Hermit in Granite Falls

My sim is working on the herbalism skill, and part of that is befriending the hermit and collecting all of the wild plants, and insects. She has identified all the plants on her first trip their, and met the hermit. She has some of the insects, but not some of the more rare ones. I have her take a vacation between every career she maxes with her vacation days before she switches jobs. This will be her second trip. Mainly the grind of trying to find all the insects, and I am not sure whether I want her to do the science career next or not, but was wondering with the clone machine if she would be able to clone some of the rarer insects for herbal potions.

I have never used the full edit cas cheat before, will it have the Hermit's proper clothes? I thought that the outfit for them and some of the other NCP role sims are locked and not available in CAS?

Hello
The hermit's clothing was unlocked with the August 2016 patch update.

The hermit clothing is in CAS under the full outfits, select that and then filter by pack (Outdoor Retreat of course) and then it'll come up. There are a few different color swatches for it as well.

Edit: you know, it's really odd that your hermit spawned in women's clothing because just today I had my sim visit the hermit and he was in the correct clothing for a while, but then all of the sudden while he was gardening he changed into an outfit that included a pair of women's shorts. Weird coincidence.

I want to say that he was in the correct outfit at first, but then changed and has stayed in the female clothing since then. But at any rate, I am not to concerned, as my sim completed the part of the aspiration of befriending the Hermit, getting the recipe, collected all the insects, and only needs one more fish from Granite Falls. She is level 9 in Herbalism, and only needs to sleep in a tent 4 more nights. I don't need to interact with the Hermit anymore, so I guess I am not gonna worry about it.
Just wish I could build, my sim definitely needs a new house, lol.

Hello,
Simmers posted homes that they had designed for Granite Falls in this link thread when Outdoors Retreat was first released. There may be a home that you would like to download and place in your game :)

Just found the hermit in Granite Falls...since I have the vampire expansion...let me tell u my adventure. When I entered through the briar, I visited the home there, shortly after a woman with vampire style hair and tattered clothing approached. I made convo with her, went fishing, caught the cool rare fish, collected blackberries, clippings to replant (since blackberries are rare), collected a map and some gems....( yet to look at the map). Long stort short...made friends with her, gave her my key. Back home, I invited her to a party. ( This gets the hermit to "you"). Did : testingcheats true, then "shift click" on the hermit, "edit in cas." Discovered she indeed was a vamp...but a good one. Left her character in tact, spiffed up her wardrobe, went live and revoked my key...(vampire) made nice and sent her on her way...fun stuff... moral of the story...with vamp exp pack your hermit just may be a vampire when u find em.

I'm closing this thread as it was necro'd.

how do you find the hermit - haven't been to granite falls in a lone time

That bramble area near the water in the forest.

u could try testingcheats true then cas.fulleditmode I think ive had a hermit in cas before. hope that helps.
