I was born (1992), raised and still live in Poland. Hence the accent.
I play all Sims games (on PC). Although, The Sims 4 I can only play in Polish due to language restrictions, that's why you won't see it much on this channel. - Hry
Sorry if I confused which EP some features come from :E Hope I didn't! I mostly rely on SimsWiki since I'd never had the full game until the Ultimate Collection, so all expansions blend into one in my head.
No apology needed! 💖 Love your videos!
Fun Fact: The unused texture for the pizza was recolored and used for the pizza in The Sims 3. It's the exact same texture, just slightly greener.
Cool!
moldy pizza
I was completely unprepared for you to just shout "So finally your sims can want to become a cult leader..."
😂😅
Simler90 is truly the God of Sims 2 Fixes, right after Cyjon. Simler has e.g. a mod so that two sims can use a regular staircase at the same time! Amazing, isn't it? XD No more Elagandas
"squash! comma? Lenny!!!" - some elder sim
"Simler90 is truly the God of Sims 2 Fixes, right after Cyjon"
I feel Pescado deserves a mention as well.
@@pancakes1271 You are right, but I also feel like Simler90 is a bit overlooked in comparison to these two, since Pescado and Cyjon both have their own websites, and afaik Simler only posts to modthesims
hahahahaha
i had to laugh sooooo hard at the unexpected "Elaganda"
first i was like "No more .. what?" and then like aahahahahaha
simler90 is also the creator of Romantic Standards, a mod that completely changed the way I handled romance in the game. I love it, the only negative I can say is that simler90 has the habit of joining several different fixes and gameplay changes within the same mod when they should be different mods so you could pick and choose what you like.
The exercise bike is the pool ladder of Sims 2. I never noticed a problem with it until I played an asylum challenge and everyone dropped dead within a couple of days ☠️
Same!!!
1:56 this is me irl when I get a bit too obsessed with playing the Sims 2
Very interesting video, thank you! :D
XDD SO TRUE
The virus/medicine maker, a career reward, is also broken and does not work. I have this problem and someone told me there's a mod for that. Gotta love The Sims 2 community!
Oh yeah, it is broken!
I think that university lifetime wants are not in a game for a reason. Like, if an adult got one of that wants, it would be impossible to fulfill it (without mods or something).
Well, true! But it's good to have them.
@@Marticore Yeah, I agree
You can always cycle the LTWs if you don't want them, although that requires the SimsModder that can be spawned via TCE or something like that...
There's a glitch in Open for Business where you can earn infinite money with the wholesale rewards; Enable wholesale mode, buy an item, then immediately sell it again. You buy it at a discount, sell it full price and pocket the difference. Rinse and repeat. You don't even have to leave buy mode. Easy to avoid, but don't know if anyone else ever noticed.
It's like The Sims 1 all over again.
Argh, they also broke so many features with the last few patches around Into the Future with Sims 3! For instance when you install ItF the rate of receiving opportunities severly drops. Toddlers no longer can talk to people after a certain patch regardless of the skill. Bonehilda used to be able to take care of babies, but that also got broken at some point. Some of the gigs in Ambitions really got buggy after around 2012. And there's a bunch more I could think of. It's a shame, really.
I wish there was a video like this, but about Sims 3...
I found a solution for the toddler bug!! "Overwatch (version 106) corrected that. From the revision notes page "The mod now injects the "Toddler Chat" interaction, lost with the Into The Future Patch." "
@@ranitafeliz2987 Overwatch really is The lifesaver.
It honestly felt like ITF was The first red flag to what Sims 4 will be, when I look back. The gameplay is fun, but doesn't really fit into casual gameplay well, it is very goal-oriented, sometimes feels like a checklist (not As much As sims 4) and the cas is very niche (what will happen with Sims 4, I feel like mainly st the start, all sims were fashion icons, it was giving Disney movie fashion or ,,I have a stylist").
