    I’ve seen a lot of simmers say they do this but you’re the first person to actually explain how to do it without MCCC just selecting households you don’t want to include. Thank you!!!

    I have so many weirdly dressed townies it’s nuts specially the procedurally generated from University. The townies from Selvadorada are better styled and make sense with their surroundings.

    I can't wait to try this!! Just wondering though, if you have it set for them to move into empty houses will they still be npc's? Like unplayed npcs? I dont mind having tgem move in but i dont want them listed as played households.

    • @simmymom
      @simmymom  11 місяців тому

      They will only be played if you open their house and play them. But even if they list as played sims you can easily remove them from that list.

    This is so helpful! Thank you! Can I ask if you have your MCCC set to allow marriage and have sims move in together? I tried to set that up but had so many pairings I didn't like like elders married to YA's... not that that's bad but it happened way too often.

      For partners you have to click which ages you want to allow and also the percentage you want each age to get pregnant. I could not tell you where to find them exactly bc I don’t remember but they’re there, those are the things you have to adjust to stop the elders from getting pregnant or married

      @hycynth82828 2 роки тому +1

      You do have to click around tho, I think some are in population settings, some in wohoo settings??? Some in pregnancy but there are also areas where it says “other partners” (something like idk). I truly don’t remember the names, I always struggle to find them, BUT I recommend that one day you have time to sit and check every single box of mccc until you find them and adjust them the way you want them, when I want to start over with mcc it takes me about an hour, but when the settings are already settle and I just wanna change some little things it’s pretty fast. I also recommends doing it in one setting because for some changes you’ll need to re start the game

      @@simmymom yes! I personally prefer mcc than neighbours stories because I like that you can choose the cheating percentage, how manu people to get married, and how many to get married after getting pregnant, it comes up with some interesting things that motivates me to try new things and play with family I didn’t think about! I’m a genetics freak so I have the pregnancies at a really high percentage LOL😭

      The random clothes rarely bother me either. I hate the name repeats more, it makes them hard to keep track of. Judging people's clothes in a game is somehow worse than judging them in real life. If people see someone dressed like that in real life would they be mocked? Probably. Why do it in a game?

      Sometimes it takes some time for the game
      To generate them. They don’t automatically show up. You have to play for a bit and then as the game needs to generate more townies it will put from there
