is there a sims 3 version of this mod?
There was already an option to "Throw a Funeral" in TS3, I think. Its was basically throwing a party though. I don't think anyone did a funeral mod for TS3 because we had graveyards.
'Throw a Funeral' was definitely in Sims3. If people laugh, joke, share stories about the deceased and sometimes cry, that's what the gathering is for. The merry-making part is called a Wake and can be attributed to the Irish in RL. They celebrate a person's
life. I had to leave my older brother's funeral because I couldn't stand the oppression of the mood. It was too sad for words. Somber. My new husband, our best man and I went to the brand new mall to check it out. As we walked along, a mother and daughter (friends of my parents and me) ran into us. The daughter blurted out, "What are you doing here?" her mother was quick to scold her, but I also was quick to say I just had to get out of there for a bit. I was 19 and the daughter was close to my age. My older brother was only 24 for one month and a day at the time of his decease. Yes, he was murdered.
I'm not at all bothered by Sims making-merry at a funeral. Emotions are what they are. Grief, itself, is a roller-coaster ride. Nobody grieves the same way as another. I'm truly sorry this party isn't one included so far.
Hey, I should add that my Sim's wedding turned into a funeral in Sims3! It was crazy-insane, she died just before the wedding began. :open_mouth:
