Can you help, my sims all have black boxes under them even after I changed the shadows settings 🙁
open the console by hitting Ctrl+Shift+C and type “boolprop simshadows off” and they’ll go away. You’ll have to do it every time you open the game, I haven’t found any other way to get rid of them.

this worked!! if ur game randomly “terminates” then u might be low on storage, u can either delete the downloaded file(the game still works without) or you can download just the sims 2
How do you restart the hoods? I want to reset my pleasantview but I can’t figure out how
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but when I redownloaded it still had the same custom sims and played stories and I really want to start from scratch
Delete the “The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection” folder from the EA Games folder in your documents (it’ll have like Camera, Music, Neighborhoods, etc folders in it) and when you open the game again, it’ll generate a new folder with those stuff in it and you’ll have the fresh neighborhoods.
how do you use mods in this?
create a folder in the ea sims 2 documents “Downloads” this will work just like sims 4 Mods folders walllah
is anyone else having issues with none of the neighborhoods showing up? this is on first launch
Hey how to change language
My game has been on a black screen for 2 hours, is this an expected wait time for first time players?
i downloaded as the description said but when im instaling the sims 2 around 60% my computer just completly turns off
Whenever i try to open a Mansion and Garden Stuff pop up comes up that says “Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphic adapters in this sytem! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate” what do i do??
Im having the exact same problem :/
also having this problem really annoying 🙁
same
How to get rid of the rectangles tried the dev note but it didn’t work
Good question, let me know if you figure it out.
what if when changing the language, there is no EA Games in the Software folder
I have the same issue
I had the same issue aswell but found it then from here: regedit/hkey_local_machine/software/wow64332Node/Eagames
what if when changing the language, there is no EA Games in the Software folder?
it works like a charm although shadows are rectangles
Turn the shadows from high to low quality to fix that
change it from high to medium or low in graphic settings
it works fine but the shadows are rectangles I’ve tried to fix it with the dev note but its not working help please
I downloaded this as said but for some reason the Sims in Create a Sims will not come up except as dark shadows. Did anyone else have a problem in CreateASim? I already turned off shadows too!
