[xhannasimsx]

Babbaaaaa! Babaaaa!

Lol thanks Val. This helped so much xD

[iiloveanime1]

How do you download from xmsims2? please answer :]

[xhannasimsx]

@iiloveanime1 you choose a category, for example: Sims 2 Hair. Or anything else you want. You look through the selection and choose the content or items you want and you click on them. Click Download, If there is a MESH for the hair, you must download that. I normally do a special folder for those types of downloads. Then, (you must have winrar to do this,) select all files u have saved, click "extract here" and then they will be package files. Put them in Documents>EA Games>Sims2>Downloads :)

[iiloveanime1]

@xhannasimsx okay thank you so much :D

@QTValeria When I tried to download hacks and stuff, i clicked on the thing to open it and it said that the file was damaged. Has this happened to you? Can you help me?

[SimsMarrit]

@twistylove7797 ,

Maybe you could use 'moveobjects on'

and then you have to learn speech by a mirror,

and then take youre sim wherever you want (:

-Sorry 4 bad english, haha ^.^-

[SimsMarrit]

Could somebody help me please? I also work with Gunmod's first camera, and i used fraps to film it (Then i zoom in with camtasia studio, so you cant see the menu etc.) but, when i want to film it is very choppy..

[shannietjuh5]

1:13 how do you set them in that pose?

[TheMysteryNom]

how do you do poses on beds and stuff?

[TheAnimeWaffles]

how do you upload the videos on youtube D:

[ifyoucouldbeavampire]

@TheAnimeWaffles when you film in sims games they get saved to a folder in ur computer. for example if u hve sims 2 double deluxe and windows 7 you would go to documents, ea games, the sims 2 double deluxe, and movies and voila! ur videos should be saved there! the you just edit what you want and then go to youtube and click upload n select that video! simple!

[TheAnimeWaffles]

@ifyoucouldbeavampire okay thx :D

[WolfGurl041200]

thank you this helped :)

[mabledonutz]

[blinkthenfall]

[QTValeria]

@SilverHands1 moveobjects on <-- that cheat will let you move anything anywhere. but you need a pose that has your sim already on a pose that has it floating on the air to be put on a couch or bed.

ill have a vid more on posing and such! (:

[BadluckittyGR]

[MrsGothicbunni]

OMG THAT ONE SIMS LOOKS LIKE HAYLEY WILLIAMS!! I HAVE HER NAME AND I LOVE HER !!!! SHE IS MY IDOL :DD

@MrsGothicbunni ur name is hayley williams too?

[MrsGothicbunni]

@ifyoucouldbeavampire Well, her full name is Hayley Nicole Williams, mine is Hayley Nicole *****-Ya like in really going to say my last name on youtube- X3

[ifyoucouldbeavampire]

@MrsGothicbunni well it doesnt really matter if you say your full name on youtube. people have other ways of getting your information that they dont need your full name. plus there are hundreds of people on the earth with the same first and last nameas you. i get why you wouldnt want to, but im just telling you that it doesnt matter anymore.

[QTValeria]

@MrsGothicbunni lol, you think so ? lol, i made that hairstyle inspired by hayley, i love her, she really is amazing.

and damn, arent you lucky ! it is a really pretty name. (:

[HonoKilljoys1234]

@MrsGothicbunni That's funny because i love her too !! Yes,i love paramore :DD

[MrsGothicbunni]

@HonoKilljoys1234 Paramore will always rock. :D

[MrsGothicbunni]

@Haiirosii Yay! Hayley PARTAAYY <333 o .o

[ValeAlej]

Hi x) Well ... My question may be silly and experts in the field ..really absurd xD How do I put the poses in the game, and how do I make the sim do the pose when I want? I will go download clothes, and furniture to the game, and indeed, your links have helped me a lot, thanks! Well, if the explanation is too long, I leave my mail (of course, first I hope your answer XD) :) Your reply would be helpful, thank you before hand :)

PS: What a coincidence, my name is Valeria too xd (?)

[TheGreenBabyGirl]

How can i make my Sims NOT do stupid stuff? Because whenever i shot a clip, they always end up doing stupid stuff making it ruin the movie and making me pause the game over and over.

[freakmaxaii116]

hey thanxs for tha help but on my computer or OS (if that's what u call it) mod the sims 2 DOES NOT (i repeat) DOES NOT work! btw i have windows 7 but my sims 2 game works. and yes i tried restarting and all that shit and still it doesnt werk and on friday on december 24,2010 im getting a laptop with windows 7 i told my dad i wanted windows vista since so many people use it but he could find any program to have windows vista so help please?

[ifyoucouldbeavampire]

@freakmaxaii116 thats cuz windows vista is a piece of junk with errors all through it. windows 7 is awesome! thats wut im using while i type this very response to ur comment!

[SpringyLife98]

@freakmaxaii116 Don't downgrade to Vista!!!!! Did you register to ModTheSims2? It may have been down, but keep Windows 7!!! You'll regret it!

[crazyLOLcats]

@SpringyLife98 i agree

[Georgia44cnr]

How do you slow down camera movements?

[QTValeria]

@Georgia44cnr look in the description for more info. !

[BlueHamstersRock]

@SilverHands1 You need to put 'moveObjects on' in the cheats box when you start the game.

[momandsyd]

how do you acctivate the poses?

[marissa910]

@momandsyd after you download the poses, you have to install them. if you installed them and they're in your game, i believe that they will be under the same menu that your instruments are under (at least, that's where most of my hack boxes are.) if not, you have to look around more. but then you just click on the box & they have loads of options. :)

[momandsyd]

@marissa910 thank you I appreciate it

[momandsyd]

@marissa910 hold on how do you install it?

[222lexiboo]

I suck at downloading stuff from the the sims mods. The only place where I get my stuff for the sims is the sims resource or the sims 2.com and those are simple but plz help me with the mod sims plzzz and ty

[simiwwe]

i have a question if i do all the camera thing and changing them and stuff will it turn out blurry cos wen i use the video it turns out so blurry. plz answer.

[QTValeria]

@simiwwe oh yeah, chang your camera settings and options in game to high and such, make sure to check other peoples tutorials too! mine only coveres some...heheh, but i hope it helped ^.^

[meezsims2luver956]

hey um i tried to open one of the mod the sims 2 links but they didnt work and i tried the rest of mts2 links and thety didnt work either only the other one's

[PlaythenWork]

@meezsims2luver956 ModtheSims has been down for a while now and I wish someone from there would post something somewhere. I am so sad about this.

[meezsims2luver956]

@PlaythenWork oh okay. thanks for telling me. and yeah im also very sad about this too.

[MissStarlette09]

Do you know any cheats where you dont see that green diamond above the sims while recording? And is their also a cheat to get rid of the chat bubbles?

[PlaythenWork]

@MissStarlette09 to remove the green diamond which is called a plumbbob, you bring up your cheat window and type boolproptoggle off. Some people say that the chat bubbles are removed by typing showheadlines off. For me only the notices that pop up on the side are removed with this. If you are filming, just ensure that the bubbles are not in your shot by lowering your camera to just over their heads. Hope this helps:)

[Luvpugslot1998]

When I try to downlode the pose box for my game, It is zipped and I can't unzip it and I can't downlode it from my game :(

How do you unzip it??

[QTValeria]

[001FredRox100]

[auditiondancer57]

[NerdyNiceGirl4Life]

[PhoenixFirestone]

Ooohhh thank you. which is better SIms 2 or 3 i want to download it.

[QTValeria]

@PhoenixFirestone i prefer sims 2 since there is so many things already made for it. but you could try sims 3, its all up to you ^.^

[PhoenixFirestone]

@QTValeria Oh ok Thank You. You have been very helpful unlike some of the other people

[QTValeria]

@PhoenixFirestone no problem ^.^ i know, when you first start with sims 2 movie making, it can be such a hassle, and its even mroe difficult when you have so many questions that go unanswered. im glad i helped you ^.^

[QTValeria]

@MissDinosaur100 check my sims 2 downloading & moviemaking help, gunmods thingy is in the video!

[PhoenixFirestone]

What Sims game exactly do you need to make Sims Machinima becuase I dont really know what Expansion packs are so i'm kind of lost here lol

[QTValeria]

@PhoenixFirestone you could just go with the original sims 2 game, but adding expansion packs will bring more interactions and things to do with your isms. and expansion packs are addons to the game, but you must have the original sims 2 for it to actually work.

[NerdiinGlasses]

Hey AWESOME VIDEO!!! It helped ALOT!But, i have one tiny question...At the end of the video the sims were cuddling in the grass...how do you do that?!?!?!?

[QTValeria]

@NerdiinGlasses it comes wiht apartment life i think....

you just do cuddle in the grass, or gaze at the stars...something like that.

[NerdiinGlasses]

@QTValeria oh cool thanks :) how come all the cool stuff comes with apartment life?? the ONE game I don't have??

[QTValeria]

@NerdiinGlasses lmao xD but apartments is a good buy, especially if you just play, i got lots of drama going on between apartmens ;D i need freetime though, i heard its coool :D

[NerdiinGlasses]

@QTValeria Oh cool i need freetime too! i borrowed it from my friend (SUPER RICH BTW! She has like EVERY Sims2 AND Sims3 Game!!!) and it was awesome!!!! and once i get my NEW LAPTOP I plan on begging for the game :D

[001FredRox100]

@NerdiinGlasses it says i dont have permision to access the modthesims hacks and cheats :( what do i do and i have an account but i cant do anything

[NerdiinGlasses]

@001FredRox100 hmm well if you have an account it should work :/ but if it doesn't work try reopening modthesims in a new window or make another account D:

[clumsykhaya]

do you need a good expansion pack aswell to make it really good? or will the sims 2 just do? because i'm really into sims movie making, but it's much harder with the sims 3 so i'm gunna transfer back to the sims 2 so do you think i should buy an expansion pack? I've got nightlifee?

[QTValeria]

@clumsykhaya you could do good with the orginal, but it does help if you have expansion packs. it brings more options and interactions wich makes moviemaking more interesting.

[Heloysa03301999]
