How do I get the Maxis Sims, like Bella Goth Back?

[LBonne24]

I noticed that the in-game sims, Bella Goth, and Bob Pancakes, etc, don't exist in my game anymore. I wanted to move them into their empty houses, but I can't find them. They aren't in my library, or in the gallery. Do you know how to find them, and save them, townies and the like, so that they can be in world?

I figured it out. I had to google the original Sim 4 families, found it on wiki. Then search for them in community. Search harder for the originals. Then save to library. Then open CAS, then open gallery, then click the household, and replace the random sim with the new household. Then either click the checkmark and play, or click the folder, to save to the personal library. After that, go to manage world (if you clicked play) or household management (if you clicked the folder). Then choose a lot, move-in, then evict.

Done!

Start a new game and go to the household manager. There you should find their Sims. Take them to CAS from there and saved them to your library.

Then start your current game and re-place them through your library.

I tried that, but I'll try it again.
