Welcome to my faq. This is the second time I'm writing a Sims faq. The
first one was on the Urbz: Sims in the City. I received such
overwhelming response that I decided to write another faq. Since this is
only my second faq, I'm still an amateur,so please forgive
me if I make any mistakes during typing or some errors in the faq.
If you wish to post this guide on your site you must e-mail me and be
granted permission, and you must give credit to me.

If you have any tips or suggestions, send me an e-mail with TIPS or
suggestions for Sims 2 as the title!
This is the 1st Sims 2 for PS2 faq ever made! Yee haa!
My faq is finally complete! Both freeplay and story mode in it.
Plus all gold wants listed as the others are optional to the game.
Cheers!

3.0 Getting Started

Here are some basics you need to know before playing the game. The main
purpose of this game is to complete your aspirations mainly the gold
aspirations as it will enable you to move on to another location.
All other aspirations are OPTIONAL!!

going to Alien Crash site!

IMPORTANT! Do not interact with ANY alien if you have not been to the
Alien Crash site. Follow or restart your game!
___________
3.2 Needs
___________
There are 8 basic needs. The box will change color from green to light
orange to red and black when completely empty.
To know your basic needs: Press the left button and Square if you need
details.
1) Social Interaction: Have mostly green to ensure that your Sim has
enough interaction with other Sims. Sims need to interact with others
and have friends. If the bar is completely empty, your Sim may show signs
of depression.
2) Bladder: You will need to go to the toilet!! The more you eat, the more
frequent you will need to use the toilet. If you do not go to the toilet
in time, your sims will wet themselves. Eeekss... your Sim will end up
being dirty and have to take a shower.
3) Shower: Besides bladder control, your Sim need to have regular baths. If
not, swarms of flies will surround your Sim and other Sims will avoid him or
her as they will stink!
4) Hunger: You need to eat in order to survive. Head down straight to the
refrigerator to cook a meal. There is a new addition to cooking your meals.
You are able to select the ingredients for each meal. More details will
be discussed later. Green indicates that your Sim is full.
5) Fun: Everyone needs to have fun even your Sims. So please do fun things
like dancing to the Stereo or watching TV, playing games or watever that is
FUN.
6) Energy: This is important as your Sims need to rest. Either sleep on a
bed or for quick naps, buy a couch and select power nap! Remember that if
your Sim is too tired, he/she may fall asleep on the floor. Poor thing!
7) Comfort: Simply rest on a bed or a couch.
8) Room: Your Sims wants to live in a clean environment. Toilets
and the kitchen constantly gets dirty. Clean the toilet bowls, bathtubs,
any puddles of water and clear all used plates or they will give out a
repulsive smell marked by some green odour.
Also take out the trash once the wastebasket is full. If you are too lazy,
call the maid. It is $10/- per hour.
_____________________________
3.3 Aspiration & Fears
_____________________________
This is the latest addition to the game. Instead of completing goals in the
other games, you will be needed to fulfil your Sims' aspirations.
Aspirations are basically the hopes and wishes of the Sims. Different Sims
will have different aspirations depending on what aspiration you select when
creating your Sim. Aspirations will or may change on a daily basis when you
Sim wakes up from sleep or a nap. The most important aspiration to fulfil
is the gold aspiration. It will lead you further into the game and unlock
new locations.
The most important aspirations are the gold ones. Once you have a
cumulative aspiration points of 27,900 points, you don't exactly have to
bother about the others because once you have 27,900 points, you will
have unlocked all the 50 items.
** Remember you only need to complete the gold ones! All other aspirations
are optional! **
There are 5 different aspirations: romance, wealth, knowledge, popularity
and creativity.
Besides aspirations, your Sim also has fears. Be sure to avoid fears.
To know what are the aspirations and fear:
Press the right button. You will see a scale. Press on square button
and the details will be shown. The more aspirations you fulfil, the higher
the scale will be. Initially it will be in green but if most aspirations are
fulfilled it will turn silver and gold. However, if you have fulfilled more
fears than aspirations, the scale will turn red.
Death can occur if there is a fire or if the Sim is poisoned by food!
Don't worry. Your Sim will turn into a ghost and it can spook or haunt people.
You are still able to control it's actions except that it cannot go to work
and can pass through walls. Don't need to eat too! To become alive, visit the
grim reaper (he will hang around once death occurs... the guy with a grey
costume). Either win the fiddle game or pay $100. Your Sim will become human
again!!!
To be abducted by Alien. Buy the Truth Telescope and spend some time
using it! Somehow something will grab your Sim from above and you
will get a prompt that your Sim is at a journey in the sky. Dont
worry, your Sim will be back shortly. I remember my Sim rushing to
the toilet and vomitted after she came back from her so called
adventure!
If fire breaks out, you cannot enter the BUY Catalog and the Build Catalog.
Quickly call the Firefighter to put out the fire. If you are late, the item
will be burned down. If a Sim dies, make sure to go to the Grim Reaper and
choose either to win a fiddle match with him or easy just pay him $100!
Important!
Only GOLD and Platinum wants will unlock the next location!!
Complete all Gold wants first (those in the gold/yellow box) which is the
topmost aspiration in the list. After successive completion of all Gold
wants, you will get the Platinum want which will unlock the next location.
The scale bar will turn to silver/platinum color once you are given the
platinum want.
The other wants in the green box are optional. Also avoid those in the
red box.

