Fixed the little issue brought up by BoilingOil and uploaded the updated Sunair Light Computer.

Thank you for bringing this up. I didn't notice the problem because I haven't used that particular computer in a long time.

If you find anything else wrong with these computers, let me know.

Hello, this is a special notice to players using Monique's computers from either this section or from MTS. I realize this came at a time when people could have used information regarding the error that's generated from when the player has Monique's computer mod installed. But it is better to find out now than to Google to scour every thread on how to fix the problem with this particular mod right?

So, without further ado..

If your Sim throws an error, and you open that log to see these errors in bold:

Object id: 141

This problem is related to one of the files that came with Monique's computer mod (doesn't matter if you got it here or from MTS): MQ_Computer_Global_Sims_Controller

The best solution to resolve?

Just remove MQ_Computer_Global_Sims_Controller from the folder you put the MQ computer mod in.


AncientHighway, me, BoilingOil and a few others tried to resolve the problem with this particular file because of how it's constructed. I couldn't find anything logically wrong in the file so I didn't know what else to do with it until last week when I came across a thread on a site I normally don't visit. There was a discussion on this particular file affecting Sims' pie menus and the custom neighborhoods. I didn't have this problem when I played pre-made neighborhoods such as Veronaville, Strangetown, etc back when I first started playing Sims 2.

Have fun playing Sims 2!  

Have you used HCDU (from Simwardrobe's site) to check for conflicts?

It is so hard to find older mods these days for Sims 2. The earliest version I could find is EP3 version found here:

http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,7238.0.html

This is Squinge's Pregnant Wear Any Outfit mod. EP3, according to what I looked up online, is Open For Business.

I'm curious about something. Did you buy Sims 2 bundled packs that includes the base and at least 1 or 2 expansion packs that they sell these days?

I'll do my best to answer each numbered item below:

1. This is a memory that, according to Squinge a few years ago at our old site, that's buried so deep inside the game code that it was not worth the trouble locating to alter it so that your teens won't get negative "Never Went To College" memories and mood hits. You can use SimPE to remove these memories from your newly aged adults.

2. I don't think the skills matter.

3. I got those messages too. It's part of the college system that you will have to get used to for now. Just X out the notifications when you get them.

The teens will lose their teen jobs upon becoming Young Adults. If you want them to have teen jobs, you need a mod to enable them to obtain the jobs and go to work. By design, YAs have enough on their plates to worry about jobs and bills. As long they get good grades, their scholarships will be enough to cover their tuition fees and whatever else they need.

4. This shouldn't happen. My YAs stayed home in their main hoods just fine. Did you play on a private home in the Uni hood or main hood?

5. Sounds like she's messed up somehow. Delete her and reload the lot (be careful doing this. Make sure there is another Sim on the lot in case).

When I'm not playing Sims 2 AND Sims 3, I play WoW. When I'm not playing WoW, I'm playing EQ 2. When I'm not playing EQ2, I am playing Achaea (Iron Realms Entertainment text-based online game). When I'm not playing Achaea, I'm playing Aetolia (IRE) leveling my Vampire. When I'm not doing that, I'm on Sims Social at Facebook.

This should tell you how much attention I have these days. 

What is Skyrim? Is it any good? *looks about curiously* Don't shoot my knees out because I don't know what that game is about.

One word: SPAAAAAAAMMMM!!

FEAR the evil brick of processed meats!! For the day will come when the SPAM arrive in armies to terrify the good citizens of Insimenator.org!

You know what that means?! It means JENNA let the SPAM armies out of her basement just for lulz!! Go forth with flamethrowers and destroy SPAM armies while there's time!

Begone, evil SPAM!!

In other words:

We had very little snow this year. Guess what I do? Yes, that's right. I work outdoors year-round. Meaning that I get to deal with that white stuff on top of ice and water.

As of January 13th, 2012:

CrazyTown shut down. The site used to be one of the main Sims 2 sites hosting a lot of content ranging from mods to lots as well discussions on generally anything. When Sims 3 came out, CrazyTown welcomed new members into its fold by hosting new Sims 3 content. The owner made her decision to retire fully from the Sims 2 community and move on to other things in her life.

