Which Maxis made Sims can be ressurected without problems

First of all, it depends on your definition of "safe." Many sims can be resurrected without any trouble, but have weird DNA (makes them bad candidates for breeding) or no personality (0 in everything).
Hmm, so if you resurrect them the sort of so-so way, not zombie and not perfect, does their personality flip to 10 everything? ;)

10 in everything would bother me as much as none, I would change their personality with boolprop anyway lol, I just want to know if it can do the trick or not, I guess it does. Honestly weird DNA do not really bother me as long as it does not make my game crash of course.
I am thinking (though have no idea) that changing personality traits with SimPe or boolprop testingcheats would do the same, it would change the file the exact same way, Am I wrong thinking that way?

If you aren't breeding them, they shouldn't cause problems. And even breeding them is relatively safe and in most cases the worst that will happen is a baby with weird DNA that you don't know the source of. I've resurrected and played them several times and nothing particularly bad ever happened. Even Julius Ceasar, has no Aspiration and the game seems to think he's a she, and Lyla Grunt who kept turning bald at odd times. Michael Bachelor never caused me any problems and even fathered a child with no screw-ups (it was butt ugly though). You have to sort of take a step back and realize that the playable sims Maxis gave us are also full of problems. For example, many people get crashes when the Singles girls give birth (supposedly something is wrong with their DNA), and the same thing with PTech. The Singles never caused problems in my game but PTech refuses to be bred... game crashes every time. So there really doesn't seem to be anything in the game that's 100% safe and certain.
When you talk about PTech are you referring to the one in Strangetown which have a child and a teen living in the house (the scenario starts and the teen is about to grow-up, sorry do not have the name of that family to the top of my head)?
If so, it is good to know since I wanted his wife to drink the elixir of life and have another baby but if it makes the game crash, I will not do that..... :o
Motoki:
It should be the same pretty much yes, so it's actually easier in the game. SimPE, I believe, will also let you change a sim's genetic personality, which is different than their current personality. Like if a Sim was born with 0 nice but was encouraged up to 10 nice, when they go to have a kid it will use their genetic niceness, which is 0, and not their current etc.
But again if you're not breeding them then it's not a big deal.

Thanks Motoki I will probably go for it, I miss Michael Bachelor so much for some unknown reason.
I guess I miss Sims 1 a bit....