Fortunately, in the context of the pack, it worked decently. Unfortunately, in the context of Sims 4, it was underwhelming. I am still praying for Sims 5 to be a Sims 2, 3 combined with Sims 4 graphics, but add colorwheel.
Well...now I know why I can never talk to my toddlers and why gigs are so weird.
IRIS BURNING WHILE YOU WERE SPEAKING ABOUT FIRE SAFETY MADE ME LAUGH SO LOUDLY
Simler 90 and lazy Duchess are incredible!
Don't forget Cyjon, TwoJeffs, Pescado and Nopke!
I was just searching my comment to add nopke! cyjon, pescado and two jeffs are part of the game development to me because they made this game, without them this game would be soooo broken that I don't even consider that they are modders (crying in NoUnlikOnDeath language).
EA with their first patch: There, fixed it!
EA with their second patch: ...nevermind.
I'll just leave a note that bed ownership mods (like smart beds, or other mods like this) conflict with cc bunk beds, which will make sims randomly reset if any bunk bed is placed on the lot.
Oh, I wondered why bunk beds caused problems in my game, that's why! Thanks
What about cc beddings? I mean if it’s a bed from Maxis but the bedding is cc?
@@paulinatkr5757 that doesn't matter, its just the bunk beds that aren't very compatible with this mod
@@Anhaeyn ok thank you 😊
OH MY GOD i always wondered why bunk beds are causing this to happen and I eventually deleted them from my game thinking they're broken/not updated to the newest expansion
I was so confused when my sim who learned physiology maxed out body skill in a minute lol
Didn't know about smart milk, explains why my toddlers were all little Einsteins lol. I stopped giving them skill building toys because of that.
Really nice mods, I'm definitely gonna download them
I thought I had a mod conflict when it happened to two of my sims, i'm glad there's a fix.
2 videos today, queen’s feeding us well
We are spoiled
Omg, i'm finally the 69th like.
this is completely out of place, but I want to share the joy that I did not expect to see at all
Nina Caliente gave birth to not just twins in my game, but both of them have green skin! This is awesome because she is not married to an alien!
Im just so glad
Perfectly normal in the clean version of Pleasantview. Both Calientes have recessive alien skin due to having alien ancestors :)
@@Marticore heh? That makes the bella's disappearance mystery even more interesting
The monster joy despret made an appearance
How very dare she
the most annoying part for me was trying to put that shadow link on the wiki of sims 2, cause some idiot person was saying we could fix the issue changing the shadow to medium, i never hated someone so much on my life that don't know the difference of a workaround and a true fix........... disabling the shadows was never a fix.. never..... glad i could put that info on the wiki today but if i knew the person that was editing it out and saying to disable the shadows to medium i would swear alot... this was years ago.
Well this explains a lot. I saw the switching to medium advice, did that and nothing really changed. I was confused, thinking I did something wrong (not sure what, because changing shadows is easy), because it must have worked for others... Now I know. You were right to be upset, it prevents people from being able to fix the issue quickly, without searching all over the place for solution.
I know of two events that are broken and they are very good, I hope that a mod will solve them, the first one when a teenager sneak out and the police catch him, in the base game the police give a reprimand to parents but at UC it does not happen the policeman just leaves. The second is also the same event when a teenager is discovered sneak out by his parents, they will give him a reprimand and tell him to go to bed, the only thing to do is enter the house, otherwise the father will slap the teenager, well even though the slap appears in the action queue, the parent does nothing
I remember something similar happened to me but with parties. My sim had a party that was still going after 11 pm, police arrived and then just left. I never had police stop the party before but I'm sure this isn't how it's supposed to go.
I started playing the sims 2 ultimate collection again recently, and didn’t know about the smart milk bug! Was wondering why all my children learn lightning fast, didn’t remember that from when I was playing in 2005😅
About fire safety, if you have the phone next to you, they actually will call the fireman... It works like that. I saw a lot of times my sims doing that.
I honestly love the physiology thing, if I want my sim to gain a full skill really fast i'll just make them read the book and then jump rope or something. Good for a mood boost or achieving a want.
