Recently reinstalled Sims 2 and any time I get two Sims together they evenentually start fighting, need Hack or something to stop the fighting.

One of my Sims in the Sims Bin is pink and obviously NG, how can I delete it.  Sims was not that of the household name but don't remember who it was.

I have several subhood of Pleasantview in Sims2, disc version all packs except Pets includingTA but some of the subhoods of Pleasant view are corrupt and I want to either clean or delete them but don't know how.

HobbesED, how often do you make a Back UP ?  Presume your file is quite large, mine is 31 gigs not counting the EPs.  Downloads and Hoods is about 22, presume that would cover most problems.   

Have recently found that many of my door stay open after a Sim enters.  Usually close after they leave but not always.  Is there any way to close a door that is left open

From a long time member but absent for many years.  Was with Back Alley and more recently Mod the Sims 2.  Looking for a place to lite !!!

Do you have a sink and/or a dishwasher ?

Have a couple of Sims that separated some time ago but how do I go about getting a divorce.  Tried calling and that didn't work, invited over but no opportunity there either.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks Chris, that was it.  Got it back to 1776 x 1000.   Was annoying to have to change it each time I started up.

Have changed the graphic rules.sgr file (or whatever it was you suggested) by copying the high resolution settings over both the Low and Medium settings in The Sims 2, TS Data, Graphic Rules.sgr and also in Mansion and Gardens and in T & A and it still starts at 800 x 600.   Also, checked each of those to make sure 'forceLowResolution' was set to false.  Don't know where else to look.

Thanks Zoltan but still have a problem.  Did as you suggested and it starts at 1028 x 768 but still have to change it to 1680 x 1050 or 1776 x 1000 every time I start over.  I also made sure the forceLowResolution is set to false on the 1st incidence but true on the rest.  Is there anywhere other than Graphics Rules.sgr where this could be changed or any other place within Graphic Rules.sgr ?  As I said, open the game and go to graphics, change to 1680 x 1050 and then accept the changes but next time I play the game have to do it all over again.

I know this has been asked many times but can't find it now.  All of a sudden my game comes up as 800 x 600 resolution which is pretty small on a 27 inch monitor.  I have gone to the graphics in game and set it at the highest setting and it works fine but the next time I load the game it is back to 800 x 600.  Have gone into T&A TS Data, Res, Config and set the first instance of ' forceLowResolution' to false but it doesn't help.  What else should I look for ?

ETA: More info.  The thing I did that caused the change was to start Sims 2 from SimPE.  It started from Mansions and Gardens but I have checked the Low Resolution there too and it is set to false.

That didn't really solve it.ended up moving the family out of the house and replacing it with an identical house....well almost identical and it is working OK.   This is all on another computer, my main computer is still messed up, unable to find Downloads and other folders.

My Downloads, Neighborhoods and other folders are in C:\Users\Fred\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims2    .  They had been moved to C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\EA Games\The Sims2 , now they are in both locations but the main program can't find it.   I think that somehow I inadvertently moved the file, but don't know how.  Is there something in the registry or elsewhere that points to where these folders are

Now the game is messed up also.   Every time I try to play I get a screen with no HOODS, wanting me to create my first hood.  Have about 20 or more hoods in my Downloads folder but apparently it is not looking there.  All expansion packs are at C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\

Where can you find in the EA Games folder where it is going to find the Downloads and other folders ?
