Title: Female Garden Club Members have male voices
Post by: twistingsims on 2008 May 17, 18:52:18
I did read the post in Podium "Hello, what gender are you?"  I did mention in there that Tiffany Zarabin had the male voice, but it is not just her, it is all the female members of the Garden Club who have the male voices.

My game is fresh from installing Freetime.  I have all the exp packs up to Freetime as well as most of the stuff packs up to and incuding K&B, and I have not patched with the latest patch as this particular issue was not among the problems listed.  I have mostly JMP's hacks, however this started right from the beginning before I put any hacks in .

Of course this is not a big issue but definitely annoying.  Is there something in SimPE where I could change the voice to female?

Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks

I haven't read the "What gender are you?" thread and am thoroughly not awesome. However since you mention SimPE, have you tried opening the character files and toggling the "treat as __" option? If you select to treat Zarubin as male then save and close her file, then open her again and change back to "treat as female", would that "reset" her gender markers or whatever to give her the right voice?

No idea if this would work (or if it was the first thing you tried weeks ago, lol).

Or, if you hate SimPE as much as I do, download the Insimenator obj edition and a teleport shrub, summon Garden Club Members, make selectable, and then use the Insiminator itself to treat the characters as females.

If I can't do it in-game, I probably won't do it at all. That's my motto.

Does the game treat them as male, or does the game recognize them as females, but gives them the male voiceset anyway? If so, that's pretty damn neat. The neighborhood needs a Dr. Girlfriend.

Yeah, that Tiffany Zarubin is heat incarnate.  ;D

You're right, Tiffany is one hot mama!!  ::)  ;D

Anyhoo, all joking aside, how can I tell if the game is treating them as a male, they are only townies, and any and all interactions with them are the same as any sim, greet, joke, fight, slap, etc., (which funnily enough is what they all seem to do to each other, argue, slap and fight  :D)

What interaction would they do that would tell me that?

Of course I was thinking of just moving the garden club members, one at a time, into their own lot and see if newly generated ones would do the same thing.

 ;D Good one!

I went into SimPE and checked on the female garden club members and they are all listed as "treat as male"! ???

So I changed them all to female and I will see how my game fares. :-\

Ah-HA! Thought that might be it - hope it helps!

I actually had a sim once who, as a fresh out of CAS adult, had as his top two hotties Tiffany Zarubin and Katie McGraw. Dude was really into the older ladies. Grey hair was not one of his turn-ons; he just could not quit with the heartfarting whenever one of them was near. If only that Tiffany'd had a male voice...  ;)