I actually like the smart milk error because it can fix itself anytime before a toddler grows into a child, at least with the setup that I have right now (idk if anything else interferes), so some of my child sims end up smarter than others, which I like.
The bed ownership mod will save me from so many annoyances! Yay
I encountered a few of these issues last time I played a round in my custom hood, I was about to start a new round and this video gets posted, perfect timing!
Oh Marti my beloved, you saved me. I always wanted to get the extra lifetime wants but just couldn't find the right mod! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ♥
Not sure if this counts, but the in game CAS is missing a bunch of sliders which are in the bodyshop CAS. Again can't tell if this is an intended feature or a bug or what but there is a mod which ports the bodyshop sliders to the actual game. For me its very useful with fixing large cheekbones when you mix/match certain eyes, noses and mouths.
body shop has always been more 'detailed' in terms of sliders than normal cas, pretty sure it was intended that way. if you want to make more detailed sims then you can make them in bodyshop, export their appearance to the sim bin (or something like that) then load up sims, go into case and select them from the bin. they might not look perfect like they did in the body shop, but they'll look relatively the same
Yeah, I have that mod + some extra sliders. I think I'll put that in the annoyances video :D I always felt like it was intended for Body Shop to provide more possibilities.
Thanks for this. Been meaning to finally get all the EPs so it's good to know how to make them work their best
Thanks for the tips. It will help to Polish up the game
I'll see myself out
I didn’t know about A LOT of these, so thank you for this video. I’m off to download these mods right now 👍🏽
god the sims 2 is so interetsing, unfortunately the game isnt available anymore...so content about it is appreciated
you can download it on oldgames
don't be afraid to use piracy if the game is not sold anymore its you consumer RIGHT to preserve the game and get it, piracy is only bad if the dev stil sell the game.
@@gabrielandy9272 funnily enough its not the doing something that is technically illegal part that worries me...its the chance that...while oldgames hosts the version on the internet archive...which i just learned has a legal exception due to their archiving...its the possibility that SOMETHING slips through the cracks and i get a virus
@@magicamadeye hey there! I just downloaded the sims 2 through this tutorial. czcams.com/video/2fVf0aqcDUM/video.html rest assured that the download sites are virus free!
Oh noo, got spoiled on a few things from the Riverblossom Hills series by watching this! Ah well, that's on me.
I've wondered about just how many instances of this are in TS2, it's amazing how such a good game has so many loose strings of code.
You posted this on a day I’m CC and mod shopping LOL and there were a few I didn’t have yet! Can’t wait for the next one!
Omg you can fix these??? I've never seen most of these in my game but I've got a couple. The physiology and marriage are defenitly some. Thankfuly my fire skill always worked. I've not noticed if I've got the career thing bug I should check it out!
Such useful video especially with links in the description 👏❤
Ah. The smart milk makes sense. I only just started using it (I used to just cheat toddlers needs) and I was wondering why Dina and Mortimer's kids had so many skill points.
"...that you probably know about because you're definitely simmers of culture. I deeply believe that" - Ha! I've probably played the Sims 2 at some point in my life? As a kid maybe? But I wouldn't bet money on it. Same for Sims 1. I've bought Sims 3 on sale and have been playing it recently, but that's because of some of the Sims content I watch on youtube, not the other way around. (Sims 4 I've played casually, but not often... and THAT, CZcams couldn't even try to make me to spend money on haha.) All that to say, I'm on your channel because your videos are super interesting! I learn a lot :P
Thanks very much for this, i tried to find some of those many years
This was actually really interesting!
wow, I thought it was a glitch when my child sim maxed fitness skill in a few moments. Then it happens with another sim in the family. I had no idea why, now I do. Thank you!
The pizza! :o And I did always wonder why I'd heard there was pneumonia in the game but never actually witnessed it, and my sims were just getting sick and dying without showing any illness progression. It's just one of those 'eh, I'll live with it' things. Unlike the physiology glitch. Which is super annoying if I want a more realistic skill-building level/difficulty for some sims.
