It makes that scene much more realistic as well. You can decide for yourself how many children you will give birth to, assign the odds for children, or keep it completely random.
Fun stuff! The have and adopt a child mechanic also has its flaws as they are completely separated in the game. With this quick fix, that will no longer be an issue as having a child satisfied the adoption want, and vice versa.
The actual task of caring for each and every toddler can get quite tedious. You simply place the bowl on the floor, add some cereal, and voila. Your toddlers can eat on their own. Worse mods have been made. For all the pet-lovers out there, your pets can now choose to sleep on the foot of the bed while being used by a child.
Take note, though, that once the child becomes an adult this will no longer be possible. They can still sleep on an empty side of a double bed though. So if you like to keep your pets close check this one out. With thorough playtesting, each life stage has been increased to give the game a more realistic feel in terms of growing up.
The base game included 10 options for job tracks. But with all the expansion packs you can find even more exclusive career tracks for the game. The Job Seeking Noticeboard actually makes a lot of sense: it adds a job board posting in community lots.
As stated by the modder himself, this is a great choice for poorer sims who just can shell out cash for a new fancy-schmancy Steve Jobs device. Among the available Lifetime Wants in the Sims 2, there were actually four college career paths that were added in the University expansion pack but later removed.
This mod brings those four Lifetime Wants back, as your sim may want to reach the top levels of the Artist, Natural Science, Paranormal, or Showbusiness careers. As some sims may aspire to raise multiple pets or become Mayor, your sim may prefer a career as an Ecological Guru, a Visionary in the world of arts, or even a Cult Leader.
Secondly, cockroaches in the Sims are nasty little pests that spawn when the environment is dirty. They cause your sims an unbelievable level of discomfort by cancelling actions and distracting them until the issue is resolved. The easiest way to get rid of these pests is stomping them out , but the success rate is pretty low. Making a roach infestation even more of an unwanted stress.
This simple mod fixes that problem. It makes your sims complain first instead of actually quitting. Now that may not sound like much of an alternative, but at least the choice will be left to you to decide what happens next. Your sim may end up clogging the toilet from forgetting to flush after using it. Well messy or neat, your sims now have been gifted with much better toilet etiquette as they will always flush after use.
Many aspects of the Sims games have been dulled down, making the game accessible to a much younger audience. As you probably already know what Woohoo stands for in the game, the mod increases the odds of conceiving.
Yes, elevators. They can, however, sleep on an empty side of a double bed. So, if you like to keep your pets close, take a look at this one. Caring for each and every toddler can be a time-consuming task. Fortunately, there is a fun and inventive way to automate the task. Your toddlers are able to eat on their own. Worse modifications have been made. Also Check: Sims 3 Expansion Mods. That will no longer be an issue with this quick fix, as having a child satisfied the adoption desire, and vice versa.
You can choose how many children you want to have, assign odds for children, or keep it completely random. If you enjoy virtual families, you should check it out. In that vein, have you ever noticed how the cinematic depiction of sending a child off to college always seems a little… off? It also adds to the realism of the scene. This one is aimed specifically at teenagers and up, with the goal of making their romantic relationships more interesting. If this is something you can relate to, you can probably already tell how this mod enhances your Sims experience.
Creating relationships, starting a family, and living your sim life. The Sims series is truly exciting because of significant experiences. That is the purpose of the next few mods on my list. This has a direct impact on romantic relationships because second cousins can no longer have them. Great grandparents can now give their great grandchildren a family kiss or encourage them.
There is also the type of Sims fan who devotes a significant amount of time to character creation and development. Relationship flags can be manually set or removed. CEP expands your options for customising objects by enabling colour settings for Maxis objects in the base game. Ghosts play an important role in the Sims games because they can perform a variety of activities that affect gameplay.
There are several Ghost mechanics fixes in Sims 2, but Cyjon built on previous versions to create his own. The Pushy Scares mod allows ghosts to successfully scare sleeping sims rather than having to wait for them to get out of bed. How thoughtful of them! The whining and arm gestures, on the other hand, are excessive.
It makes even adult sims appear childish. This mod corrects that. Your sim will no longer whine and throw tantrums until they die.
But be cautious, as you may end up reacting too late. In comparison to the vanilla mechanic, where knowledge of Fire Safety has no effect, sims who have studied Fire Safety are now better equipped to deal with fires. More knowledgeable sims no longer panic and instead try to extinguish fires as quickly as possible.
