Forum:Most of You will probably be horrified
Alright, here's my story. I love ghosts. Like seriously...without fail...ghosts are the best thing ever. So...when I got my version of Sims 3, I decided that I simply must have a house full of ghosts. (Yes, I'm using the motherlode cheat...don't judge me) So I had played Sims and Sims2 but that was a million years ago. Anyway, I started off with a regular character, small house, etc...played all day before realizing I could drown my partner and create a ghost, but...I still wanted the Goth house...because...you know...so goth...lol. (and they had their own cemetery...which would increase the ghost sighting, of course.) However, then I decided to use the testing cheats...which then would not permit me to drown anyone else...or do anything to anyone...so I had to start over. I chose the big glass beach house this time...but simply could not drown anyone...something about how the tiled portion around the pool is low enough for the sim to climb out. (also...tried the "sealing the sim into the wall" thing...but it took forever for them to die. (BTW...best idea ever...and easiest way to kill your sim...have them go swimming, remove ladder, build wall around pool...takes a few hours....lovely)
It also took forever to "seduce" the next person to marry me/move in etc. So, finally (this is two full days into play (we had a national holiday) I realized I could just place a new sim (new game, no testing cheat) in the Goth house, drown the Goth family, edit town, paste in a new family, drown them...)((incidentally, you cannot drown children that are too young to "swim"...if you try to seal them into a wall, all your ghosts will talk about is "the crying baby" AND the social worker will STILL show up and stand on your porch AND you will no longer be able to edit town...nightmare..."
So now I've got the Goth household full of ghosts (again, BTW, you have to be married to a person before you drown them to get the "Oh My Ghost" option...if you just move in and drown everyone...then every night the ghosts reset and you have to reintroduce yourself and it boosts your social, but you never get to marry them...)
So, I've got the ghosts from the drowned families plus the Crumplebottoms, elder Goths etc and I took a few from each group to Oh My Ghost...a lovely family of my character and 6 other permanent, playable ghosts...it's a dead man's party...but I want more.
I am planning to murder the entire town of Sunset Valley....
Essentially, I want to create a true ghost town...however...this poses some problems. If you try to "romance" with a live person, your ghost partner (formally your alive partner) will complain...etc..(by the way, your live spouse will revert to a "fianced" status as a ghost...I'm still working on whether I can build up the social and marry my ghost partner (again)) If you want to ignore that, the amount of energy spent moving from household to household , wooing a character and drowning the rest is a daunting task at best.
If you are not horrified by my pretty tale, I wouldn't mind a little advice from more experienced players. Is there a way to use 'edit town' to speed up this process? Anyway...I haven't quite decided how to go about this and I will tell the second chapter if and when I decide to move forward. Thanks much!
