low is 0-20, mid is 30-70, high is 80-100), or a broad range (any number between 0-100). I made some charts of these findings:

I think it's important to note that any pet you adopt from a Unibreed file will have values of 50 for Liveliness, Playfulness, Independence, Confidence, Naughtiness, Acrobaticness, and Patience. So if, for example, you're using a Unibreed Petz 5 German Shepherd file in order to have them in your Petz 4 game, you won't be getting the intended personality values unless you adopt the pet of that breed in Petz 5 itself.

Here are some interesting observations about the personalities of the Petz 5 breeds, since prior to this research I had assumed they were all just clones of the original breeds:

• Japanese Bobtails have the same personalities as Maine Coons.

• Like Chinchilla Persians, Desert Lynx always have 100 Kindness (so they'll always have sleepy sickness). They always have 50 Insanity, and they always have low Dogginess (so they will never fetch or do tricks).

• Egyptian Mau always have 100 Acrobaticness (so none will be floofers) and 100 Nurturing.

• Honey Bears always have 0 Finickiness and 0 Intelligence. They always have 100 Dogginess, so they will always fetch and do tricks.

• Scottish Folds are the only Petz breed with low Libido.
• Japanese Bobtails and Scottish Folds will always play fetch and some may be tricksters.
  

• Pugs have the same personalities as Bulldogs.
• All German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and Pugs have high confidence and therefore love water.
• Papillons will always be afraid of water and are the only dogs with low Confidence. Papillons always have some Finickiness. They will never do tricks and some will not fetch.

• Jack Russells have a chance of having permanent fleas and sickness.
• According to Reflet, the Ubisoft breeds have the same SCPs (animations) as some of the original breeds:
  
  German Shepherd = Bulldog SCP
  Golden Retriever = Dalmatian SCP
  Jack Russell = Dachshund SCP
  Papillon = Chihuahua SCP
  Pug = Bulldog SCP
  Desert Lynx = Russian Blue SCP
  Egyptian Mau = Russian Blue SCP
  Honey Bear = Russian Blue SCP
  Japanese Bobtail = B+W Shorthair SCP
  Scottish Folds = Maine Coon SCP

Personality traits can all be edited under the YALP section of a pet file (there's a tutorial at the end of this post). Any traits you hex edit this way will NOT be passed down genetically. So if I bred two Bulldogs I hexed to have 0 Confidence, the offspring would still have 100 Confidence, which is what they carry genetically. I also tested some personalities with an SCP-switched breed, and the personalities seem based on the base pet breed rather than the SCP breed. So when I put Chihuahua SCP into a Bulldog, the Bulldog still has the Bulldog trait values.

HEXING PERSONALITY OF BREED FILES

Hexing the personality of breed files is extremely easy compared to hexing the personality of pet files!

First off, you can download a fixed "mostly flealess" Alley Cat HERE that I made using this method. Its Messiness value has been changed from always 100 to High (range of 80-100), so you'll still get Alleys with fleas and sickness occasionally, but the ones below 100 will be able to pass on their genetics even without this file in the game. Finally normal purebred Alleys without messed up personalities from the unibreed fix!

As for how to hex a breed file's personality... First, make a back up copy, then open your chosen breed file in a hex editor. Scroll down a little bit until you start seeing a bunch of "..j.j.W.." stuff. The little dot between the two Js is the value for a personality trait! The available traits differ by breed, and some breeds have more than others to edit. If a breed doesn't have a particular trait, it defaults to a personality trait value likely found in the dog/cat sprites. So for example this is the Bulldog file:



And this is the Chinchilla Persian file:



The numbers highlighted - 01 for the Bulldog and 02 for Chinchilla Persian - correspond to the personality values I found earlier for each of the breeds:
00=0
01=low
02=mid
03=high
04=50
05=100
06=any

So, for example, all you need to do is change the value from 01 to 03 for the first trait in the Bulldog file and you'll be able to adopt Bulldogs from the Adoption Center with high Liveliness!

I made this to hopefully help people know where to edit exactly:



The personality value is between the two Js, the personality trait it's editing is between the j and the W, and then there's seemingly an on/off switch that determines whether a trait is being used in that breed or not... You just need to replace the numbers found to the left with one of these values or traits:

Values:

00=0

01=low

02=mid

03=high

04=50

05=100

06=any

Traits:

00 Liveliness

01 Playfulness

02 Independence

03 Confidence

04 Naughtiness

05 Acrobaticness

06 Patience

07 Kindness

08 Nurturing

09 Finickiness

0A Intelligence

0B Messiness

0C Quirkiness

0D Insanity

0E Constitution

0F Metabolism

10 Dogginess

11 LoveDestiny

12 Fertility

13 LoveLoyalty

14 Libido

15 OffspringSex

On/Off switch:

There are some unused* traits at the bottom of the traits list in some breeds that can be used if you switch the p [70] to l [6C], so if the breed you're working on doesn't have the Insanity trait, for example, you should be able to add it by switching one of those on, then replace the trait with Insanity, and putting the value you want the breed to have. I wouldn't edit any of the first seven traits (Liveliness to Patience) to be any other trait, however, because then that trait you replaced would default to 50 just like a unibreed.
*(Reflet says these might not be 'unused' exactly, but we don't know what they do right now, if anything. Update: If I remember correctly, these have to do with predisposed breed favorites? So, for example, Poodles always like the color pink and chicken flavor.)

ddddisco on the Petz Hacking discord put together some tables showing the editable traits:
Catz
Dogz

Or you can download a text file I made containing a long list of each breed's editable traits (in order) at a glance along with their default values HERE.

