    I hope this tutorial video was helpful, and now you can start hoarding your CC, and soon you'll catch up to my 10GB folder!😂

    I had to say thank you for this tutorial. I could never do as well of a job as you just did, attempting to give instructions in a foreign language. I may be assuming that English is a 2nd language for you just because of the heavy accent. Regardless of what the reason may be, you did an excellent job! You are very knowledgeable.

If its okay can you please make a video on how to mod and basic stuff about modding and using SimPE. Im rather lost reading all the instruction and im afraid of breaking my game if im doing it myself without experienced instruction

I browsed modthesims yesterday and found some mod requires SimPE which i have no idea how it even works in the first place 😂 so maybe a basic introduction would be nice. And maybe how to use and apply mods bcs im planning to add mods like ACR, Community Lot Time, Community skilling, or editing sim lifespan into my gameplay. So basically this video but about mods 😅
      I will be waiting for your next video!!! Thank you for your hardwork!

    Hey. Do you know if it's possible to download and use CC if you downloaded the Sims 2 from oldgamesdownload? If yes, do you have any tutorials on how to do it or know any? There's where I got my TS2, and I don't have that folder for TS2 under EA games on my laptop.

    Thanks for the helpful video. The only problem I am having is getting the content installed in the game. I already have a DL folder with the extract contents but every-time I click on the file It opens up in word documents. Also my game has the enable checked box.

    • @CozyPixels
      @CozyPixels  3 роки тому +1

      Oh! That shouldn't affect them in the game I don't think, but if you want to make sure try downloading SimPE from here: modthesims.info/d/30839/simpe-latest-version-0-75f.html and set it as default application for. Package files. Let me know if it helped 🤗

    • @CozyPixels
      @CozyPixels  2 роки тому +1

      It doesn't show the dialogue window at startup all time, it only does so for cc/mods that alter the normal function of an object. :) Otherwise you have to enable it in game settings when you are in a neighborhood and restart the game!

    made a download file and extracted everything there, nothing showed in the game. i checked every box in the game for CC but still,
    so i opened the sims 2 body shop and tried to see where's the file it created was. i found it but the file is called "projects" and even tho i extracted everything there;
    still no luck
    any help?? :(

    • @CozyPixels
      @CozyPixels  3 роки тому

      The Projects folder is a different one, there bodyshop saves stuff if you want to create your own CC. The folder should be called Downloads with an 's' at the end, so make sure you did call it that way and also make sure you use a Capital letter at the beginning because it's case sensitive!

    My only concern with CC for TS2 is the Clean Installer. If you get to download Packages, great ! Nothing to be done, but otherwise when you download SimPacks, the Clean installer can only install one at a time, and its such a slow process. Sometimes lots dont show up. You spend 3 hours installing walls and floors, all packs and its becoming so annoying. If anyone has found a better program for installing PACKAGE files, I will be forever grateful to be informed about it, it will save me a lot of nerves, especially when i need to reinstall the game and must do all this all over again

      @CozyPixels  3 роки тому

      If you have the chance to get the sims 2, I would definitely recommend getting it instead of the sims 4! 😊 I think it has much much more potential, unfortunately you can only buy it second hand now, but there are multiple ways to get it for free, I recommend checking out reddit.com/r/thesims2help :)
