Title: Unattached SWAF
Post by: Killzone on 2008 October 14, 21:29:40
Preamble
Sims 2 Deluxe (Base and Nightlife package)
OFB

Custom hood, clean templates used
No deaths in hood as yet


Possible problem

On examining the SWAF in SimPe, I note the following:-

NPC Taxi Driver has no short term wants and fears
NPC Postman has no short term wants and fears

Of the default NPC's there is only the Therapists and one unknown potatoehead having SWAF files and the unknowns has no LTW
There are 2 'unknown' potatoeheads in the character files. The other default NPC's (Grim Reaper,Polination tech) etc have character files but have not been encountered ingame as yet, AFAIK.


One SWAF file not attached to anyone, has nothing on any of the 4 tabs


Questions

1) Are the mailman and taxi drivers lack of short term wants and fears a problem, if so, by making them selctable and rerolling the wants with the debugger fix the problem?

2) Should I just nuke the unattached SWAF in SimPe?

3) I dont have University but with the debugger I CAN upgrade my Sims to have degrees and get the 6 slots and 2 locks...is this a VBT or not?

Why the hell are you fiddling with the taxi driver to start with?  DO NOT TOUCH!  He's not a real character.
The postman is a NPC, why do you care what he dreams of?

Many characters don't have any WAFs until they need them.

I havent fiddled with the Taxi driver, apart from to give her a bright yellow sexy uniform...which then made it apparent that she is also the driver of all the workpool vehicles..busy girl, that one.

As far as NPC's not having WAF's until they need them, thats good to know, thankyou.

Why? You never see them.

BTW, I'm picturing your game as some 13-year-old army brat kid's wet dream. You have body builder meshes and are worried about nipples not showing, now with the whorish taxi drivers.

Whorish taxi drivers are often in my dreams...

Last time I checked SimPE didn't name everything.  Your "unknown" sims are not junk - one file is probably the Mystery sim and the other is a generic robot base for all your sentry bots etc etc.  though one could be the remote control car. 


Off topic, but I discovered this week that robots can have allergies - one of my boardfriends has a sneezing sentrybot!   ::)
There's a fix for it at Simbology which is where she went for help.