Here's another breed personality tutorial at Kay's Laboratory: pikaglitch.neocities.org/breedgenes.html

This isn't everything in a breed's sprite file (there's also "Posture" or gait - like how Bulldogs, Poodles, Siamese, or B+W Shorthairs walk), something I think that pertains to eyelids (for example, how Mutts and Calicos have uneven eyelids), and I believe the perma-skinniness of Alleys might be in there somewhere too. But this should open up a lot more possibilities for breed hexing and the like!

WHAT DO THE TRAITS DO?

I personality-hexed the same Bulldog a bunch of times to study what some of the traits do. (You can download them here. This includes a typical Bulldog with the following traits: Liveliness 10, Playfulness 10, Independence 90, Confidence 100, Naughtiness 50, Acrobaticness 10, Patience 90, Kindness 90, Nurturing 90, Finickiness 0, Intelligence 50, Messiness 10, Quirkiness 0, Insanity 0, Constitution 50, Metabolism 10, Dogginess 100, LoveDestiny 1, Fertility 100, LoveLoyalty 0, Libido 33, OffspringSex 50. This is to test against dogz with extremes on either end. So there's a Messiness 100 dog and and an Insanity 100 dog, but no Quirkiness 0 because the Typical Bulldog already has 0 quirkiness. Again, all the Bulldogs are cloned from one Adoption Center dog, who had his personality hexed to be "typical". I also hex painted all of them so they don't look alike. If you don't have Catz installed you might not see some textures.) I also made two Alley Cats to study Quirkiness, one with a value of 0 and the other 100 (plus a bonus Alley with 100 Quirkiness and 100 Insanity) which you can download here. The observations I made about the traits below are mostly from studying these hexed personality petz in addition to my personal petz.

So, what do these traits do, and how do they influence a pet's behavior? These are the things some of us in the Petz Hacking & Modding discord have been trying to figure out. We're pretty sure about some of the traits, but we'd love the rest of the community's help in figuring out what the others do! You can download the personality-hexed petz above, hex your own pet's personality, or just use the personality viewer on your current petz and post whatever observations you make and what trait(s) you think the behavior might be linked to. Also, before reading the information below, I think it's important to know that the threshold for extremes in behavior is 49/50. So, for example, lower Confidence petz are any value of Confidence 49 and below, while higher Confidence petz are values 50 and above. Lower Confidence petz will shiver when they walk, higher Confidence petz will not. For the traits below, Low is any value between 0-20, Mid is between 30-70, High is between 80-100, and Any is between 0-100. Anyways, here's everything we know so far:

LIVELINESS

LOW: Bulldog, Great Dane, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Honey Bear, Persian, Siamese, Bunny, Pig

MID: German Shepherd, Sheepdog, Chinchilla Persian, Scottish Fold

HIGH: Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, Golden Retriever, Labrador, Mutt, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Russian Blue, Tabby

100: Jack Russell, Scottie

Purpose: Low liveliness petz will have sleepy eyelids even when not tired.

Possibilities: In my observations (so don't take these as 100% accurate - test them out yourself), it seemed that the energy slider decreased faster in the dog with high Liveliness. Lively dogz seemed more active and curious about toys, while low energy dogz played with their toys quietly (like chewing/licking them). The high Liveliness dog liked to bat things around and kept bringing things to play fetch, which he was pretty good at. Sometimes when the low Liveliness dog went to interact with a toy, he stopped, as if easily distracted. He also didn't seem as hyper and was a lot slower about doing things. In catz - low = Goal Cat Nap?

PLAYFULNESS

LOW: Bulldog, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Siamese, Bunny

MID: German Shepherd, Honey Bear, Scottish Fold, Pig

HIGH: Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Sheepdog, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue

100: Golden Retriever, Mutt, Scottie, Tabby

Purpose: I haven't tested catz yet, but high playfulness dogz will frequently do tricks when you take pictures of them with the camera.
Possibilities: Dogz with both extremes of the Playfulness trait play with toys, do play bows when the cursor holds a toy, etc. It might affect how often a pet chooses to play with toys or their interest in them?

INDEPENDENCE

LOW: Chihuahua, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Labrador, Mutt, Sheepdog, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Tabby, Bunny

MID: Dachshund, Jack Russell

HIGH: Bulldog, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Siamese

ANY: Pig

Purpose: 100 Independence petz will not complain (howl/yowl) when the hand is idle, while 0 Independence petz will cry for you quickly. (Note: It seems a pet needs to bond with you first before it will cry for you based on observations Meer and I made with newly adopted petz.) Amanda discovered that petz with low Independence values seem to be more eager to please their owners than those with high values and that this trait can affect show pose training. In my testing, a 100 Independence dog would often just stare at the camera when I pressed the space bar, rarely doing any actions in response to the camera clicking. However, 0 Independence dogz would often do posing and tricks in response to the camera. If you reward them, they seem to be more willing to do the action you rewarded them for and can therefore be pose trained more easily (similar to high Intelligence.)
Possibilities: I'm guessing low Independence means it's more loyal. I noticed that the low Independence dog I tested howled when the hand was idle, while the high Independence dog did its own thing, and it seemed to choose to clean itself rather than lick the hand. Low seemed more affectionate to the hand. Low may also choose to play with other petz more? Both came when called. I wonder if this might have anything to do with who comes to the pet door to play and who would rather stay in the carrying case? Amanda mentioned that her lower Independent petz wouldn't jump around as much when aligning for show pictures, but the petz I tested varied in that behavior regardless of their Independence value - so that could be related to another trait like Liveliness or Playfulness, or it could be breed-dependent (still needs more testing). In catz (maybe dogz too?), low = feels neglect more easily?

