Re: "Secret" Sims?

Hi @georgiagirl19, 

I did some more testing today and I might have found a solution how you can save your family. You will loose all your money (that can be re-cheated with motherlode) and possibly your inventory (not sure if your Sims had anything in it before). I have not tested it for an extended period of time but after doing the following steps, your family does seem fine.

1. Backup your user files. http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/backups/
2. Remove all saves except slot_00000002.save from your saves folder (move or delete, doesn't matter since you already made a backup)
3. Start your game
4. Load the save game that's still there
5. From Manage World, directly start the Household Manager. Under played families, you'll find your family twice. Load the one WITH the baby in CAS
6. Save them to your library and leave CAS
7. Now delete the family with the baby AND the clone without the baby from your game
8. Go back to manage world
9. Type the cheat freerealestate on so you don't have to repay for your house
10. Go to your library and find the family you have saved there then place them to their old house from CAS
11. Load the family
12. Cheat the money back up to whatever you want it
13. Save the game under a new name
14. Close the game and remove the slot_00000002.save and only keep the new, good save
15. Enjoy the game

Let me know if you need pictures or are unclear on any step.
