Ani's Dexter Bad Bear

[magicktouch]

For those who might have missed it, Check out Ani's Dexter Bear in the downloads. It is a game changing mod, if you play with a certain twisted mindset. He(she?) deserves a ton of credit for thinking direct and out of the box on this one.

With a little work and a couple of talented coders this item could be the basis of an entire new arc of gameplay by adding a murder mystery element to the game/and or fugitive-perfect murder.

Ani, for those of without the training and skill to do such things, I thank you.

[BL00DIEDHELL]

LMAO. I love the way that Sim killing is stuck in the *hobbies* section

[Vattenlilja]

Wow, this is awesome! I passed it without looking when I saw it in the downloads section; I thought it was just a toy. Thank you for pointing out that it's so much more!
*installs*

I agree, Ani is a genius to be able to come up with this idea, and execute it.

However, i think some people may not be happy with it... i already have seen threads on the official website discussing murder in the game and people have not been happy about the idea (some love it though)

Still, awesome. Very awesome. Ani deserves thanks.

He/she is so creative and has changed an important aspect of the game.

We've been through this discussion before, but people can be oversensitive about a game meant for fun. They think just because their 10 year old plays means the game should remain at that level for everyone. When really it would make much more sense to include more adult themes in the game and then have an option to disable it in an options menu soeveryone can be happy but still feel challenged-but i doubt the companies would ever welcome that idea.

So thank you to Ani for making the sims 3 that much more tolerable lol

or just teach their kids the difference between reality and video games. ಠ_ಠ
i never had social problems beyond the norm, and ive been playing " adult " games since i was around 8-9 years old. my parents took the time out of their day to make it clear that fantasy land is fun and all, but it stays a fantasy...
/rant

also, a question about the mod that i have not seen answered: what color will the ghosts of the deceased, depending on the cause, be?
i could use some fire/electrocution ghosts in my game... >:)

This may not be a download I will put in my game, but it is a great idea. There are so many different game play styles and "Dexter" will fill a gap that is in TS3. I am so glad that people like Ani and so many others are around to make this game better and give us the ability to customize the game just the way each of us want it.

[tizerist]

I agree thats its a big step forward. There are certain mods I miss from sims 2, and this bridges a gap somewhat (a bit)

I hope this gets improved upon, a knife thumbnail and a hammer thumbnail would be better, and I would get rid of the firepoke (it looks weird) but it is progress.

[magicktouch]

I agree Sookielee and SuicidiaParasidia. While Dexter Bad Bear maynot be something I use in everygame --the same way I don't fish/garden or find a career in every game either, it is nice (I use the term loosely in this instance) it is there.

and I will never understand how parents of the last two generations can get thier collective panties into a twist about video games when it's been shown again and again the outrageous behaviour you find in kids who make the headlines is from bad (or lack therof) of parenting not what Elmo told them to do.

and should these "good moral folks" win the arguement and get the bear removed from MTS or other mainstream sites, I'm pretty sure SexySims and others will welcome him home with open arms. You don't ever really remove anything from the internet it's like trying to take pee out of a swimming pool.

Death by stabbing = starving
Death by beating = burning

So they get what ever colours those two death create.

Thank you everybody for the great feedback. I must admit I'm suprised how many people have downloaded, and how many liked it. I was expecting way lesser numbers. Hopefully I can get rid of the remaining bugs, and hopefully one day there will be custom animations, and somebody will make me one that would suit this mod, because 3D meshing stuff is way out of my leage.

and should these "good moral folks" win the arguement and get the bear removed from MTS or other mainstream sites I doubt this will happen, becuase compared to the baby barbique, my dexter is child's play :D

[simbalena]

I discovered dexter yesterday and can't wait to download it... thanks ani :)

thank you for the answer. ( and the mod! ) :3 *goes to dl it, because she wants more varied ghosts on the lot*

maybe you would like to [ suggestion ] add something that would result in an electrocuted ghost? maybe something funny like killing someone via prank hand shocker. xDD ;3 dont bite my head off please.
*has beheld people lynched for suggesting mods be made.*
personally i dont have the brain capacity to make mods...but i like to think i am appreciative of those who do.

Version 1 was suppose to have shooting with the repoman gun which would have been killing by electricity, but getting the gun was not as straight forward as the other objects, so the code for it in the mod, but commented out untill I figure out how to get the gun. Hopefully v2 will have it working.

ah, really? that sounds pretty cool. i wish you luck in furthering your creation[s]! (:

*has downloaded & installed it successfully--this mod is incredibly useful for the gold digger LTW*

[magicktouch]

what about the moodlet manager? Didn't know if that would work for the "gun"

[Inhuman One]

Maybe a repogun that looks more like a real gun could be made to use for this?

The step after that might be to have the gun as a decorative item that could be placed in a gun cabinet, against the wall, on a table or something and could be put in the inventory like the teddybear and would give the option to kill as well.

[Liddylulu]

it wont let me put wittle kind dexter in my sims inventory :(

Why did you bother digging this old and buried thread up? wouldn't it have been easyer to just read the intro page of the mod? The whole intro page starts with what to do if dex is not working.
Framework fail == object mods not working.

:jest: Okay, I just have sims 3.. Does she have one for JUST sims 3? Cause all I saw were for ambitions, Late night and World Adventures. And I just want sims 3. Does anyone know where I can download one for sims 3?

If you are using the latest patch, it should still work regardless if you have any EPs or not. Why did you 'necro' the thread just for this question? You could've just asked in the comments section of the mod, or asked the creator themself. :faceslap:
