More Awesome Than You!

You know how it goes - I moved my Legacy family to a new home to try and sort out the wedding party error problem and now the ghosts are pissed because they no longer recognize their beloved bed. I searched and came up with a few existing threads on the topic but the only thing I found was changing something in SimPE, yet it didn't say what that something was. I did find some useful info on how to prevent the constant whinging in future generations but is there anything I can do to shut up the ghosts I already have? Would sending them off to a community lot and moving them back home (and presumably resetting their ghost types with the debugger) make them stop?

There may be a shift-click option on the tombstone for it, something about "set family". Failing that, there's always the Ghostbuster.

I don't so much mind the ghosts being out and doing what ghosts do as I do the incessant screeching and flapping of the arms. The two ghosts who are affected don't ever actually enter the house and disrupt their descendants, they just mosey around the yard and be mad about their bed every few minutes. I  just checked the lot debugger with one of them and I didn't see a set family type of option. I guess I could move the two of them to a mausoleum with a ghostbuster so the other ghosts can come and play without being disrupted, but I was hoping I could just flip a switch of some kind and make the two be quiet.

TwoJeffs has a Ghosthack that does what I think you want doing - In this thread (http://box156.bluehost.com/~aestudi1/forums/inteenimater/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=25).

Click on the tombstone?

*slaps self in the forehead* Click the tooooombstone... reading comprehension ftw. I gave that a try and they're still pissed off. I'll give TJ's hack a shot or if that doesn't fix them I might just rez the bastards and kill them again. Cheers for the suggestions!

Does respawning their tombstones with the Lot Debugger work better?

I've had some varied results doing this. I managed to piss off another two ghosts before I replaced the tombstones - one was hit by a satellite on a dorm lot and brought home by his sister and the other I thought was attached to a different bed so I replaced the one she used. Anyway, I respawned those two tombstones plus the two original pissed off ghosts that I was asking about in the first place. The two original ghosts have yet to make another appearance and nearly a week has gone by in the household so I don't know how to interpret their absence. Their character data still looks fine in SimPE and they still show up on the phone to be rezzed, so maybe they are taking a break from haunting or something. OTOH, the other two have come back out almost every night. I did have to reset their ghost colors on the tombstones because they were both acting like they starved to death (I thought this was an option on the debugger but I couldn't find it in either menu). The one hit by the satellite is still angry about his bed back in the dorm being gone, but the other went to a different bedroom in the house and cheered for the bed in there. Now she's a happy ghost again, so at least I got 1 out of 2 fixed.

ETA: The original two are back on the prowl again and are still pissed about their bed being gone. The one ghost who is happy now is the only one who had slept in several beds in the house so I guess she just reverted to a previous bed to cheer.
