Modding object animations/behaviors

[Le Carrera]

I want to alter the game so that female sims can use urinals and can pee in regular toilets while standing up. Cause, believe it or not, it is easy for women to do this in real life... lol.

I'm assuming it would involve a very simple process of copying behaviors and animations but I'm not 100% sure how to do it properly. Are there any tutorials on this sort of thing? :(

Also, I am attempting to make a buyable Grim Reaper and am very close, but every time I try to buy him ingame from catalog I get this error: "Illegal owner field in data reference. "

What does that mean? What am I not doing right? :(

You shouldn't need to copy bhavs or animations, because they'll already be in the toilet object. What you probably need to do is find the line in the guard function which is doing the gender check, and bypass it. Have a read through the BHAV tutorials on the site and you should get an idea of how to go about it. :)

For the Grim, I haven't looked but I expect that the problem is in his code. He's probably expecting to have one of his attributes set with the ID of the sim whom he is coming to collect. I'm afraid you're probably a lot further from having a buyable grim than you think. :) Rather than making the actual grim buyable, a better option is to clone a simpler unique NPC and change their outfit to that of the grim.
