Title: Moving to a new world Post by: Nonni on January 20, 2009, 07:59:19 pm This may be something very old and boring but it was a new discovery for me. This lastest discovery is important to me because the 1st world I created was getting over-crowded. I found out how to move surplus Sims to my newly created world and I am very happy and proud of me. (I had another breakthrough but am too embarassed to admit that one because my daughter said she knew that without playing the game.) Maybe I missed something in the tutorial or the instructions.

I hope I never get so jaded that I cannot enjoy the simple pleasure someone gets from making a new discovery. Happy simming and, above all, have fun with your games.

Nonni You do it by saving the families, entering the saved families in the new 'hood and then removing the families from the old? I think that this "move" is not perfect, meaning that moved Sims forget the relationships they had in the older neighborhood. Frex, if A1 from family A and B1 from family B are friends, and both A and B families move from 'hood x to 'hood y, A1 and B1 will become strangers - I think. Title: Re: Moving to a new world Post by: Nonni on January 22, 2009, 03:34:41 am Thanks for the positive input. This is how I was able to move a family or person from old neighborhood to the new:
Save house with family or person then move their house to the house bin with the people still in the house. Then go to the new hood and move the house from the bin onto lot in the new hood and the person/persons are still in the house but now in new neighborhood. The bad news is, yes, they lose all friends/relatives from old world. You will get a warning before you move them to house bin. If they had a business they lose that also. I have only done this with people who are fairly new and have always taken their family with them. It kinda reminds me of "Dorothy" when her house was taken "over the rainbow". However, if you move the Sims back to "Kansas" they won't know anyone there. Thanks again, Nonni |
