If the player has The Sims 2: Seasons expansion pack , a Sim may wish for Romance from a wishing well. There is a chance that the wish will fail, and Mrs. CrumpleBottom will crawl out of the well and hit the Sim with her purse. When she attacks the Sim, they may be furious with her if she wins. She loves bowling more than she hates love, so romantic Sims are safe in bowling alleys.
Once she starts to bowl, she will never stop. She loves to play cards at a card table, or poker on a lot that has a poker table, and she will play forever unless she is interrupted. This is because she has no motive decay. Therefore, it can be useful for the player to have Sims on dates go to lots with poker tables or card tables. She also loves to drink. She will usually spend most of her time at a bar when there's one on a community lot.
If the player has the Bon Voyage expansion pack installed in the game, a new character is introduced. The Unsavory Charlatan , a venturing scam artist, just seems to be attracted to sweet ol' Mrs.
CrumpleBottom and if both of these characters are in the same lot he will try to have his way with her and serenade the 'sweet' old lady, in which he'll end up receiving one of Mrs. CrumpleBottom's famous purse-whippings. These ridiculous interactions may give the player some time to finish up in the lot and head home to safety.
CrumpleBottom almost always wears her signature outfit. This includes a long, straight Appe dress with a button-up overcoat, along with tight shoes, pearls, a pillbox-hat with a small daisy pinned on, and her large, dark purse. Her dress is a tanned cream colour. Her hair is grey and is always tied in a very tight bun. Her hair and outfit are unavailable for female elders without the testingcheatsenabled cheat. In the spin-off game, MySims , Mrs. CrumpleBottom makes a cameo as a costume.
There is a dress that resembles hers, along with a hat with hair in a bun like hers. The one currently on the article is him with Takemizu Village attire, even though that's what can be found in SimPE.
Although doing this might not be really a good idea since he's an object Sim, perhaps someone knows how to safely extract it. Nikel Talk — Vote! I see nothing wrong with keeping the one of him with the Takemizu Village attire, and in any case it's a pretty good headshot.
As we know, that's the one that can be found in SimPE and I think it's the headshot that will represent him the best. Syde talk contribs , April 6, UTC. Personally I'd stick with the one we've currently got - mainly because it's the one located in the game files. But I understand your point - it would be good to get a different headshot and he should be quite easy to clone. Hey Cindy! I am very interesting in mod which gives you a opportunity to choose a baby from the adoption pool like in the mod where you can choose a maid for example.
Does it exist? Hi karina! There is a mod that allows you to choose from the children and teen townies in your neighborhood for adoption.
But you might have to download the older version from Mod the Sims. The newer version that I linked to is updated for Apartment Life. Hi Cindy! I just wanted to let you know as I am pretty sure you have the ultimate collection? Have a great day! It still works fine. Squinge — More Employees For Hire Mod This mod makes all available Sims not employed in a shop show up in the hire sims dialog see screenshot.
I have a new lifetime want mod for you by the great J M Pescado. Description: Makes LTW, especially for careers, appropriate to the sim: A sim who has absolutely no interest in Crime is not suddenly going to want to become a Criminal. The results should be fairly intuitive Athletes like sports, Mayors like politics, Chefs like food, etc. Because elders cannot normally take regular careers, once a sim is an elder, he will no longer roll career wants other than his present career, if not maxed.
A CAS elder will thus not be stuck with an impossible want. Elder males can still have more children and are not limited in this way. Sims must meet the prerequisites at the time you roll for the LTW:. Elder AND! Zombie AND! Robot AND! Vampire Graduate Children:! I get overwhelmed easily when there are too many options, so this narrows it down to something manageable. So I am confused and a bit cautious. Or did I misunderstand everything completely and you have to do sth entirely else?
In the Sims 2, folders are read in alphabetical order. And within each folder, all the files are ALSO read in alphabetical order. I have never had any issue renaming individual mods to load last. As far as I know, changing the file name does not alter the mod in any way.
Hope that helps! Works for me! Thank you for all of your hard work and amazing Sims 2 content! I have a quick question. Are you still using this mod or a different, UC compatible version? Thank you! Also, just watched your tutorial vid on the neighborhood mods, so helpful! Thanks for putting that up!
Hello PleasantSims and my fellow Simmers! I need your help! Now I already made a backup of everything and transferred all the game data to an external so that I can just continue playing. My question concerns the Sims2Pack Clean Installer. I used it to install mostly lots and some custom content.
Is there any way I can transfer the lots I installed with the Clean Installer to an external hard drive and then to the new computer? Or will I have to re-install all my lots? If I do, what will happen to the lots I used in the game? If anyone can help me I would be eternally grateful!
