Re: Paparazzi - How to deal?
@silverwood02 I was being a bit silly when I mentioned the cowplant, at it likes to eat unsuspecting sims when it's hungry. And it's a store product, not a mod:
(It's expensive, but it goes on sale for something like 186 points every couple of months. I could find out when, if you're really interested, since the Daily Deal rotation hasn't changed in years.)
Of course, if the paparazzi population is suddenly depleted for whatever reason, the game will spawn new sims to fill the role. So if you're not interested in using mods, then the only way to not have paparazzi is to not have celebrities. Otherwise, you can install a high fence and a celebrity gate and hope it keeps them at bay.
If one in particular is bothering you in the moment, you can use an in-game cheat to temporarily reset the sim off the map. T(hat sim will likely come back soon though, so it's really only for getting the sim unstuck or back on the right side of your home lot's fence.) Open the cheats console (crtl-shift-c) and enter "resetsim firstname lastname" without quotes, and the sim will be sent home, so to speak, but as paparazzi are homeless by definition, they just disappear and respawn when they're needed.
