how to get rid of imaginary Friend

In principle, I don't mind IF's, either. My founder's family started with four kids and four IF's. They were mostly raised like the founder's own kids, and all of them are still around. However, as they all come with a default face, I had to edit them to give them some individuality. I also kept another IF of one of the later kids, who I thought had an interesting personality. On the other hand, many IF's tend to bug out in my game, often stuck in some "half-materialized" state, sometimes duplicating, and Error Trap recorded lots of related errors. This is why I needed a reliable method to purge the bugged ones from the system and lean towards switching them off. If they were less buggy, I wouldn't mind the dolls.

I have the chance of a newborn getting an Imaginary Friend set to 100%

Is it through Nraas or something? I do have Nraas. Can you teach me, how to do it?

That's fair.

Using NRaas Retuner to disable (or further encourage) the spawning of IF dolls:

(do a ctrl+F type of browser page search for "imaginary";
use 100 instead of 0 for the chance to be 100% for each baby born;
alternatively a standalone tuning mod could be used)

I guess I'm one of the few that don't mind the IFs and get extremely sad, when my Child doesn't get one. I like making them real. In a sense, at least in my mind, making them real "gets rid of them". 'Cause I get to control them 'cause I'm narcissistic, like that xD

@Aaeiyn I am like you I love the IF, I only gave the IF away as a gift because I am playing the A-Z Gen. but a little different this time. I am using dice, throw dice 1-3 you marry or 4-6 you do not marry. So you have a single sims If you marry you throw the dice to see if you birth or adopt. If you birth then you throw to see if it is going to be boy or girl, so my Sim will not marry, but can adopt to keep the gen going, so that is why I gave the IF away, usually my sims marry their IF, I throw dice for everything, My sims do not work so I throw diec to see what their skill will be to make money, Farmer, writer, painter, carpenter, etc. I have 12 ways to make money. looking forward to see how this comes out. But the IF i think are cute and I love how they look when they trun into a sim.

@Aaeiyn I see @igazor has given you to info you need. I use NRAAS Returner mod to do it.

Insightful thread. :star:

There is an option like "Ask leave alone" or whatever it is in english.

If I have the points, I buy the Philosophers stone. When a baby gets an imaginary friend doll, I transfigured it to gold. Then I collect the gold. I know that is only one way to get rid of them.

@Nikkei_Simmer I like how you think, lol >:)

I have no idea if this is bound to break my game someday, but I use NRAAS debug enabler to put the doll in the family inventory. :lol:

It's still available for the sim to talk to again, though. They just have to apologize and they'll be right back again.
