Pets have trouble sleeping in BV?
witch:
I've always had pets woken by TV or stereo. Only had one parrot. briefly, before I had a dead parrot, so I don't know about those. The womrat wheel used to wake my cats up I think. I can't even remember - do they have wheels? I'm sure I remember a squeaking noise.
Oh and the archways do stop the noise in the next room for me.
Magicmoon:
I'm still running Seasons and the TVs and stereos wake up the Pets in my game. I had a cat sleeping on a bed when a Sim went into labor and her groans woke the cat up. Jumping on the couch will wake up both Sims and pets that are asleep in that room, even if they aren't on the couch. Even some of the toddler toys and the cheap dishwasher wake the pets and Sims. But they sleep in the yard just fine while the carpool blows its horn for an hour.
Emma:
This is why my sim-pets sleep in the garage or backyard :D I tend to keep them out of the house if I can.
Inge:
I don't see why sims can't sleep with the TV on anyway - most humans can. To make it realistic, they should only wake up if someone switches it when a sim is already asleep. If they fall asleep with it on in the first place they should not wake straight up again just because it is still on.
nocomment:
Yes, and stereos should be the same way. If I'm listening to Brian Eno's "Songs that are quieter than silence itself," the stereo shouldn't wake me up!
I suggest putting "The Great Divide" room dividers around the pet beds. These are those little flat strips in the fencing section, they look like a threshold when you put them down. They act like walls and keep sound out.
They're also great to use around cribs. You can have a crib in the child's bedroom, and the baby won't wake up the child.
