Title: Apartment life tenant creation
Post by: marchviolets on 2009 February 08, 15:38:49
I followed the instructions in the following thread: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,10798.0.html (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,10798.0.html)

However, I can't find a solution to creating apartment life tenants. A post at Sunsims says that they are awaiting information regarding this, but I would like to double check that I haven't missed something.

Apartment tenants are social group sims: you should create sims belonging to Socialites, Gearheads, etc. The NPC creator gun allows you to do that.

Thank you very much for the fast response. I didn't realise that all of the tenants were social group sims. Is the gun the only necessary step, or should I turn them into townies (using a teleporter) first, as with Bon Voyage locals?

On a seperate note, the teleporter (cat) does have options to turn sims into Bon Voyage locals, social group sims, etc. Is it a bad idea to use the teleporter rather than the gun?

I cited the gun because it's embedded in the game itself, but any other modded object that moves the sims in the correct families would do; Inge's teleporter is perfect :).

I don't think that you have to turn them into townies first, either; at least, I didn't do that and everything went well.

Thank you again! That has cleared up some confusion. Perhaps the post with instructions to turn sims into townies via the teleporter before then changing them into Bon Voyage locals via the gun may have been posted before the teleporter was updated. Can't wait to get started. :)