The mod is also well thought out. Your smarter sims, for example, will not work on fire tiles that have already been extinguished by someone else. Talk about collaboration! The modder even went so far as to include enhanced reactions for children who are familiar with fire safety. Instead of being completely useless, they are now more likely to use the nearest phone to call the fire department.
It was a good time. If your adult sims are aware that burning food is bad, why would they walk away from the stove while cooking? This is especially true in The Sims 2, as no one wants their sim to perish in a house fire. Not all of the players, to be sure. Because with this mod, your sim will no longer walk away from the stove while cooking.
Unless there are fewer than 8 unknowns available, the default game mechanic is that only unknown sims walk by. Are you bothered by the fact that your actual friends are less likely to walk around outside your house?
Hi Cindy, I recently downloaded a bunch of mods from your list. The only problem is my sims now reset when I hover over them or even other sims.
I can interact with other people living on the lot, but neighbours just trigger the reset. Was wondering if you knew what to do, Thanks!
It sounds like a mod conflict — probably one that modifies the pie menu in some way. I would start by taking those out and testing without them. I discovered your channel last week and today I started watching your reboot of Pleasantview and I felt like playing TS2 again, so I installed it and fixed all the graphics problems thanks to your great tutorial.
Do you know if these mods work for the base game, too? Hi Jimmy! You can always install them and try them out in a test neighborhood to see if you have any issues.
Can this be uninstalled? Do you have problems with this mod if you walk to lot? I love your YouTube channel. I like to zone out to it when I just want to chill.
Hi Megan! No harm done! Hi, again! Please help? Hi Kendra! I figured out how to do it not long after I sent the comment. But now I have another problem. I ran my Downloads folder through the Clean Installer in order to see if maybe I had some duplicates or conflictions. I took out the duplicates that I did find, but certain mods are still highlighted red, such as the CJ mods. If there is any reason why this would be happening and what I could do to fix this, please let me know.
The Seasons and Weather Controller mod download page seems to be down. Do you have any other link to that mod? Thanks for letting me know!
The one listed here should be the same as the other post. Thanks for catching that! Sorry for the late reply. Is it still possible to download the mod Adult-Teen attraction? Hi fanny! Thank you Cindy! This is just letting you know it modifies game behavior.
Do you remember? Can you post me the link to download these curtains? Hey Cindy, I love your channel keep up the good work. I really admire your game-play. Please help! Hi Corina! Find where it downloaded to on your computer — usually the downloads folder in My Documents.
Then cut and paste or drag and drop the package file into your Sims 2 downloads folder. I find your tutorials very helpful. I was looking at your list of Tools above and was interested in the Collection Creator. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how to download, install and use it.
The download links are at the very bottom of the first post. Underneath the pictures there are four files listed. One is a. They have a little green paperclip symbol next to them, meaning they are attachments to the post. Click on the. I hope that helps! Any suggestions? Hi Amy! Hi, thank you for sharing! I love it! I have a question for Equalgenetics mode. Does it only apply for hair and eyes? How about a skin color? Any idea for this issue?
Thanks in advance! Hi Luna! The equal genetics mod I linked to here is only for hair and eyes. As far as I know, there is no mod that changes the way custom skin tones work. The No Townie Regen is there. I have updated the link to make it easier to find. What mods does it not work with? Are there no alternatives with similar features? I am not an Inteen expert nor have I ever claimed to be. Also, this is a recommended mods list not an Inteen tutorial, so not sure what you were expecting….
Wow such a witty comeback. Rest in peace to the rest of your brain cells that it took to come up with that. Sorry about that commenter, Liz. He has been banned from this website and cannot comment here again. I have heard that you can teleport Sims over and ask them to join group and this will allow you to have more than 8. But might be worth a try! Keep it up! I downloaded all the mods from your list and installed them.
Everything was fine. But now have installed the same downliads folder into my game on another computer and now I cannot use any career cheats. As everything works fine on my other system, I cannot figure out what is wrong.
I can only look for job through the newspaper. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. It sounds like you have a conflict somewhere. A file may have been corrupted during the move between computers.
Thank you so much for this guide! Again, thank you so much. Your list is comprehensive and very helpful. For example , my sims and his wife had a horrible breakup and they went for being married to enemies to acquaintances. Hi Yoli! Hi Natalie! If you have the Ultimate Collection, you need the Apartment Life version. That girl who tells to thumbs up your series. I just install your mods in my game. Hi Ana!
