How do you force ghost to spawn?

onlyabidoang

So I'm working on a video and I really need to spawn a ghost from the tombstone. I waited for several days but the ghost didn't appear. Is there a way to force them to appear, maybe by using cheats or mods? I can't wait because I really need a bunch of ghosts at once.

Thanks!

I once got ghosts with this trick.
I had more than three gravestones on lot, so, ghosts spawn every day in there.
When I wanted ghosts to come out, I pressed Ctrl+Shift+C and wrote sethour 22 and pressed enter.
Ghosts seem to spawn more on Residential lots. When they spawn on Community lot, then they seem to disappear immediately.

Ok thanks for the tips! I'll try it the next time I play

I know they spawn when lightning hits their headstones- day or night they'll poof right out. Maybe the weather reward can help... There is also some transparent colored skins to make them look like ghosts; except the Sims don't float like ghosts.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I really need the real ghost to spawn because I wanted to showcase more on ghosts behavior. Also, the lightning method seems to be useful, but how do you make the grave to be struck more frequently? Are there any mod that can force lightning to struck?

Ah, I didn't know it was for showcasing ghosts.
There's an Aspiration reward which lets us change the weather. I believe it storms more in Spring or is it Fall? ... I don't know of any mods or cheats.

Yeah, I already used the reward since the beginning. I think storms is heavier on spring from what I've read. Also, thanks for the answer! It really helps!

Could you elaborate on the weather reward? Where do I find it? TYIA

Hi

On the User Interface panel where the inventory is, a little lower down is the Aspiration Rewards button. The Weathernaught 57X is 7000 points and some info about it when you click on it.

Also, in spring, it has a "create weather > thunderstorm" option. (IIRC, hail also works? Keep your playable sim indoors to prevent adding a new gravestone.)
