Does anyone know if I can do the Strangerville story line again with a different Sim from the same save ? I currently play one save with about a dozen or more Sims and I don't really use any other saves. I would love to do the story line again but with some of my other Sims in this save. Is this even possible?

Yes you can play the story as many times as you like in the same save, although the story is always the same.

Oh good. Thank you AlbaWaterhouse. Yes I know the story will be the same but it seems there are a few small details that can be accomplished in more than one way and I wanted to get more out of the story line than I did the first time. For instance, I totally forgot to "bug" any Sims. I never searched for clues in the Roswell basement and spent the whole time searching the lab instead. I am just nearing the end of my first run through and am looking forward to making a brand new Sim who lives in the town. My current one lives in Oasis Springs.Thanks again for the information :)

The core is similar but there is lots of room on how you obtain things and even ways to make things "different" for any future sims.

Thanks Freygea, that does sound like fun. I will probably have several of my various Sims do this story.

Spoiler

I took an infected sim and placed her in my Forgotten Hollow save.

She is a botched attempt from my Vamp. My vamp tried to turn her and things went really wrong. My vamp now has the guilty drinker trait. Her now "child" is like her Igor/The Monster. She has noted her "mother" planting plants and eating the fruit. She went and found her own pretty plants and ate that fruit. She is like "mother" now.

She now is going around creating her own little coven thinking she is going to make "mother" proud. She adores "Mother" So much so that she goes around talking about her to others when she has her episodes. Her "mother" (my Vamp) is a good vampire and only uses plasma packs and plants because she hates what happened to her "child". She is going to be very upset when she finds out what her "child" is doing.

This pack is so darn versatile.

I didn't realize this was an option. :o I'm just getting starting again and I think I'm going to make a point of visiting all the households first. Get to know the townsfolk.

Hmmm. Can you go into world management and then find him and save him or her to your library? It would be fun to be able to add them to other game saves. If not I hope they add the ability to in a future patch.

Oops, I replaced the Roswell house with a download. What was in their basement? Just wondering if it's worth my while putting it back.

Not much -

@Freygea : Thanks for that. I was wondering about your 'spoiler'. I'm almost at the end of my first run through and didn't want to be spoiled, but I wanted the answer to that question.
