Title: How to generate dormies? Post by: missaaliyah on 2008 March 20, 17:20:30 I am using the cleaned up templates for my game, with all the necessary hacks etc... Of course, when playing in a dorm, no dormies are generated. How to I generate them? Thanks.

Title: Re: How to generate dormies? Post by: gynarchy on 2008 March 20, 17:41:15 You can create them in YACAS, move them into an empty residential lot in the Uni subhood and use Inge's teleporter to add them to the Townie pool. Since they are YAs they'll become dormies.

I use Zazazu's face templates, but there are quite a few out there. Nailati's templates are very popular. The advantage of face templates is that you can either take out nodormieregen, or spawn them from the mailbox in batches. This generally eliminates (or reduces) the fugly incidence. Advantage of creating your own in YACAS is that you get total control of facial features and names. Title: Re: How to generate dormies?

Youch! Too much like work for me. ;D Title: Re: How to generate dormies? Post by: Zazazu on 2008 March 20, 21:22:54 Neh. It's not that bad. Takes maybe an hour to switch templates, roll aspirations for the new teens, do an aging round, and hit up the townie gun for five kids. It makes the populace change a bit, which is nice. Also makes me change things up...I'm losing a girl I wanted to marry in due to the fact that she's nearly an elder and none of the eligible boys like her. I also have to have a family sim twiddling his thumbs for about a week until his girlfriend he's so in love with grows into an adult.

Title: Re: How to generate dormies? Post by: missaaliyah on 2008 March 20, 23:47:25 thank you for your suggestions, i take it that the gun think from the testingcheatsenabled cheat can then generate them. or with the mailbox. i think i will create then in YA CAS and do it manually with either Inge's teleport or gun/maillbox
