I'm really starting to wish that there was a way to keep collections separate. Containers specifically for all seeds, all rocks, and all bugs would be very useful. Some sort of display for bugs would be neat, too - there's fish bowls for fish, so why not?
I also have a question pertaining to the law enforcement career track: how exactly do you write reports? I've questioned one sim and dug in the trash of two different families, and not once did the option to write a report show up. I checked both my sim's computer, his workplace, and options while he was at work - all nada. Does it require actually finding a sim guilty of something worth reporting on?
If you get enough evidence it will pop up and say that your sim has found some very promising evidence on the sim, while digging in their trash. I never got the questioning to work for me, but trash did. Then you go to the computer and under the "Writing" tab it will have write a report on whatever sim you got evidence on.

I was egged on by FPJ, Kiki and Nec to do this.

P.S. I hate the camera movement control system in TS3!! It sux. Also, I was too lazy to make a proper 3-walled Sim video set, so deal with that, k.
ETA: Myubo sux, link zorched.
Awesomeness.

Questioning works quite well, and the funny thing is the more info you get, the more information there is available for the reports and the better they turn out. I tend to line up certain interactions - greet, ask about career, get to know, tell funny story and then question. If the Sim they're talking to is in the criminal track, I will make sure they get every single bit of information from that Sim that they can because those reports are worth the most.

There is a display for bugs, I dragged a beetle out from inventory to the floor and it got it's own little display case thingy.
Also, it took me a bit to figure the second one out. I first greeted Bella and then did the 'Question' interaction. She said I was boring and wasn't having it. I said she was a overrated something or other and moved on. Next I went to harass her mother and she did the same thing. I figured they were just snobs but decided to keep at it. I did a few chat interactions and told her that her house looked lovely and then did the question interaction. It worked this time. He basically learned all her traits rapidly and then there was a 'Write a report on...' option under 'Writing' on his laptop. Silly Eaxis, real cops don't have to brighten peoples day before asking them questions.

This. Enough said.
In other news, I have found out that leftovers transfer automagically between houses when you move. I have also found that it's way too easy to get someone in bed. It takes them forever to get to best friends but with one or two romantic interactions you are going at it like wild pigs! I miss turn ons and attraction, though it will probably be in the 3rd reincarnation of hot date. And that newspaper lies, it said some new fambly named McGreggor? I think... moved in but I can't find them. L&P!

Is TS2 modding over? My biggest fear is you modders will lose interest in TS2 now, like so many did with TS1 (understandably, mind you), and in time there'll be no more beautiful shinies to add to my game *sigh*
The thing is I got bored with Sims 2 some months ago, that's why I haven't been doing stuff for it lately. It's not because of Sims 3 coming out.
