The Sims 2 Seasons Hints

To decorate your house with custom artwork first your sim must have a creativity level of 5 and be able to paint a still life

Have your sim paint and a frame will appear that you can center on whatever you want to paint If you want to paint a picture of something outside the Sims 2 game just press C anywhere at this time This will pause the game

Use Alt + Tab to exit the game then open a picture program such as Paint and open the snapshot you just took it will usually be in the folder: C:My DocumentsEASims2StorytellingSnapshotbmp

Then you also have to open the picture you want to have in your game If your picture is too large resize it so it will fit in the original snapshot from the game

Copy your custom picture on to your snapshot from the game then save the picture Use Alt + Tab to get back to your game and your sim will start painting your own custom picture

Using this trick you can put pictures of your friends or family web pictures or anything else in your Sims 2 game

First get whatever Mp3's you want to put on the game then open up MyDocuments/EAGames/TheSims2/Music/(whatever RadioStation you want your song on) Then Drag your MP3 into the folder Now start Sims 2 then go to options menu then music settings then the Radio Station then pick witch songs you want the radio to play You can now listen to your favorite songs in your Sims game

Have a sim call for pizza When the pizza delivery guy comes DON'T accept the pizza! The pizza delivery guy will eventually leave the pizza on the front porch and the pizza will never get stale You can stack as many pizzas as you want so if your sims get hungry just tell them to get a pizza from the front porch

There is a glitch in character creation mode where you can make absolutely disgusting faces The trick is that if you go to the face designing area and you select a face part such as the eyes and max out all the sliders one way or the other then go to a different face part and select one of the PREDESIGNED parts and then come back to the eyes the sliders will have reset in the middle but the eyes will still look the same This works for all of the face adjusting tabs Exploiting this you can make eyes the size of dinner plates cheekbones 4 feet long and a HUMUNGOUS nose to name a few

Buy a bookcase then have your sim start to study Interrupt the action so that the book it placed on the ground then simply sell the bookcase The book can then do everything the bookcase could have done for free