I missed them! You may have to make an Electronic Arts folder first, but the game will still recognize it. This is what I do when I upgrade my computer and it works great. No need to backup everything separately.
Thank you so much for this amazing list! I just bought the game and this is amazing to have. Exactly what it sounds like. I use this for when I have two teen Sims in a relationship and one of them ages up before the other one, but I still want them to keep their romance.
Have looked into the mods listed but wonder if you could help with advice. Do you know of a similar way i can do this in the sims 2 at all? Well, you could use ACR autonomous casual romance to have no-strings attached woohoo. As long as they know each other a little, it should work!
I always look for Sims that have at least two bolts of chemistry to make things easier too. Hey cindy! Sorry for replying to your comment Max, I intended to leave a comment on the post but it somehow just replied to you ;;. Is there any particular reason you retired them? Do they cause conflict with any other mods you use, or do they not work properly? Or was it just a personal preference to stop charging sims for rides?
Thank you so much for your devotion and dedication to this game and to the sims 2 community! Hi Cindy, thanks for this awesome list! I was wondering about the mod I assume you use that reduces the amount fortune Sims get when they have the Smart Investing aspiration benefit. Thanks in advance. The amount gained or lost is based on a variable percentage of the family funds. Since my Sims are usually broke, they get less money! Sims with more cash get more or lose more through investment.
Oooh I did not know this! But it makes sense now that you say it. I had some pretty well off Sims who were making absurd amounts of money from it, and then it glitched and awarded them money a few times in one day! Thanks for the reply! Thank you so much for all of the resources and content you provide — I have found it so helpful and inspiring for my game!
Thanks so Much, Ro x. I use two mods for this — one for eye color and one for hair color. I use all the dominant files to make ALL colors dominant.
Is this a full fledged mod, or something you do manually? Save and remove the mod from your folder before playing again. Thank you awesome content and hard work!! Do you use any mod that makes the time pass while sims are on community lots? This is the one thing that annoys me in Sims 2. Sorry if it is on the list, I might have missed it. Your blog and your videos have inspired me to go back to Sims 2 and create my first custom neighborhood!
Cindy, help me please. Make a tutorial how to fix the Neighbor error for data access. I tried everything but anything worked. Sorry for the inconvenience but I just wanna somebody to help me. Thanks for this website and all you do. Do you know if any key on the keyboard does this while moving the mouse?
I read that you need the net framework 2. I looked for the. I only have basic knowledge about computers so I might just forget something really stupid ;. I have downloaded a lot of custom content from your mods list and it makes the game so much more fun. But one of these mods has corrupted my sims pregnancies. When they try to give birth they get stuck in a never-ending circle of giving birth to nonexistent babies.
I was wondering if you might have had the same troubles and maybe you know which mod is guilty of doing this. You are the queen of Sims 2 after all. I hope you are doing well. I would start by removing all mods related to pregnancy and see if you still have the issue.
Then, I would use the 50 percent method to narrow down the culprit. I recently started playing with ACR and was wondering how you can turn off pregnancy notifications, as I also got silent pregnancy and it just ruins the surprise. Is it possible? Hi Dani! ACR does not give pregnancy notifications. That must be coming from some other mod. Are you using story progression? Thanks in advance for responding! Also, delete the groups. Then when you load the game all thumbnails should be reset.
Thank you for this list and your wonderful videos. As if Simbology. Do you know any other link I could try? Simbology was taken down unfortunately, but the link above under Essential Mods links to my Mediafire where I have uploaded the mod! Hi Cindy, thank you so much for this comprehensive list! Also, you can check in Sim PE to see where they are coming from and even delete them if you feel comfortable with it. I first want to say that I really enjoy watching your content on Youtube.
Thanks to you, I see the many possibilities the sims 2 has. Until now I already play sims 2 since I was 10 years old, now 23 years old I only played without mods and cc. But after watching your tutorial, it seemed not to be too difficult to install it so I want to give it a try. I have been playing the sims 2 now for 4 years on my laptop, but never checked on corruption with the HoodChekcer which I just recently discovered existed via your video.
Do you think it is still worth it to keep playing in my neighborhood I have been playing for 4 years if I start to check for corruption from now on? At one hand, it would be hard for me to say goodbye to my sims. From what I can remember, I never did these major things that could cause your game to break removing families from the library, removing gravestones, making NPCs playable….
The only thing I might have done is maybe place a house in the library in which sims had lived in. Thank you already! Thank you so much for the recommendations—they really help keep the game alive and enjoyable. I just checked and they work fine for me! The file does have to be unzipped. I have a quick question, when you install the Alternate Pregnancy Controller Lite mod by Midgethetree, which item do I have to get in buy mode to edit the miscarriage percentages?
