More fun with Gender Behaviour

[strangetomato]

As a follow up to my previous post where I was playing around with the "set gender behaviour" feature in InSIM, I tried setting a male sim as female. A couple of people had posted comments wondering if a male sim could get pregnant if set to behave as a female and the answer is right here:

It seems they can! As you can also see, they use the female birth cut scene, instead of the male alien birth cut scene. Setting the gender from female to male essentially changes the sex of the sim completely. In this example, Ripp had a female voice and female behaviour whenever the sexes actually have actions that differ (which isn't very often, I'd like to note—the game is actually very general that way, with males and females using the exact same animations, though I'd argue it leans towards the feminine for mannerisms in most cases) .

Oh, and this is the Ripp I used in All That Remains. The cast of that story live on in the downtown of my legacy hood, minus Ophelia, who actually did die. I'm not entirely sure why I did it that way (saving the game with her dead, I mean), but she left behind two children to two different fathers. And the father of the baby in this pic is exactly who you probably assume it to be.

Nice!! I didn't ever try this with a birth, although I did change a female sim to male with the "set gender" thing a loooong time ago just to see what happened. I ended up absolutely falling in love with her... she looked female, but had a male voice, walked like a man, etc. And... ahem... I had Crammyboy's hack and she had that too. It was awesome, lol!

I do like how the males can get the female birth cutscene by doing this though! I'm not sure if it would ever come up in a story to use the pictures from the cutscene, but awww... look what an adorable picture that is of Ripp! :)

I'm LOLing at you using Crammyboy's hack! That's awesome. I've been going all out with my female to male Sam Thomas, using all the androgynous meshes I can find and female facial hair, etc. He really does pass as a male now, though one with a slight frame. It's cool that it's possible to do that in the game.

It is a cute pic, isn't it? He looks so happy. I'm liking that hair on him, too. The baby was a boy, and I named him Ron. The other kids are named Willow and Ripley. The whole family is living in the House of Fallen Trees right now. I'm having fun with them.

Now I really, really want to try this in my game.

You should! It's easy to set up with InSIM, and just as easy to switch back. It's lots of fun to mess around with.

It's interesting, isn't it? I wonder what other things this setting might enable. I'll have to play around with it some more to see what happens.

The expressions in the cut scenes are some of the sweetest in the game. It makes me wish I had a posebox that could access them.

Nice x]
