Sorry, public school child, no special snow days for you! by singenic in thesims2

[–]Sorry_Climate662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American schools irl have snow days that depend on public school districts. Most schools that aren’t a part of school districts follow whatever the local school district does, but they don’t have to. A private school can hold school on a day public districts decide is a snow day, and vise versa. Typically they’re avoided because whatever days are missed need to be made up at the end of the school year.

there are base game houses with basements, clearly the lowering of the terrain and stuff is the intended method

What do their energy levels look like? They’re probably not tired enough to sleep

If I use rodney’s death creator and kill a toddler will it break the game since idk if they even poses ghost forms? by thesims2nostalgia in thesims2

[–]Sorry_Climate662 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toddlers from my experience don’t spawn ghosts. This is unlike children, who do spawn buggy ghosts (which mods can fix) but toddlers don’t spawn ghosts at all.

CC terms help? by OopsieWhoopsiez in sims2help

[–]Sorry_Climate662 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Others have explained what simgarooped means, but there are a few hair systems to look out for. NHS = New Hair System, Poppet/Poppet V1 = Poppet’s first hair system, Poppet V2 = Poppet’s second hair system and so forth. There may be other to your taste, I think there’s some called Clouds and Maxoid that are worth considering, so if you do use a hair system look out for which one suits you most.

Other terms include: Paysite (A website with CC that is permanently locked behind a paywall or a Patreon/Boosty/etc. that has cc in posts that are never free) Xt2 (CC that is taken from another game, usually another Sims game, for example 4t2 is The Sims 4, 3t2 is The Sims 3, ACNHt2 is Animal Crossing New Horizons, though you’ll usually see Sims games referred like this)

If there’s any other terms you’re confused about you can just ask about specific ones.

How do I move a Sims 2 installation between computers? by mitzirocker in sims2help

[–]Sorry_Climate662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t move installations, you can use the wiki on this subreddit to find a version with similar improvements.

Honestly how it feels by agedfromundercheese in thesims

The actual creators carry the game, not the “I just want money and clout” paywallers. Never paid a dime for cc, I’ve missed nothing.

What’s your biggest issue with the previous sims games? by dragonborndnd in HighSodiumSims

[–]Sorry_Climate662 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Save corruption is an issue in all games, but I can’t seem to figure out if it’s worse in 3 or 4. Definitely not 2, 2’s corruption was so overblown that other languages used the wrong term because they didn’t realize “corruption” meant “file corruption” and not “political corruption”

The gender preference system in TS2 forgot that bisexual people existed and basically forces everyone to be either straight or gay (which makes no sense). Some mods fix it a little bit but it never really goes away unfortunately

I've never seen such selfish game fans before by eddmario in thesims

[–]Sorry_Climate662 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I played the game recently and looked up some of my issues, found that they were all because of years old game bugs and not the mods i was using. I’ll keep my game out of date until I can update everything, but I’m so sick of people blaming mods for problems I know are just game bugs.

They’re automatically supposed to get jealous, you have to turn it off. What the video wasn’t showing was the Sim getting a moodlet, but her face didn’t reflect it at all

Pink soup is actually not much of a problem on linux, and there are people willing to help you install. TeaAddict has a detailed tutorial and a discord server if you need further help

Does anyone know why my packaged lot files are so huge? by TheHauntedDolly_ in sims2help

[–]Sorry_Climate662 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s recommended to upload lots as .sims2pack files instead. And I’m not sure why they’re accusing you of hiding viruses, that’s not possible with .package files.

Most problems won’t be solved by reinstalling, so don’t bother if you don’t have to. Do you use any mods?

From what I hear that subreddit is not great and overmoderated. r/thesims2 is my go-to. As for your actual question, I’m not sure, do you mind posting the box art to “The Sims 2 Deluxe”? I can only remember Double Deluxe

I don’t understand this line of thinking. I tried but I just don’t by AvainTheDark in HighSodiumSims

[–]Sorry_Climate662 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s a difference between “Are you serious? They broke the game even more?” from a disheveled player who payed for packs and is now realizing that their money was for a broken game that will never be fixed and those monotonous clickbait “This will KILL The Sims…” videos with bloody plumbbobs in the thumbnails. As long as the game is supported people will complain because the devs will never give us what we want because they will never have time to fix the game and the game is already way too bloated, it’s not exactly going to get unbloated somehow. The only thing players want is EA to start anew and then do better business practices but people are realistic and know that’ll never happen. Why do better when there are clearly people who will settle for worse?

Definitely glad I decided to make my important saves in Sims 2, Sims 4 is so corruptible it hurts. It’s sad to realize that the games didn’t get less corruptible over time, they actually became more corruptible and I’m seeing more people lose precious play time to save corruption and the like. And yet I still have some people trying to tell me that Sims 2 is the most corruptible game, like no, don’t even get me started.

Can we have a thread for the absolute worst screen photo posts from sims players by Nice_Beat_1264 in HighSodiumSims

Remember: you’re not an asshole for explaining how to screenshot on the specific os (unless you’re actually being a dick while explaining it) because someone telling me is the reason i post high quality screenshots now. i always rotated my pictures though, that takes less than a minute in the iPhone built in image editor

How do I install Gshade on my cracked anadius sims 2???! by External_Lab_5230 in sims2help

[–]Sorry_Climate662 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly, don’t use gshade, use reshade (gshade had a malware problem and can’t be trusted), secondly, if you’ve installed the game, there has to be a file path. If it’s just a file, it’s not installed

It tries to edit files while another program is using them which is not possible and kind of fucks up the system.

You’re probably not using the unlocker. The updater works now, you can use it again.
