Are there traits that increase a sim's affinity with aliens, or make them more likely to meet or be abducted by them?

I'm not sure about traits, but it seems to me that certain sims tend to get abducted more often than others. One of mine, Dorabella Darke, has the Adventurous, Genius, Insane, Loves the Outdoors and Neurotic traits. She is also a witch. Aliens seem to take a particular interest in her: she's been abducted no fewer than four times that I recall.

Legend is history as we would like it to be. We pick through the dusts of time for what is worth keeping and, here and there, we occasionally find treasure.

Doesn't becoming a "Rock Star" (Music 10 top level) makes that Sim a celebrity? Or am I missing something? Cuz my reached the top and wasn't granted a single celebrity star

Has anyone else had any issues with sims not changing clothes? I reinstalled recently (which was a huge hassle) and since then it seems like my sims just take ages to change their clothes. If I'm playing a sim on a community lot and I notice a sim at home has had the same thing in their queue for a few hours, it's because they're doing something that requires a clothing change and I have to go their home and force them to change with Nraas. I'm currently playing two separate households at the same time (one lives on the Home lot, another lives on a second purchased residential lot) and it's annoying having to keep an eye on the other's queue while I'm playing one sim. I used to be able to leave a sim alone in a residential house for weeks without issue but now I'm constantly having to keep an eye on them.

Do they still take long to change to outfit categories that they haven't tried? If not, I suggest before the game have them change to all remaining ones so they load quickler. Also, you can try unparking cpu.

It doesn’t seem to matter what outfit it is. It’s like if I’m not on the lot with them when they try to change clothes they just get stuck loading until I notice and have to go fix it.

Does anyone know of a mod that prevents the imaginary friend doll from getting deleted when switching households? The game keeps deleting them whether they are in the personal inventory or around the house.

You can't. That's what the purpose of those mods, to hard reset a sim who triggered the problem in the first place.

Have you tried No Spinning Effect mod? I've been playing with that and my sim switches outfit no less than ten seconds, and I'm playing the Sims 3 on laptop.

Also no career and martial arts outfits mod helps because those tend to glitch a lot.

Well, I used to have a Sim that kept resetting at a professional bar they practice on in a penthouse during their session for no reason. Also kills the fun of having a trapped Sim escape from a doorless room.or enclosed swimming pool.

Another question, that I'll later post in help section: I had Sim work on the restorable car engine while decrap file was deleted prior (cause it caused other technical problems). Now finished the engine part, the object turned into a missingdata object. Would installing the store fix again revert the data of the object back?

P.S. Sorry for my bad english.

I had that happen with the store fix installed. And nothing could turn that pumpkin it back to a car.

Overwatch has a setting whether it affects active sim, though I'm not sure it had something to do with professional bar. ErrorTrap always generates a log file whenever a problem occurs. You might want to take a look first. And yeah Overwatch will always reset sims who get stuck or trapped unless you set it to false.

@SneakyWingPhoenix : I think it's the name.world you have to use.

I speak French only. If my statements are harsh, rude for you, that's not intentional. I just think Different due to my Language and my Culture.
But truly, I am open-minded than you think of.

The "name.world with Fixes Imported" ones are the actual world files with the fixes already applied. All you have to do with those are downloading each archive, renaming them like ellacharmed mentions on her pages, and it will unzip the completed world file.

From there, all you have to do is replace the one's in your installation folder with hers (preferably make a backup first.) I can't say this 100% for sure, but I think the Resources one is if you wanted to apply the fixes to the unaltered world files yourself in S3PE.

You have been chosen. They will come soon.

Does eerie music play when ghosts appear on Sims 3 lots, or is that just Sims 1 & 2? Relatedly, is there any way to help make the ghosts appear on a lot? Currently playing Anna-Liza Riddle and really wanna see this Di. L. Emma Riddle character before Anna-Liza dies.

How do you turn an alien into a normal sim? My sim had three babies and everyone of them is an alien like their mother. I don't want another alien generation. I tried looking through the MC but the alien DNA or the occult options didn't help. Tried googling but only found a cheat for TS4. I haven't played aliens in a long time, so the answer is probably very simple and I just can't see it. Elixir, maybe? Though, Potent Cure Elixir doesn't say anything about aliens.

Music has been playing on my neighbor's lots and the lots seem to glow, and this seems to be ghosts. An inactive ghost hunter appears.
I don't know how to make them appear on active lots. Doesn't the grave need to be on the lot for ghosts to appear on an active lot?

Short answer: you can't.

I don't think you can, because Aliens are classified as a different Sim (non-occult, as contradicting it sounds). They're not like werewolves or mummies you can turn and demumify/dewerewolve a Sim. Think of it as wanting to turn a dog into a human.

There's a lifetime reward object ('something' stone) in Supernatural that allows you to summon a ghost of your choice. I believe there are also other options but can't think of them
