New Sim: Adult Zoe Zonderland

Creating a new sim is not what I usually do or what I am actually good at. The sims that I create are the ones that I really really want to use in my game (someday). I do hope you like them too though.
              
She studies psychology and is very good at it. She's a really party animal, but really panicky about her exames, although she always passes easily. She likes crips and Cola too, but just as Steve she takes better care of her health as the others. She has many many boyfriends (though mostly not at the same time). But she sometimes means it more seriously than you'd think.

New Idea: Multiple Cellphones in Game

Multiple cellphones in game

Probably a situation you've been in before. You see many different default replacements and you can't choose, but you must because it's just not possible to have more than one installed. Or at least one PER GAMESESSION.
I play in a rotation and I want my sims in different households to have different cellphones.
Let say I have 3 different DR cellphones in my downloadfolder (named A, B, C).
I play with household 1 and I have in my downloadfolder DR cellphone A unzipped and B and C zipped.
Then in another gamesession I play household 2. Then I have in my downloadfolder DR cellphone B unzipped and A and C zipped.
Okay, it's just a workaround and you have to keep your attention to it, but it's better than having the same cellphone in all your pictures for all your households all the time.
It works great for me, so I hope it can work for you too.

If you have any questions about How I Play, just send me a PM (Facebook Messenger).

New problem solved: PC updates suddenly while playing

PC updates (for no reason) while playing

First of all: Updates are really important. Update your computer at least once a month.
If your computer shuts down sometimes to update (while playing of course) and it seems it's for no reason....
There's always a reason for your PC.
The reason is found in settings. Your PC asks regulary to update. You can postpone that, but at one point he's just going to do it whether you like it or not (while playing of course).
Now I said your PC's asking you regulary to update. That's really true, but maybe some day you (or someone else who uses the computer) changed the settings so you don't see such notifications or you ignored the notification without reading, or missed it because you were away from your computer,...
So to make sure that the PC doesn't shut down while playing, there are a few things you can do:
  1. Make sure you check whether your computer has already downloaded updates or if they're available before you start playing. (see the link how to go to settings)
  2. (A bit last resort) Change the settings so the computer won't download/install new updates automatically (not recommended) Don't forget to check for updates yourself at least once a month!

Here's a link to how to change the update settings for Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7: https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/it-services/information-security/windows-updates
ALWAYS ASK THE OWNER OF THE COMPUTER (EG.: YOUR PARENTS) IF YOU CAN DO THIS


P.S.: I am talking about Microsoft Windows. I have no experience in this matter with Apple Mac or other operating systems.

New Idea: Archeaologist

Being an archeaologist

I think the feature came with the Bon Voyage expansion, but in my game it's certainly possible for sims to dig and to discover some valuable stuff. At ModTheSims HugeLunatic made a mod that makes it possible to decide what objects your sims can find while digging: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=531434
That way you can set up a concept of your sim being a archeaologist. You can use this mod so that your sim finds stuff from medieval time or older as you can also use custom objects with this mod. I haven't had the time to try this yet, but I am certainly excited about the idea.

If you need any help with setting up this concept in your game, just let me know.

New Idea: Friends With Benefits



Friends With Benefits

Maybe someone already had this idea, but in my game I normally play quite normal relationships. Not that much of cheating even. But if you like some more excitement than just cheating, then why not try the concept of Friends with Benefits. It's just like it's said. Being friends, but sleep together too without any commitments. There's a movie called Friends With Benefits. I haven't seen it yet, but when I came across the title, I thought it was a nice idea for the game if you're out of ideas somehow. It can bring you back to the story of the game.

New Idea: W817 - S2E04





In general the idea is to give you one episode per blogpost. In every blogpost I'll shortly describe what happens with the main characters of W817 ((W"eight" = Wait) Dutch: Wait A Second) in that certain episode.
It's a Flemish show that can be best compared with Friends. I call it "The Flemish Friends".

I do this because it's mainly about a group of students in college and so with these episode ideas we have something new to play for our sims in college.

Or you can play this in the game as you wish.
I know W817 maybe even better by heart than Friends (that's saying something).

Also like Friends this series was made at the end of the ninties, begin nillies so this is actually very suitable for The Sims 2 as there were no smartphones or internet like we know now.

There are no seperate seasons and episodes don't have a title. There are 131 episodes and I will number them accordingly.

Meet the characters
Here you can find an overview of all the characters and their personality: 
https://s2idownloads.blogspot.com/2020/05/new-idea-w817-introduction.html
Steve
He does his best to get Tom put of his staring depression.
Bridget
She's getting ready for the jobinterview. It appears the CEO where she needs to have the interview with is the same pervert that got her fired at her previous job. She talks to the other jobcandidates to get them down and make herself look better. When she gets home she sits down staring in depression talking about the pervert.
Tom
He is still depressed. He doesn't  react to anything. At one point there is so much noise in the house (Jasmin and her father) that Tom reacts that he wants to be depressed in silence. After he says he wants to be depressed in silence he stopoed talking again. He starts talking a bit but he's still depressed. He doesn't  believe in love anymore. He makes Steve depressed too and now they are both staring in depression.
Zoe
She tries to get some reaction from Tom but it doesn't  work. She didnt realise Akke used to be that much in love with her. They are really close friends. She gives a note to Jasmin that convinces her to start talking with her father. She talks to both Tom and Steve. And they tell her she has broken dozens of hearts because she has had a lot of boyfriends. She then staring in depression too.
Akke
He suggests to Zoe that he can talk to Tom. He was once in love with Zoe. He tries to cheer up Tom, Steve, Zoe and Birgit by making light (there's none), music (but it's a depressing song), the weather with his favorite weatherwoman (but it's  a man). Then he's down too.
Jasmin
Her dad calls the friends. She says: "Why are you calling me her? I am staying over at Anneleen." Then she realises she just confessed she lied to her father and she wants to run, but she walks into the door. The friends ask her for an explanation. She doesn't  want to go to boarding school and he agreed she could stay over a few days at Anneleen before goong. But she wanted to prove she can be independent. She really doesn't  want to go home with her father. She goes to the bathroom and locks the door. They have a talk about the death of her mother and that she feels she a burden to her father. They talk it out and she doesn't  have to go to boarding school.

New Translated Career: 3t2 Jedi Order

This career has been written by Kawab, creator at MTS, for The Sims 3. The Sims 3 career can be found here: http://www.modthesims.info/d/515526/jedi-order-career.html

A lot of other creators at MTS who've created TS3 and TS4 careers have given their permission to me to convert their careers to TS2.
Here you can find which creator, which careers and when they will be published:

This career has been translated into German by Steph21

Find it here: Sims 2 Idea > TS2 Careers > Translations
Download @ SFS

If you have University
You will notice this career might be linked to some majors (look at the overview to see if and which ones) and that your sim might need a degree or not (not necessarly a degree in a major that the career is linked to. Any major would do).
If you don't have University, this career works as a normal career.
Also if you look with the Job Board or with another object mod for this career, the degree does not matter. You will always find the career for your sim.
If you have any questions, you can always ask!

Thanks
