« on: July 15, 2011, 06:15:59 PM »
I've read somewhere that someone has manged to bring back the tragic clown to life. I really like to do that too, though don't know how. His ghost doesn't apear on the graveyard at night so it seems. Any info would appreciated.

Perhaps, with less other ghosts around he would be more likely to appear? Have a klepto steal him and place him on their homelot.

Yes, I was thinking about stealing also. Although I wonder if sims actually can steal a grave. Anyway, I will try out right away.

Simple. Just like you'd do with any other ghost from the graveyard. First, your Sim must be a kleptomaniac to be able to steal his tombstone from the graveyard. Just wait till it's past 19:00 and click near his grave. Select 'Swipe Something'. It may not work from the first try, but you have two more tries. Afterward, wait till your Sim gets the Oh My Ghost opportunity. In the meantime I recommend learning the recipe of Ambrosia. After getting the opportunity and thus bringing Tragic's ghost with yourself home, be sure to feed him Ambrosia. And there you go - he's alive again. :)

I was under the impression that gravestones that are originally in the graveyard, you cannot move.  I went into a game where I had previously placed some gravestones from my sims inventory and I can pick those up, but any other gravestones I could not pick up.  Back to the point I was actually going to make, when I went to the graveyard to have my sim fish, I did happen to notice the Tragic Clown ghost, which I had only seen him one other time.  Leto, you could also take Ambrosia to the cemetary, but that is a long shot.  I have only had that work once. :)
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

You mean you can take Ambrosia to the cemetary, and leave it out so the ghosts might eat it and become alive again? That would be such a cool concept, I'm dreaming of the possibilities already.

It would be cool if anyone could post a picture of the tragic clown dead or alive, I'd be interested in what he actually looks like.

I'm trying at the moment, to bring The Tragic Clown back to life. So far I've got the grave but his ghost never shows up. :/
It's now on week 3 day 5 and still no ghost. Does anybody know how to help spawn his ghost?

It's completely up to the ghost when to show up. In a dynasty attempt, I had Erik Darling's tombstone on my lot for around two weeks, in hopes to catch his ghost, but he never bothered to show up. It's also worth to note that there were no other tombstones on the lot.

Sometimes if you have a sim mourn at their grave, that might help.  I am sure it is purely coincidental, but they seem to show up sooner if a sim mourns.  I think they come out whenever they are good and ready.  In my Redhouse story, it was around 6 or 7 sim days and finally Christopher came out and then I followed him around with ambrosia, until finally I just left it alone and then he ate it.

I have taken ambrosia to the cemetary before and just left it on the ground and I was lucky enough that the sim I had left it for actually ate it.  Now mind you, this was before the ghosts started coming out of their graves and heading for parts unknown.  I have not tried it since the ghosts do the vanishing acts, so to speak, lol.  Since I have seen the Tragic Clown now twice, it is making me want to try to bring him back.  He doesn't really look any different than any other sim, mine had a top hat on and that was it.  I thought he would look like an actual clown, but I guess not. :)

Well, the tragic clown is a little disappointing - I thought he would look more clown like. I still want to try the ambrosia thing myself someday lol.

Haha; clown wanted, dead or alive. It still sounds funny to me. Let us know if you succeeded please, I am interested.

Okay, so I've just brought the Tragic Clown back to life by using Ambrosia. But I don't know how to post pictures on here? Can somebody tell me how to?  :)

Sure, upload them to here and right click on a picture and select the adress or URL to here.
You have to remember that pictures only apears here if you start it with typing [ img ] ThanPasteHereYourImageURL[ /img ]. Whatever is within the [ img ] and the[ /img ] should be the URL so the forum will recognize it as the picture to show. Don't forget to remove the spaces in the [ url ] and the [ /url ] parts. I had to type them because otherwise the forum would recognize it wrong.
If you forget to place the url and /url text's the forum will see your picture as a link to the swapshop, instead of a picture itself.