A special shoutout to The ISZ and Sleepycat for hosting CrazyTown for many years up until this month! Thank you both for bringing the community together to enjoy Sims 2 and then Sims 3.

BUT, a new site opened! It is very very identical to CrazyTown! In fact, many of the members from CT moved to the new home and settled there with their own sections. You must register in order to view the boards at the new site.

New Sites:


Twallan's NRAAS Wiki

Twallan, one of the well known creators of Sims 3 content, decided to set up his own wiki to host his own mods after The ISZ announced her decision in December 2011 to close CrazyTown. His site shared the same server with CT.

I do not believe you need to register in order to download his mods, but I do believe you need to register in order to post comments there and/or follow his wiki as your personal feed.

The mods there are for Sims 3 only.

Simbology - Mods For The Sims 2

While the site retained its original title and look, a new staff has taken over to keep the site open for the Sims 2 community. D_A, Boiling Oil, Zephyrzodiac, Zirconia Wolf and Miros1 stepped in for Twojeffs to keep the site open so people may discover the good Sims 2 content TJ made and hosted. ACR and Inteen are still hosted on the site, BUT ACR is now unsupported with no further updates. Inteen is now hosted "as is" with no further updates.

However, the staff will assist with questions pertaining to any of TJ's mods including ACR and Jase's Inteen. Ask these questions THERE. Not here.

TJ made his official announcement in December, 2011 that he retired from the Sims 2 community with no further intention to update or create any more new mods for Sims 2.

A special shoutout to Twojeffs for hosting his mods for Sims 2. Thank you, TJ, for ACR! My Sims haven't been the same since then! Thank you, Madcat256 and Jase, for keeping Inteen updated to Apartment Life! My teen Sims haven't been the same since then!

There is very little Sims 3 content on the site.

The site hosts both Sims 2 and Sims 3 content with a few off-topic boards.

XPTL, Dizzy and Various Sims 2 content


Sims 2 Adult Sites:

B.A.S (Back Alley Sims) - Adult Rated Site

You must be 18+ in order to join the adult-only site for Sims 2 and Sims 3. Chris Hatcher has made major changes to Sims 2 with a couple of mini packs allowing Sims to have hospitals to go to for childbirth, sickness and whatnot AND allowing Sims to have religious beliefs. Several adult mods are available there with constant updates as well discussions pertaining to Sims 2. There is Sims 3 content as well. The staff also has a family-friendly site for both Sims 2 and Sims 3.

Special Note:

Will update with new links to either Sims 2 or Sims 3 sites when I come across more out there.

He does not do mods for Sims 3. Check out other Sims 3 sites via Google and see what you can find.

I don't believe these mods will work with FT, AL or Mansion&Garden because of the additional code to take energy saving objects into consideration and some other things.

If you are looking for a newer mod for FT and higher, you can try out Cyjon's Bigger Bills mod. I use that mod myself with Mansion&Garden because I wanted expensive bills nearly everyday. There are other bills-related mods out there too:

Bills-related mods at MTS2
AH's Higher Bills and Tuition mod
AH's version of SimModder's Higher Bills mod

I am sure there are more out there that will fit your playstyle.

You forgot to post the start and end times for each level of this interesting career.

Get Out of Crib by Inge does that. I have it installed so the toddler can climb out and then go eat, potty and then play without following the parent around annoying them.

If you get a floor mounted mirror and have a pet (cat or dog), the pet -will- play with the mirror. Came across that by accident one day and enjoyed watching the dog play with the mirror for a little bit. It was cute.

Happy very very late birthday! I didn't even see this one until now.

Excellent

Ambular from MATY converted the Sims 2 plumbobs into Sims 3 plumbobs successfully, but how it was done, I wasn't sure. So I think it is possible to recolor the plumbobs.

You could look around for information on how to recolor the plumbobs on Google.
