nurr123 Original Poster Test Subject Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 36	OKAY. so. I've been trying to get my sim to live in france. I'm not trying to make france a playable town or anything, i just want to dump my sim into a household in france. And i'm not trying to play the household i want them in either. But none of the ways i've tried have worked so far. I've tried edit town and marrying them into a family. When They marry a foreign sim, it doesnt give me the option to add them to the unselected household. i was wondering if theres a cheat to override this, or if its just simply impossible.

Plop them down in the household of your choice. Done! I did this in Egypt when the people who wanted their basement untrapped seemed to be away on vacation themselves, making it impossible to gain entry to the house.

In Edit Town mode, you'll see the 3 icons for each of the vacation worlds. Pagoda for China, Eiffel Tower for France and the Pyramids for Egypt.

Click on the world you want to edit, then at that point it's just like editing your home world.

I'm not sure what happens when the vacation times out or if you try to send them home. I've only selected them briefly to cancel actions, edit fugly sims, help my sim in tombs to step on plates when I'm too lazy to push a statue onto it, etc.

	Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.

It would be possible if you copy the French household to the library, place them in your home neigbourhood, move your sim in with them, copy them back to the library, place them in France.

For example, you need to add French Culture for your sims so that they too can be as locals. My suggestion: Twallan NRAAS MasterController Any more question?
