Degrassi for The Sims 3?

Hello everyone! :smile:
One of my all time favorite shows is Degrassi...
From the very first episode all the way to the Next Class. :sunglasses:
My all time favourite game, of course is The Sims 3, so why not try to combine them?

I've been making and working on compiling Sims and other Degrassi related items.
I've made 7 households of the Cast so far. (Listed Below)
If you've seen any of my previous posts, you'll know I'm rubbish at making Sims... so some of the celebrity Sims were borrowed and modified to better represent the cast as I saw fit.
All the borrowed Sims can be found on the Exchange. :smile:

I'm really looking for anyone from the show, even ones I may have overlooked.
I'm also interested in better or more resembling versions of the cast I provided.

I can't seem to find any similar interest in Degrassi for Sims 3 online anywhere...
If you have come across any let me know! :smile:
or if you're interesting in collaborating.
I would love to find or collaborate on an actual model of Degrassi

Here is a .zip file with all the .sim files, so feel 100% free to download for use or to better mod the ones already made
DEGRASSI SavedSims.zip

To Install:
Navigate to C:\Users\YOURPC\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\SavedSims
Drag and Drop some or all of the .sim files into the SavedSims folder
When you open your game go to Edit Town
Click on Create a Household
When CAS opens click on the little "Premade Sims" box on the bottom left
Then just select the Sim you want to use or edit!

I've never heard of the show - but the content you've made looks great.

Yeah, we're all a bunch of old fogies here who aren't going to be able to appreciate this. :p

Okay, I'm kidding although I would be in the same category if I were being serious. But around nine years ago I was recovering from a horrible foot injury, laid up on painkillers unable to get around easily or focus on working remotely very well for a few weeks, and was grateful to have the show (Next Generation I think, though the later seasons were still in production) to binge watch on a cable channel. Was afraid I wouldn't be able to recognize any of the characters after all this time, but I can on some of them. You did a very good job there. :)

A year or two back, I had a whole game populated with TV sims (Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, Breaking Bad, Friends, and was working on The Walking Dead crew). Then my hard drive died, and I lost the whole lot. You have inspired me to start over, with the addition of Orange is the New Black and Gilmore Girls this time around. No idea what world to use though, may have to Traveller mod a few together.

I am not familier with the show myself but you have made some really awesome Si s with some good choice of CC :smile:

It is not easy remaking a cast from a TV show in The Sims but you have clearly put a lot of effort into it :smiley:

@Karritz Thank you! :smile: It's a drama about a Canadian high school eh...

@igazor Thank you! I used to watch it when I was younger on Teen Nick but I never caught episodes back to back, UNTIL I bought the whole series and binge watched seasons 7-14 then the Next Class then I watched 1-7... and repeat :lol:

@lovelylisac I'm glad to hear you're going to start over... :smile: OITNB and Friends would be really really cool! After I'm happy with my Degrassi collection I'm going to work on another show called "Shameless!"
I'm always afraid of losing my gaming content and progress so I back them up every month or so on a flash drive.. :smile:
Good luck!

@MiataPlay :smile: Thank you!

@king_of_simcity7 Thank you! It's taken quite some time to get this far, but I love the show. :lol: more like addicted

Here is some more info on Degrassi, if anyone is interested. :smile:

Shameless is hilarious. There aren't too many run down British worlds out there, but Frank and co might have fun in Twinbrook :-D

@JordanBritt years of experince tells me how lo it can actually take to get things right in The Sims but when you have completed what you wanted it feels like such a relief and a great achivement :smile:

I love this! I may just have to start playing some Degrassi characters... (I'm a huge fan of the show myself, too.) If I do, I would definitely make Grace and Zoe, so I'll let you know. c:

Thanks for sharing!

@lovelylisac Very true! I love Shameless, I'll do a post when I get started with it. :smiley:

@king_of_simcity7 True! Even more so when there's so many people on and off of the show... :lol: But I'm getting close.

@baranouta Thank you! :smile: That would be awesome! They are my favorite on the newwer ones for sure, second being Tiny and Shay...
