They were going for diversity. Also, every custom neioghborhood starts out with the same set of characters (in case you haven't noticed). |

WOW and all I wanted to do was make non playable sims characters better looking. It seems so many things can go wrong, so I have one question. Can these changes be made on an identical game setup on a secondary computer and the new nps's be transferred back to the main computer? I ask because I have used a program called sims2 NPC replacer which only allows a change of clothes but does produce a file in saved sims folder which I assume can be transfered to another game. I don't want to lose my original game nor do I want to have to re-instal it, even with backups. I hope you periodically check this post, it has been going for a long time and I have spent the past hour reading it. Your tutorial is well written and I know about the patch to stop reverting. Thank you for you time and efforts and I hope you can find a little bit more time to answer me. |

Is there any faster and/or easier way of de-ugly-izing NPCs, because I don't have the time nor patience to beautify the hundreds of sims in my neighborhood. |

The sim you used had a different skin. There are several options in SimSurgery, face-only, skintone-only, etc. Try one of those next time for better control. |

Can I delete the "new" Sims I made from the Family Bin in Neighborhood View, after I've redone the ugly Sims with SimsPE, or will that make them go back to the old, ugly ones? |

Yes, of course. The sims you changed with SimSurgery have their own copies of the stuff, so delete away (not really). |

Thank you thank you for this tutorial! I have literally been trying all day to figure out what I was doing wrong, and had no luck with searches of this forum, ambertain's , and even the bbs! Sim surgery was NOT working when I had any of the boxes checked for face only, skin only...only when no boxes checked would anything happen! Still don't know why, but at least I can now proceed with making my npc's. I'm even changing their names...like Pete Moss is a gardener! |

I've been having a blast with this tutorial! I've done both the mail and female maids, as well as a lot of regular Townies. What I'm wondering is.....is there a way to change the children Townies? I can't create a family of just a child of one, because they have to have an adult. Or does it matter if there is more than one person in the family? Can you just create a family with kids and move them to the Families bin and then change them in SimPE? |

You need an adult and it doesn't matter. |
