Has anyone EVER gotten the Double Life achievement?

Setting up a game where I’m playing a scientist and her (secretly alien) roommate.

I want to play out the Extraterrestrial Explorer scenario with the scientist and I’ve always wanted to earn the Double Life game achievement for getting married as an alien without being discovered.

As anyone who’s attempted that feat will know, it’s difficult as all …
I mean, I moved my alien and landlady in and the alien is outed in no time flat because she was feeling inspired from watching culinary videos and was happy from other fairly random stuff. I don’t even know if erasing her roomies memory would allow the achievement or if I have to jump back a tick and try again altogether.



So, yeah, has anyone actually managed this impossible mission?

  • I haven't tried this achievement yet. My best guess would be to get the alien into a state of Mindfulness from Wellness activites. That would lock her into the FINE emotion for a while.
    You could also try to play with Free Will off and keep her out of sight of her partner whenever she isn't FINE.

    No idea how to combat the happy moodlets from the engagement, though. That would be the true acid test.
  • Maybe the spellcaster potion of emotional stability would help?

    Mindfulness is available in Snowy Escape as well, from painting and reading and other slow activities.
  • Wait, so an alien gets discovered automatically when they're in a positive mood? Why is that?

    Anything “very”. e.g. Very Playful, Very Inspired, Very Focused…. The Sims seem to glow and any conversation with another Sim gives the game away.



    Can folks tell me more about Mindfulness. I’m not sure how it helps lower mood intensity…

    Also, when I did some googling and looking at old threads, it seems most folks had to wipe the fiancés memory when engaged because a proposal basically always lets the cat out of the bag so to speak. Wiping memory technically removes “known alien” but doesn’t change relationship status so couple is still engaged. Weird huh?
  • If you do something like meditation for a long enough time, then your Sim will get a +10 Fine moodlet. It can also happen if you play an instrument for a long time, but meditation is a better way.
