Duarte Gere

Duarte Gere is a premade deceased Sim. He is the father of Inigo Gere, and the grandfather of Chastity Gere. Not much is known about him since he is deceased before the start of The Sims 2: Apartment Life. His wife is unknown, according to his memories he had Duarte with his wife who appears to be improperly deleted.

When looking at Duarte's family tree it will appear as if there are more Sims in his family tree, however when clicking on it no extra sims are to be seen. This is due to Duarte's wife being improperly deleted, another reference to this is his memories are getting married to "$Subject" which is a placeholder for a Sim without a character file. When attempting to open his family ties in SimPE, it will crash. If you attempt to package the Gere family to a file, it will crash. It appears that his wife being deleted was a mistake by the developers.
