Frozen Sims request
« on: February 24, 2011, 04:12:50 PM »
Hi all, I'm looking for a way to make frozen sims. I know that with The Sims 2 it was possible to effectively turn a sim into a statue like sim when building on a lot where just a sim was visiting. I don't know if this is possible in The Sims 3 also, but I personally don't have the material to test it right now.
If anyone can confirm this will work, or know a way to do it in another way than please let me know. I must have frozen sims for a future video.

The only way I have found till yet, is to have high sculpting skill, and then ask a sim to pose. You can then build a statue of him, but you cannot turn that sim in statue. ;)

Leto, I think the visiting Sim will pose if your Sim asks them to.  I don't know how long they will stay frozen, but when my Sim asked another Sim to pose so she could take a picture of them, the other Sim was frozen in place for a minute or too while my Sim was fidgeting with her camera  :).

Hmm, okey. Thanks guys but that wasn't really what I was looking for.
But still I'm glad reading your posts. Now I know two more ways not to try it. :P

SimBot might be great a solution. Just have one Short Out, and it'll stay there for at least 4 hours. If you want a Sim, then turn on static needs cheat, and the Sim will stand there, doing nothing (if you don't command anything). Or try getting a Sim in a fixed position, and then enter the Buy Mode. There, turn on moveobjects cheat and move the Sim wherever you wish.

That would have worked indeed if I didn't need to go to Tab mode (which only is accecable through Live mode) from where I can start filming in angles and movements you normally can't do in whatever mode you are.

Besides that, I need a sim that stand completely still. Pauze the game might not be an option as I need to have the environment just floating by as it normally does.
Working with greenscreen might be possible, but I still have to test this.