CONFIDENCE

LOW: Papillon, Orange Shorthair, Bunny

MID: Chihuahua, Dalmatian, Great Dane, Mutt, Sheepdog, Honey Bear, Persian

HIGH: Dachshund, Jack Russell, Labrador, Poodle, Scottie, Alley Cat, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Siamese, Tabby

100: Bulldog, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Pug, B+W Shorthair

ANY: Pig

Purpose: Low Confidence petz shiver like an Orange Shorthair - they're timid and skittish with new toys (they'll run away from them), and dogz are also afraid of water. High Confidence dogz like water, but this is not true for catz unfortunately. High confidence petz tend to get angry instead of scared (of the jack o'lantern, for example), while low confidence petz react with fear/sadness.
Possibilities: In catz, this might influence hunting skill?

NAUGHTINESS

LOW: Dachshund, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Scottish Fold, Bunny

MID: Pig

HIGH: Chihuahua, Poodle, Scottie, Sheepdog, Alley Cat

ANY: Bulldog, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Papillon, Pug, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Persian, Russian Blue, Siamese, Tabby

Purpose: High Naughtiness petz will do naughty things like dig/bury toys, knock things out of the supply case, mess with/trip other petz, etc. Low Naughtiness dogs don't seem to do those things - my test dog wouldn't even try to get at a toy on the fence in the backyard.
Possibilities: Could also influence them not coming when called?

ACROBATICNESS

0: Sheepdog, Bunny, Pig

LOW: Bulldog, Dachshund, Great Dane, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Honey Bear, Orange Shorthair, Persian

MID: Chihuahua, Scottie

HIGH: German Shepherd, Labrador, Mutt, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Desert Lynx, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Siamese

100: Jack Russell, Egyptian Mau

ANY: Dalmatian, Chinchilla Persian, Golden Retriever, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Tabby

Purpose: Low Acrobaticness petz are clumsy. If it's set at 0, the dog is a trotter (and in catz, a floofer). A 100 Acrobaticness dog is quite athletic - it should catch the frisbee almost every time you throw it, while 0 Acrobaticness dog will be terrible at frisbee-catching (but should still be possible with training?).
Possibilities: High Acrobaticness might control whether petz do flips and things while playing fetch, tendency to jump up on furniture/high surfaces, frequency for catz to climb walls in the playpen?

PATIENCE

LOW: Chihuahua, Dachshund, Jack Russell, Poodle, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Persian, Siamese

MID: Dalmatian, Golden Retriever, Chinchilla Persian, Scottish Fold

HIGH: Bulldog, German Shepherd, Great Dane, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Pug, Sheepdog, Calico, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Russian Blue, Tabby, Bunny

ANY: Scottie, Pig

Purpose: gyiyg found that low Patience petz will sometimes pout when trying on certain pieces of clothes. I tested this and found that a 0 Patience dog would randomly not like some clothes when trying them on, but if you tried the same article of clothing right after, they'd suddenly be fine with it. A 100 Patience dog seemed to enjoy trying on all of the items in the Clothes Closet, with no cowering whatsoever. So low Patience petz can grow impatient when trying on too many clothes, while high Patience petz won't mind how long you take choosing their outfits.
Possibilities: This trait could also have something to do with interacting with puppies/kittens, or maybe how easily frustrated/angry the pet gets, or the amount of affection it shows towards other pets? Low Patience petz might come to the pet door more often? Or it might control whether they wait at the petz door or come in immediately if it's unlocked? High patience petz might struggle less when they're picked up, while low Patience might wiggle around more? Needs further testing. Might influence knocking things out of the supply case. I think these petz seem to get angry eyelids more often, as if they get irritated at little things.

KINDNESS

LOW: Poodle, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Siamese

HIGH: Bulldog, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, Calico, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

100: Golden Retriever, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx

ANY: Chihuahua

Purpose: 100 Kindness = sleepy sickness.
Possibilities: Aside from the above, I'm not too sure about this one either. I'm guessing it could affect how well the pet gets along with other petz? Could also control the pet's tendency to give affection to the hand? Might influence knocking things out of the supply case.

NURTURING

LOW: Alley Cat, Siamese

HIGH: Bulldog, Dachshund, Dalmatian, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

100: German Shepherd, Egyptian Mau

ANY: Chihuahua

Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: This one needs further testing as well. I believe a high Nurturing pet will treat adult petz like puppies/kittens - picking them up in their mouths and carrying them around (so if you have a 100 Nurturing puppy, for example, it might carry adult petz around in its mouth). I haven't really noticed much of a difference with the behavior of either of the extreme values when out with puppies/kittens. Both get along with the babies and share toys, etc.. Maybe high Nurturing adults pay more attention to kittens/puppies? High Nurturing petz might be more likely to teach other petz things like jumping through hoops? Low nurturing petz may not always get along with puppies/kittens?

