1  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Families & Groups / Half-Life's Freeman Family (+CowPlant) on: November 07, 2007, 09:25:58 am
Greetings again!
This is my second release, following 'The Creeps Next Door' Halloween Special
http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=64732

I am using University, Nightlife, Open for Business

This was a project of mine to somewhat recreate the famed Gordon Freeman from the Half-Life series, along with Alyx Vance and eventually a Servo named Dog.

I had packaged this at an earlier date but had put work in since then and figured it better to have the tediums out of the way.

This package contains:
A nice, well-furnished, small two-story house
1 Male Univ Grad NaturalScience Ecological Guru
1 Female Univ Grad ShowBiz Icon
1 Male Servo Military General
1 Cowplant!!!

-Bio included-

Aspirations & Skills:
All Knowledge (as they were originally). They had Lifetime Wants of Maxing Out 7 Skills which I all ready completed before packaging, so they are permanently PLATINUM, (or should be) excepting the Servo 'Dog'. I checked and realized that the Sims are halfway through their lifespans but have nearly 200,000 Aspiration points each and perma-Platinum, thus you can Elixir of Life them easily whenever you want.

Education:
Gordon is a Univ grad with a Summa Cum Laude in Biology
Alyx is a Univ grad with a Summa Cum Laude in Political Science
Dog has no formal education

COWPLANT:  (Laganphyllis Simnovorii)
One of the main reasons I'm releasing this is to give easy access to the esteemed Cowplant of Doom, a lovable semi-friendly Simnivor. Its in a special 'observation room' on the second floor with a big glass window to look in and a glass door. Make sure the door is Locked for Household Only. And never tell a Household Sim to Grab The Cake unless you want them eaten. Visiting Sims, if the door is unlocked, are often tempted to Grab The Cake which will have them then eaten. This can work to your benefit however, after eating a Sim the Cowplant can be milked and the fluid-soul drank to restore days of the Sims life just like the Elixir of Life. To avoid this, lock the door, or otherwise feed the Cowlant via clicking and optioning, whenever it is hungry, visible when it sticks its cake like tongue out (it has a burning candle, hard to miss, see thumbnail). Note, it can be stuffed into an invetory and carried to another lot, including into the University by a young adult (remember to bring it back!) (EDIT Note: ) A tried-and-true method of Cowplant milking, though in this case it may require a different room, is to invite a visitor to the house, run to the room the Cowplant is in, Call Over the visitor, run back out of the room and either remove the door or wall in the room wherever you can to prevent the visitor's escape. Usually, its only a matter of time before curiosity\hunger kills the visitor. If the visitor decides they want to leave, they will not Grab The Cake. Happy Hunting\Haunting!

Badges:
All members of this household have the Gold Robotics Badge and can make Servos and any lesser robot. Very much ideal if you wish to add more Servos to the neighborhood or open up (my personal favorite) a Robotics Store!
"Let the Technological Revolution Begin In Your Home Today!"

Other rewards:
General Dog has not placed his Training Course, no room.
Alyx has the Dr. Vu's Plastic Surgery Machine, notably not terribly useful, but should you ever want to alter a Sim's face it would come in handy

Cash:
Over $132K

(Important) NOTES
Gordon's Work: Gordon works 1 day a week for extended hours, bringing home lots of bacon! And smelling like it too! SOMETIMES GORDON WILL NOT LEAVE OR GET THE QUEUE TO LEAVE FOR WORK, IN THIS EVENT, TELL HIM TO DRIVE TO WORK. While at work, all of his Needs\Motives will max out! Except for Hygiene which will be a Red 0 upon his return. The EcoGuru has the greatest work outfit evar!

Clutter: I placed 2 Robotics Workbenches upstairs, one of which is obscuring the Cowplant's observation window, feel free to move it, sell it, whatever. One can not obstruct the Simnivor!

Appearence: I know Alyx Vance\Freeman looks dissimilar from the HL-2 Alyx, sorry. Gordon is reasonable portrayal, I think. And of course, Gordon is not a Physics major in this lot.

Currently Out: At the point of packaging, Gordon and Alyx are at work, Dog is home alone.

Closing:
I hope you enjoy these two\three Sims, I put a lot of work into them. Enjoy the use of the Cowplant, for decor or more sinister purposes. And if so inclined, best of luck on your new family, business venture or army of robots!
Also feel free of course to have them take different jobs, they're well qualified. Have fun and take care!


Enjoy! Comments, suggestions, requests, any\and all feedback is appreciated and looked forward to!

Greetings!
This is my first post ever so please bare with me.

I'm using Univ,Nightlife,OFB.

I made these just prior to Halloween to share with some friends but I thught it'd be a nice bunch for your neighborhood too.

This package contains:

1 Female Unviersity(Philosiphy) Summa Cum Laude Grad Cult Leader
1 Moved-In Count Vampire
1 Moved-In Contessa Vampire
1 Moved-In Mr.Big (Vampire)
1 Moved-In Diva (Vampire)
1 Zombie (Grilled Cheese Aspiration)

Admittedly, the house is not very good, but they have enough cash (roughly $300K?) on-hand to move into a mansion. No cheats were used in the making of this family or lot.

I filled out a family bio and bios for each individual in the house, accessible via the notepad icon above the fitness bar in Simology.

Note: The identical name of London was a coincidence I storytold upon, I'm not really incredibly sick.

This is really just to add easy, accessible vampires in the neighborhood, a zombie to play with a Cult Leader\Univ grad that could take another profession.

I hope you enjoy and keep an eye out for possible future releases by me!
