Post subject: Some Sims 2 stuff
Archived from groups: alt>games>the-sims (more info?)

Was wondering where college students go if they flunk out and they were
generated by the game--ie, they can't go back to their parents' because
they didn't come from any parents' house.

I was in the bathroom when one of my sims flunked out and she just vanished.

Also was wondering, does anyone know a site where I can download one of
the original paintings that came with S2? Something in my game
over-wrote the file and I don't have it anymore. I don't care, except
that I have a teleporter hack that's cloned from that item and now it
won't work.

Also had a laugh when I bought a hot tub for a family and one of the
kids went outside to check it out and pumped his fist and clapped. I
thought, What does he care? He can't even use it.

I'd imagine they end up in the family bin in the neighborhood associated
with the university, but I'm not sure. It's just the only place that makes
sense to me... Wink

Was it one of the townie dorm students? I didn't think it was possible for
them to flunk out unless you had managed to move them in with someone and
get control of them. If you did, then you will likely find them in the sim
bin when you go back to the neighborhood and they will have the memory of
flunking out of college and will be glum about it. But they should also get
the standard $20,000 starting fund if you move them onto their own lot, or
just merge them in with a family already in residence.

I don't think that's possible. You'd have to remove your downloads folder
in order for the original painting to show up again. This is one good
reason to sort your downloads into subfolders. That way, you can remove
just the paintings and put them back a few at a time until you narrow it
down to the offending culprit that way. What's happened is that the creator
of the custom painting failed to change the GUID number and it's replaced
the original. Short of tracking down the offending file and removing it, I
think you are simply screwed. However, if you are talking about the
teleporter picture by Inge, there is also a teleporter shrub by the same
creator that does the same thing. You just have to put it in the yard
instead of in the house.

The only thing a hot tub is good for with a kid is that having one makes it
a bit easier for the family to impress the headmaster to get the kids into
private school. Otherwise, the kid is just exhibiting sim-mentality and
loving an expensive object. Likewise, they always sigh and groan when you
buy a potty chair, even though the only alternative to not having one is
having a toddler who messes his pants until he's old enough for school. :-/

That's right - that's where all students go when they graduate or drop
out. They don't automatically go back to their parents' house.

They aren't in the bin. That's the mystery.

Sims are so shallow.
