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

[SRUAlmn]

Just thought I would post a link to the thread I started for URBZ. Not one single person has posted on it, so I thought maybe I'd post the link so people would know it's out there

Sims 2 University. Yes, it looks like our Sims are going to college.
You can read more about it here:
http://thesims2.ea.com/index.php

There will be a new life stage introduced - young adult
Also there will be new career options.

I just hope they include lots of new objects, walls and floors.

None of my Sims are getting abducted by aliens. I'm a little bummed. I have a knowledge sim with a slutty romance sim wife and I want them to have an alien baby - it's a bummer

I was just cleaning out my favorites folder, and found this bookmarked from 2 years ago!

Anyone still playing? Has anyone got the new pets pack yet? I've only played the Pets expansion a little so far, but I LOVE it!

 

[olena]

Oh yeah! I love the Pets! I even made some terriers on the Sims 2 Excgange.

I tried the womrat...or whatever it is. It's a jittery pet. When the dog comes near or a ghost enters the room, he starts squeaking and climbing the walls.....

The Leader of the Pack Wolf came and hung out on the porch briefly. He drove the womrat crazy, too.

The Caliente family adopted Kirby and he loves going to community lots!

I gotta leave town this weekend. Y'all share your screens. I'd love to see a bunch when I come back.

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

Ooh, yay for pictures!

I don't have many yet-

Apparently, I am seriously in love with my little womrat guy.

Some of the things that Sim-Tallulah does just crack me up! The "super serious, very fierce!" claw sharpening faces are spot on!

Johnny Depp was playing some kind of game with her here- the real life Tallulah is not quite this aerodynamic. She looks like she's auditioning for a part in the Matrix here!

I love that the icons in the pets' taskbars are in black and white!

I also love that after playing with the catnip mouse (we call it kitty crack in our house), they get stars around their head, and run arond the house all crazy! (We call that "having the cat crazies")

 

[olena]

Those are GREAT! I want that nightgown...or whatever it is she's wearing! Please PM me and I'll get back to you next week.

I haven't had a house with cats yet. I've unlocked a bunch of the extra furs though.

I found even more codes here:

Can't imagine what I'd need with a purple dog, but hey. The star pattern is neat. Can we make those patterns? I want a Mickey-ear pattern dalmatian....

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

Thanks for the unlock codes!

I got mine at Target, so it came with the star dalmation- I'd like to make a Mickey one, too! I wonder if you can change the fur patterns the same way you make skins?

I can't remember where the polka-dotted shirt is from, but I'll see if I can figure it out!

 

[Wish Upon A Star]

I haven't been able to play in quite some time when my computer crashed, I went to reinstall SIMS 2 and the 2nd disc didn't seem to want to load, well, come to find out, I need an entire new 2nd disc because it got cracked and I haven't gone back out to buy it . . .I was trying to get one of the teacher's I work with to let me borrow his 2nd disc, but he never brings it in . . .it's not like I wasn't going to return it . . .

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

I went into the game last night with this grand plan of doing a big clean-out, deleting families and neighborhoods I never play, sorting out custom content... I ended up deleting 2 neighborhoods, but making another new one! Oops.

Has anyone done the legacy challenge?

and Wish Upon A Star, I love your bird picture! They look almost exactly like my two!

Bumping this post from the depths of the Dis. I wanted to know if anyone knows the actual release date of The Sims 2 Seasons? I've been on a Sims frenzy lately. That and I love to see all of your stories and characters!!!

Feb 27!
I don't play more than a few times a month, if that, but can't wait for my Sims to ice skate!

I'm excited, too. I'm trying to figure out who to pre-order from.

To keep busy, I've downloaded an entire Neighborhood and I've had fun playing many of the families.

It's called Beacon Falls.

[Desiree]

Ooh you are so evil for posting that neighborhood!! I'm going to go download it now!!!!

Bring on the end of February!! It may be the only way I can ever get to play in the snow by letting my Sims do it for me!

LOL! Tell me about it! I read on TS2 BBS today that there may actually be snow days for Sim kids.....no school! I hope it's true. Those kids never get a break.

About Beacon Falls, all the families have back-stories and you can find drama of every sort there. I really like a lot of the community lots, too. I will warn you that downloading the entire (Downtown & college included) took me a while. There's another site with pre-made neighborhoods.

I've only downloaded Beacon Falls so far. I think there's another downloadable neighborhood called Riverside. If you download anything good, share what you find.....

Snow days!!!!!!! Awesome!!

Cool thanks for those links. I will check them out too. Good thing dd is going to be at her dad's house this weekend! It looks like I'll be spending alot of time simming!

I will definitely share any new ones I come across!!! Thanks again!!

 

[WDW Poly Princess]

Yay- I'm so glad this thread has been active again!

I may have to DL that neighborhood! Although I still haven't finished the Legacy family I started last January!

I also started a neighborhood where it's my goal to move the classic Townies (Goopy, Benjamin Long, etc.) each into their own home, and let them live actual lives, instead of being doomed to forever townieness!

Can't wait for Seasons!

Has anyone gotten Sims Life Stories? I have it, but I've only had time to play it once. I might play tomorrow - I'm off and my kids will be going to daycare (I'm an evil mommy, aren't I???)

Can't wait for Seasons.

I don't have it yet but I'd love to hear some of your reviews before I decide to pick it up. I'm anxiously awaiting Seasons though!! So if you have Life Stories, can you tell us what you think?!?! Is it worth the $ or should I just wait for Seasons?
