deleting clothe & stopping hauntings? is there a way to stop hauntings? I want to have a graveyard with all the people from my family that have died without further risk of death by fright... those ghosts are really annoying sometimes... & how do i delete clothe from my wardrobe (if its even possible)? I want to delete some of the work suits that i no longer need (like those mascot outfits... my sim will be really humiliated if her bf sees them ) Oh & how do you get attacked by flies? Do you have to be really stinky or what? i just heard it possible :shocked:
As for the hauntings, obviously, getting rid of the gravestones gets rid of the ghosts. If you don't want to do that try putting water all around the graveyard. I've read that ghosts don't cross water. You might try a search of the forums here for discussion of that. (BTW, Mine go up and down stairs all the time so keeping them out with staircases doesn't help, which is one suggestion offered by some.) I've never tried to get rid of clothes I bought. How would your sim's bf see them if she doesn't wear them. Nor have I seen death by flies but I suspect it comes from having lots of dirty dishes all over the place--you've probably seen the flies around them. But I think your sim would be pretty miserable about dirty dishes. Even slobby sims don't like dirty houses (at least mine don't, go figure. ) Sounds a gruesome death, anyway.:yuck:
I obviously don't want to do that lol, i even bought a house with a big garden to have a huge graveyard (you would be surprised at how many rich guys die after marrying my sim) Ooo thanks I'll give that a try roleplay & some of the clothe that come after age transaction are pretty horrible, wouldn't mind getting rid of those that's why I'm so interested :devil:
Sims need stairs to go up and down from one floor to another. If you don't want your sims being haunted just put their urns in an attic that has no stairs leading down to the occupied floors. Death by flies is difficult to achieve cos they're more apt to die of something else long before the flies get bad enough. I've never seen it happen except by forcing it with a cheat. You can't get rid of the clothes that come with the game. I think the clothes are deliberately naff so that we're forced to take our sims shopping to buy new ones. I'm not sure how that state of affairs benefits Maxis but it probably does ...
Ok thank you too I just thought of it but would putting a fence around the graveyard keep them out? I can't test this because apparently my graphics card commited suicide after i played too much... & I'm not getting a new one till monday/tuesday. And since i don't want to open a new thread i just want ask 1 more question; does how your sim grows up affect it in any way? or is it just another memory?
Apparently their status when they age affects the length of their lives, but since all stages are the same for every sim until elder, it really means they stick around longer as a codger. I wish the adult years were longer, and the codger years could be a little shorter. Or, rather, I'd like a middle age. 29 days as an adult, 20 as a middle ager, and up to 15 as an elder. With the green stuff that could be a very long life. Edited to say: A fence won't contain your ghosties, but apparently a foundation without stairs can.
Ooo thank you x2 lol, thats actually cool, i could have a graveyard shed with no windows & black wallpaper... *slips back into her own little insane sim world* :shocked: & there was something else i was going to ask but i uh, forgot it for something like the 5th time already :ermm:
Ali. Ghosts can pass through walls and doors ... it's just gravity they have trouble with, needing bridges to get over water and stairs to change levels. SBW I use TwoJeffs Age Duration hack. It applies the Maxis calculation that's supposed to performed when a sim transitions from adult to elder at the transition to adult stage. My sims typically get a 40-ish day adult life span and the elder phase is rarely too long. They still die at around the 70 day mark. I works fine with Pescado's director's cut, plus Inge's no empty potty, Merola's MP
i know, i got it from your first post, i just thought it would look gloomier if it had walls with black wallpaper & maybe black tiled floors, sort of like a purgatory room... which leads me to think i should get those flame spitting things too lol :devil: my sims don't even get to live to the elder stage with the current aging , right now i'm playing a family where the main person (a rather bloodthirsty woman lol) decides everything for her family members, so there's arranged marriages for money & whatnot, quite a fun break from playing happy families (way too much lol). btw, whats sbw lol :shy::blush:
oh ok :blush: I still can't remember what i was going to ask but i did think of another question lol (do i ever run out of those ), its about ms. crumplebottom, there is an option to prank her, but whenever i pick that my sim does nothing & just gets lectured, why is that? i just thought it strange they would include the option even though it wont work in the first place (or is it just me )
Just saying that isn't just you. Its with my sims as well. My guess is that it might have something to do with the personality and skill levels of the sim playing the prank. And I never get ghosts, if my sim doesn't mourn for the dead sim.
Ok one more question; my graves are disappearing! 2 have gone so far, my main sims sister's & her husband's (my 2 most important ones ). Do the tombstones just dissapear because of being so old or can guests take them or something? i really don't want them to go disappearing again :(