FINICKINESS

0: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Honey Bear, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, Pig

LOW: Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Tabby, Bunny

MID: Papillon

HIGH: Poodle, Siamese

Purpose: Dogz with high finickiness strut around like a Poodle. High Finickiness dogz pose normally (since Poodle-posing is controlled solely by SCP animations). Thor discovered that petz with high Finickiness stick their nose up at clothes and random food/toys. In my testing, a dog with a 100 Finickiness value hated trying on every single item in the Clothes Closet. A pet with 0 Finickiness should enjoy playing dress-up as long as its Patience level is also high! High finicky petz will often have low/almost closed eyelids. They will not do friendly interactions like GoalBondWithBuddy unless the other pet they're interacting with is also finicky. Finicky catz snub any petz that aren't finicky and will have the goal to "follow" only other finicky petz.
Possibilities: I thought high Finickiness petz might also be picky about food/toys, but the dog I tested didn't stick its nose up at any food... In fact, he ate everything I gave him, so that might be controlled by likes/dislikes and depend on the pet, or it could be overidden by another trait, or depend on the breed. I'm guessing high Finicky petz might also like to groom themselves more? That needs to be tested as well.

INTELLIGENCE

0: Sheepdog, Honey Bear

LOW: Dalmatian, Golden Retriever, Great Dane

MID: Chihuahua, Dachshund, Jack Russell, Scottie, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Tabby, Bunny

HIGH: Mutt, Poodle, Egyptian Mau, Siamese, Pig

100: Labrador, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Scottish Fold

ANY: Bulldog, German Shepherd, Papillon, Pug, Alley Cat

Purpose: This affects the reward/punishment system - low Intelligence petz take longer to train than high Intelligence petz. This also affects pose training! 100 Intelligence dogz learn after one reward (petting/a treat) that they should continue that behavior. So if you gesture for an up trick and the dogs begs and you reward him immediately, he'll do the beg behavior the next time you gesture for an up trick. A pet with 0 Intelligence takes more repetitions to learn the same behavior. There's a Switch Sprite goal where a dog will take a toy off screen and trade it with a bone or stick - it seems to be linked to high intelligence (thanks Thor for helping me narrow this one down!)

MESSINESS

LOW: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

HIGH: Jack Russell

100: Alley Cat

Purpose: 100 value Messiness results in permanent fleas and sickness.
Possibilities: This might determine how prone they are to getting fleas/sick.

QUIRKINESS

LOW: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

HIGH: Alley Cat

ANY: Chinchilla Persian

Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: This trait is kind of weird... Almost every breed has a low setting, which means it will be between 0 to 20, except most of the time individual petz are set at 0. It's quite rare to have a higher number than 0 here. Not sure what it does exactly. Only two catz, Alley Catz and Chinchilla Persians, can get higher than 20 without hexing.

INSANITY

0: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Scottish Fold, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

50: Desert Lynx

HIGH: Chinchilla Persian

Purpose: Controls how they react to the spray bottle/watering can. 100 Insanity catz will act like Chinchilla Persians when getting sprayed (they'll curl up in a ball, bang their heads on the floor, etc.) For dogz, I've only tested a 100 Confidence dog so far, and instead of getting angry, he closed his eyes and kept trying to leave through the locked door. If you have the supply case open, a dog will run into it and knock things off the shelves. xD

CONSTITUTION

LOW: Dalmatian, Golden Retriever, Sheepdog, Alley Cat, Orange Shorthair, Pig

MID: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, German Shepherd, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Papillon, Poodle, Pug, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Persian, Russian Blue, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny

HIGH: Scottie, B+W Shorthair, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Scottish Fold

Purpose: A pet with high Constitution has more energy; a pet with low Constitution has less energy. (The energy level of a pet with a higher Constitution goes down slower, so they need to sleep less. The energy level of a pet with a lower Constitution goes down faster, so they need to sleep more.)

METABOLISM

LOW: Bulldog, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Papillon, Pug, Honey Bear, Persian, Pig

MID: Dachshund, Labrador, Mutt, Poodle, Scottie, Sheepdog, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Russian Blue, Bunny

HIGH: Chihuahua, Jack Russell, Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Scottish Fold, Siamese, Tabby

Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: In my observations of the Bulldogs, the 0 Metabolism dog's energy went down quicker while fullness went down slower. 100 Metabolism was the opposite: energy went down slower and fullness decreased faster (so he'd get hungry faster). This might then control a pet's propensity to be over/underweight if it has to do with food/hunger? In some other observations, a Persian with low metabolism continued eating after 100 fullness, while a Siamese with high metabolism stopped eating after reaching 100 fullness. So low metabolism might gain weight more easily?

DOGGINESS

0 or 100: Alley Cat, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Egyptian Mau, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny

LOW: Desert Lynx

MID: Papillon

HIGH: Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Scottish Fold

100: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Poodle, Pug, Scottie, Sheepdog, Honey Bear, Pig

Purpose: So a low Dogginess trait means catlike... 0 Dogginess does not do tricks or fetch. Unfortunately, 0 Dogginess dogz won't drink milk on their own like catz, so that animation is tied to the cat SCP... High Dogginess (>50) petz will fetch, but only 100 Dogginess petz will also do tricks. All catz who fetch at the Adoption Center except for Maine Coons should be guaranteed tricksters. Some of the Maine Coons would also be tricksters, of course, but you can't tell which until you adopt them and test them.