3.4 Career & Skill
_____________________________
You will need money in this game and getting a job is the only way to
get money. To get a job, simply pick up a newspaper > find a job or
buy a PC.
The newspaper will only display 3 job selections while the computer can
display about 5 job selections.
Different careers will require different skills. You will be fired if you
miss work two days in a row. If that happens, you will be demoted back
to level one of that job. To avoid being fired simply change jobs before
you receive the call that you are fired.
Skill:
Skill items can be found in the BUY CATALOG. Press on Start button and
select buy catalog. Press R1 till you see Skill Objects. Scroll to each
object and details regarding the price and the skills it will improve
will be given.

3.5 Socialising
________________
You will need to interact and make friends here. In order to socialise,
simply select the Sim you wish to interact with and pick a social move.
Intially start using Talk social, then move on to compliment, impress
sock puppets, charm/tickle/hit on, then move to the romantic socials
like make out, kiss, hug, squeeze etc.
You can also get married, cuddle in bed and woo hoo!
You need 40 relationship points to be friends. The colour of the background
can be a good indicator. If it is red that means they are in love.
Tip:
The fastest way to be friends.
For a start use the talk option repeatedly until about 10 relationship
points. Then start using other socials like, tell a joke, compliment,
impress, sock pupptets (I realise most female Sims like this but not
all male Sims like this esp Noel and Torin). If you have high creative
skill about 6 and above use draw potrait. It will give you much added
relationship points. Once you have reached 40 points, use tickle but be
warned some don't like this like Jonas, use charm or hit on. Or you may
want to select back crack, tell tale or confide. I have problems
confiding to Jonas as he would announce to everyone what I just told him!
Good Luck
Be sure to maintain your relationship with them by either calling them,
invite them over to hang out with them or even chat on the computer. By
throwing a party is a sure way to get many Sims over. Relationship points
will decrease as time passes by. So maintain your friendship!
To get 100% completion you need to help 15 Sims. These Sims are those you
can control. So you need to complete all their gold wants.
_____________________
3.6 Food Ingredients
_____________________
As I have mentioned earlier, you are ablet to select the type of ingredients
you wish for each meal.
When you go to a refrigerator, the ingredient list will appear. They are
divided into sections.
Meat. vegetables. Fruits. Dairy. Grain. Liquids. Oils.
Harvested Seafood, Harvested Fruits. Harvested Vegetables.
To harvest seafood, buy the aquarium.
To harvest fruits, buy frood tree.
To harvest vegetable, buy garden hutch.
All the 3 items are found in Miscellaneous list in Buy Catalog.
To harvest food, click on the plant and select harvest! Note: The gardener
does not harvest food. To get seafood, go to the tank and select Get FISH!
You can also decide on which method you wish to prepare your meal. That will
also depend on what kitchen appliances you have. A point to note is the more
expensive the refrigerator the more items available.
After preparing the food, you may wish to look at it first before eating. It
will tell you whether the food is tasty and well prepared or whether it will
result in a repulsive effect such that emptying of the bowels is needed, or
an aphrodesiac reaction will occur, skill boosting effect or enery boost
effect.
Ingredient lists will be added later.
Also you may want to check on the recipes you have unlocked by pressing
circle button. Refer to tips section on how to unlock recipes.
To get pink hearts: One Suggestion is Lobster, Tuna & Passionfruit
To get energy boost effect: Select ingredients with high energy content
For repulsive/nauseous meal: Use fish especially eel and squid
Pink hearts mean that when you interact with someone, you will be in love
mode. Therefore, romantic socials will be enabled for you to use.
Black hearts mean that when you interact with someone, you will be in
enemy mode. You are most likely to offend that person and reduce the
relationship points.
Rain drops mean that the food will heavily deplete your bladder. Rush to the
toilet!
Green stuff coming from the food means you have just created a repulsive
meal which can have a nauseous effect like instant vomitting.
Stars mean your Sims get +3 skill points in all skills until it wears off.
It's an easy way to get a fast promotion as in get the stars before leaving
in the carpool.
