hey guys,
i have recently upgraded my game to the latest versions and have noticed that i can no longer ask the grim reaper to be a part of my band. also, i am pretty certain that i can no longer ask him to move into my household. i was also able to turn my reaper into a celebrity... which i don't think i can do anymore (i tried setting his celeb status using awesomemod).
has this happened to anyone else, or am i just missing something?
i believe i was previously on 1.16 or 1.17 on base-game. i don't remember what my previous version of LN was.
thanks in advance
Edit: after alot of work, i was finally able to add the grim reaper to my band. I still don't know how to add him without awesomemod though. Here's what i did: i set grim to be chosen and then was able to select him. I gave him level 8 guitar skill (he only comes with gardening by default). I also changed his traits to include friendly and virtuoso. Now, since my main sim was a 5 star celeb, and grim can't gain any celeb points, i had to lower my sim to anonymity (0 stars). I switched back to controlling the reaper, and selected "ask to join band" on my main sim. once the whole fame difference was out of the way, the band was successfully formed.
While i was messing around, here are a few additional things that i have discovered about the reaper:
-he is a homeless townie when he sticks around
-anything placed into his inventory gets cleared upon disappearance
-when he leaves, he deletes himself (but preserves his clothes, skills, traits, and relationships when he returns.
-Deleting grim can be resolved by saving and reloading the game.
-Sims in his household are created and destroyed as needed, just like the reaper himself.
-no homeless townies can become celebrities.
-grim's needs do not decay
Hope this helps someone