I didn't really pay attention to the breeding traits just yet... But posting them here to be complete:

LOVEDESTINY is always 1
Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: unknown

FERTILITY is always 100
Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: Controls likelihood of a successful mating?

LOVELOYALTY is always 0
Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: Whether they will mate with one or more petz?

LIBIDO

LOW: Scottish Fold

MID: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Dachshund, Dalmatian, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Jack Russell, Labrador, Mutt, Poodle, Pug, Sheepdog, B+W Shorthair, Calico, Chinchilla Persian, Desert Lynx, Egyptian Mau, Honey Bear, Japanese Bobtail, Maine Coon, Orange Shorthair, Persian, Russian Blue, Siamese, Tabby, Bunny, Pig

HIGH: Scottie, Alley Cat

Purpose: Petz with higher libido values should have better relationships with other petz, including more potential mates.
Possibilities: Almost all petz have a mid-range Libido. Both Scotties and Alley Cats have high, while Scottish Folds have low. Might control how likely they are to mate, or the likelihood of a successful mating? gyiyg's notes on Libido:

it seems like higher values make a pet less choosy about mates, and high enough values can make one have affectionate relationships even with potential mates they would have otherwise been neutral towards or even disliked... but only if the male is the one with high libido, for some reason. i think in female pets it can make the relationship go up a grade if the other pet is male, like one they'd normally be neutral towards becoming a "buddy" relationship instead, but they don't immediately fall in love with them like high libido males seem to. it's odd!

OFFSPRINGSEX is always 50
Purpose: unknown
Possibilities: Controls gender of puppies/kittens?

HOW TO HEX EDIT AN INDIVIDUAL PET'S PERSONALITY

Follow Reloaded's tutorial here. I would say this is a very advanced tutorial, since it uses a Hex Editor and can easily corrupt your pet if you do anything wrong. In the future, I'll try to make a tutorial that's easier to understand now that we know more about personality editing.

Since Reloaded didn't know what all the trait values were or where to find them all when writing that tutorial, here's a list to help you find each trait. The number listed after the trait is the number of bytes after highlighting the p in the p f magic under YALP:

Liveliness 968

Playfulness 991

Independence 1014

Confidence 1037

Naughtiness 1060

Acrobaticness 1083

I didn't edit the other (breeding) traits, but they should be easily found if you know the value of the trait you want to edit and convert it to hex code and then find it underneath the other traits in the file.

meowlissa has a great tutorial here for 'fixing' unibreed personalities: uniquepetz.spellwork.dev/fix-personality/

UNIQUE ANIMATIONS?

And finally, I just wanted to draw attention to something Thor and I have discussed and I've also seen discussed elsewhere - the possibility that petz may have "unique" animations, or as CatCreature calls them, "Signature Moves." These animations are specific to that pet and they'll do them periodically. Not much is known about this yet—whether they're linked to the breed or to the individual pet, if every pet has a unique animation or not, and how unique they are/the frequency with which they occur. Here are some examples of a spinning animation my Siamese, Felix, frequently does:

And here are some other animations that may be unique to these petz:

^ This Chinchilla Persian looks like he's dancing, but he just did that randomly - there was no music playing. xD


I know Thor has some more to share! =D And if anyone else notices weird things their petz do, please post them!

CLUES?
So there are descriptions of all the different breeds in the Petz help files and such. I thought I'd post the more interesting stuff here to see if they can help provide clues for what the personality traits do.

ALLEY CAT

• A tough but loveable breed, the Alley Catz is adept at taking care of itself and getting along with other Petz. Alley Catz may be independent, but they will be grateful for all the love and attention you have to give them.
• Alley Catz move in like they own the place...

B+W SHORTHAIR

• The Black and White Shorthair is the athletic, hunter Catz and can often found crouched by the mouse hole ready to pounce. With a voracious appetite, the Black and White Shorthair breed has been known to steal food right from underneath another Catz's nose. The most territorial of the breedz of Catz, Black and White Shorthair Catz love to terrorize smaller Dogz and to fight with all Petz.
  
• The Black and White Shorthair is very territorial and will terrorize smaller Dogz and fight with all Catz. This breed of Catz is an excellent mouse hunter, and can often be found hanging out near the mouse hole.
• Black and White Shorthair catz are excellent hunters of the mice.

CALICO

• Catz of the Calico breed are playful and lovable and will bounce happily up to you when called. The Calico is the performer Catz and will easily learn and perform tricks. Calicos love to chase and play with the mice and in general get along well with other Catz and friendly Dogz.
• Catz of the Calico breed are playful, lovable, learn new tricks easily, and come quickly when called.
• Calicos are very playful catz and may even do tricks for treats!

CHINCHILLA PERSIAN

• Chinchilla Persians tend to be vain and a little prissy. This breed of Catz hates any activity that will mess up its glorious fur coat!
  
• Chinchilla Persians are sweethearts... with a hint of sour.

DESERT LYNX

• This breed is very intelligent and almost dog-like in personality, and although they can be reserved around strangers, they are very friendly and outgoing with people they love. They look and move very much like their wild counterparts.

