Ah, that's better... New version of Sims2DB database available
windy_moon:
This rocks. ;D
I only have about 25 Sims entered, but I can't wait to enter the rest now that there is a relatives button. That's the coolest thing!!
Thanks!

Redownloading now :D
Ancient Sim:
Do the Sims have to be entered into the database before the game can find relatives? I was assuming that if I entered one member of the family, it would find all the others, but it doesn't seem to be doing so if they're not in the database. Also, how do I enter my own neighbourhoods? The only neighbourhoods there are not ones in my game and when I delete them, it doesn't replace them with mine. Even if I enter my neighbourhood, it's not available to choose in the drop-down box.
Pegasys:
Sims2DB is completely separate from the Sims 2 game. Sims2DB does not pull or extract any data from the Sims 2 game; all the data in the Sims2DB is whatever you enter. So yes, you need to enter in all the Sims in order for the database to find relatives.
In the future I may use exported data from something like SimPE to make it a little easier for you to enter your Sims, but you'd still have to link the Sims together (as parents and children) for the database to figure out the relatives.
As far as the neighborhoods, you can edit the Neighborhoods drop-down list and add your own. Click on the drop down list, at the very bottom there's "Edit". I have debated making this an auto-fill like the Household list (where it only populates the list with current values).

Dude, this is so awesome. :D
I'm going to have to hire a Kelly Temp to enter data for me if I really want to record the finer points, but I'm closing in on getting the basics on all 80+ Sims in and knowing who is related to whom and how is awesome.
(Thanks to the folks who messed up before me by saving over the original DB files.
*bows* Avoided that disaster... I never RTFM, I always just push buttons.)
