Big Party with 21 People (I'm at it again)
Some of you might remember my post Do You Go Overboard Preparing for Certain Events where I talked some of the things I did for the wedding of my main sims. Now I'm in the middle of doing a large New Year's Eve party. I'm going to tell you how I'm going about it in case anyone else wants to try it, and then you can tell me about the big projects you're working on so we can learn from each other.

- made the guest list in Word (21 people)
- dressed everyone and put screenshots of them in Word so I wouldn't forget and have people wearing the same thing
- used MCCC to get everyone in the same household
- did a "save as" so I wouldn't ruin my game (you can't go into CAS once you have more than 8 sims because it will permanently delete all but 8, so just in case I forgot and did something stupid)
- changed the commercial venue to residential so I didn't have to deal with stupid NPCs showing up
- put my sims in the room I wanted them, then built walls in the hallway so they only had access to that room and to the bathroom at the end of the hall; the room has a bar in it, so they have access to food
- used MCCC to change the weather to snowy so it would look snowy outside the windows
- used MCCC to instantly fill everyone's motives
- this was already at a social club venue, but used a cheat to put more than 8 to a club so they'd do the activities I wanted, then started a club meeting
- was annoyed that the couples weren't acting like couples, so I made "love clubs" of 2 for each of the couples with desired activities and made the current location to their club hangout; even though they weren't actively in a club meeting they still then did more autonomous lovey interactions
To see screenshots of the party so far, go to Queen Of Myshuno's Tumblr (hit the "next" button at the bottom of the screen to view the next scene) or look for Vintage Newcrest on the Stories and Legacies board on this forum.
Tell me about a big party, event, or project that you're currently working or have worked on in the past and the things you did to make it work.
