I can't play TS2 on WIndows 8.1 I've tried EVERYTHING

All the base games apart from The Sims Stories games seem to lack clothes

Running it in comparability mode doesn't work?
If you register it through Origin and redownload?

Surely the Ultimate Collection will be compatible for new PC's?

10 Sim Lane used to be my favourite house EVER. It still slays so hard.



I actually wanna try to rebuild it for my TS2 neighbourhood now.

It it even worth it to install the Sims 2 Ultimate? I mean now that I have it, I'm wondering if I'm even gonna play it

I'm fine with the clothes we get with the base game tbh, they're FAR better than that trash Sims 3 base game had. They were all so bad.

"Your approximate wait time is between 40 - 45 minutes." Bye.

That is my favourite lot too I have so many memories of that one.

When I played properly I had the brown beds for all my 8 sims around the house because I couldn't afford to extend it. Also the amount of Sims I would have fall asleep in the kitchen was tragic.

What EPs would you all say are required for TS3?

That's strange. It works on mine. I'm guessing you already tried compatibility mode.

What exactly goes wrong?

I was thinking that too. I own The Sims Pet Stories which basically features enough furniture, features and lots to keep me happy when I crave The Sims 2

I always used rosebud !;!;!;!;!;! and then bought my Sim a Servo. TS1 just had so much charm.

If you try the phone help line do they actually call you? I put my number in an hour ago and all I got was a call from some bot offering me a free Carnival cruise Didn't take long for EA to sell my info apparently

Pets, Seasons, Generations are the usual trinity.

University Life is great if you lived TS2 University. Supernatural is great too if you loved Makin Magic.

Start with those three though. World Adventures, Ambitions and Late Night are probably the least exciting of them all.

The rest inbetween are up to your personal taste

Damn, sorry to hear. That sucks sis I already have all of the games on CD with the codes and everything, but not in Origin: do you think I'll get it?

Late Night, Pets, Seasons and Ambitions are the essential EPs, I'd say.

It did!

If you go on The Sims official channel, the actual developers of the original Sims play Makin Magic.
It's so fun to watch them comment on everything about the game. And learn how they had so much freedom with The Sims towards the end knowing that The Sims 2 was around the corner.

It looks good. Hair design could be better tho But I will miss CAS so much ...

If you have the original base game, definitely!
