I've started a new project that hopefully will do some good in our physical world and our sim world.
In an effort to keep the public awareness regarding missing people, I create sims in the likeness of people who are missing. This is my effort to help and support the families of people who have disappeared.
It's entirely possible that a sim player will recognize someone, have information about the missing person and will make the call to help the family and police. These special sims will be tagged as a Missing Person and a brief description of the case will be added if possible. All of the names used are the actual names of a Missing Person and further info as well as contact info can be looked up online by doing a name search.
The actual job description of the missing persons is included when known and the traits of the sim mirror the person to the best of my ability when I have info as to their traits, most of the time I have to just blindly create traits.
It's not always possible to get an exact likeness but I try to get the hair color, eye color and skin tones as close as I can.
Sometimes I have to rely on police sketches or poor black and white photos. To me, the likeness is not really the point; keeping these people alive to the public is the most important aspect because someone out there knows something and the families need to know.
This is an effort born of the love of humankind and my need to do something to help those who suffer the neverending pain of wondering what happened to loved ones.
August 2012 After installing/removing my game 100 times and still not able to play, I have not been able to play my game in more than a year. I have been heartsick without it and I can't afford to buy a new version of the game so it will work right. I'm playing the lottery in hope of winning enough money to buy a new version so I can play and create again. I may have to wait for Xmas.
