Title: College Student turned invisible/black silhouette
Post by: twistingsims on 2006 May 15, 17:49:42
I tried to change a dormie's clothing through JM's clothing tool object and I have dizzy2's casual npcs mod as well.   ::)

Is there any way I can fix this.      :-[

I have attached a doc with the pictures



thank you

I for one don't want to download your .doc.   Why not throw the pictures on photobucket and use IMG tags to show them in the thread.

Give me 5 minutes to upload the images to Photobucket...

EDIT: Images uploaded, see below.

I'm not sure what the last one has to do with an invisible sim though.

Ok I had the black silouhette sim a few times with a particular sim that just vanished off the lot one day (she vanished from the side bar also), I think I used boolprop to bring her back and after that point she turned into a silouhette when inside.  I tried using move objects to delete her and when she come back she was fine but would blacken shortly after.  I gave up doing anything with her and the problem cleared itself eventually.

Thank you Venusy for loading those up for me  :)

 :-[   I'm really sorry guys, I have never uploaded pictures on a website b4 such as Image Photobucket.  It did say I could attach a word document right.  So I made one with the pictures in it.

okay, picture 1 and 2 shows the sim after I tried to change her clothes using JMP's clothing tool.  What happened was that when I tried to choose or buy an outfit for a nonplaying dormie, I could buy her an outfit but when the next screen comes up to pick that outfit to wear it was blank, no outfits to choose from, so I went thru the rest of the screens to get out of the clothing tool.  Next thing I knew she was invisible.  So I tried to change her back with clothing tool again but it didn't work.  Yah I know, I should've just exited and not saved but you know hind sight and all that.

So I tried to give a shower so she would do the twisting thing but then she turned into the silhouette.  Then when she goes outside, she became visible but naked!!

I just wondered if there was anyway to fix her but since she's a dormie I guess I can just "get rid" of her.

Thanks for all your help thou.   :D

This happens if you use Toms Clothing Tester with townies too, it's best to stick with OFB's feature for non-playables reclothing. 

You can fix her, but it entails adding the dormie to the family (you can use TL&D).  I can't for the life of me remember exactly how I cured mine (I remember it was Christy Stratton though heh). 

Try adding her to the family, making her selectable [if you can't select her normally because of her invisible status use the hot key for cycling through sims) and changing her appearance/clothes. 

You could always turn her back into a townie after with the Townie/NPC making object.  Anyway just fiddle around and see if you have more joy after adding her to the family.

Maybe the Silhouette sim is the infamous MYSTERY SIM!!!

*GASP* I bet you're right, JM.
But more importantly, it's the occupant of the invisible house!
