Hi, I just want to say that I’m in love with your genetically correct premades project, I’m deeply considering replacing them on my neighborhoods as soon as I can because of it. My biggest concern is that the only method that I know to “replace” them is through placing the clone to the family bin in the neighborhood where the Subject Sim (the one who needs the new genetics) lives and SimSurgery from there. Ask 1/2
My question is, is it possible to replace the new genetics without dealing with clones in the bin? Sorry this is a mess, Google has so far given me the one method I mentioned previously. Ask 2/2
Hello, complicatedmerary! There is indeed a way to simsurgery the premades without having the clone clutter up your neighbourhood’s family bin. I tried to look for the tutorial that taught me how to do it but I just couldn’t find it, so I made my own. Hope you and others can still understand it.
Edited 4th July 2019: I forgot to give a heads up that the plugin will override a sims genes with what the clone sim has on. So if you would like a sim to carry both parents genes and not just what they have now, here’s a tutorial that shows you how to edit a sims DNA (link)
1) Your gonna need to download this SimPE plugin by Theo, that allows you to use a Sims package file (The file that bodyshop stores in SavedSims Folder, whenever you save a sim/projects) to replace another sims feature. Make sure you then place the plugin inside SimPE’s plugin folder, as shown below.
2) Because I shared the GC sims in Sim2Pack files. Your gonna need to “install” them in order to get their sims package file. Place their sims package in a folder you’ll remember and rename each sim package. If your gonna replace a bunch of sims your gonna need to know which sim package is who’s. The plugin doesn’t show a preview of the sims in the replace tab.
3) Now you can open up SimPE and after opening the neighbourhood that has the sim/s you wish to replace with open Tools –> Neighbourhood –> Alt Sims Surgery
4) Once it finishes loading your then gonna search for the sim you want to replace in the sims pool (on the right) and select their profile pic and then click use on the Patient Sim tab. Then on the Archetype Sim tab, you click on load instead of use, you then go to the folder you placed the sim package file (of the sim you wish to replace with). While the picture won’t show up, you’ll know you loaded up the sim when you see the package filename being shown under name.
From there you can choose if you want only certain features to be replaced (like clicking the face only tab so that only a sims face feature is replaced while the rest stay the same) if your happy with the Archetype Sim replacing everything (Everyday outfit, Makeup, DNA and Face Feature) of the patient sim then don’t click on anything else and just click surgery, on the bottom right corner.
And now when you load up the neighbourhood, you’ll see your sim replaced with the look you wanted and not have to worry about clones walking about.
