Most excellent sim! He has tons of character. I've placed Pinecat's Old Mill lot where Mosquito Cove was, DL'd ATS3 squat items, and will move this guy in. Since the lot is an 'abandoned' factory it'll work well for a homeless person.
Thanks for sharing.

Cool idea and good job. As you, I dont like to play the game, I just create lots and stuff but with this guy, I´m gonna have a go. I´m thinking a wooden shack somewhere in the outskirts .

Question, Since I dont wanna change anything, I dont need the sliders, right? Just the requered CC and then he will be as in the pictures...?

I'm not sure If you have Generations, you don't really even need the CC.. just swap his gloves out for the fingerless ones that come with it.. I had them as that, but figured it was kinda silly to upload a sim that requires only 1 item from an exansion..

As for the sliders, I am not sure.. I would think that would be right, but you never know.. If it doesn't work, you can always just put the sliders into your game.. its not like its gonna bork it permanently.

I didn't see you there. Hello. *runs* | Visit my CFF World thread

Stuffed animal accident? Har!
Anyway, forget the shacks and abandoned factories, just give this guy a sleeping bag, an empty residential lot, and zero household funds and see how he fares.
Thanks TVR.

Ok, I tested this guy. Gave him a shack initially, he started collecting stuff, could eventually buy a drill with wich he found two giant spacerocks on his first try worth 7.000 and 5.000 $ and after that, we kind of lost the whole "hobo-feeling" .
Also tried salvaging furniture in order to restore but couldn´t repair them for some reason. tried maxing the inventor-knowledge and handiness was at level 6 but still couldnt repair them myself so I gave up, lol.

Is there a female hobo in line? Would be a good addition I think.


GOOD WORK M8!

Ahhw poor Ziggy, I guess this is the only Sim on MTS or anywhere I'm downloading. I'm going to give him a family, job and a decent home!

For me, it's more fun (and challenging) to play this character as an unskilled Sim who has to get money by mooching, not by collecting or anything. Don't allow him to have any furniture (except maybe a sleeping bag). BTW, I think his LTW can be fulfilled even if the offspring are raised by someone else on non-active lots so he doesn't even have to have them around.
