Deadly Ghosts

<< < (3/7) > >>

Yep, the accidental deaths are more fun and realistic. They're like freak accidents in the human world, not that those are fun, but it made the game slightly more cool. And my bet is that they made the ability to climb out of the pool, because some players thought it was stupid the sims just didn't climb out of the pool...

That's always been one the intrigues or interesting quirks about sims. The fact that there's random things, such as the satelite and being abducted by aliens, or even the sea monster that popped up out of the water in sims 1, makes people wonder what happened. But sadly once again, they're taking stuff like that away. The only alien reference in sims 3 is the rocks with the cavedrawings on them :(. I don't think looking through the telescope at night will send the spaceship for you and impregnate your female sims with aliens. The only mysterious family was the Goth's and they didn't even add anything, just said, oh look it's the Goth house, remember Bella.

The least they should do is make Strangetown neighborhood for download. Or one like it.

Now in TS3 it's become even harder to kill our sims.  We've lost "remove the ladder" to drown our sims, instead we now have to wall the pool in.  Removing a ladder was much quicker. 


How do you even add walls around the pool? When I try, I get an error message telling me that I can't intersect the pool. The game insists that there be at least a 1-tile border around the pool, which my sims can use to climb out and save themselves. I've tried adding walls, adding fences instead, changing the order in which I do it, moveobjects on, etc... the only way I know to drown my sims is to either put a bunch of objects (like the pedestal) around the pool, or to use a cheat to drag their energy down while they're swimming (which I haven't tried yet).

This is way too much work to get the ghost I want on my lot.

Is there a trick to it? Or could it be that being on a Mac interferes with some stuff?

aspinL:
Have you tried using "moveObjects on" Catangi? You type that into the line after pressing command-shift-c and press enter.
Does anyone know if that is right to pull up the command prompt for a mac, on windows that's what it is(ctrl-shift-c).

turned out to be the game's way of notifying me that ghosts were driving by in their ghost cars...but haven't heard it for a while now - they must have decided to stop taking the scenic route.

I think my ghosts don't have drivers licence.
I never saw a ghost car, and that puts my sims so out of the achievements slot in Maslow's needs hierarchy piramid  ???
Where are my ghost cars?

The cars are not ghostly, just the drivers.
