It's kinda annoying cause you can't do anything when a sim dies, cause you can't move or anything.. even deleting the sim, you can't move, and have to start over without saving if a sim dies... just so you can move and edit the town and all.

Well, here's my problem.  I decided to kill a sim because I was bored.  A random neighbor that kept knocking down my trash can anyway.
She just lay there dead as dead could be, in that curled up dead position while another sim stood there and cried.
No grim reaper!
I waited 5 minutes. Still no Grim Reaper!
After another 15 minutes, no grim reaper.  I had my sims going about their lives; but still no Grim Reaper. I exited without saving and went to another new neighborhood, randomly selected a household, killed a sim, and same thing.
I've removed my recent hacks and stuff; the Grim Reaper was appearing just fine yesterday.

Is it something wrong with the game itself?
I forced NPC but the Grim Reaper just stood there.
I did "resetsim Grim Reaper" and still nothing.
It's happening in all my neighborhoods.
It's kinda annoying even if it is funny to see a dead sim just laying there like a lump...

Oh, another thing I did was deleted the cache files.

I have the base game, World Adventures, and the latest patch.

Thanks for any help!

I do not have the Awesomemod or Twellans Supercomputer; just thought I'd add that in here.

Turns out it was one of the mods I had. Problem is now fixed, and Grimmie is visiting when a sim dies!
Another problem was I'd somehow managed to get a Girl Doll Dressed thing somewhere... Not sure if any of you heard of it, but it's a corrupted item somebody made that attaches itself to other items and can end up in your game without you even realizing it and slow down loading time and other troubles.
Found that in the game too, deleted it, got rid of it, and a few other issues I have been having stopped too.

Heh I feel inadequate now XD
I only have 6 gigs of downloads for the Sims 2 and over 500 files for the Sims 3 already since getting it a month ago XD

LOL I don't have ambitions yet.. I am very low on money and waiting for it to drop in price or a friend to buy it for me XD

I have World Adventures though - Anyway, my Mad Scientist futzing around expirimenting and caught the counter on fire, and the fire fighter came and stood there doing.. NOTHING! Just stood there and watched while my sim put out the fire!
Then he KEPT standing there; wouldn't leave.  I couldn't interact with him or anything.. but then I used a mod to catch him on fre.
He didn't die!  He just stood there freaking out.
I took videos - though didn't think to take pictures.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJTfVUTEPQE Here, my sim, an elder ghost Mad Scientist (He's insane, and neurotic.. he does the WEIRDEST things sometimes and makes me laugh hard.. he just went back to the Netherworld last night XD )

This, is when I caught the firefighter on fire. I was laughing HARD the whole time, and HAD to take a video.
I deleted him afterwards because 5 minutes later he was still there freaking out....

The Embed didn't work so I posted links to the Youtube video...
Anyway enjoy!

( Bloom, I had to laugh at yours.. I've done that repeatedly LOOOOOOL )

Those ones are pretty good too; just it looks a little funny with Sims walking around everywhere with their wings spread (That's why I've been looking left and right for them and had little luck.
I WOULD love to see what you can do with them :3

So far, I've found a few wings for the Sims 3 but none of them are very good. The best is Rosesims, but the texture isn't the very good, and it doesn't look that good recolored.. even though the recolor would be what I would be using.
Not to mention no detail to shade in....
I want wings with detailing for the feathers, and a few different recolor options.. I'd do it myself but I don't know how to mesh nor do I have the programs nor do I have the money to buy the programs needed... and even if I had the money and the programs I don't know heads or tails of them.
I want wings that attach to the shoulders, like Syn's do for the Sims 3, but bigger, and more real looking.  Recolorable, of course, with the feathers, feather edges, maybe banding, and the lines between feathers to make it look a little more detailed in the end.
I want them to be folded naturally; not spread out wide like some of the wings I have seen; and not detail less like some of the others.
If anybody could do that I would love them to death forever... and like be enslaved to them for LIFE...
And I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd appreciate wings like that.

Something like this:
The meshes attaching to the sims shoulder so the wings seem to move separately as the sim moves instead of moving stiffly with the sim.. it just seems more alive and real.
:3 (Yeah that was sketched up real quick on my tablet WHOO TABLET! )

Lol I have tons! (YAY my thread suggestion got made! *dancy* )

A labor face XD


Erichar is insane - he is being weird! XD


Most Epic face EVER!


Erichar pulls a lot of funny expressions....


Larem in the Bath XD


Erichar randomly choking himself 0o he did it a lot while he was still alive XD


More of his random freak out XD


A look he pulled ALLL the time XD


"Yuck!"


"My ear itches! 0.0;;"

Those are my sims Erichar and Larem... Larem is the white haired, Drow looking one. He's Childish, Loser, Coward, Clumsy, and Easily Impressed.  He is ADORABLE as HECK XD He pulls cute expressions.

Erichar is the dark haired one... He's Insane, Neurotic, Green Thumb, Vegetarian, and Good Sense of Humor.
I got a lot of funny faces when he just randomly started acting like he was choking, hands around his neck and all, then complained and ran to the other room...
He does a lot of amusing things... and some of his expressions while just sitting there make me laugh.

Here is the FIRST POST WHOOOT


Here's my new sim; used a custom skin tone to make him pitch black (Unlocked grim reaper skin I think ) and something from MTS for the glowing white eyes.  I think he looks awesome.. He's hydrophobic, and I made him swim.. poor, poor Shadow XD

When you are cooking, and as you cook you think you are doing the sims animations
(Really, today I was cooking and I;d stand for a moment, then wave the smell and sniff.. and even tasting from time to time XDDD I was thinking "LOL this is like the Sims when they cook... !" The whole time!)

Because this world is unfair, and they want us to suffer with the horror that is Mary Sue - *cough* - Bella Swan forever....

Why do snakes look so funny when they swallow a mouse whole? (Really! XD I fed my snake yesterday and it looked all weird with the mouse halfway down and the tails ticking out of his mouth XD )

Kill Bill (It rhymes! XD)

Python or Iguana?

Hm.. never got the PM for some reason 0o Unless you sent it after I checked.. Yeah it came in after I checked, I don't log into Synaptic Lair that often. I have accounts all over Sims Sites, but my favorites are here and MTS.
But yeah I understand... though it saddens me that the Sims 3 will be without the most awesome wings ever made for the Sims lol
I just love how they don't seem so stiff compared to the sim; I love how they move with the sim instead of all stiffly against its back ( LOL over half of my sims in TS2 have those wings XD )

When you have the irrpressible urge to wave your hands and whine gibbrish when something blocks your path

When you see a house and think "I can make that in the sims!"

When you see an ugly person and wonder why Maxis' original content is so ugly, then realize it's a real person

When you wish you could just use the motherlode cheat when you're low on money

Iced Tea! Cause it's hot here and I hate coffee XD

Eyes or Ears?

Oh.. veeerrryyyy well taken care of *griin* ( lol )

Why do cats love to be places they aren't allowed to be?

Seems pretty self explanatory.  Come up with "You know you play the Sims too much when..." jokes!

Mine: You know you play the Sims too much when you imagine little green or red people symbols with the + or - symbols when talking to your friends.
