linacherie’s Tumblr (https://linacheries.tumblr.com) is a nice place to find build and buy custom content and 4t2 conversions. She makes cc for TS4 as well and it’s very good.
Sending you love, Cindy! 💖

Thank you! And I agree, that’s a great site! Someday I’m gonna update this list because there are a lot more I need to add!

Hey Cindy, thanks for the helpful posts! I’m probably late to the party, but I just realised now, that when I try to use the affinity sims website, it says they have no sims 2 content. 🙁

Hmm. That is strange! I just checked and you’re right. It shows hundreds of items in the lists, but nothing is showing up. I will remove them from the list!

Hello Cindy,
First of all, thank you for your work.
I recently came across a very intresting set of downloads: it is all the CC created by Maxis!
Here’s the link: https://naterxandersims.tumblr.com/post/170288460735/sims-2-bonus-items-master-post-ive-uploaded
From what I understood (english is not my native language), all those items were once available (I guess not for free) on the official Maxis/EA website. The website shut down so you can’t google those items easily anymore.
You can find TV, tables, clothes, cars, ect…
Most of them look amazing, I love them since they were made by Maxis.
Some looks weird though lol
I don’t know if you already knew about it, but I thought I could share it with you and everyone that is following you 🙂 .

I know I’m late to this post, but thank you so much for taking the time to compile this!

I am going to go crazy with these sites.
Hopefully, I’ll be able to find the right stuff to take me from the 50s to the present of the Sims 2. I’m playing in a past Pleasantview with ancestors of the Sims and ancestors of mine.
If you put The Sims 1 in 2000 (the year EA/Maxis released the game), then The Sims 2 is 2025, and The Sims 3 (era) is 25 years prior in 1975 (which matches nicely with the 70s, 80s, and 90s Pack). If Mortimer is younger than 13 in 1975 with a week before his birthday, he was born in 1962. Mortimer’s father, Gunther, was alive when his grandson, Alexander, was born. Alexander has 13 days before he is a teenager in 2025, meaning that he was born in 2012.
Now, I don’t think Gunther dropped dead the second Alexander was born, so maybe died a few years later in 2015? Who knows. This dating thing is based entirely on TS1 being firmly in 2000 (February to be exact) and is altogether fanonical and not canonical. Gunther had 17 days in his elder stage when he died, and apparently, he died in a fire. This information is all from sims.fandom.com.
I will have Gunther as a teenager in the early to mid-50s with his family and anyone else. And it works with putting my family in the game because my mom’s dad was born in 1942, meaning he’d be a child when Gunther was a teenager.
About “era,”: I believe that TS3 is also an alternate past and the exact past of TS4. In the game, there’s a book written by Alexander Goth called, “Where’s Bella?” Yes, it’s a playoff of “Where’s Waldo,” but it’s still a book written by someone who wouldn’t be born for years.
Essentially, I believe that Alexander went back in time to save his mother from being abducted by aliens but travelled too far back. I think he’s why there are smartphones and modernish computers in TS3 that contradict the old computers and early cellphones in TS2.
I’m sorry for the essay, but at least I used Grammarly even though Grammarly sucks sometimes.

Do you like the Sun&Moon Stuff too?

It looks very nice, but I haven’t ever used any of it.

Thanks for the lists. They are very useful, but I can’t find anything on the custom food you use. 🙂

Food is custom content, and you can find it on my Pinterest board here: https://www.pinterest.com/pleasantsims/sims-2-cc-foods/
I pin all my CC on Pinterest. Thanks for stopping by!Reply
Heya! I was wondering if you knew any cc creators that make a more sims 2 looking maxis match instead of an alpha cc clayified type of hair. I understand if you don’t know because its extremely hard to find in my opinion >.< Also thank you for the maxis clothes I love these sites!

Hi Angelica! You can see what I consider the best Maxis Match hair creators in this post: https://pleasantsims.com/sims-2-default-replacements/#find

Oh, my… I recently installed TS2 again, after a bit more than a couple of year and I was looking on Pinterest some stuff to update my Downloads folder hehehe, that’s how I got here.
I’m really surprised there are still some of us who like and play this game. Even more when I saw your latest post (2 days ago). Thank you so much for this list.
Cheers!

Hi Ana! There is still a fairly large and active Sims 2 community, believe it or not! We have over 700 members in the Discord Server right now. I’m happy you’ve found us and glad I could help! 🙂

Very helpful! This list is a great starting point for modding in TS2. Plenty of people recommend newbies this page. Your posts are excellent and an example of how great and collaborative The Sims Community is. (: Thank you, a lot.

Hello, I have a mod suggestion for you. http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=7999.0
It’s a lighting mod, which adds a dawn and a dusk and now I can’t live without it. The installation guide says to put it to C/program files/ea games/the sims2/ts data/res/lights I figured out that with the UC it is the same, but instead of the “sims 2” there is a “double deluxe” folder to put it.
Reply
Hi Hendrick! Thanks for the suggestion! I was using Spooky Muffin’s Lighting mod, but I found that I didn’t really like it after playing for a while. It’s on my to-do list to find another one, so I’ll check this one out when I get a chance. 🙂

Hi Cindy! I was wondering if you take suggestions of CC/mod makers? If so, midgethetree at tumblr has some really cool (and simply convenient) mods, like some really neat default werewolf skins (+werecats!) correlated with hair color, a mod that removes the water spurting fx from plumbing, plus some conversions and recolors! It’s definitely worth a look! 🙂
Reply
Hi Swifty! Yes, I absolutely do take suggestions! I’m always looking for new creators.
I LOVE Midgethetree. I haven’t put her on this list because I mostly see her as a mod creator, but I think you’re right. She probably does need to be added. I will put her under general CC in the next update. Thanks for the suggestion!

I would love to see a tutorial about how you organize your custom content. I have some and I want more but I know I will throw it all together and it will be a mess.
Thanks and love your channel.
