The Sims 2....Share your screens and stories here!

Well lots of people were having them....and right off the bat, too. I guess there are no absolutes.

Bella is especially becoming a deepening mystery with no resolution in sight. It's a hot topic on the TS2 BBS. Many have claimed to have found her, but they've offered no proof. As time goes by, people are getting skeptical and demanding for such proof. I'm sure Mrs. Goth will surface at some point. Meanwhile, I'll just busy myself with all my families. I wonder if I have too many going right now...

That is why I do not have enough time to play with my families. I am constantly building them new homes and moving them. I am obssesed with bulding and decorating the houses. I swear I need more wall and flooring choices.

One of my teen sims finally grew up into an adult. What did I do? I moved her out a spent a few hours building her the perfect single woman starter home in shades of pink. It is so cute.

I think I need an intervention. LOL

Uggh I went back to find Bella in Strangetown to get a picture but it was a similar looking character with the same name - it's not the same Bella


My fortune sim is a pain in the neck. He's not happy unless he's buying things and he wants the same things over and over again. There's only so many shrubs, trees, and flowers you can put in the yard!

You must be talking about a Fortune Sim! LOL!

As for Build and Buy Mode, don't you just LOVE the eyedropper tool?

 

[olena]

So you think YOUR Sims stink?

I had a Sim that passed gas after every meal, but she didn't stand there in smell it. That's pretty funny.

My sims have never had twins and they have had 3 i think..

I can't wait! Do they look alike, or are they different?

 

[olena]

My twins? I haven't had a close look. I'll check or post a pic....

 

[SoonerKate]

My twins look exactly the same.

Now that they're toddlers, all they want to do is disappear and go play in the toilet.

They throw enough water on the bathroom floor and start playing in it. I try to give them things to do. I'll direct them to the bunny to work on charisma or the xylophone to enhance creativity. They sit there for hours.

OK! As promised, here are the Smith boys. Ophelia Specter married Johnny Smith and they started their family. The first pregnancy resulted in twins, Zapp and Kiff. They immediately got pregnant again. Along comes Dex. Preggers again! Say hello to Morbo! Yes, I was on a Futurama kick... All the kids have alien acnestry, so it was fun. Johnny Smith has nice green skin and blond hair. Ophelia has very dark skin and I can't remember what hair color she originally had. I made her a blond. All four boys look alike. I've varied their hair styles , so I could keep track of who's who. Yes, managing 4 kids is VERY challenging. It was especially tough with multiple babies. I let the parents drink the Elixir of Life. Ophelia is a family Sim. I've thought about indulging her aspiration to have 10 kids. That would involve aging the others and moving them out pronto. I kept trying for a girl but to no avail. Since the boys look alike, I'm guessing future kids will seem like clones. Zapp and Kiff are about to become teens. Maybe adulthood will distinguish their looks? Anyway, here are some pics!

Zapp and Kiff. They're very close, so it was easy to get them to hug.

Morbo and Dex aren't close at all, so I had to settle for this kind of shot.

I made an elf family last night. They are sooo cute. I used the pointy ear head and then designed my two characters from there. Gave them the last name of elf, not original i know but works for me...


Did ya read on the sims boards about the person making a haunted neighborhood? I think I might try that tonite or tomorrow, but just a haunted mansion... Create a big family (not toddlers/babies) with the intention of killing them off so they will haunt the house... If I kill them off in different ways, they should do different things. Death by fire, water, etc... Let some of the graves be vandalized to make the owner of the grave a little mad... Then after I have the mansion very haunted, move a normal family in... should be interesting.
Big question is will I be able to purposfully kill my lil sims i made, awwwww, thats the hard part.

I hadn't read about that! HOW COOL!

How about some pics of your elves?

I forgot to mention that Zapp and Kiff had their birthday party. They're all grown and CUTE!

I'm currently living in Veronaville with my adopted daughter Lillibeth, who just had a birthday!!

She had red hair and blue lips, and always dresses like a pirate...she's so adorable!!

Anyways, Lillibeth has been working hard at school to get her A+ report cards. Well, I invited the headmaster over to the school for a little meet and greet, to try and get her in a nice private school.

Unfortunately, early that afternoon, Juliet (who I've really been swooning over lately,) came over for a visit. So, I spend most of my day impressing her. Now, Lillibeth was upstairs sleeping in her underwear...which I don't why she likes to do that but she does.

I waste all my energy/comfort/hunger/bladder on Lillibeth. Then, the headmaster arrives. I greet him, then sprint to the bathroom, while he waits out on the front porch. Conversation finally gets started about 15 minutes late. I go inside to make dinner, but Juliet distracts me...and so I set dinner on the floor in the middle of the kitchen to tickle her. Naturally instead of resuming what I have already put out...I find it more logical to pull out an entirely different meal, which I then set on the counter since the headmaster is interested more in talking than eating.

At this point Lillibeth wakes up and runs downstairs in her underwear, to the dismay of the whole household. I immediatly send her back upstairs to get dressed. Meanwhile, the nanny arrives to take care of Lillibeth while I head to work, except I can't head to work right away because I'm pleasing the headmaster.

She comes back downstairs, while my hygene is getting so poor that my odor is reeking through the whole house. I try to schmooze the headmaster, and actually LOSE points in the process! Finally, my energy runs out, and I pass out next to the leftovers on the floor, leaving my carpool to drive off without me.

Lillibeth manages to gain some redemption while I'm out cold, but the headmaster gets tired of our insane household, says something along the lines of..."I don't this household is the type our school would be interested in", and then runs out the door. The phone rings to tell Lilibeth I'm fired, and to top it off, I don't have enough money to pay the nanny who takes the couch with her as she leaves...

I think Lilibeth's gonna be stuck in public ed for a while.

I can see it all now, VH!

My Sims are terrible cooks. They had three seperate fires while cooking in one day. And they all have at least seven blips on the cooking skills. I don't know what's wrong with these people.

I am really enjoying this game. Some of the motions that go along with the actions are hysterical.

[Crankyshank]

oh I am so glad my sims aren't the only ones burning the kitchen up left and right.

It's so fun to watch their expressions

Does the Sims 2 slow down the computer at all? We have a few Sims game and they seem to suck up the memory. My DD wants it, put I'm afraid the computer will crash. We have a 2002 DELL, 2.3 gig

 

[cassi06403]

Sims 1 ran fine on my comp, didn't slow it down really. Sims 2 slows it down ALOT.

Not a very technical answer, but I hope it helps some.
