Yes, you can put the head and body on another sim, you'll have to give the sim a *very* narrow head and no nose (push his nose all the way in) - why not just clone this sim if you want to make another one? That would be easier.

This is great. If only you could make the head smaller.

Human beings are a very irrational species. Some of them are even afraid of pickles.

Unfortunately, it's not technically possible - I made it the smallest I could. I think his big head is rather cute, though.

I was just thinking of the skeletons for Sims2 by Drachenfels or Bink13y, which I believe had invisible heads somehow. Could you use the technique you used on the feet to do something similar with the head?

Unfortunately The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 are different games written using completely different game engines and coded very differently, so nothing that works in TS2 works in TS3. We can only try to replicate things that could be done in TS2, sometimes successfully, sometimes not. ''Null heads' existed in TS2 - there was even a hidden one by Maxis in the base game for the Grim Reaper - but from what I've heard, it has not yet been possible to make it work in TS3. Maybe it will become possible in the future if someone figures out a way (the Grim Reaper in TS3 looks like he must use one, or something similar, but I don't know how).

Meanwhile, I like Mr Skeleto's head just the way it is - it reflects his 'big-headed' personality (after all, he's a snob and evil) and gives him his distinctive look - he's supposed to be a 'unique' sim and not an anatomically correct real skeleton! Also, I wanted him to have 'live' eyes rather than just an empty skull like the skeletons of the creators you mentioned, so that he could have facial expressions and look more recognisably 'human'.

Thank you so much! Is there a way to make a female and child Skeleto? I had whole families of Skeletons in the Sims2 and they were great fun. I'm so happy to see this!

If you want to make a female version, you can open the head and body package files with CAS Texture Unitool (http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=364926 ), go the Part Category tab and click 'Female' in addition to 'Male' for each of them, then click File\Save. Note that a female version will revert to a human body if it gets pregnant. Also, you'll need to make the sim's head very narrow and push their nose all the way in so that it looks like they have no nose - you may need facial slider hacks for this.

A child version is possible to make - maybe I'll consider it at some stage if I have some extra time, as it would be rather cute!

THANKYOU SO MUCH!!
