They can die? I didn’t know that! LOL
I would feel too bad to do that.
I will have to check on that free will thing. Will that mean that I will have to babysit thier every move even more?
I did read on the web site that some of them burst into flames. Laughed my ass off while reading questions and answers.
Will they actually have play time in bed? That would be cool.
My one family that I think I am going to get rid of was supposed to be a poly family but nobody like anybody. They need to get a bigger bed so I can get them all in it!
Okay, point taken no pets and stay away from the Goth family!
I am going back to the site to check out some of the stories.
My husband says that three hours on the weekends is too much, but you just can’t seem to quit.
Kricket: Yes, you will have to “babysit” them more. In fact, they WILL NOT MOVE unless you make them.
Yes, you can kill your Sim. The easiest way, I’m guessing, is to get them in the pool and take away the steps so they can’t get out. They will eventually fall asleep and drown.
Also, (and I think they mention this on the site) don’t waste personality points on neatness. Hire a maid and reserve those points for other things like “outgoing” and “nice”. This will make you a more approachable Sim and you will find it much easier to make friends.
My son also plays. He’s 9 and thought it would be great to make a family of skeletons. And a family of stormtroopers. Half the time I can’t even tell who my friends are.
To complicate things, I have a skeleton in my family too. If I keep track of what he’s wearing, I’m usually ok. (He only sleeps in the closet but he’s allowed out anytime he wants.)
Hey, just wanted to say that I play too. My favorite family is the Pahoehoes. Their names are Andesite, Caldera, Kipuka, Solfatara, Tephra, Tumulus, and Xenocryst. If you want to have some real fun, move a family of seven (two kids) into a vacant lot costing §10,500. That leaves you with §9,500 to build a whole house. Then refuse to cheat. After I built a few walls, I had enough money for five cheap beds, two cheap chairs, a sink, a toilet, and a fridge. No windows, no wallpaper, no lights, no phone, no TV. Of course, once all five adults are working, then the money just starts rolling in.
I can’t remember the exact site I found the naked skin, but I know it was on one of the fan sites shown on this site. There are a lot of really cool things you can find here. I especially love FaceLift and the other two program that lets you make skins and wallpaper, etc.
I have also found some great stuff on these sites as well.
Has anyone used the “Grow_Grass #” cheat? What is it supposed to do? I haven’t noticed any difference in my landscape.
Also, I made a really cool landscape with downloaded topiary, flower beds, bushes, stone walkways, benches, fountains, and even outdoor lighting. The problem is, is that my gardener can’t handle the entire thing by himself. Does anyone know if there is a cheat that will make him come every day or maybe hire additional gardeners? I have to take a day off from work every once in a while to get everything watered.
The “grow grass” cheat makes the grass grow faster or slower. You only really notice it if you level terrain…normally it’s brown for a couple of days afterwards.
And hmmm…i dunno about a gardener cheat. I’ll look around and see what I can find. I do know bushes and topiaries never have to be watered, maybe you could have more of them than flowers? (And hey! Upload it to the Exchange! I wanna see it!)
As for favorite cheats…mine is the teleporter. You can bring any Sim over to your house at anytime. Even if they don’t live in a house. Makes builidng friends a HELL of a lot easier.
I will see if I can upload it to the exchange. I have never tried the teleport cheat, but I think I am going to have to if I am ever going to get that raise.
Wouldn’t it be cool if the game were interactive with other people. I could send my disfunctional families over to your house for a BBQ or something.
Bah… That’s just too easy. I once took one of my Sims, trapped him in a very tight space where he couldn’t sit or anything. I didn’t want him to starve, so I gave him a fridge. I just wanted him to die of boredom, sleep deprivation, and discomfort. However, to my dismay, the little bugger would just fall asleep standing up! Well, I fixed his wagon. You see, I put a radio in the corner, blasted it, and put a small table in the way so that my Sim wouldn,t be able to turn it off. Everytime he would start to doze off, the noise would wake him up. I have never seen a Sim complain so much about everything.
mmmmm The Sims. I didn’t know about any of these cheat codes, but you can do pretty well if you play it legit. I am quite proud of Ariel, a sim of mine. I maxed out all of her skills. My first attempt (the Grimoire family) did fairly well too, but I found that once I’m bothering with multiple sims I get bored playing. And while kids were fun (and my sims sure did spawn a lot) they get dull to play.
If you want some nifty sim stuff also check out http://www.7deadlysims.com it has sims in bondage gear and a lara croft skin too. You can also get pinups both male and female. Nothing nude, just women in bathing suits and topless men in tight jeans iirc.
