Title: Did I just do a Very Bad Thing? Post by: rufio on 2008 August 22, 02:58:47 I accidentally left some graves behind when I was moving some of my sims around, so I decided it was finally time to make an actual graveyard. I took a blank 4x4 lot out of the lot bin and put some trees on, and went to move the graves. Then I realized I had stupidly made the lot a residential lot instead of a community lot. So I went back to it, and used the lot zoning cheat to make it a community lot. However, after I'd moved the graves there, I couldn't find them on the lot. The I noticed that the lot didn't have a pay phone, but instead had a mailbox and a garbage can, like a residential lot. Is there some way to fix this lot and make it into a real community lot? Will it mess up my game in subtle and horrific ways? Will I ever get the graves back? Help?

Here's a recent Podium thread with good info (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,12696.0.html). Title: Re: Did I just do a Very Bad Thing?

Here's a recent Podium thread with good info (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,12696.0.html). Ok, I tried the instructions in that thread, but when I unpaused the game, the dead sims disappeared and it gave the "died on another lot" message. Also, that option didn't appear for a dog that had died, with boolprop controlpets true. The graves are still AWOL. ??? Title: Re: Did I just do a Very Bad Thing?

And I don't know if Pescado enabled respawning of pet tombstones. Title: Re: Did I just do a Very Bad Thing?

That's supposed to happen. But you're saying that when you click "Respawn tombstone", it's not actually spawning a tombstone?Title: Re: Did I just do a Very Bad Thing?
