Resurrecting the Tricous

It’s now time to resurrect the only premade dead sim family that comes with the Sims 2 Nightlife! Of course I’m talking about the Tricou family. Today we’ll be taking a step-by-step look at how you can resurrect Jon Smith Tricou and the rest of his crazy family using his six descendants.

1) First, in order for the descendants to be made in the first place, you must add a Downtown Lot to the neighborhood. To do this, click the “add downtown” button located on the top of your screen. (If you already have a downtown lot, it should say “Downtown Chooser”).

2) Next, you need to find one of Jon Smith Tricous six descendants. (Or at least get the name of one of them so you can make them selectable using the Tombstone of L & D cheat). If you have University, the easiest way to find one of them is to scroll through their pictures under the cap button. If you don’t have University, then you’re just going to have to wait until you run into one of them on a community lot or one of your teenagers brings one of them home from school. Here are what the descendants look like:

Since I have University, it’s pretty easy to get the name of one of the descendants. Here’s one now:

3) Now that we have a name for one of Jon’s descendants, we can use the Tombstone of L & D to make her controllable. To do this, press CTRL + SHIFT + C and type “boolprop testingcheatsenabled true” into the cheat box. Next enter some random lot (I’ll use the Beaker lot in this case) shift + click on one of the Beakers and select Spawn …Tombstone of L & D.

4) A tombstone should appear next to the selected sim. Now, click on the tombstone and select “Add Neighbor to Family.”

5) Keep scrolling through the names until you find the name of the descendant, (which in this case is Cadence). Click their name, they should now appear fully controllable on the lot.

6) Next obtain a Grim Reaper phone by using the “unlockCareerRewards” cheat that is described in Resurrecting Random Premades Parts 1 & 2. Have the descendant call the Grim Reaper and resurrect Jon Smith. After Jon Smith is resurrected have him call Grim Reaper to resurrect the rest of his family members. Since only eight sims can live on a lot at a time you may have to more some of his family members off of the lot to successfully resurrect all the Tricous.

And there you have it, another collection of premade sims resurrected. Isn’t this fun?

Next time we’ll be heading to Bluewater Village to resurrect pre-deceased sims that come with the third Sims 2 expansion pack, Open For Business. Don’t miss it!
