According to the wiki, any inactive Sim (who's not already a supernatural Sim) can become a zombie during a full moon and remains a zombie for 48 hours.

In addition to what IAmTheRad said, you can download clean basic hoods here: http://meetme2theriver.livejournal.com/63030.html However, I should warn you that it's time consuming and you have to be careful because you have to modify the game files and may have to reinstall the game if something goes wrong. I wrote a tutorial back when I was a huge nerd about Sims, but it's so old that Apartment Life and Mansions and Gardens weren't out yet: http://simgaroop.dreamwidth.org/36499.html If you have the Ultimate Collection I am pretty sure the location of the game folders has changed slightly, but most of the instructions should still work. Nowadays, I prefer to use default replacements to get rid of the horrible sandals with socks and ridiculous "rave" outfits that the default Maxis townies are so fond of. For example, these are default Maxis townies from my game using clothing replacements:  Here is the biggest source of default replacements, including skintones, eyes, hair, makeup and clothing: http://sims2defaults.dreamwidth.org/

Reminder that they put a hidden object minigame into the load screen for the Sims 3. And most of the time you could get through at least 2 full picture sets.

I did download a mod that disables the "zombies spawn on a full moon" thing so I'm safe there. Hopefully. You have to set the gate to "household only" before the zombies spawn. It will consider the enclosed area a "private space" and prevent NPC sims from entering. Anyway, the zombies were total bullshit. It's a shame, because all the other supernatural modes in that pack were really fun to play around with. Into The Future was really good stuff, too, although some of the plumbot behaviors were kind of... off when interacting with other expansion content. I had one that refused to do anything except obsessively mix drinks for like several days after I threw a house party.

Zombies were just stupid in Sims 3. I had a mod that made zombies ignore plants completely. They still showed up, but they were out for brains instead of grains.

Ugh. Trying to reinstall my whole Sims 3 package, and for some reason Supernatural refuses to be uninstalled. I've had this problem before, and I'm pretty sure it's due to my straight up deleting Sims 3 in the past - and now it's preventing me from installing Supernatural at all, lingering in Programs and Features. I've poked around in the Registry, but it literally doesn't seem to be there at all. Has anyone else run into this?

It's funny, I booted up the Sims 3 after not playing it for ages. At some point they added this:  If you have more than two expansions or DLC packs selected. ...guess that's one solution to their crappy optimization

If I can't have my interior decorator black belt vampire live on a boat with a horse and a roller coaster while dressed as candy with a jetpack, it's not the best game experience.

So, 2 questions Are there any hair mods you all can recommend? Conceptually, I like all the anime/fashion inspired hairstyles of groups/simmers like PralineSims or Peggy, but when it's actually in game, it looks like wispy trash that sticks out like a sore thumb. Any direction to some good hairs that fit within the style of the game would be much appreciated. Question 2 is, where can I give my sim boobs like these? Because if Simantha ain't packin' triple Js, I want nothing to do with her  Please don't tell me

There are some bad things like having Triple Js. You can find good hair at MTS. IAmTheRad fucked around with this message at 07:55 on Feb 3, 2016 |

For a garden pack its a pretty big boon aince it does fit the two premium content mixed with clothes, build items and whatever. Look at it from a Buuld Mode Player's pov.

LGR is going to cut off another part of Ralph with the stuff pack. And mention the chairs. I don't know if he has done it for the Gameplay Packs, since he started it after Spa Day came out. He did cut off 3 stuff packs when Ralph first came out. Of course, he won't touch Ralph for Expansion packs. Those are something else entirely. I guess the next time a Gameplay pack comes out he'll let us know for sure. Unless Ralph is completely cut apart then, or he'll get another Ralph to cut pieces off.

That's a lovely little collection of throwback features. The gardener I especially appreciate, because taking care of even a modest garden is like a full-time job in the Sims. All the  toddler-wanters are gonna start flipping lids now because EA is adding features from Sims 2 to the game .

I was so disappointed when kleptomaniac didn't make it to TS4, I'm real glad to see it return. I loved decorating my home with things my daughter swiped from her elementary school, and it felt wrong having a criminal Sim who couldn't steal (pick-pocketing aside)

I think the garden content pack sounds like a lot of fun, but I love to build community lots. A botanical garden would be fun to build with all the new plants! If only they had build tools for a greenhouse, that would be perfect.

The wishing well is overpowered as hell if you're a cheater. 5k donation will max one random skill every sim day. If you're cheating anyway I guess it does not matter, but it is really cool.

You pay 5K once, and every day another one of your skills becomes maxed out forever? That is super busted, you could just start a new game and buy a crappy house so you can afford to put 5K in the well.

Not to mention there are skills with which you can make back the 5k investment pretty much in a day. It should really be a luxury option that would strain the whole household, but obviously the trend in TS design for years now has been that money must not be an obstacle to gameplay features...
