Sanity * ************* One of the new features in the game is your sanity meter. It is the diamond thing at the lower left corner of the screen. It will be filled up if you do something to raise it, that is, your wants. A total of four wants will be displayed at the left of the screen. To see what your wants are in detail, press Square. After you do one of your wants, another will appear, and so on. The more difficult the want is, the higher the raise is in the sanity meter. There are a total of 5 status of sanity, repersented by different colours: - None (Empty) : Your Sim will experience a breakdown. (Keep reading!) - Red (Nearly Empty) : Quick! Do something before it became empty! Your Sim cannot improve skills. - Green (Half) : You Sim is as happy as a clam, but the meter will 4 still decrease. - Yellow (Above Half): Your Sim is even MORE happy. - Platinum (Full) : Urgencies won't affect your Sims anymore, but they still occur. Remeber, the higher the sanity meter is, the easier it will be to learn skills or to win social games. If the sanity meter is empty, your Sim will experience a nervous breakdown, that is, your sim will need to pay $500 to recover (if you had the money). But, say, if you have only $250 when you breakdown, you will only need to pay $250, but you will not recieve care as good as giving $500 and you'll be in debt! ============================================================================== ****************** * 2.1 Aspiration * ****************** In the beginning of the game, Mambo Loa will give you a Aspiration Test, to see if you're a Knowledge Sim, a Money Sim, or a Social Sim. Each Aspiration will have unique perks and aspiration goals. You can change your Aspiration to gain new perks or goals by touching Doctor Newlow's helmet after you beat the game. |-----------------------------------| | Social Goal Set | |-----------------------------------| | Reach Friendship Level 4 with 1 | | Person | | Reach Romacne Level 4 with 1 | | Person | | Friends Score equals 16 | | Train Charisma or Body to Level 2 | | Invite your First Roomate | |-----------------------------------| |-----------------------------------| | Knowledge Goal Set | |-----------------------------------| | Train any Skills to Level 2 | | Total Skill Levels equal 8 | | Secrets Score equals 10 | | Buy a Computer for your Home | | Buy the 'Fast Learner' Perk [from | | the My Sim screen] | |-----------------------------------| ============================================================================== ******************* * 2.2 Personality * ******************* You personality is identified by the 12 horoscopes... here's the list: Aries - Freedom: You wanted to do whatever you wanted to. Leo - Friendship: You wanted to have lots and lots of friends. Sagittarius - Knowledge: You wanted to uncover the secrets of the universe. Gemini - Gossip: You like to gossip and talk about other people. Libra - Life: You wanted a fair and balanced life. Aqurius - Playful: You wanted to party all the time.

Taurus - Steady: You are steady and immovable. Virgo - Neat: You are clean and organized. Caprocon - Focus: You are focused and wanted to accomplish things. ============================================================================== **************** * 3. Urgencies * **************** If you don't fulfill your urgencies, the sanity meter will drop... fast. So make sure you take care all of them. With any low urgencies (They appear in the top left corner of your screen, and flashes when it's really in need), you are not allowed to play any mini-games. The furniture which is useful to that urgencies is listed below. Inside the brackets is the effect. The returning price can be roughly calculated by dividing the original price into two, then get rid of the decimals. E.g. $999 /2 = $499.5 = $499 ************** * 3.1 Hunger * ************** To ease hunger, you can take anything you want from the fridge (you'll need to pay first, of course) and then cook it.

Try painting or cooking, then sell your masterpiece. It will causes headaches if you don't take care of your money a look time. ************** * 3.9 Others * ************** Here's something that can ease all your urgencies! Nanovitalizer $9000 (15) ============================================================================== *************** * 3.10 Deaths * *************** When your hunger level is empty, you will collapse and turned into a ghost, then grim reaper will phone you. You can either use your sanity points to buy a new lease on life, or wander around scaring people (which is fun!). - The Bargain Pack: Red sanity, Hungry empty and Bladder maxed out. [100 Sanity Points] - The Good Life Pack: Green sanity, everything normal. [500 Sanity Points] - The Gold Pack: Yellow sanity, everything great! [2,500 Sanity Points] ============================================================================== ************** * 3.11 Bills * ************** Your Sim will recieve bills every 3 in-game day. Either Emily will call you or a message will pop up to remind you about this. It depends on your total asset score. The higher is the score, the higher the bill will be. If you ignore if for 3 days, you will be in debt and the bill will double up. My advise is that: The bill won't exceed 100$, just pay it as fast as you can. I know it's hard to do so if you're in Division 47 but please, for your wallet's sake... Do it! By the way, having roomates can reduce your bills! ============================================================================== ************* * 4. Skills * ************* Just like previous Sims games, there are skills for you to max out. Here's the list: |--------------|----------------| | Usage | Usage for Games| |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Body | Pulling |Flirt/Intimidate| | | | Smack-A-Ghoul | |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Charisma | N/A |Flirt/Chat/Kine | | | | Sunrise Ritual | |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Logic | Researching/| Smack-A-Ghoul/ | | | Repairing/ | Chat/ | | | Hacking | Intidimate | |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Creativity | Making Fake | Kine Sunrise | | | IDs | Ritual / YETI | |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Mechanical | Crafting | YETI | |---------------|--------------|----------------| | Cooking | Cooking | N/A | |---------------|--------------|----------------| And here's how you can build the skills up: Body ----- Bod-Tite Weight Bench $700 (+) Magna-flex $2500 (++) Charisma --------- Reflective Glass Mirror $100 (+) Porcelain Oval Mirror $200 (+) Morrocoptilopticon $370 (+) Medicine Cabinet $400 (++) Logic ------ Book Dehydrator $250 (+) 'Library' Bookcase $370 (+) Modern Mind Bookshelf $560 (+) The GetSmart 2200 $999 (+) The HubriSofe Superion $2200 (+) Mind Teaser $2800 (++) Creativity ----------- Painter's Easel $350 (+) Chimeway Saloon Piano $1100 (+) 'Legend' Grand Piano $1500 (+) Gothic Organ $2200 (++) Mechanical / Cooking ---------------------- MedioCity Mid-Range TV $500 (+) Scrounged TV $625 (+) Excesutive Plasma TV $1750 (+) Hypno-teacher $2600 (++) ============================================================================== **************** * 5.

