Meet six of the residents of the Northwest side of Foster's Valley:
From left to right: xxxClaire, Linestra, Sparky, Lynnie, x_dummkoff_x, and Imaginary Light.
A few notes:
The game does not allow teens to be installed without a parent. There are two ways around this; one can install them as adults and use a game hack to turn them back into teens, or one can use any adults present as parents and use another game hack to sever the relationships after installation. When I installed the Foster's cast I went with the former; five IF's went in as adults and were reverted to either teens or children. As it turns out, the game had some fun at my expense with that; it changed everyone's outfits, and it was a time-consuming pain in the tuckus to redress everyone the way they were supposed to be dressed. So for the Forum Sims here, I went with the latter approach. Congratulations to Sparky and Lynnie; you each have two teenage daughters.
Yes, it's only temporary, you will all be unrelated again after I find y'all a six-bedroom house. In the meantime, I'll let you speculate on who got custody of who.
Personalities still require a little tweaking, and interests have not been set, but that will take no significant effort. I have no idea what everyone's Lifetime Wants are at this point, as they aren't created until a Sim is actually moved in. When I know I'll inform y'all; like everything else they can be changed if requested, no problem.
If there is anything you'd like your Sim to be doing or avoiding or any goals you want her to work on, by all means let me know, either here or via PM. Also, please remember that Sims do have a measure of free will, they can be very stubborn sometimes, and I generally let them make their own decisions, therefore
management is not responsible when they do something spectacularly embarrassing before I can stop them. I'll use my discretion when posting, of course.
The Valley isn't full, by the way, so if anyone else wants to get in on the fun, by all means let me know; it's a standing offer with no expiration date and as I said before, open to all.
Finally, you may have noted that the six Forum Sims seen here are all female; this was true in the earlier game, too. No guys ever send me a PM saying "I want in! Here's my pic and stats!" Lots of ways to interpret or misinterpret that fact; I'll leave it to your imaginations to play with.
Excuse me while I now go house-hunting.
