Default Who wants to loan me some Sims?
You guys probably know by now that I'm doing a series. It's certainly been a challenge so far, to say the least, and one of the bigger challenges I've been faced with recently is related to how everything's scaled. TS3 is a small game that likes small amounts of Sims in small sorts of places. It doesn't like lots bigger than 64x64 meters and households larger than 8 members.

What would really help me out, though, is if I had a good variety of background characters to refer to. I may need up to 30 Sims to create a suitable environment, and right now I have little more than half that.
So I'm just putting it out here, should you have a few Sims you like but don't know what to do with, send them my way. They'll be fed and clothed and I promise I won't kill any of them.

Does it matter if they aren't entirely human? I've got some that can pass as human if they hide their ears or other physical oddities and don't do anything "weird" while being watched...

Yeah, sure. I may or may not make them humans proper but I suppose having a few supernaturals around is good for variety.

Do you need any specific age stages? I can probably boot up my game and give you some of my sims once I get home.

Any age besides elders will do fine. Thanks!

Take a look at sims made by littlelambsy here on her Simple Minded Sims Blog. They come with back stories and links for CAS items you might want. I play with almost all of these and have had no problems with them.

There are also residential and community lot downloads available in the download drop down menu.

Is the CC on them uploaded as well?

Yes, CC is included unless she specifies otherwise. If you do not want the content you can extract the Sim Package File using the Sims 3 Multi pack Installer and put the sim.package file in your library.

Is that in general, that sims will have their custom content, or just that site?

It depends upon the creator of a sim. Some creators bundle up the custom content and include it in the download. Some creators offer the sim and list the content used with links to download the content.

littlelambsy includes the content in her 3packs. Here is detail for her Sims on the main download page:
Quote:
Please Note: These sims have all been updated with custom content, which is included in the download. All credit for custom content used is given to the creators with links to their stuff, under "Custom Content Used. Any additional custom content that is required, which does not come with the download, is listed under "Requirements" with the links provided.
Custom Content: None of the Custom Content (Hair, Clothing, Makeup etc) are mine, they are all downloaded from various creators

Often, depending on player preference, not having the clothing included is of little consequence. However, make up and sliders (if used) will alter the appearance.

For sims downloaded via 3pack I usually extract out the package file and if the sim does not look the same I go back and get the additional content.

Thanks a bunch! They look good, I'll definitely be able to find a use for them.

Both have been added into the game, they look great, and they'll be used where needed.

Unfortunately I'm still a few Sims short. Anyone else?

Considering that he is one of the ones who has gotten so tired of Susan that he's starting to hate her, I don't think it would be a very good idea to encourage him to do anything to her...

Sorry for being not too straightforward,but if you're still lacking sims,i could make you a couple,but I need to know what kind of sliders and multiplier you use ,because I use x7 multiplier and all existing sliders (probably).

It would be greatly appreciated @blyneliaivel. Even as I'm continuing to add Sims, I'm still having trouble filling up certain locations.
I'm not fussy about stuff like multipliers and sliders, I'll adapt if needed. Nevertheless, here's the list of sliders I have in my game.

BreastDistance
BreastFullness
BreastVertical
Brow Thickness
Butt Rotate
Butt Shape
Chin to Neck
ChinWidth
Eyebrows Distance
leWing - Hands.hand size
Shoulder Height
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_MoveX
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_MoveY
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_MoveZ
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_RotateX
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_RotateY
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_RotateZ
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_ScaleX
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_ScaleXYZ
aWT_HACK_BONESLIDER_HatGrip_ScaleY

But again, please don't exert yourself trying to make Sims that fit into my game as-is. That ought to be an exercise on my part, not yours. I'm thankful either way.

If you're still looking for sims, I made some today. I made a "rich" family (I cheated them money, exported them and then found out that their money was only enough to buy an okay house) of five members (2 adults, 1 Young Adult, 1 Teen, and 1 Toddler). I also made some roommates (3 Young Adults). I don't know what format you prefer so I have them as some sims3packs and library files. I'm not sure how well the library files work, I think you just gotta plop 'em into your library folder, but it might not work, they're just an alternative to the sims3pack. I can try to find another format if they don't work and you don't wanna use the sims3pack. I'm am using some CC though, although I tried to keep it to a minimum. I'm brntwaffles's eyebrows and I have a default cc skin so if you don't have the skin, it'll just replace it with the defualt you have. Otherwise I don't think there's any CC. I did use all the expansions and stuff packs though, so sorry if you don't have them all. I included the library files, sims3packs, and a photo of them.

edit: I also think I used a few sliders, but not too much.
edit 2: the files were removed so here are some links to mediafire
the family
the roommates

It's totally cool to share sims! (Because we all love our simmies! ) however when doing this on the forums, please do this either by uploading on here by using the wizard or a 3rd party site, like Simsfileshare, Mediafire, etc.

So attachments have been deleted but do feel free to edit your reply, add the link, and upload them through either of those choices!

All right back to sharing! :P

Great, if you can send me a link I'll get them right into my game.

Okay, I just made a mediafire account so let me know if anything goes wrong. I'm not too familiar with uploading there.
Here's the family of five and here's the roommates .

Sims pics are included in the zip, so you can pick and choose. The cc is optional, you can just use your own cc on them instead .

Sliders I use 2x slider on MC:
1
2
awt's iris size slider (these require the awt's eyeballl mesh), but it's optional.
Chin to neck

Lizette: The rumored phantom thief. She grew up as an orphan on the streets of Bridgeport. Lizette became an infamous cat burglar who steals from the rich and very occasionally, donates suit cases of simoleons from her steals to local orphanages.

Jada
: Genius mechanist, expelled from Sim's University for experimenting with mechanized weaponry. No one knows where she is or what she is doing at the moment.

Ramiro: Having spent three years in prison for illegally hunting wildlife, Ramiro now lives in Isla Paradiso as a quiet and inconspicuous fisherman.