Then, satisfy one of your wants and talk to Mambo again. Then, she will lecture you about secrets. You will now need to chat with Bella until she gives you a secret. Then return to Mambo. Then, she will tell you to flirt with wither Deputy Duncan or Bella Goth. Do it, then return to Mambo again. Buy something cheap from her and eat it. Finally, you're done and free from Mambo's preaches. Go and check your car out. But, just like what I've said before. Vanished. At this moment, you will catch sight of a cell phone.

Talk to Deputy Duncan, and he tell you that he wil give you a ride if you give him donuts. Well... Nevermind, Get into the Shoppe and start intimidating Mambo until she said that she hid the donuts in the trash can of the bathroom. Salvage the trash can, and return the donut to Duncan.

Trivia * ************** Yes, I have used a shorted name. Hooray! The Useless Money Bug --------------------- A e-mail sent in by James Cole says: "i used the cheat where you gain 1000 and when i go to buy things sometimes it says that i don't have enough, even thought i used the money cheat a few times it tell me to move things and sell them to get the money" The Pillow out of Wall Glitch ------------------------------- It might happen when you put a bed, with it's front sticking to a wall. The pillows will merge out of the wall when you use the bed. Creepy! The Wrong Side Sims Glitch ---------------------------- When you open a wardrobe or fridge, your Sims might be facing the opposite direction when they open it, i.e. they are not facing the wardrobe or the fridge! The Bed Glitch --------------- Say, when your Sims is sleeping on the LEFT side of a bed for two, the RIGHT side of the bed should be flat, and the blanket of the LEFT side of the bed should be bulge up, because the Sims is sleeping inside the blanket. But when this glitch strikes, the effect will be opposite. That means that the LEFT side of the bed (where the Sims sleeps) is flat and normal, but the RIGHT side bulges as if someone is sleeping in it. The Fast Money Secret ---------------------- Paint on a easel, and wait for the white cloth to appear for you to paint, press cancel and your painting will be done and is ready for you to sell! Max out your creativity for the best effect. Bella Goth ----------- This is crap. Just that Bella Goth is the woman infamous for abducted by the aliens in the Sims world. Divison 47 ----------- It is a reference to the real world Zone 51. Carp too. Dennis Philips --------------- Emily Emory said that he died because there's no ladder in the swimming pool in which he's swimming in, so he can't get out and drowned. This is the most common way to kill off a Sims among players of the original Sims... Well, you get the point. Connection with Sims 2 of PC ------------------------------ It is likely that the things happened in the Sims 2 of PSP is what happened after the stories of Sims 2 of PC. Pascal Curious is pregnant in the PC while he'a already given birth to the alien son in the PSP. Here are some fun back stories (according to the PC): - Circe Beaker is the ex-girlfriend of Vidcund Curious - Buzz Grunt's dead wife is called Lyla Vandermorgan, and he's got a third son called Buck. - Jenny Smith is actually the sister of the Curious. ============================================================================== ****************** * 13.

A: No. <-----------> Q: Can I marry to anyone? A: And no! But you can have roomates. <-----------> Q: Is there anything that differs from the Sims 2 on other consoles? A: Big difference! You can't build your house, have your family, have babies in the PSP version. The PSP version is a role-playing adventure game while on other consoles it is just like the original Sim, with better features, of course. <-----------> Q: How long does it takes for you to beat the game? A: I never beat the game 100%. I just finished the storyline and then I won't bother to find out all the secret. To finish the storyline I used like 8 to 12 hours. <-----------> Q: But when you finish the game don't you have your car back? (the one that got crashed at the begining of the game) - sharminesf A: No. Maxis is too lazy to build another new place for you to roam in. <-----------> Q: In your FAQ you said that I have to socialise with Virginya Feng, but where is she? - sharminesf A: A lady with red hair and always playing the piano. <-----------> Q: i want to know where i need to go and dig up nervous subjects charm. i tried the meeting house,where u said to dig it up at. and it wouldnt let me in the meeting house. - wildmantim90 A: This is either a glitch, or you haven't finish all the mission in Paradise Place yet. <-----------> Q: when you have to zap the warewolf-person, how do you do that??? i think that i already know who it is, but how do i complete the goal "decide who you think the warewolf is"??? that is where i am stuck - magna.dude A: Well, that's the trcky part for me when I first played it... But it turned out that it was simple when you know how. 1) Made a Taser 2) Go and talk to Annie Howell 3) Now you have different option of what you say, choice the one about massage. 4) She'll ask you to leave her alone. Do so. 5) Press Square, change your perk by pressing left and right until you found the taser. 6) Press Square again. Go to Annie (No need to talk to her, just stand besides her) and press O. <-----------> Q: i have a question on the Sim's 2 on the psp. my question is, i cant find the rest of the ingredients for hazels garden? i already have roses and garlic cloves, i just don't where to get the rest?

Give 5 roses, 5 garlic gloves and 5 gumflower petal to Hazel to get seed for berries. <-----------> Q: In the subject of Tank Grunt, every night I go and search for Mr. Smith outside but I can never find him. - sharminesf A: Make sure you get the goal and go outside at arouhd 0:00 to the place where there was a crashed saucer. ============================================================================== ************************ * 14.