There is no item you can buy for this mod. If you want to reduce the chance, you will need to open the package file in Sim PE and edit it there. Hello Cindy, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for creating this fantastic mods list that has really helped me to get back into Sims 2.
I just have a small problem with a default skin I have downloaded, which has caused the censor to disappear, leaving me with nude sims. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks again. A skin should not be able to do that alone. I would check and see if it included a separate mod to remove the censor. Then you can just take that mod out. I noticed in some of your videos that when you mouse over lots it says their file locations. I always have it enabled in my user startup file.
Set to true to display the file location when you hover over the lot. I love and admire you so much!! I have scoured the internet looking for such a mod and I can't seem to find it. If it isn't too much of a hassle could you pretty please point me in the right direction. Hello Cindy! For example, I have a single sim that leaves to go to a community lot or go downtown for about 10 hours.
They return home, but since they are the only sim I have to sit and wait 10 hours for them to come back. In your streams, it seems like the time on the home lot just syncs up with the time you left the community lot without having to sit and wait. Are you using a different mod to sync the times? Perhaps the waiting is edited out? It syncs time immediately since the rest of the neighborhood is going at the same time. I recently played with the SP mod for like 7hrs straight and once some sims started dying my game crashed.
Love your content! Hi, sorry! Hi Cindy. First of all, I want you to know that you are incredible and for me your page is a better reference even than Wikipedia. Please never go away. Is it some kind of mod or an option that is activated in SimPE? I wish I could have it too.
Huge hugs and kisses! It is a cheat. I have it activated in my user startup file so it is always active, but you can also just type it into the cheat console. Thank you very much for answer me. I put it on right now! I really admire you, as another PCOS user, you are brave and cool. And I love your real hair!! Thank you so much for this guide. Or can I just download them like normal keep them with Clean Installer and keep them in sub-folders like in TS3? Hi Cindy, I absolutely love watching your Sims 2 streams.
Is there anyplace that I might be able to find them? Please help me with how to use sims 2 clean installer on normal package files. Do you happen to know of any alternate links? I brand new to modding the sims 2. Been modding the sims 4 for years since it is unplayable with out them lol. Thank you for your help!
I tried playing the game a few times now, but it either crashes or given me a game override error if I install any mods. Any advice? And also, if I manage to buy the UC disks, will they install properly on my computer Windows 10? Do you still use it? I would love to get it, because I hate my sims getting random money amounts just because they move out on their own. Thank you so much for your awesome content and your help!
Now the computer is working fine and my sims are no longer resetting. Try it, it might help. Hi Cindy, I have recently been watching your Sims 2 videos, especially your mods videos. While watching i noticed your camera is different to the original Sims 2 camera, is there a mod you are using for this? If so can you please tell me what it is?
I have been looking for it for a while now. I have the Ultimate Collection, can you tell me? Virtual Hugs from Brazil! Hi Cindy I hope you are doing well? My game kept on crashing so I did a deep clean deleted everything and then reinstalled the game and now busy with your amazing list of mods.
Thank you for your time. I really do appreciate it. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Setting page. Super confused. You need a file extraction program like 7zip or Winrar. Please could you let us know how you do it?
Ex: weird squiggly lines come up while my sim is on a computer. I only have 1 cc item which is the FFS lot debugger. Do I need to uninstall my game and packs and download the patches? Love your channel and blog! Currently going through a marathon Sims 2 setup ha. I noticed you have a few anti-corruption mods. But, I was doing some googling and noticed a bigger list here with more fixes too. Do you recommend adding so many of these?
I think my computer can handle it…. Should I just lower resolution or is there a way to scale the UI and make it bigger? I know Clean UI did some bigger fonts in places but like the catalog and sim bin for example are tiny at this resolution. This is the way the mod is designed. Adult sims created in CAS are assumed to be average high school graduates so will be limited to level 5. If you use the batbox to give these sims college degrees, then they will get the level 10 limit just like other graduates.
If I create a Sim that I think should have a career above level five, I give them a college degree using the batbox. Changing their high school grades will not change their ceiling a grade of A, B, or C results in the same level five limit.
The only thing that will change it is giving them a college degree. This mod allows Sims to work in ANY career up to level 5 without a degree. You may have another mod conflicting with this one if your Sims cannot take certain jobs from the noticeboard. But I think you are right, it might not have something to do with this mod but another mod that, when operated in conjunction with this mod, causes this issue. For the day setter mod how do you use it? I am not sure how it would keep the ages in sync.
It just allows you to change days. I use it when I move a Sim to a new house or move a family out.
