21st May 2007, 02:19 AM	How to keep my saved sim forever? #1
nohowdoit Original Poster Test Subject Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 27	I know how to save my sim, by the sims surgery and exporting it. The problem i'm having (I'm not sure if I'm the only one who's having this problem, or if this is normal) is that I can choose my saved sim from "create a family" but while the sim at play gets old the "copied" sim in the creat a family also grows old with it. I'm afraid that when the orginal sim dies, the copied sim will also disappear. Is it just me? How do I keep my copied sim in creat a family forever?
