I've had a bit of a look around and I can't seem to find a topic on this; Most searches come up with the other way around. I assume it'll involve using SimPE?

Yeah, so I created Morticia Addams in game (Purely because I changed the Neighbourhood music to the theme song and I find it entertaining when it is playing on the loading screen for "Loading... The Addams Family.") and decided I wanted to make her actually look more like Carolyn Jones (I was thinking of uploading her).

Therefore, I'd probably need to do it in bodyshop, (because I'm pedantic about details when I'm making a specific sim.)

Help, guys? Or a link to an article I'd missed?

Thankyou
~ Jo.

To import a new character you need to download SimPE and alternative sims surgery: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/s...hp?topic=3563.0

Save the sim in bodyshop and start a new neighbourhood. Add your new sim to the sim bin. Close sims 2.

Open simpe. Click tools --> neighbourhood browser and select your current neighbourhood.

Click tools, alt sims surgery. On the list of sims on the left choose the sim you don't like anymore and set them as the "patient" sim.

Then click load. Browse to the newly created neighbourhood which should be the last on the list. Your new sim should appear last in the list of files as they were the last created.

Click surgery.

You can change the name now. Click save and exit.

Only do the everyday clothing in bodyshop as nothing else will copy over. You'll have to buy some for each category in game. Open the cheat window and type kaching a couple of times if you are short of cash. If anything is flashing blue have them look in the mirror and change hairstyle per outfit (if desired) while doing so and then click ok.
