Default Changing the mood of existing buffs
I'm trying to change Romantic's Lovelorn buff to Sad, because it peeves me a little that the description says Sad but the gameplay says Tense. So I import the buff's XML files into S4S, look for all references to the Tense emotion, and swap them with Sad, so that it looks like this:

And then I open it in-game, and, uh...

Alright, what am I missing here?

Either a hidden buff, or the game hasn't realized you changed anything due to caches. Make sure your localthumbcache has been deleted when testing, and if you paused when the buff was already on him make sure to let the game register it. So hit play and see what happens.

I'd added the buff manually, so that wasn't the issue, but I cleared the cache and it worked like a charm! Thanks!
