The Sims 2: Broken codes that can be fixed! 

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.

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.

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

1:56 this is me irl when I get a bit too obsessed with playing the Sims 2

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 ☠️

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).

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!

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.

IRIS BURNING WHILE YOU WERE SPEAKING ABOUT FIRE SAFETY MADE ME LAUGH SO LOUDLY

The monster joy despret made an appearance

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 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

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.

Simler 90 and lazy Duchess are incredible!

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.

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

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😅

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

2 videos today, queen’s feeding us well

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.

The bed ownership mod will save me from so many annoyances! Yay

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.

Thanks for the tips. It will help to Polish up the game I'll see myself out

Thanks for this. Been meaning to finally get all the EPs so it's good to know how to make them work their best

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!

I didn’t know about A LOT of these, so thank you for this video. I’m off to download these mods right now 👍🏽

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.

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 ♥

Such useful video especially with links in the description 👏❤

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.

This was actually really interesting!

Thanks very much for this, i tried to find some of those many years

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!

god the sims 2 is so interetsing, unfortunately the game isnt available anymore...so content about it is appreciated

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!

Please continue with these types of videos!

Super informative video, thank you!

this is wonderful, thank you!

Please do more of these!

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!

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.

I see Joy Despret and we need to imprison her IMMEDIATELY.

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.

"...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, RU-vid 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

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

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.

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!

There is a pneumonia fix on MTS by kestrellyn!

Yay! I can stop my sims from exercising themselves to death...

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

04:50 I had the thing with a sim with an alien skin as well.

Now that’s what I needed

Beau broke died on the exercise bike, immediately got the mod after that

3:34 game, where You gain a radioactive child XD

I noticed that in Open for Business, when i give them a uniform the same face without eyebrows appears with all of them

Ts2 having the same issues as ts4 with devs forgeting stuff or gamevsysthems beeing good but most people get annoyd by them.

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?

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.

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

Thanks for the good info haha

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...

apparently the lifetime want mod isn't compatible with mansion & garden stuff/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 :(

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 ☹

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

please make a video for the Mysterious choking death from the sims 2 base game.

Next video: the entire sims 2 code

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?

4:32 omg i thought i had a discord notif lmaooo

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...

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 ?

the University lifetime wants doesn't work with Ultimate Collection, is there an alternative?

the fire mod!! i had it and my sims would reset every time they would run to extinguish the fire!!!

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

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!

Simmers of culture

And disgusting monster Joy Despret has arrived!

how to put the code/mods? on download folder? or certain folder? because I'm scared if the game got corrupted

Hello Marticore! ❤️❤️❤️

I'm back on the English channel! But I still prefer the Polish channel.

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. 😔

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?

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.

epcheck a ja myślałam że to takie zdrobnienie "ipiczek" xD

I didn't know about the pizza)))

8:51 Is that Joy Despret?

Szkoda, że nie ma opcji włączenie napisów i autotłumaczenia, zawsze jakaś pomoc.

oh damn... just watched this now and realized that yesterday i doomed a child townie sim to never have an aspiration :'')

Anyone if there is a lifetime mod compatible with the ultimate collection???

How did EA not realize these broken codes?

my sims never have a cold! it always jumps right to the flu

Oczy aliena zawsze rodzi się dzieciak z normalną skórą, a oczy zepsute *-* mod uratował

aww broken voice at beginning xD

the bed thing is so annoying when u have 6 sims ;-;

PIZZA SIĘ ZEPSUŁA! O NIE!

Twoj glos brzmi jak glos starej kumpeli XD tak dlugo Cie ogladam, nawet po angiesku DDSFSDFSDF

Why the social worker and the driver have incomplete data? There is a explanation for this?
