How To Change A Baby's Gender via SimPE
1 Attachment(s)
One of the most complained about things in Sims 2 (second only to not being able to pick a different outfit for each baby on a lot) is that there is no way to select a baby's gender, leaving you at the mercy of the in-game "randomizer"...which at times, seems quite un-random!
Enter that amazing little gem called SimPE! With just a few simple steps, you can change a baby's gender to whatever you want after it has been born! I can't remember who originally posted this (or even what site I found it on) but my hats are off to them! Quote:
Now if someone can just come up with a way to change an infant's outfit (that isn't a skin-override, as those only work on a given skin) then life would be perfect. World peace? Who needs it; I got my Sims...:p --------------------------------------------- EDITED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING QUOTE: Quote:

Thanks!
I have BlooM's diaper replacements (onesie, onsie with hat and/or pacifier, dress, etc.) |
Does that work on older sims?

Not very well, since they probably have gender specific hair and clothes. Babies and their wardrobes are basically unisex.

Greg: unfortunately the instructions only work for babies, as they are little more than a glorified placeholder until they become toddlers. I wonder if something like this would work for puppies/kitten as well? Hmmmm... |
I'm guessing that to change an adult sim's sex, we would have to make a list of all the gender-specific data stored in the game and figure out how to modify each one. Still, this might be useful for NPC's in situations where you want characters of certain sex. I'd like to fix the grim reaper and the hula dancers, for no more reason than that it irritates me that they are messed up. :thinking:

The hula dancers are male, and greaper is female. Ick.

I have found that after changing a baby's gender it's best to use a mirror to change the child's appearance. The game will detect a discrepancy between the gender and facial structure and correct the all of the facial structures. Otherwise your sim may go through life as either a very ugly girl or very feminine boy.

Oh! This is good to know! I will hastily add it to my first post, post haste! (Ha ha ha, I kill me...)
Greg: Wow really? I never looked into the Reaper or Hula Dancer files that close. That is pretty nasty! It also makes no sense, what with the way the Grim Reaper is Nervous Subject's father, according to Maxis's own back story... Stupid Maxis... |
Woot! I found a tutorial on how to change an adult's gender!
It's a combination of SimSurgery and BodyShop to tidy up the mismatched clothes and such... http://www.gaysimsclub2.net/forums/i...showtopic=4306 |
Oh very cool!
This will help to "even out" the not-so-randomness of that "random" generator! |
