What's on YOUR Wish List?

But you can alias the plumbbob toggle in the startup cheat. That's what I did in mine, so I only have to type in "p" to toggle. It's not as good as a "no plumbbob at all" hack, but still much more convenient.

I'd love the option to remove any of the eaxis walls/floors that I never use in the game -- which is about 90 percent of them.

I've got both a wall and a floor hider here:  http://ambular.djssims.com/index.php?category=4&subcat=11  They don't hide 90% and there's no guarantee they won't kill some stuff you actually want, but it's a start, and if you're at all proficient with SimPE you're free to customize them to your taste.

After reading this wonderful thread, I've decided to throw in my wish list for TS2.  Poke and laugh at me if you must, but I have to get this off of my chest:

My Wish List:

1) That the entire EA Management would be thrown out.  And, that people who respect not only PC gamers, but Mac gamers be put in their place.

(Okay, that's a pipe dream because hardly *anyone* in the gaming world who makes games thinks about Mac people, but that's beside the point. ) :(

On to the game:

2) That the sims would have more types of interactions with each other so that the randomness would mean something and it becomes less predictable.  For example, it is a given that the welcome wagon comes out to meet new neighbors in the 'hood.  But, wouldn't you expect each reaction to be different (from: "Get the heck off of my property!" to "How about some tea? Come inside)?  If that could be done, the longstanding feelings between neighbors could amount in more interesting relationships other than the predictable. And if there are different types of reactions between neighbors, it might put some really interesting twists in the neighborhood story-line.

3)More Aspirations.  I know that some of these aspirations function on Maslow's hierarchy of needs.  But, we need to have something else other than the "Eat Grilled Cheese" aspiration, et al.  There's got to be other types of things that Sims aspire to.  I do like aspirations in the long run, though.  And, I hope that TS3 does not entirely throw them out.

4)More variety of channels.  Along with that line, an easier way to put in custom television and radio stations in the game without the files overwriting themselves every time.

5) A work-around to help Mac folks shoot films in their games.  Right now, it is hard to shoot pictures in TS2 for some of us Mac folks because the video turns out choppy with little or no sound.  And that comes with good specs!!!  Along with that, an easier way to edit .avi video for Mac folks to put custom shows and movies in their games.  Why should Aspyr (or EAxis) sell such an great aspect in the game if it only works properly for some of their customers?

6)Better patches and more reliable updates for Mac players.  It seems that Aspyr has dropped the ball on FT and AL for us.  I wish that they could put aside some of their enthusiasm for Spore and get on with FT and AL. :(

7) I wish that the entire game could run like the hacks here and elsewhere by talented modders.  Your outstanding work has stopped the repetition in the game.

8)More variety in building styles.  Being primarily a builder in the game, I wish that there was more stuff to there to make interesting architecture.

9) Working dormers and other roofing mods in the game.  (like adding Gambrel roofs without a hack, for instance)

10) A way to control the wolves and the strays from coming on to the lot.  I love animals, but the wolves and the dogs constantly digging in the yard is such a drag.

That's all! I look forward to reading other folks' replies.  Have a nice night. :)

Edit:  I wish someone would update or continue to work on Woohoo for Macintosh.  It does a fraction of what SimPe can do for PC's.  If somebody who truly likes Macs and the TS2 out there who does "awesomeware" for the game could do something in that vein, I'd be a truly happy lady.  Mac folks need something similar to SimPE.  There simply needs to be something in which Mac Players can do "surgery" and other things to their Sims and game. 

Pretty Please?  ;D

Anything to get rid of the stupid "stand dates up" gameplay function.  Seriously, one time my Sim was standing outside waiting for the taxi to come and he STILL stood up the date.


If it doesn't tell you the taxi will pick you up shortly, you have to call a taxi yourself. Doesn't that mostly happen on outings and not dates?

rampancy:
This is an extremely tiny thing that I've always thought would be fixed, but never did:

When two people (let's say, Person A and Person B) are talking, this is the order of the little popups:

Person A: I like toys!
Person A gets a -{} icon over his head
Person B: Sorry, I don't like toys.

I always figured it it would be like this:

Person A: I like toys!
Person B: I dont like toys.
Person A gets a -{} icon over his head

Another one that I'm not sure if they fixed/changed was every Alien Sim was related to a single Alien, thus making everyone related.
