This video satisfies my ADHD waaaay more than other guides. Thank you, this stuff is normally painful to try and concentrate on
I understand what u mean hahah I don’t have adhd but it can be really hard to sit through someone slowly going through a how-to where all you can hear is their voice and the whir of the pc fans lmao
God SAME, when I saw this was only 7 minutes I was so happy
I saw "Mr DJ" and I already knew😂
Yep! HAHHAHA
All the Chelsea's and Hannah's watching this video are like 👁👁👄👄👁👁
I'm not a tech person in the SLIGHTEST but I LOVE this game. Thank you for helping me solve the issues I was having and making it so simple
It's awesome that people made these mods so themselves and others can still play these games for years to come. While adding some QOL stuff like the resolution changes for modern sized screens it's a simple thing to forget adjust but when you do it's noticeable.
oh yeah! MTS2 has daily uploads of new mods and cc for the sims 2, even porting items from sims 3 and 4 into 2
@@WilliamMullaneythats amazing! Once I try this I’m totally checking them out!
This guy is saving lifes.
Mad props to you my man. As a Sims content creator, I appreciate this video, and you deserve more attention. Props to you!! Tytar approved!! (I've shared this video with a few other content creators as well)
Woah thank you!!
I'd gone through a dozen tutorials and stumbled across this video for me to realize i had set my GRM up for the body shop and that's why nothing was working.. Thank you.
First tutorial I found fun watching. Extremely well made and got my old Sims game working again! Many thanks!
Thank you SO MUCH for this, dude. I looked everywhere and this was the most thorough yet simple and easy to follow guide. 💖 I'm so happy to have TS2 in my life again.
This helped out big time! I got a new Alienware Aurora and was giving me a crashing issue. Appreciate the tutorial and was very step by step.
Thank you so much for this! I've really missed sims 2 and I'm so happy I can play it again!
OMG WILLIAM I LOVE YOU, its been a long time that my ts2 crashed, and your tutorial was easy to follow, thanks for the links too! I'm from Brazil and even english isn't my first language, IT WORKED
You, my friend, are a true superstar. Tried all kinds of things to get Sims 2 working all to no avail, including many different guides on CZcams and elsewhere. Yours worked first time, spot on. So a massive thank you from me. Liked, subbed, playing Sims 2.
Glad I could help!
this fix is working like a charm! this guide is detailed too.
looking forward to your next video!
Subbed!
Thanks man. I had problem with so many crashing, did everything you said and now game work smoothly as hell ❤❤
I usually don't leave comments on CZcams videos, but this tutorial has helped me so insanely much, thank you for being so straight-to-the-point, you're a lifesaver! Subscribed and liked.
Came here to say the same.
Thank you so much for this video and for helping me solve the issues I was having with my computer. Finally I can play one of my favorite childhood games again on my new computer! Easy and simple to follow you. Keep it up!
OMFG. I have been trying to fix my game for days 😭 I have watched every CZcams video and nothing helped,
I went to CZcams again and came across your video. Oh my GOD ITS FIXED. The stress is over finally😭
thank you you absolute GEM
You're a life saver. Recently got a new computer and needed this to work! Thanks a million! I shall name a sim after you, in your honour!
Wow, so well explained, I was able to follow your guide without even pausing the video. Very well done
Thankyou!
Thank you so so much!! I have been trying for months to get my sims 2 working again but all of this stuff is so confusing to me. I did this and it instantly worked so thank you!
Thanks! I've been trying for a few hours but couldn't get it to work until I found your video! :D
Useful and certainly fun to watch! Thank you very much and keep up the good work!
man youre great! You deserve more likes,views and subs. Just subbed and tbh no sleep since Im now being crazy checking for fixes without readin everything so KUDOS TO YOU MAN!!
Everything working right now! Thank you so much for the guide, i'll keep playing to see if I encounter something.
I gotta say you really helped me thank you ! ❤
Thanks for the help man, the video is very entertaining and helpful. Wishing nothing but success in the future.
thankyou!
Didn't work for me at the 4gb patch. The folder don't have seperate folder for the pack in my case. and I couln't select the tsbin at all... Maybe I am just dumb as it seems to be working fine for everyone else. Thanks for the video it still helped understand a few things.
hi! im not sure if it's the same problem but i ran into something similar to you, but i hope i can help (if you still have this issue) for some reason, my SP9 folder (garden & mansion pack) was in the "Fun With Pets" folder along with another pack as well. but if you go into that one, it should have the SP9 folder in there, and the TSBin one in that one !
you're amazing! the hannahs and chelseas thank you!
Awesome ! I just got my PC upgrades yesterday and i ended up with that problem. Your video saved me !
omg this worked for me, thanks soo much for the nice explanation (i have an addiction problem with sims 2 again because i dont get errors that stop me anymore)
thank you thats all I needed to know quick and snappy just how I like it! :)
Omggg, this helped me so much, love ur energy!❤️
you're so awesome! thank you! saving this so i can recommend it to friends 🤗
No problem! Happy to help if you run into further issues!
You absolutely saved my life with this! I don't really care for the later versions of Sims, but I love Sims 2. I've been suffering with crashes and pink flashes since I installed RTX 3070. Now it works like a charm! A thousand times, thank you!
Thank you so much for this! I got most of the game to work now I can (hopefully) play without crashes! 🎉❤
bro ur not a simple guy, ur a GOD, thx!
the u2 background and shirt are fantastic my guy.
