Okay. I have a quick question and I have looked EVERYWHERE for an answer before posting but I have to know!!!!!!!!!
I recently made 72 Sims in The Sims 4 with a plan to make them all students at Hogwarts but I have no way to add more families to the same household! PLEASE HELP!!! I AM SO DESPERATE!!! Creating all those sims...finding a decent Hogwarts... IT WAS MORE THAN 30 HOURS OF WORK I DON'T WANT WASTED!!!...and I was going to cite my sources on my BlogSpot page so everyone could have access...I know about the full house md but I REALLY don't want to add them all by name 64 times so if I try to place Hogwarts and then delete their houses? Should I try the Go To School Mod? Does that have an option to keep them at the school more then a day? Is their a better mod that I could be using? I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
Even with the Full House Mod, one household that big will bork your game. I recently saw The Sim Supply on one video of a You Tube Let's Play have 100 Toddlers in one household as a bit of a lark. Yep, his game was struggling mightily, running in fits and starts about like a drunken llama. He added them just by using the Spawn Sim cheat, and aging down the random Sims that spawned. So he didn't use Sims that he had made. His computer is a beast, too.
What you might be able to do alternatively is to make a Household living at Hogwarts with around maybe 20 Sims. I've read about folks on the forums here that have that many, I think, using the Full House Mod. Next you could put the rest of the Sims into houses in the Neighborhoods, and then into Clubs, if you have Get Together. You'd need to use several Sims to make the Clubs, because 24 Sims is the max number for each Club Leader--8 Sims max in a Club, 3 Clubs max per Sims. You can get mods to increase this, but your computer is going to be taxed even without more mods. Anyhow, once you have Sims in the Clubs, with Hogwarts as the Club Hangouts, you could have each Leader call gatherings. The Sims should stay at Hogwarts as long as the gatherings are going on. Here again, tho, with that many Sims on the lot, good luck!