In order to make the community time project load first, you need to rename the taxi charges mod to make it load last. Just put a couple ZZZs in front of the name because mods load alphabetically. Could you link me to it? Hi Abby! Midge the Tree on tumblr midgethetree made a mod that lets you choose which parent a baby should take the surname of! It works exactly like the marriage last name chooser, so no more futzing about in simPE with that. Link is good! Looks like the website is down.
I downloaded the Social Welfare mod and it seemed to work fine util I noticed my sims receiving their welfare money multiple times a day. I was unable to find any information on this issue online so I was wondering if you had ever experienced this before? Hi Maria!
I have never heard of this, but it sounds like a mod conflict to me. I would download the Hack Conflict Detection Utility and see if it finds any conflicts. Do you use Inteen? I find that it seems to conflict with a lot of mods like this.
Sometimes that will do it! I hope you get it figured out! Hej: i have a question about the child support mod: i dont know why but it dont work…or it works in certain days only?
This is how the mod is designed. I was wondering if you were going to make the apartments that you made in Strangetown available for download. Hi Paige! I have just discovered your page today. I am so glad to see the Sims 2 community is still active! I have not been very involved in the community and have played independently on and off for many many years.
I have never tried mods before, but this list makes it so much easier to get started! I do have one question that you may have addressed in your streams; how do you get the game to run properly on your Windows 10 pc? I am currently using an older and outdated Windows 7 pc and playing off the disks.
But the steps are pretty much the same for either one. Good luck and please let me know if you need any help! I just wanted to suggest a mod. I promise you I fell in love with this mod. Hi Hendrik! I think maybe I placed it in the wrong folder, so thanks so much for that tip! I will look into it! Hi Stephanie! Those are called want-fulfilling paintings and you can find them on Mod The Sims.
Could you also make a list of your updates of mod whenever you have updates? Hi Nathan! Yes, I will absolutely do this! I love your YouTube videos! I cannot wait for the University parts of round 5! Thanks Miles! I absolutely love your game plays and the sims 2! I have the ultimate collection but it is kind of glitchy, especially in build mode.
The screen flickers but it goes away quickly. I was wondering if you had any of those problems and if so how you fixed them? Second, you might need to use the graphics rules maker to ensure your game is recognizing your graphics card. I have no idea how old this thread is, but I hope you ended up getting the issue resolved — if not, though, I just found a solution! Not sure if this matters, but I play with the disc version of the game. Your content has been so, SO helpful for me coming back to the Sims 2!
But how did you get the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection? Hi Chelsea! One of my subscribers was able to get it as recently as a few weeks ago, so it can be done. You do need proof of owning at least the base game. My advice is to go onto Ebay and buy a cheap used copy of the game.
They should ask you for the CD key found somewhere on the manual or on a piece of paper that came with the CD version. Make sure the game you buy has a CD key with it before you buy! Good luck! I already own all the physical copies of the game and I still have the codes and all that. So, fingers crossed! Thanks so much for replying! And thanks for having such an amazing YouTube channel! Have you tried those clothing meshes in Liana Sims 2?
Hi Claude! I like to use Maxis-Match instead of the more realistic style she creates. Thank you for mentioning it, though.
Hi, I absolutely love your Sims 2 videos and I love all the mods posted on this page! I know you have a TON of custom content hairs, clothes, etc. Do you have any CC site suggestions for Sim hair.
Hi Ellie! I have listed my favorite CC sites on the sidebar. I hope this helps! Hi, I have a question concerning the Edukashun Iz Gud mod. If for example a sim with no college degree, who graduated from school with a C or higher is in a career track with level 5, can this sim still get a promotion with a chance card as usual? Btw, your blog is awesome. I think they can still get promoted through chance cards.
And thank you! Hello Cindy, My name is Cindy too. I play Sims 2, 3, and 4. Currently I have resurrected Sims 2 on on PC. I used to used the sims 2 murrill clock mod to slow down my game as to have time to play play realistically.
The MOD is still there. But I can no longer get it to show up in my game. Is there another MOD or another way to slow down the gamw that you would know of?
Thank you. Yes, there is another mod by Chris Hatch. Hi Cindy, Yes, there is another way to slow down the game now. In Buy mode, go to electronics and buy the alarm clock that goes on the nightstand next to a bed. In live mode, you can click on it to increase or decrease by 10 min of time. I hope this helps.
