Exporting Sims WITHOUT using SimPE

Said sims would only be available for ploppage in other lots. They're effectively lotbinned, although if you run them through a cleaning neighborhood with CPI they'll at least be safely lotbinned. All you'll be able to do with them is drop another copy of them in another 'hood if you want their genes to proliferate.
I never said that my solution was the ideal one, merely that it is a possibility, and although they are, as you say, lot-binned, they can be easily added to the adoption pool in any other hood in your game. Likewise, although you obviously couldn't upload them to the exchange as sims, you could share them with friends via e-mail if you wanted. (You could use a popular self-sim like JM as the adult sim on the lot - he's been a foster-father before now... ;D)

So to clarify: no one knows what plugins are needed to enable Sim Surgery in SimPE (which is the only program that can be used to get a Sim that was born in-game into BodyShop)?
ETA: I don't think it's possible to get a Sim exported using SimPE at this time. I disabled every single plugin I could in Preferences and I still couldn't get Sim Surgery to work. *shrugs*

Well, patience is a virtue, so maybe you should be virtuous! But it won't be that long, I don't suppose, before the first QA version of Simpe for BV is released....I shan't even install the game until I be sure I can edit stuff! I had enough of that when Seasons was first released, trying to sort out the muddled family relationships (which eventually was put right in the patch) with only Insim to do it with. I mean, you can't have babies growing up with a biological father married to their mother who think their father is a female sim that neither parent knows......

That sounds like the topic of a Jerry Springer show. :D

This is NOT Necromancy as I do have something to add for anyone who searchs as deperately and insanely for a way to export their in-game born Sims because Bon Voyage started a big fireball of doom (curses-- never, EVER buy an EP when it first comes out).
I am angry at EAxis for putting an emphasis on genetics in the Sims 2, making a Sims 2 Sim dump at the Exchange, and then never providing a tool to allow one to upload an in-born game sim.
Eh, hem, to my point:

Here you will find that the most kind Paleoanth has provided a copy of the BETA versioin of SimsPe for BV. I assume that if you know how to export Sims from the older SimsPE then you are proficient enough not to blow stuff up. I tested the simple export feature, and it worked fine. Remember to always clone the resulting file from an export to get rid of the SimsPE bloat of file size and make the package stable. It is Beta-- remember-- desperate times call for desperate mesasuers, but otherwise-- LEAVE IT ALONE!
MOD EDIT: Remove fucked up formatting, tags, and repeated link.