EGYPTIAN MAU

• Intelligent, social, and loyal, this breed is moderately active and often expresses their happiness by chortling in a soft melodious voice and wiggling their tails at great speed while treading with their forepaws.

HONEY BEAR

• Large, "dog-like" Catz that love to cuddle and be hugged and kissed. They adore everyone and get along great with other family pets. Daily brushing is required to keep kitty looking and feeling its best.

JAPANESE BOBTAIL

• Very intelligent and affectionate, this breed adores companionship and loves to talk—well, meow—with you. They also like a good game of fetch.

MAINE COON

• This breed of Catz is fun-loving and energetic and will chase mice, Catz, and even Dogz! The boundless energy of this breed can lead to climbing on the ceiling.

ORANGE SHORTHAIR

• The Wirehair Catz is the most neurotic of all the breedz of Catz. Often dubbed the “Scaredy Catz,” the Wirehair breed is scared of any moving object, including the mice, and often jumps to the ceiling, clinging in fear. This weary Catz needs your love and attention to help calm its nerves and with constant positive reinforcement, you will quickly gain this Catz's love and trust.
• Orange Shorthairs tend to be skittish and need lots of love and care from you.

PERSIAN

• Persians are an affectionate, lazy breed of Catz. They love to lounge around all day being adored by their owner. Eating gives the Persian much pleasure, and they will eat most any food object, including the Cheese and Doggie Treatz. Not a breed to enjoy anything that requires too much exertion, such as chasing mice or running after toyz, Persians can often be found curled up sleeping next to other friendly Petz.
• Persians love to eat and will grow fat if you overfeed them!

RUSSIAN BLUE

• The Russian Blue is a dignified breed of Catz that rarely fights with other Petz unless provoked. Favorite activities of this breed include walking along the fence in the Back Yard and sitting in front of the fireplace.
  
• Russian Blues are beautiful aristocrats you'll love to own!

SCOTTISH FOLD

• With adorable curly ears, this breed has exceptionally sweet personalities. They are extremely affectionate and adapt to almost any home situation. They also get along well with dogs and other pets.

SIAMESE

• The Siamese breed of Catz are clean, finicky, and independent. The Siamese breed finds itself to be an elegant, high-class Catz who would rather die of starvation than be seen chasing a mouse. Siamese Catz like a calm environment, and they rarely hang out with other Catz or Dogz except for other Siamese. A "high-fashion" Catz, the Siamese loves to show off in front of the camera with elegant poses and stretches.

TABBY

• The Tabby is a comfortable, loving breed of Catz who loves to flex its claws on almost any surface.
  
• Tabbies often look a little sleepy, but they will perk right up when the Treatz come out!
• Tabby Catz are very friendly and are always ready to play.

BUNNY

• The Bunny is lively and energetic, a real free spirit. Bunnyz secretly wish they were Catz!
  
• Bunniez love to play in the outdoors.

BULLDOG

• The Bulldog breed may look a little serious and gruff on the outside, but Dogz of this breed have an absolute love and devotion for the user. If given a bit of affection, you are likely to see their stern demeanor melt. Bulldogs have a special affection for puppyDogz (and even Kittenz), and you will often see an adult Bulldog carrying a younger Petz in its mouth or teaching a new puppyDogz how to fetch. Be sure to keep your Supply Shelf stocked with bones if you adopt a Bulldog—this breed loves nothing more than to plop itself down next to your cursor and chew on a good bone.
  
• Dogz of the Bulldog breed are known to be sweet and softhearted despite their stern-looking appearance. Bulldogs love Puppyz and Kittenz and will carry them around to keep an eye on them. Give your Bulldog lots of Bonez and he will worship you!
• Bulldogs are loyal companions that love to lie down with a tasty bone.

CHIHUAHUA

• Dogz of the Chihuahua breed are a peculiar if not lovable mix of wiry nerves and insatiable curiosity. Chihuahuas love to be the center of attention, and will generally stop at nothing to get your or another Dogz's notice; this might include littering your desktop with toyz or barging in on anything another Dogz is doing. Both agile and fast, Chihuahuas are great at playing Flying Disc and catching other toyz in the air. They require daily exercise to stay healthy and sleep in short restless spurts. With a constant stream of affection, your Chihuahua will eventually calm down, but if it catches you petting another Dogz, you'll be sure to hear about it!
  
• Dogz of this breed are nervous, high-strung, and jealous of other Petz, but with lots of love and reassurance, they eventually calm down.
• Chihuahuas are energetic, noisy Petz that are always ready to play!

DACHSHUND

• Fun, outgoing, energetic, curious, and smart, Dogz of this breed make great companions for young puppyDogz and kittyCatz. Dogz of this breed are a favorite among all Dogz.
  
• Dachshunds are big dogz in small packages!

DALMATIAN

• Wildly energetic, Dogz of this breed need to spend a lot of time running on the Beach or chasing leaves in the Backyard. You will need lots of Treatz and patience to teach this Dogz tricks!
  
• Each Dalmatian has a unique personality and set of spots!

GERMAN SHEPHERD

• Courageous and noble, this breed makes wonderful companions. They are active, but dignified, and will delight in joining you in fishing, swimming, or hiking.

GOLDEN RETRIEVER

• Golden Retrievers are considered the family dogz. Gentle and friendly, these Dogz are sociable and eager to please. They also love a good game of fetch.

