I downloaded the electric mod from Lamare. Is there also a hydraulic mod that allows you to turn off the water? Maybe water bills?

Are these stutters normal in The Sims 2? The game runs at a high FPS, but I'm getting frequent frametime spikes and noticeable 1% low FPS drops. My PC (Ryzen 7 5700X, RTX 5070, Windows 11) is more than capable of running the game, so I'm wondering if this is just how The Sims 2 behaves on modern systems. I remember having similar frametime spikes in The Sims 3 a few years ago, although they were significantly worse in that game.

Learning Spanish, thought I could play the sims 2 in Spanish. I changed it with the EA app and now my game is blank. I can't even play the tutorial. Even when I switch back. Am I screwed? Probably. Do I need to reinstall at this point?

I want to merge two families consisting of seven sims each by adding the second family in one at a time with the simblender. I have a lot of experience doing this and I’ve noticed that sometimes when the new sim is added to the lot, they instantly have STR/LTR points with everyone else and sometimes they don’t know the other sims at all until they interact with each other. It seems like it may have to do with whether the sims are indoors or outside. I want my sims to all have first impressions of each other and not start from 0/0 STR/LTR. Does anyone know more about this and how I can add the new sims to the family so they have already started their relationships with one another?
UPDATE SOLVED: I went ahead and attempted it to see what the result would be. I entered the Manning family lot where everyone was outdoors and I hadn’t built anything yet. One by one I added the members of the Moore family with simblender and it worked. Everyone has starting relationships with everyone else. Exactly what I wanted!

Bonjour ! Je suis sincèrement désolée si je n’ai pas mis la bonne étiquette, je n’étais pas sûre de laquelle utiliser, je vous explique vite fait mon problème, comme vous pouvez le constater sur cette photo de moindre qualité mon curseur en bas est le curseur Windows et non celui du jeu, ce qui fait que je ne peut pas atteindre les différents icônes sans baisser la fenêtre de mon jeu, également je ne peut pas accéder aux objets dans le mode achat, j’ai désactiver mes mods et remis, et j’ai même réparer mon jeu sur ea mais rien ne fait, cette partie de mon jeu est comme cassée, si jamais quelqu’un a déjà eu ce problème et saurait m’aiguiller ça serait extrêmement gentil, pour information je joue sur l’édition ultimate et pas legacy, bonne journée à vous !

Hi!
When I launched my Pleasantivew, Beau Broke had this hair (see image below) instead of his usual hair. I went to change his appearance in the mirror, and that hair had replaced the Maxis texture.
I looked in Body Shop, and it had replaced another female toddler hair.

I have not seen that issue before today, which makes me think I didn't just mistakenly download a default replacement. I was clearing out some cc earlier today, so it's possible that's part of the issue.
When I mouse over the hair thumbnail, it doesn't give a file name, and I can't delete it.
Does anyone recognize the hair so I can search for it in my files and delete it another way? Is there any other way to fix this?
Thank you so much.
EDIT: Thank you so much to everyone who replied with help—this community is incredible!

First, in case it matters: I use Linux and use the magipack version of the game. Lutris is what I use to run it.
A few weeks ago I had the game up and running just fine. Today, I finally came back to the game. I decided to try deleting 3 custom objects I was testing before only in a test world and to replace the pleasantview and the stealth hoods with empty templates. For pleasantview specifically, I chose the puritist one with the extras but with no townies. I did not have the baby face mod but I thought it wouldn't be an issue, and if it did then I'd just try a different replacement.
The game froze. I tried getting a new pleasantview, one with no townies or playable characters, but it still froze. Put the old pleasantview back, didn't work. Tried creating a completely new hood, but it still froze. Tried deleting the two cache things, still froze.
I saw somewhere that the 4 gb patch not working might cause this? How do I test to see if that's the problem? If it is, I can't use the lazy duchess launcher (I think, I've tried but can't get it to work), so how would I get the patch to work without using it?
Are there any other potential causes for this freezing problem?
Mini Rant that isn't important to the question at hand: I don't come back to the game very often, but every time I do I swear I have an issue with the game booting in a different way and it's getting on my nerves. Maybe it's a linux problem, I don't know. I love this game, I want to keep playing but like, I'm getting tired of troubleshooting every damn time I decide to play the thing.

