Fake Sims!

That's downright terrifying!

I never noticed! I'm definitely going to be on the look out for them now!

They change their clothes in the winter and even use umbrellas when it's raining :lol:

Background characters from CL.

I personally do not mind them to be very low poly, as you really do not see them clearly in regular gameplay, if not zooming to them in purpose.
I can only imagine the lag at some computers if those indeed would be high poly and game would have to render all the details for them all the time you play. :)

I've never noticed this before but I just had my sim in city living and I noticed that outside the playable area there's "sims" walking around. Then when I zoomed in they aren't actually sims they're fake low poly sims, here's some screenshots

Thought this was a fun detail, I've never seen these around before!

That is so weird. Those 'Sims' look exactly like the audience you can fill in for your singer Sim from Sacrificial's Road to Fame mod. I've never seen any of them walking around my town, however. So very strange. Have you considered an Exorcist?

I've seen them in the city! I noticed them very recently as well, thinking that somehow a ton of sims dropped in at 1 area...then I zoomed in and saw they were fake!
I've switched over to Sims 3 for a while, so I haven't gotten the chance to look for them anywhere else.

Not weird at all, total opposite, it makes sense that the mod would use CL background sims as filling audience, instead of using actual sims, what game would have to fully render and would make the event lag :)

I noticed them in San Myshuno ages ago. I don't mind them. I don't stop to get a good look at everybody in a city. People just become background like bypassing cars and distant buildings.

I've seen them quite often in the city!