GREAT DANE

• An overly loving and eager breed of Dogz, Great Danes can be quite clumsy and are often unaware of their large size; Dogz of this breed will accidentally bump into toyz or step on smaller Dogz or sleeping Catz. Great Danes love to wrestle and play with other Dogz and adore playing with the mice and chew toy. If left alone, your Great Dane will probably howl for your attention - and you will be sure to know when your Great Dane is on the chase—this breed's bark is unmistakable. Be sure to feed your Great Dane LOTS of food, these Dogz eat with a gusto!
  
• Great Danes start off small, but grow up to be large, lovable Petz. Dogz of this breed are mild-mannered and get along well with other Petz, but just can't help being a bit clumsy because of their size.

JACK RUSSELL TERRIER

• Jack Russell Terriers are always on the go. They love to investigate and watch things going on around them.

LABRADOR

• Labradors are the most loyal of all the Breedz. Labs get along with other Dogz but often can't resist chasing Kittenz! They love any game that involves running and fetching, and if you want a Dogz who's full of tricks, a Lab is the Dogz for you!
  
• Labradors always find a way to retrieve their favorite Toyz.

MUTT

• Dogz of the Mutt breed are lovable, energetic mixed-breed Dogz who love to play with everything and everybody - although they are particularly fond of playing ball. Your Mutt will learn tricks with ease and will often perform them just for fun. You won't have to worry about your Mutt getting along with your other Petz, Dogz of this breed will make friends with most Dogz and even Catz on screen! Mutts are also very loyal and will be quick to come when you call.
  
• Mutts have the best features of all Breedz! Dogz of the Mutt breed get along with other Dogz, learn tricks easily, are loyal, lovable, and come quickly when called.
• Mutts are sweet and kind Petz that love to play fetch with you!

PAPILLON

• Affectionately attached for life, this breed prefers cuddling. He likes to play with toys inside and out.

POODLE

• Dogz of this breed are not as delicate as they look, although they are no match for a Great Dane or Sheepdog in a wrestling match. Poodles love doing tricks for Treatz!
  
• Poodles are elegant Petz that like to be pampered.

PUG

• Sweet as can be, this lovable breed is very playful and energetic. Born natural clowns, they will put a smile on your face and make you laugh.

SCOTTIE

• Quick, sharp, independent, and feisty, Dogz of the Scottish Terrier breed are always getting into trouble. But with those adorable faces, what user could resist? Scottish Terriers love to play, but may not always be cooperative - especially if the user is out of favor. They will bury any toy they can grab and then dig it up at a later time. (Your desktop is sure to be full of holes if you've got this breed out!) Be aware if you've got a Catz out, this breed is a consummate Catz-chaser!
  
• Scotties love to play, and even when they are being naughty it is usually a form of play. Scotties can’t resist chasing Catz and burying all their Toyz!
• Scottish Terriers like to play, but LOVE to bury and dig.

SHEEPDOG

• Sheepdogs are sweet and loveable. They get along well with other Dogz and Catz. They also love a good game of chase or fetch. These Dogz are always hungry, so give them lots of Treatz in addition to their regular dog food!
  
• Sheepdogs are big, clumsy, lovable, and loyal!

PIG

• Pigz are always hungry, and they’ll eat just about anything! They get along well with other animals, but they love to poke their noses into everything!

 gyiyg notes that low Patience petz don't seem to like trying on clothes.

quick correction: they don't seem to mind some clothes, but if you put clothes on them that they decide they don't like, they act really miserable at you for a prolonged period until you take them off

(i thought at first that my other cat that did this but had mostly only shown more minor animations reacting to it before until i checked again had higher patience and it was a factor in which animations played, but it turns out both my cats that do this have extremely low patience, lol)

On this-- Ritzy who hates all clothes has a Patience value of 52. And my other dog that hates all clothes has a Patience value of 94! My dog with the lowest patience actually loves dress up.

Now, both Ritzy and Mystik-- who both hate clothes-- have high Finickiness, both at value 84. That's really the only thing that stands out that my other dogz don't have....

[CatCreature]

Regarding the unique animations...I think I know what you mean! And if so, I've always referred to them personally as 'signature moves' xD It seems like a handful of my Petz have their own. I never paid attention to whether or not it's breed specific, I just noted that some Petz would just drop something they were in the middle of, and do a certain 'move' that made no sense. And it was the same move every time, for that pet. (Such as Felix and his spinning above!)

Here's an example of one of the best I caught on video:

Lilypie is a Persian, and her signature move is usually a little longer. She will always sit down, lift her head high, and do the feet shuffle. SOMETIMES she also went into an anxious looking situp afterwards, but not always. xD

[gyiyg]

Thor hm. it could be that there's multiple determining factors there, or it might work differently in cats than dogs (or it could be coincidental, that's just what i've observed, haha)

also, about Libido, i did some toying around, and i think i figured it out, but it's kind of weird
it seems like higher values make a pet less choosy about mates, and high enough values can make one have affectionate relationships even with potential mates they would have otherwise been neutral towards or even disliked... but only if the male is the one with high libido, for some reason. i think in female pets it can make the relationship go up a grade if the other pet is male, like one they'd normally be neutral towards becoming a "buddy" relationship instead, but they don't immediately fall in love with them like high libido males seem to. it's odd!