Please continue with these types of videos!
I don't know why, but I always hear your "byeeee" as "buuuy". I don't know why. I also watch your Polish channel and your "paaaa" also sounds quite unique to me. I'm no native English speaker so it's probably just my thing lol. I'm trying to start playing the sims 2 so your videos are really useful. Thanks a lot.
Super informative video, thank you!
this is wonderful, thank you!
I see Joy Despret and we need to imprison her IMMEDIATELY.
If sims in the ultimate collection don’t remember which bed is theirs, is the thing where ghosts remember if you delete their bed a thing in the ultimate collection? I play the mac version and my ghosts always get happy if I still have the bed they used to sleep on on the lot and upset if I don’t!
Yes, they still do that!
Please do more of these!
Yay! I can stop my sims from exercising themselves to death...
oh...the smart milk. thats why my toddler it's level 6 on logical. i tought i my sim just gave birth to a genius 😔 lol
There is a pneumonia fix on MTS by kestrellyn!
apparently the lifetime want mod isn't compatible with mansion & garden stuff/ultimate collection :(
???? I have the Ultimate Collection!
The community lot espresso machine that spawns an NPC has never worked for me in ultimate collection. If I tell a sim to buy themselves or someone else a coffee they just walk up and stand there and nothing happens and they walk away. Someone on reddit told me it was known to be bugged. Is there a fix for this? I miss having coffee shops :(
that's interesting. Mine work fine as long as other sims aren't in the way. could you have a conflict?
the University lifetime wants doesn't work with Ultimate Collection, is there an alternative?
I have the UC and it does work, there must be a mod conflict. But 50 more lifetime wants from Lamare also includes the university wants.
Update: I kept the disease mod in. However, a new problem has come to my attention. My game has been glitching and crashing more for the past few days. Previously, it rarely crashed, but now, it crashes pretty much every time I play. It may be due to the disease mod since that's the only mod I installed recently that isn't just a simple fix. What do you think? Should I remove it? Is there a definitive way to find out what's causing the increases glitching and crashing?
You can run HCDU and look if there are any mod conflicts!
@@Marticore What is HCDU?
@@Marticore Thanks! Apparently, my only conflict is 2 default replacement hairstyles replacing the same OG hairstyle. I'm still wondering if the disease mod is decreasing performance, though. It _does_ involve hourly background processes. Of course, those processes already take place in the unmodded game, but still...
I miss that baby bottle thing so BAD! I can't believe it isn't in Sims 3 or 4! I don't even play Sims 4 anymore. Sims 2 & 3 are so much betterrrrr
It's on my top 10 mods that doesn't exists yet for sims 3, I'm so happy that in the late months a good part of my all time wish mods for this game were made, and there is one that charges the diaper change and the bottles and there is another that makes you to buy from grocery store to be able to change it or feed the babies, but unfortunately no mod to make all the trash. It's strange that I want my sims to produce trash??
@@fernandaa7334 OMG I had no idea that someone modded that! What a good idea! 💡 I actually don't play with mods, but I saw this AMAZING video on how to make the Sims 3 game work better, and there was a few mods suggested to help the gameplay, so I'm thinking about getting them!! I'm so jealous of some of the mods I see 🙈😂😂 it makes the Sims 4 look so much more fun!!!!
I noticed that in Open for Business, when i give them a uniform the same face without eyebrows appears with all of them
Yes, there's a fix for that too! Business Outfit Fix. I mentioned that in the spooky stuff video :)
@@Marticore omg i just noticed
Now that’s what I needed
Sometimes beds or toilets will be "stuck" : you can't make the bed, or use one or both sides, same for the toilet. You also can't delete them, because the game thinks someone is using them. Does anyone know how to fix that?
I'm looking for a mod that generates more diversity regarding wants... Sometimes they roll the same wants that just have been fulfilled (entertain, talk to...) and that's kind of annoying... Do you know if that exists ?
