It’s no secret that I hate the weirdos that come with City Living. It’s not because I hate weirdness in The Sims, in fact I love it, but I just can’t stand the sheer amount of Sims that the game decides to generate. In one evening, I’ve ended up with ninenew Sims, including Raccoons, St. Paddy’s Day Elders, Luchadores, and god knows what else. And that number only increases the longer I play.
It’s too much, especially when I already have a
TONNE
of unplayed families and the last thing I want is for them to be culled, all because TS4 would rather make a brand-new townie for each role instead of using one of my existing, unplayed, unhoused Sims.
So I’ve been testing a mod I made that stops them from generating. No more
Raccoons, no more St. Paddy’s Day Elders, no more Luchadores. I’ve kept the “Sim in a bathrobe because he’s been locked out of his apartment” Sims, because, well, my game needs a little weirdness, and they actually serve a purpose (Sims who got locked out of their apartments? Or Sims who had a one-night stand and lost their clothes? You decide!).
As a result, my game only generated two new townies, both of which were towel-wearing weirdoes. No more, no less.
This alsodoes not affect vampire townies from appearing in San Myshuno, as seen below, and the mod will work regardless of if you have the Vampires GP or not.
As usual, I won’t take requests for changes or future mods to make (bug reports are fine), because I mod for my own personal use. I just thought people might find this useful.
Also, because I’ve decided to no longer upload to ModTheSims, this will be the first file to bear the name humanowitz, instead of danburite2 (my MTS name) or kwanzaabot (my Gallery name). Should make it easier for people to track me down and look for updates.