Aaaa I'm stealing this term! I have found/documented a few of these!


Toe taps


Spinning in place


Wave


Panic attack?

[Magica]

So Thor wondered what my Magnus' libido score would be, and then I found this topic, so I became curious. 

His scores: 



It was interesting trying to see how he matches up with what shaina @ kizmet has come up with. I was expecting his libido to be higher than that, considering I think there's only... 2? females in my game that Magnus absolutely won't mate with. 

Dogginess sounds about right - he'll play fetch for ages. Independence sounds right, too - he loves attention from me but is also quite happy to amuse himself if I've left the game idle (he only yowls with/to other catz, for instance. He's never once done it to call me). 

Patience was a surprise - I wasn't expecting it to be that low. He does like dressing up, but for clothes he doesn't like, instead of getting miserable, he gets p*ssed. 

Nurturing was a surprise, too, for the opposite reason - he doesn't really seem to care about other petz, unless it's a female he can mate with (or one that he hates). He's occasionally treated another pet like a toy, but that's about it. 




I wonder if the LoveDestiny would be how many matings can be announced at once? Since even with a big group of 40+ females, Magnus still only announces one mating at a time, although several can come literally within seconds of each other so I don't even get a chance to register who the first female was. Or perhaps a binary yes/no figure? (Does a spayed/neutered pet still have a 1 for that trait?) 



As for unique animations, Magnus seems to have picked one up recently. When he's interacting with another pet, sometimes he'll sit down and lift a front paw (usually the right one, I think?) as though giving them a high-five or a quick wave. He definitely has it, as I obviously watch him the most, but I think maybe there's another pet that has it, too? (I just can't remember who...)

[gyiyg]

i think libido probably doesn't have as much of a noticeable impact in pets that already have very agreeable personalities or potential mate data
the pair i used to test in particular were completely neutral towards each other when they were the same gender, and previously would only get to the "buddy" relationship even when i changed the gender of one of them and used the perfume liberally, and after i set the libido higher in one of them, so long as that one was male and the other was female, they would become flirty instead immediately without any prompting, so that's how i could tell what the change was, haha

OH MY GOSH YES, that is personally my favorite I've found so far!! I have very few who do that, and the first pet I can think of who does it is one of my sister's Dogz! xDD That heel-click gets me every time LOL It's even better when it's random as heck! But I've seen all those animations you've showed, and you're definitely catching the right stuff!! I wonder how many unique animations for this...thing...there actually are. xD Is there a set list, or will they do ANYTHING?

With my numbers, I guess I'd rule out -anything-...but you never know. xDD

The dressup comment made me laugh xDD I've seen some Petz go from 0 to 100 when forced into clothes too, and it makes me laugh, apologize, and we have to go find something else to do to keep the peace. x'DDD But coming from someone as timid looking as Magnus, that's too funny!

I'm not too sure about the LoveDestiny thing, though? I mean, the game was -meant- to be played with two Petz out max, right? So it seems weird that it would already be coded into the game to not let them announce more than one pregnancy at a time, when it's actually impossible (at the time) to do so. I'd assume that's just game mechanics. (Unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean!)

~~~

I'm kind of watching this thread because all of this really fascinates me. But I don't know enough about Petz personalities and what's coincidence, or what is based on changes I made...so I'm unsure where I'd even start with, at helping. xD I'm just kind of reading along and wondering over it myself.

Thank you guys for posting what you know so far, and please do keep us updated, I'm dying to learn more about Petz personalities!!

[Thor]

Same CatCreature -- I've been using Discord more to chat about my petz and findings like this so I'm glad shaina motivated me to openly post them on the forum :)

I've been trying to document my petz stories recently and started another thread: whiskerwick.boards.net/thread/8920/thors-petz-adventures-love-stories

It does talk about some adventures and has cute gifs.

[Amy @ Maplewood Kennels]

Do you guys think the LoveDestiny thing could have something to do with the MatchStatus Code, number thing in their profiles? Has anyone figured out how that thing works?

I asked about this and talked about this before with several folks and even tried to see if I could write a program to help me figure out relationships with the Match Status in one pet (and then for many other petz). But-- its super weird-- the Match Status changes literally constantly as the pet is out of the carrying case--

Which means this is something that is based on some changing code that is happening during the game?

And I read that Match Status was used on a website to "match" petz but I wish I knew what it to figure out "close matches". I wish I knew more.

[Amy @ Maplewood Kennels]

Yeah, I noticed it changes a lot too. And I remember the match making thing on the Petz website. It was very interesting! I wish we knew more about it! I wonder if any of the people they've been in contact with from the PF Magic people would know anything more about it?

[gyiyg]

not totally sure about this one, but i've been observing one of my cats that has very low naughtiness (a rarity for me since the majority of my crew has 50+ naughtiness) and confidence, and it seems like he's less inclined to outright pick fights with other pets he doesn't like, opting to sneak up behind them and bat them on the back of the head instead, which isn't something i see very often (the rest of mine will just lunge at the other one and start fighting if they don't like them), so i'm wondering if there might be some connection there. i'll probably have to keep an eye on my others with low confidence and watch more ones that have low naughtiness to confirm, haha

[✬MsWildiful✬]

Woah, this is very fascinating! Reflet must be pretty clever to have made this petz-personality-revealer program How exciting! I'll have to test some of my petz.