I only have this one: www.mediafire.com/file/j265rmad01enut2/Want_Mods.7z/file
Found it on Pleasant Sims' mods list, her description says: "Fixes a bunch of the awful wants by removing or reducing their occurrence. Includes buy gadgets, buy instruments, sports party, resurrection, etc."
how to put the code/mods? on download folder? or certain folder? because I'm scared if the game got corrupted
Mods go into the Downloads folder. Codes are typed in game via Shift+Ctrl+C.
I personally feel like the fact that you need a degree to be an artist, an actor or a psychic phone pal BUT not to be a lawyer or a doctor or a scientist is perhaps the most broken thing
It's only because those careers are in the base game or other packs, it would be hard to merge them with University for this one mechanic of them requiring a degree. That's what the Edukashun Iz Gud mod is for 😆
@@Marticore yes, I've recently downloaded Doctors Need Degrees (an extension of Edukashun)
04:50 I had the thing with a sim with an alien skin as well.
Szkoda, że nie ma opcji włączenie napisów i autotłumaczenia, zawsze jakaś pomoc.
3:34 game, where You gain a radioactive child XD
I have that weird thing, where when I call a Sim to smutsle with me, while they do come over, they stop dancing after literally clap their hands once and then just stop and leave.
I dunno if it has to do with their fun need being full or just a plain bug...
ah the smustle
i threw a birthday party and had 15 sims smustling in the kitchen while the stereo was upstairs and on the other side of the house...
@@countrye3013 Damn, the Sims near the radio must've gone deaf then, huh?
Thanks for the good info haha
Beau broke died on the exercise bike, immediately got the mod after that
I spent an ungodly amount of time teaching my characters how to act reasonably on the FreeTime gameversion, and now I am stuck with it because none of my mods work in Mansion because of fundamental changes like expansion flags, greet status, and special handling of apartment zone. There are a lot of sports, fitness and music objects in FreeTime that people will exit too quickly as a Fun Object, and can't practically use them to skill up if one of their other motives is half-full.
Or how about eating in Downtown. People are attracted to the restaurant podium by the Shopping motive and will keep eating repeatedly until the whole neighborhood is fat. Or keep drinking espresso over and over again, which only serves to make the working person money. Or walk very far upstairs to put down an espresso cup or plate. Or how the Iconic Hobbyist calls in the middle of the night, or goes through locked doors to deliver the membership card.
The authors seem to enjoy creating mayhem, and to make newly added features obnoxiously obvious.
The smart milk works well, and saves time going to the fridge and cleaning up the bottle. Yeah, I had my teens learning skill super fast. I had to justify it in the story.
please make a video for the Mysterious choking death from the sims 2 base game.
The one about pregnancy modifier token mentions it!
Is there a mod to fix when children/teens receive good grades but there's an error because they don't have their parent living on the lot to cheer with? I used to get this a lot because I had the grandparents move out with the kids. It resolved when I invited the dad over for when the kids arrived home from school. But a fix would be nice...
First time I hear about this :O If the parent isn't on the lot, the kid will just wave the report card in the air and cheer by themselves!
@@Marticore That's not what happened to my child. I was playing and after a while I realized that this kid NEVER brought any homework with him, but the other child did (who had a mother living on the lot). I put in testingcheats and start receiving an error message when he walked off the bus. From my lackluster programming skills I could tell a a sim was missing for the target of the interaction.
After some trial and error I invited the Dad over, the action played out as it should, and voilà homework appeared.
I don’t know if this is a glitch, but I thought I’d ask anyway! Is there a way to randomise who kids and teens can bring home from school more? In my game the same few sims are always brought home and it annoys me somewhat, especially for matchmaking purposes
Haven't heard of that unfortunately, but a fantastic way for kids to meet other kids is to go on computer chat! They can only chat with their peers there, no teens or adults :D
this is a common issue in the sims 2, due to the RNG always being the same, its the same reason the neighrborhoods in apartments tend to always be the same ones no mattter how much time you retry the lot even tho theres lot of sims for the game to choose from.
