Hello! I downloaded this and it is working perfectly except for the fact that when I enter Create a Sim I cannot see the sims, they are just black figures. Did anyone else have an issue with Create-A-Sim? If so, how did you guys solve it? I already tried changing the shadows to low and medium but that didn’t work.
using ‘boolProp useshaders true’ worked for me. just open the cheat command type that after using ‘testingcheatsenabled true’. do this before you open create a sim. in my experience, you’ll have to do this every time you create a new family in a neighborhood
Can anyone tell me how to mod this? My game works perfectly but I can’t figure out how to add mods because this file doesn’t have files for the seperate expansion packs
Dump your mod files into:
Documents>EA Games>The Sims 2>Downloads
Mods aren’t working I’ve enabled them but they still aren’t working
It might be the specific mods you downloaded make sure none of them need meshes
can someone tell me what the installing code is? i cant find it anywhere
Is there any way to change the language?
Trying to change the res as per the resolution fix document. I don’t have a “mansion and garden stuff” folder. Any advice?
go to windows ssd program files mr dj then sims 2 and youllf ind it
Could you explain this again please? What are ssd program files?
Windows (C:) – Program (x86) – Mr DJ -> The Sims 2 Ultimate Colletion
there is where the game seems to be if you wanna try changing the res!
is there a way I can have both the sims 2 and 4 on my pc? The game (the sims 2) starts, but it freeze during after the intro. I thinks that’s because i have another Eletronics Arts folder for the sims 4
you should be able to have both. i know Sims 2 generates a separate folder called “EA Games” instead of being associated with the “Electronic Arts” folders. im not sure what the problem is but i think it’s with this Sims 2 only, nothing to do with the Sims 4
Does anyone know if I can install cc with this? All of the tutorials I’ve watched files look different then these and I can’t figure out where to put the downloads folder.
Yes u can. I download my cc at TheSimsRessource. U must create the download folder in Documents > EA Games > The Sims 2 😀
hello , I have the game with the mods , you have to create a file named ” downloads” and then you have to enabled the cc in your game 🙂 if you have any questions let me know
I’ve created the downloads folder and have mods in it, but i can’t figure out where to put the downloads folder. When i put it in the the main “The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection” folder none of my cc shows up and i have enabled cc in the game. Thanks for any help. (Nevermind, i figured it out)
Where do you put the downloads folder?
How do you enable CC in game?
Where do you put the downloads folder specifically? And then how do you enable cc in your game?
is this for mac too? or just windows? ;-;
I believe it’s just for Windows.
So everything works like a charm, the game runs wonderfully, however the shadows are giant rectangles. I tried the installation note, changing shadows from high to both medium, and then off, and neither changes anything – all indoor shadows are still big black squares. Does anyone have any tips?
hi! quick question since you said your game runs, what did you do when it asked you to enter disk 1 and 2?
It actually never asked me to enter disk 1 and 2. I used WinRAR to extract the .rar download to my desktop and followed the steps under the “How to Play on Windows” exactly, and for me it just worked. I used this link to get more tips and that was really easy to follow: https://oldgamesdownload.org/wiki/install-games-on-windows/.
And there are instructions if you follow that link too on how to mount ISO files to your disc drive, which would be what you do if it asks for you for a disc, so I was planning to have to do that, but I never ended up needing to.
thanks for the reply, i shall try to use those tips from there! 🙂
No problem! If you happen upon a fix for the shadows, let me know, lol :).

i have found these more recent comments hope it helps
Unfortunately, it always says “Fatal Error” or something similar then crashes after a few minutes, or even won’t charge at all, freezing in the loading screen…I’m very sad, I was looking forwards to play this game again…
The installer is asking for a disc?

trying to follow the resolution fix but i dont see the “TSData” or “Fun With Pets” folders listed on https://simscommunity.info/2016/04/27/the-sims-2-setting-up-the-resolution-windowed-mode-smooth-edges-sim-shadows/?msclkid=0194bff6c44811ecb72e3976f818a46c and cant find any other options. Does anyone know how to fix?
Mine does not install as a zipped folder. Like it installs as just a regular file (icon is a white piece of paper).
Same issue!
have you been able to fix this, if so, please could you reply how bc i am struggling lmao
It’s because it’s a .rar file to extract it you need a special software such as 7zip or Winrar
Hello, for some reason i cannot unpack the zip – it just crashed at 66% from setup1
Is there any way to change the resolution.. the characters look stretched out
