Quote from: SimMoon
If anyone reads Terry Prachet's Disc World series, his werewolves are backward. They are human during a full moon. LOL!!


That actually sounds cool.

Hrmm.. none of the sims that have gotten "nibbled" by the leader of the pack wanted to be werewolves.  But a few sims I've had have had the whole "be a werewolf" as a want.  Kind of an odd thing to want, eh?  A few of my other sims have "be a werewolf" as a fear so I imagine you gotta play it safe.

I still haven't made a vampwolf yet.. if anyone here has.. post some screenshots on this thread.. purty please...

It was actually this guy

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gervase_of_Tilbury

Who brought the full moon into the werewolf legend but as you'll see in his bio, very few bought into his idea until Hollywood did.

Wiki is cool

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werewolf

Almost every country had their own folklore and most of them were different.  But you can't blame Hollywood for going with the Latvian myth of a wolf beast.  If a man turned into a wolf that wouldn't really be scary.  But a man with killer wolf attributes.. now that's a bit more frightning.

I also like how in Underworld 2 they play the evolution card.  The first werewolf was werewolf permantley and they used evolution as a way to explain why they were later able to change back and finally they were able to change whenever.  Gotta give him props for applying evolution to the supernatural.  

Which reminds me.. the prequel should be getting underway soon.

I just had a long discussion on another board about the werewolf myth.  Some folkore says they turned into wolves during the full moon, others say they were a mix of the two.  It just comes down to which folkore you prefer.  I tend to prefer the hybrid because it reminds me more of greek and egyptian mythology.

Ginger Snaps, the movie I mentioned on another werewolf thread.. really has an interesting spin.  But I wont spoil what that interesting spin is.  Just do yourself a favor and rent it if you like werewolves and good indie horror flicks.  There's a prequel that they show on cable called Ginger Snaps: Back or something like that.. avoid it.  It isn't that it sucks but it just shouldn't be watched before the first one Smiley.

Gonna try it in a minute and pop a few screenshots..

Good find...

This was the body builder sim prior to the mod...


The body builder sim after the mod...


One thing that needs to be said..

How can I put this..

Ok.. like I may have said in the faq.. the sims don't always change back during the day.  Sometimes they still look like werewolves but they just don't have the powers..

If you apply this mod and then start the sims.. it may be during the day and your custom skinned sim may still be wolfed out but still have the normal skin tone and face... however.. once the night comes and the animation kicks in again.. the mod will take affect.  

Gotta give props to the guy who made this mod.. it seems to works like a charm..

You're welcome Smiley

There are questions and answers scattered all over this board.. best to try to put em all in the same place.

1.) How do the sims become werewolves?

a.) There are two ways for a sim to become a werewolf in pets.  The first way is to get bitten by the leader of the pack which is just a black wolf with glowing eyes.  If you're friends with this wolf and he visits your lot between the hours of 20:00 and 6:00.. he may "nibble" your sim and turn him or her.  Once your sim becomes a werewolf that sim can "savage" another sim in the same age group and spread the curse to them.  An adult werewolf cant savage a teen and a teen cant savage an adult.. has to be within the same age group.

2.) Once a sim is a werewolf, is he or she always a werewolf or does he or she turn at certain times?

a.) The cursed sim will go through the transformation every night between the hours of 20:00 and 6:00.  At 6:00 the sim will transform back, sometimes.  Once in awhile there's a glitch and the transformation back doesn't happen.  Your sim won't be able to savage, howl, or call other wolves but the sim will still look like the werewolf.  This seems to be merely a bug, it eventually fixes it self the next morning..

3.) My custom sims don't seem to turn into werewolves, why?

a.) Custom sims can be cursed but the only thing that will change on the custom male when he changes is the hair on his head and he'll have the werewolf menu.  Custom skins and I believe custom eyes, do not get furry, not sure why, not even sure if I wanna know why.  Female sims keep their default or custom hair by default during a transformation.  I guess maxis figured female werewolves like to keep their beautiful hair when they change..

4.) Are there any cheats to get werewolves right away?

a.) No.  But there is a quicker way to get the leader of the pack to at least visit.  Type "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" in the console box.. then hold down on the shift key.. right click on the mail box.. click on make npc.. you may then need to click on "more" and then you'll see something about the leader of the pack.. click on that.  Within an hour the glowing eye wolf will come.. show him a lot of affection.. and keep using that cheat to call him back every time he leaves.  By the next night he'll nibble you.. that is if you showed him enough affection the night before.

5.) Can werewolves breed?

a.) yes

6.) Do they pass on the curse to their offspring?

a.) It doesn't appear that they do, sad, huh?

7.) Do the werewolves bite their own children?

a.) No, as it states above.. adult werewolves cannot "savage" teens or children.

If there are any other questions that should be added to this.. just post em Wink...

I'm assuming that when Simpe gets updated for Pets, you'll be able to just switch em fast that way.  But time will tell...