Me knowing most of these from Pleasant Sims' mod page but watching this anyway because I like the content
Edit: THE PIZZA ONE IS DEFINITELY NEW LOL
Disappointing, the mod to add the Uni LTWs isn't compatible with Mansion and Garden Stuff. Is there one that is compatible with that stuff pack?
It works fine with M&G
@@MarticoreThanks for letting me know! I appreciate that you took the time on a 2 year old video!
I see comments chronologically, it doesn't matter where you post it :) (unless it's a reply to another comment)
Next video: the entire sims 2 code
Why the social worker and the driver have incomplete data? There is a explanation for this?
I think since they are usually not able to be added to the household, the devs maybe just didn't bother completing their data.
Ts2 having the same issues as ts4 with devs forgeting stuff or gamevsysthems beeing good but most people get annoyd by them.
Do you have the fix for mannequin skin? I remember a mod that links the baby texture for it so the game doesn't crash when you have a baby with a sim using that skintone.
Yes, I do, it's on ModTheSims
@@Marticore Rip to my first edgy goth family I deleted because I didn't know about the fix at the time.
Anyone if there is a lifetime mod compatible with the ultimate collection???
What do you mean by lifetime mod?
4:32 omg i thought i had a discord notif lmaooo
Dustin and beau died of a cold in my game both in the same night. I have realistic sickness so I thought that was why. I didnt realize it was a bug ☹
Yep, Real Sickness doesn't fix that glitch :c
@@Marticore dang. Knowing they died cuz of a glitch kind of makes me want to start my pleasantview over 🙃
8:51 Is that Joy Despret?
Technically Steffi Ng, but yes
@@Marticore How very dare you!
She's a downtownie 🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻
Hello Marticore! ❤️❤️❤️
Simmers of culture
And disgusting monster Joy Despret has arrived!
the fire mod!! i had it and my sims would reset every time they would run to extinguish the fire!!!
Mod conflict or you need Smarter EP Check
oh damn... just watched this now and realized that yesterday i doomed a child townie sim to never have an aspiration :'')
If you ever get to move that townie in, you can give them an aspiration using testingcheats or a mod like Sim Blender
Ok, I'm a fool. I didn't check to see if someone had mad a fix for the indoor shadow glitch. It doesn't bother me at all, but I think I'll get that fix!
Really? Damn, I've had this mod since 2014 :O
@@Marticore yeah, I've also been playing with the wrong resolution... I've just been too lazy to fix stuff before now.
I'm back on the English channel!
But I still prefer the Polish channel.
PIZZA SIĘ ZEPSUŁA! O NIE!
isnt there multiple social workers in most neighborhoods though
Yes, but you still shouldn't interact with them outside their purpose cause they can corrupt your game.
Yes, social workers have incomplete data. Bus and carpool drivers too, and there are plenty in one neighborhood as well.
All of them have incomplete character files
I didn't know about the pizza)))
Twoj glos brzmi jak glos starej kumpeli XD tak dlugo Cie ogladam, nawet po angiesku DDSFSDFSDF
8:20 whaaaat
epcheck a ja myślałam że to takie zdrobnienie "ipiczek" xD
girly, all the walls in my game are red, i did not come here for you to tell me about bikes that make you starve, please, how to i fix my walls being red, i cant see the wallpaper (well actually its flashing red and black but ykno)
Graphics Rules Maker!!!
How did EA not realize these broken codes?
Guess we'll never know 😆
my sims never have a cold! it always jumps right to the flu
Cold and flu are two separate illnesses, so there's no jumping between them!
1:47 I’ve been on my exercise bike for over an hour. I feel called out.
Update: My dad made me get off because he was worried that I would hurt myself. 😔
Oh no! An hour doesn't sound that bad, you could easily ride a regular bike that long! And you didn't die of hunger!
@@Marticore True. When my mom came home, she scolded my dad for being overbearing and told him about how she used to bike for 10+ miles on class trips.
