Quite often I've seen people asking about how to get abducted in Castaways. There have been many random comments but nothing substantial enough that I've seen, until now. I found this info while searching for something else.

"there is an island named Crystal Island. On it, are giant green crystals and odd rock formations, and it is the only place in the game where a Sim may be abducted. For a Sim to be abducted, they must have the airplane radio and transmitter, two items used to call for rescue, and the radio must be placed on the island. The Sim must then place the transmitter and send an SOS. Upon doing so, an unseen UFO will suck the Sim into it and, to the player's delight, raise all motives to full. The Sim will then fall down, recollect itself, and yell at the sky, then run to a nearby sand gathering pit and vomit. The Sim will sometimes return with cans of Alien Food, but will not be impregnated or any other effects." (from Wiki)

Pet Stories seems to be the easiest with an abduction about 1 hour after stargazing and the possibility of bring items back. Life Stories had no mention at all. It seems low for LS too as I've only had 1 abduction in the past few months. If I find any other info I'll add it here.

Edit: Shortly after posting, a female teen sim was abducted. The next day she was on a community lot and used the ElectroDance Sphere and vanished for awhile. That's the first sphere abduction I've ever seen. I've read it only happens outdoors and only to sims who have previously been abducted using telescope, but this was inside on a community lot. Supposedly each sphere will only allow this to happen one time. I'll have to replace it and see who's next.

The stuff you quoted from Wiki, is it for Pet Stories or Castaway Stories?

Castaway Stories has only two islands (Felicity and Wanmami) and alien abduction has been left out from that game. It can be re-enabled by one of Carrigon's mods (but her site is down currently) or by using her TCE mod (click on a Sim > Spawn... > Tombstone of L&D) and selecting Make Me Alien Pregnant. (By using her TCE mod, I was able to make a Sim alien pregnant, and later on create an entire legacy out of aliens, which I still play.)

If that quote is about PS, I'm not quite sure since I've never played that game, but if it's about CS, then it's a plain myth, just like the twinzR2Cute cheat and other stuff.

The part for Crystal Island is for the console game not for the PC.

If you really need to get a sim abducted then get this mod and abduct away. http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=30675
Make sure not to use it during the story part or it will break the story line.

You don't have to replace the ElectroDance Sphere you can still have other sims use it and if they have been abducted by telescope then they can do it with the ElectroDance Sphere any number of times you want to.

The first part was about Castaways, now i'm not sure what platform. I'll look it up and correct what I said. I don't need a mod since I didn't mind waiting, just surprised how it happened after I mentioned how rare abduction is. I'll get the mod and save it just in case. Now that 1 was abducted everyone on her relationship panel will have wants. Not sure if I've tried for abduction in Pet Stories either.

Also, to sort out further confusion; Castaway Stories (TSCS) = the PC version, Castaway (TS2C) = the xbox/PS/console version.

Are you sure there are no abductions in CS? I've seen some videos with alien abduction and male pregnancies, unless they used hacks for it.

See my post #3 for alien abduction.

For the record I played the PC version of Castaway Stories and there is too abduction. In the house that has the mother and several children the father I chose got abducted, had the baby and there was drumming, and the goofy medicine man came through the portal, picked up the toddler alien, went to the telescope and signaled the mothership and it zoomed in and took the baby away as he held it up in the air. I expected this to happen in Sims 2 and was crushed when I had to raise them. Perhaps I should have waited before I got all the males in Verona Preggers at the same time.

This is something else I will have to go test for I never play with alien babies in CS.

This is the first time I hear about this, Kestie Freehawk. O.o

In the PC version of Sims Castaway Stories there are alien abductions. It has happened to my characters randomly by looking through the telescope at night. I haven't had it happen in the 'Shipwrecked and Single' mode yet, but it has happened on 'Wanmami Island.' Since there's no shaman in that mode, the family got to keep the half-alien baby. I took some screenshots during the process before that save file got corrupted and I had to start over. Here they are:

(I fed him Smart Milk, that's why he's glowing.)

And child alien looking for his other parent...

I did not use any mods or any cheats for this to happen. Just straight gameplay.


Edit: Literally just had another male abducted and returned pregnant... Only he had twins! (Still no mods or cheats.)

+1 There are alien abductions in CS in a vanilla game. And I've had it happen in Shiprecked and Single (in free play mode) to Ahio Heimata the first time I played, I didn't even know about mods/cheating objects then.
Isn't it a TS2 BG feature anyway, I don't see where the idea came from that you couldn't have alien babies in CS o_O

There are absolutely alien abductions and alien babies in Castaway Stories. My very first playthrough of Castaway Stories had David Bennett get abducted mid-story when using the big telescope. However, nothing happened to him and I assumed the pregnancy was removed. Not so! The moment the story ended and freeplay unlocked, the pregnancy started. It was paused all that time xD His poor islander wife must have been so confused, she was supposed to carry HIS baby, instead her husband ended up waddling around and giving birth.
