Over and over again, each time he would try to woo hoo, some random person hanging out at the castle would come into his bedroom and use his chamberpot. -_- (A few sims wound up being sent to the stocks after that.)

There should really be a way to lock the doors, or even just admit family only (ie. castle staff).

I also find it severly annoying !! There must be a way to lock doors or use a private flag..
Simply sending them to the stocks wont do either, as they come back 24 hours later...and killing them doesnt help either, as new generations of ambassadors arrive :P

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post - but I keep thinking about the issue with annoying NPCs swarming everywhere in the hero's private rooms and using his things. I noticed that most NPCs - except for the monarch's councellor, for some reason - do not use the hero's bed. Everything else, but NOT the bed. So I'm wondering, maybe there's a sort of "private" flag set on the beds? And maybe that flag could be "exported" to other objects or, even better, to entire rooms? Although I'm not sure whether there really are "rooms" that the game recognizes as such ...
Also, maybe if it were possible to gain some access at least to the doors in this remnant sims 3-build mode -thingy I saw around the forum, they could somehow be altered there, to be lockable?
And lastly, there seem to be a lot less NPCs at some locations, the sorcerer's tower for example. There must be something, some sign or whatever that draws them to the other places - like in Sims 3, where you have these "visitors not wanted" / "visitors wanted" flags for community lots.

I know, not too interesting, these little findings, but since I really REALLY hate those invading NPCs more than anything else, I wanted to try at least to be as helpful as my little self can with getting rid of them ...

My theory is that locations with lots of uninvited guests all have some kind of draw to them. Note that the blacksmith's responsibilities often have the item recipient coming to the blacksmith shop to pick up their order. I think that draws NPCs randomly as well for some reason. The merchant's shop draws NPCs most obviously when opened, but I notice a lot congregating at all times inside the building too. Tavern is obvious. Castle as well. Clinic I get a lot downstairs, almost never any upstairs. Wizard's tower I never have randoms. Spy tower never. Barracks I get some on occasion, but usually they avoid the bedroom. The churches both have NPCs constantly.

Conclusion I draw is that some buildings and (maybe) rooms are flagged while others have a different draw (like the blacksmith shop). More effective than a privacy setting on rooms might be (as suggested in another thread on this topic) a mod to disable the need for privacy. That is, a mod that would allow sims to woohoo and whatever else without privacy. Not so great for storyliners but helpful for those of us just trying to work through the game.

Plus all those Sims really slow the game down.

Starting swordfights, using the monarch's bath, eating the food prepared for the monarch, and messing around with the strategy table would all be serious offenses in the middle ages.

RiottheRedcap Test Subject Join Date: May 2008 Posts: 12	I may have found an issue with the 'Edit in CAS' mod (it could be from something else, but I"m not positive. I have no idea how to mod.) Basically I had clicked the CAS hack option on another hero sim (who wasn't active) to adjust something on her. When I went to play her next I noticed that her 'change clothing' option has nothing in there, no bedclothes or anything. If I try to go into either 'plan outfit' or CAS hack it just stays on the loading screen and won't progress further. If she tries to sleep in a bed it un-selects because she doesn't have any bedclothes. So, this could be something from the hack. I'm not 100% sure that it's from the CAS hack, or some other glitch. BTW, besides this little trouble, I seriously love the CAS hack. ^_^ It's been really useful.

I also added a Wrapper for S3PE. Instructions on how to add it are in the readme.txt in the .zip. I hope they make sense. @zano972: If Zach's suggestion of switching off Preview doesn't work, you could try to use the Wrapper I posted today. Off to bed now...

You are my hero! Any chance of a hairier version?

Just kidding, this is such a great improvement!

I tried editing the Resource.cfg file to include sub-folders like in TS3 but it didn't work...

Weird. I have almost all my stuff in sub-folders and they work just fine. I know I got my Resource.cfg file from here too. I'm pretty sure it was the one that came with the no mosaic mod because that's the first thing I installed.

It's a default skin, you can only have one default skin in the game.

You are seriously the best!

Does this body replacement work with the sliders? Or does this body replace all of the male Sims' bodies (even heavy Sims)?

EDIT: Never mind! Just put them in my game and they are perfect! No more blank bodies :D
