Title: Summoning Townies/Downtownies
Post by: Orikes on 2007 January 31, 20:57:10
Hey all, I was wondering if there was an easy way to summon specific townies/downtownies? I have the shrub thingy that you can use to summon playable sims, but that doesn't seem to work for unknown townies/downtownies. Specifically, I have an idea I wanted to use all four vampires for, but so far have only run into one downtown.

Same thing goes for the Leader of the Pack. I'd like to use him for something, but it's even worse. With the vampires, if they're known at least they can be invited over. With the LOTP, it's just a wait and see thing. Basically, I need some screenshots for a story and was hoping for those specific characters.

All i can suggest is open up some crappy business and get the perk so you can call anyone in the neighbourhood i think it's 4th on one of the chains so you can probably get it in a single day.  With that then all you need to do is get them to friend status and invite them over, saves alot of hassle.

As for the LOTP check out christianlov's hacks on Mod the Sims 2 i saw a pet teleport painting and i'm almost certain you could teleport in the LOTP.

The Simlogical teleporter allows you to teleport any Sim, regardless of relationship. Grand Vampires are NPCs so are in the NPC family.

Hmm. I may be confusing items. Is the Simlogical teleporter the shrub? I think it is, but I'm not 100% certain.  If it is, then I only need to solve the LOTP issue and then I'm good to go. :)

The Simlogical teleporters come in shrub and painting form.

As for the LotP -- if you have a decorated outside (trees and shrubs) chances are high he will turn up. Or you can use DJ's Sims wolf attraction sign to call a wolf.

InSIM is also an option. Of course, InSIM can do anything.

In a similar line of questioning, is it possible, at all, to control ghosts?

I *think* you can make ghosts selectable IIRC.

You CAN select ghosts and tell them to do things but it doesn't work.  They got a undroppable action called haunt and there's no way to get rid of it, at least in my experience.

For summoning the LOTP or other pets, the christianlov pet teleporter works great.