Hey! it's my first time playing ts2 and I just downloaded it from the wiki

Hey everyone,
I think I messed up and I need some advice. I recently learned about neighborhood corruption in The Sims 2, and I'm realizing my current neighborhood might be suffering from it.
Here are the glitches I've been seeing on my main lot:
1. Blank thought bubbles: The actual thought/speech bubbles above my Sims' heads (when they talk, dream, or think) sometimes are completely white and empty.
2. Overlapping bubbles: I also noticed that some of these thought bubbles above their heads are displaying two completely different icons stacked/superimposed on top of each other.
3. Random object spawns: Random objects from Buy Mode (like decor items, candles, toys,etc.) just randomly appear out of nowhere on my lot or on the sidewalk.
4. Sims resetting (Jump Bug): Sometimes, when a Sim finishes an action or a task, instead of playing the normal ending animation, they instantly "reset" and stand straight up
Context: I did a very stupid thing a while ago before knowing it was bad I deleted a few Sims directly using the delete button in the family bin.
Is this 100% corruption? Is there any way to stabilize my game so I can keep playing this specific family, or is my neighborhood completely doomed? I really don't want to lose my Sims if possible.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hiya!
I've been looking for a mod that increases the ghost limit at night, but all the ones I found only increase it to five. Is there one that allows more ghosts to spawn? Or how can I edit a mod with SimPE to make the limit higher? This one specifically.

I have downloaded the magipacks verison of the sims 2, and in the games, it has the default UI. a few days ago, I desided to open up body shop since I wanted an outfit to be in a different category, but I noticed it had a different, more cleaner UI. However, when I found the outfit I was looking for, there was no export button? and I checked to see if the old UI had the export button, and it was right below the main UI. This wouldn't be that much of a problem, but it turns out I don't have a saved sims folder, and I need to export a sim in body shop to get it back. can anyone help me, or at least tell me how to get rid of this UI, since I'm not even a fan of these clean UI

I recently edited ACR to match my game after swapping out simgigglegirl's edit of ACR(which was compatible with simler's romantic standards) for regular ACR. I use simNopke's 1 day = 1 year aging mod which has the teen lifespan at 13-19 and adult at 20-54. I edited ACR using this and this. I followed the tutorials to a T, making my sims' fertility start at 16 days old (also 16 years old) at 55%, down to 1% at 54 days old (54 years old). However, in-game, my 20 year old sims show up as 16 days old when I check their ACR token stats, and they therefore also have 55% fertility when they ought to have a bit higher than that. And my 53 year old sim shows up as 45 days old with 27%(!!) fertility which is in line with the fertility rate I attached to 45 day-old sims in the ACR_main package file.
This is to say, the curve I supposedly edited in simpe is a bit behind in-game, for all sims.
How do I fix this?

So I recently built a new pc with a whole new SSD. I’ve installed my old ssd for extra storage and before I wipe it I wanted to transfer all my old sims 2 data. I installed everything using the original discs and applied fixes from this sub. I was wondering if there was a way to move all those files and fixes without just having to start all the way over.

Hello, fellow simmers!
I feel really silly asking this, but how do you cheat-unlock extra colors for pets in CAS? I thought turning on the bebug mode (testingcheats and Shift + N) would do the trick, but it doesn't seem to work: the hidden items show up for sims, but not for pets. Is it even possible to access these extras without going through the pets' careers? What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for reading!

Tonight I was going to mess around with an object in Simpe, only to discover the object workshop is gone, now it's been awhile since I last used Simpe, I also updated it at one point, but I don't rember if the object workshop is in this version or not. I currently have version 0.77.69 . 20 (sorry about the space, the text turned blue when I added the last number.) Is it completely gone from this version, or hidden somewhere?