Thx mate, that did the trick for me 🎉
Happy New Year from Austria 🎉

AND ... sorry, lack-of-executive-functioning-brain-aka-adhd-sometimes: thank you for the LITERAL step by step, including the click on link, close window, etc. Your video will help so many neurodivergent people. as someone below with ADHD also mentioned loooool
Thank you!! You're amazing!! My favorite game from my childhood!! Running on a i9-9900K, 32GB RAM and a 2080 Super. Worked perfectly! Thanks again!

dude thank u so much my game was so bad. im running on like a 2013 bootcamp mac to windows but i just did all of this and now my 20gb of cc loads in so quick
thank you very much! this really worked for me!
TYSM UR THE BEST THE OTHER TUTORIALS GOT NOTHING ON U TYTYT
Thank you so much !! 🫶🏻
Thanks so much! My sims 2 now runs perfectly and I can play again :D love your style of videos as well - I would love to see some more sims 2 content from you.
I’m not sure if you play much of the sims 3 but a lot of simmers are having issues with getting it to run on the EA app (for me it’s a constant loop opening the launcher and then the EA app) I’ve heard some people on forums taking about the ‘alder lake patch’ but I can’t find any clear instructions on how to install this… just thought I’d let you know :)
ohh yeah so alder lake i believe is 12th gen intel (could be wrong im drunk af rn lmao) so there could be an issue to do with that, Im not certain as i don’t play sims 3 but have been recommended it a lot! so i outta try it and see if i can find problems withit to fix hahaha
I tried using just the Graphics Rules Maker but the game kept crashing. Thank you for the 4GB and D3D9 fixes!
THANK YOU SOO MUCH OMGG!!
thanks alot working perfectly now.
Thank you soo much..I Finally able to play SIMS 2 in windows..thnx alot..you made my day
😀
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH 🎉
thank youuuu so muchh it helps meeee🥰
Thanks. Hope this works 🤞
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!
Thank you so much! I finally got to play Sims 2 without problems.
Btw, for those with this issue, if there's a black square under your sim just put shadow settings to medium and it's solved.
Glad to hear it worked!
The most Perfect guide..
you saved my life OMG
Yesssssssssssssss thank youuuuu!!
Thank you, you are a cool person 👍
love your video, ty
Thank you!!
Entertaining but helpful,i will try this later ,ty
Hope it helps! Let me know if theres still some issues and I will try to help the best I can
@@WilliamMullaney I tried installing graphic rules maker last month but it said,I don't have compatible direct x or drivers something so I need to reinstall it Lol, I also used Mr Dj 🫣
it worked , ty
It worked thank you so much
awesome! have fun simming
Finaly worked, the nostalgia is crazy on this one kkkk
Thank you!! 🤗
thx man for help
my gf appreciates it
Thank you so much!!!!
my game was working well until I created an university at my neighborhood, now all the screen is blinking
Heey! Your vibe is everything 😎
Thank you for this, it's really helpful. But what worked for me (at least at the beginning, let's see when I'm 4 hours straight playing the game) is using the d3d9.dll from x32 folder, the one inside the x64 didn't do anything... Everything about this game is a fucking mystery you know 😂
You gained a new sub! I hope to see more The Sims 2 videos whether it be on pc or ps2 or even psp 💕
Ah okay that's not what I expected hahah. I tried x32/86 first cause that's what architecture was used when sims 2 released but x32 didnt work while x64 did. Maybe it's to do with ur OS? Are you on Win10 or something else?
@@WilliamMullaney Yes, windows 10 home, and I have a very decent PC. This game is so picky that for every person it's different.
@@BrokenDoll. Welcome to 32 bit applications, Flight Simulation enthuasists know this all too well.
Flight Sim X has basically been broken.
by opening the config log (in the Logs folder) you can check that it's only the 32bit that works for ts2 as ts2 is a 32bit application @@WilliamMullaney
I might be speaking too soon since I only tested it once BUT I think you may have helped me, also this video
THANK U BRO
thank you soooo much
I really hope this works! I'm very angry because I spent hours building and my game crashed :(
TY!!
I am still getting "The Application has crashed. The application will now terminate." I followed everything you did, even keeping in mind that my PC is x64 bit and with an NVIDIA processor. Help?! Do I have to reinstall all my Sims 2 games? I also have an external CD-ROM. :(
I only have the crash with one neighborhood and none of the fixes have worked for me. It will load the neighborhood but crash when i try to select any household. Anything else I can try or is this neighborhood just doomed?
Hi, thanks for the helpful vid! I was able to get through everything except the very last link wasn’t downloading properly for me, is it okay to run the game like that?
Thank you From switzerland 🙏❤️
I’ve done all this but it’s still not working 😢 I downloaded sims 2 ultimate collection through the EA app and it does not come up with any of the packs
im still in the middle of attempting to get my game running but i liked and subscribed already purely because i wasnt expecting to be called out by name xD made me laugh lol - Hannah
Hahahahhah!
@@WilliamMullaney update: IT WORKED!! i could cry happy tears rn THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! i’ve been trying for days to get the game working and your tutorial was the only one to work, tysm again!!
@@stqrgirle0 That's great! have fun with it :D
i am gonna try this out later i was constantly getting frustrated before this video in it crashing and having purple
