Assigning NPC roles

I'm making a custom save, and I'd like to use my own sims for the mailman, gardener, gym trainers etc. Is there a way to do so?

  • I just edit them all to fit my gameplay/storylines. plus I like editing sims.
  • I know this is late, but there is a way to do so. If you know how to check XML files there will be hidden traits that you find however I provided the base game npc traits below. 1] Delete the sims that you do not want in your world in manage households 2] Create a sim or download via gallery. 3] Move into an empty lot. 4] Crtl+shift+ c enter testingcheats on 5] choose one of the hidden traits below and equip it via cheat bar. 6] Go back to manage worlds and MARK as UNPLAYED. If you do not mark the household as unplayed it will not work. You will need to restart the process over by adding the trait and marking the household as unplayed.


    Info: You will not know if the trait is equipped or not so your best option is testing this out by equipping nanny or maid trait. After you go back to manage worlds mark the household as unplayed . Play another household and hire a maid or nanny and see if your sim shows up. It may take a few tries to get this [:. CHEERS :D.

    P.S. If the npc you want to create requires a skill, the skill will need to be maxed out at 10. Example: Gardner will need gardening skill maxed out at 10.


    cheers hope this helps a bit.
