Grim Reaper Outfit

[vega_pleiades]

So I'd like to have the Grim Reaper outfit for a story I'm working on, but I have absolutely no idea how to unlock it so it can be used in CAS. Does anyone know where to find it for download? I checked MTS2, but their search engine fills me with a terrible rage.

Help please.

edit: typo fix

[verdaeni]

did you try having testingcheatsenabled true  on,  and then hitting shift-n in CAS to unlock the special stuff?

[vega_pleiades]

For some reason, boolprop never works for me. Perhaps I suck at doing stuff.

[verdaeni]

make sure the spelling is exactly right.  i actually alias all this stuff in my config file  so i dont have to worry about it.   it needs to be called userStartup.cheat and in there so far i have:

so i just type bp+ into the cheat bar and im on my way.  its a lot easier to change snapgrid using sg- and sg+ as well.

I thought Morague had done this?  If my memory is correct, try looking at VS.

[verdaeni]

i stole the original stuff from somewhere on modthesims2,  long long ago when the sims2 was  new.   but i've added about 80% of that myself.    i dont think the original used all the three character abbriations either.   making most things abbr with the +/-  to turn on and off was also mine

[Ness]

I meant Morague had done the grim reaper outfit at VS.

I couldn't care who was responsible for what regarding startup files.

[verdaeni]

shrug.  i have a copy of the outfit someplace because there was a grim reaper in a house on the maxis site  that had him there,  i got the outfit with the lei on it.  so im not sure if its part of the testingcheats enabled package or from when ive downloaded it.  that grimmy had an inheritable grim head too, but it kinda got lost with expansions and it went to some neutral face. 

[verdaeni]

with testing cheats enabled on you can use shiftn to get to most of the costume stuff, it was written there.   but the user had trouble getting them to work so i gave them the configuration file i use so i dont have to remember how to type in the cheats correctly.   since it turn it on at the start of the game as well i dont have that tiresome job of remembering to type it in in the neighborhood before entering a house or having to exist the house and come back in the get them working.  i THINK  then it shows uip in CAS but im not sure because i have a grimmy costume from a house download from long ago.  all together now?

[verdaeni]

your point is what?  is your page down key broken?   someone might have wanted to steal it.  if not, pescado can send me a bill for the nanosecond extra it took in web time to transmit and the whole 2K extra characters.

Hey kmlough, I'm glad you made it here and I still need to look at the rest of your buglist.  (gilmorefan here).

[Nailati]

I can't help with the Reaper outfit, but I wanted to say that I thought the aliasing thing was neat. Didn't know about it before. *steals*

[witch]

I think that discussing problems thoroughly, coming up with creative ways to resolve issues and sharing game hints and techniques is exactly what MATY is all about.

Personally I prefer an anarchic MATY, that's what brought me here, not people controlling threads or conversations.

[Morague]

You can find the Grim reaper outfit (with ot without the lei) & invisible hair at

[verdaeni]

hey gilmorefan, so you are the blue soup!

well its a game, so nothing we do here is actually NECESSARY.

didnt know you guys up here knew about my buglist at maxis.  its actually half the size it was bedore.  my mission now is to figure out whats really left and shame them into fixing more of the bugs if possible, or at least get fixes or workarounds for the rest.  i have to run the new list through awk,  but i think we have something like 90% of them with fixes or workarounds.     i mean, hello, if pescado or twojeffs has already fixed it, why cant they?   but its getting real confusing with maxis thinking they fixed a problem, but they just lessened it,  and maybe its still happening,  and sometimes coding in a fix to one thing fixes something else and people are still reporting bugs when they havent installed the patches yet..  which you know, being a programmer its not that hard to make a single superpatch that reads your config and installs whatever patches you have the software for.  i had a backup software installation program that did that.

muchos thanks, I finally got boolprop to work.

For some reason I saw a Grim Reaper Sim on the Exchange on thesims2.com.  I'm not quite sure I'd trust it though.  It even has the hula lei.

There are probably quite a few, and they should be mainly either SimPE-extracted or constructed by way of debug mode or Morague's stuff. Not really all that likely to be anything wrong with it -- it's just a Sim that looks like the in-game reaper, that's all. I picked one up myself so that when I wanted to use it I wouldn't have to assemble all the pieces myself in CAS.
