How To Create Your Own Custom Radio Stations In The Sims 2

[TheRealHumMyName]

Erm, Why do you need freetime?

I have custom radio stations without freetime? O-o Im confused now

[CalmaKim]

@TheRealHumMyName It only worked for me if I had FreeTime installed :s

I'm now confused too! What expansions do you have installed?!

[TheRealHumMyName]

@CalmaKim I have all of them except Open for Business and Freetime.

>.<

[muchamariam1]

[thepitifulparty]

Hey there! How can i get my ITUNES music to play on the Sims 2? Because those are mpeg files not mp3 files....:/ is there a way i can make those mpeg into mp3? thanxx

[zeldaxmario10]

@thepitifulparty you need to download a file converter. just type in on google 'mpeg files to mp3 converter' and you should find and downlod a program there! it worked for me :)

[Daytripperyeah89]

[SammiGoRawr16]

I did all this but my music isn't shoing up in the Sims 2 audio folder it's supposed to. Can someone please help?

[CalmaKim]

@SammiGoRawr16 :/ I'm not sure why to be honest :/ Do you mean when you drag the mp3s over?

[TheOrk1234]

[JPM2875]

I hated the games Metal station so I just imported some of my favorite metal music and made my own station which I will listen to forever now :)

[077Cuddles]

wow thanks sims is more fun now

[BrocxMalaak]

You don't need FreeTime btw. This works with Double Deluxe. :) Just a heads up

[CalmaKim]

@BrocxMalaak Ahh, thanks mate :') <3

[hariz13may]

Howcome I don't have that create a radio station option ? :o

[CalmaKim]

@hariz13may You might not have one of the expansion packs D: I think you might need FreeTime

[futureTFBdunker]

you rock :)

[RAWANGALAL]

Thanks soooooo much, it really worked <333

[RobinSmithBenitez]

The Ting Tings <3

[SkyBlueHearts]

Thank you, I read an entire thread of people arguing about who would make a tutorial for this only for them all to decide that you couldn't apparently do it.

So this was very helpful n__n

[CalmaKim]

@SkyBlueHearts Oh gosh Haha, you're welcome and have fun :3

[MsSimsfreak21]

mine doesnot work? i dont knw y but i am just blank! HELP ME!

[Hentaifandu24]

Dakota - stereophonics ahh this make me remember PES 2010 Pro Evolution Soccer 2010

wait a sec at loading wtf was that STOPPING TO SMELL THE FLOWERS ? OMG an island called YouTube

[CalmaKim]

@Hentaifandu24 Haha, I love the song :3

Yeah, Sims like to add in the little jokes in the loading screens, it's always weirded me out haha

& I created it just for the Youtube videos I made :D

[GinnyAmelia99]

@CalmaKim Making a special neighbourhood for the videos is a great idea. I had this neighbourhood called Movie or something like that - it's still empty. (Because I didn't have a youtube membership when I made that neighbourhood, now it's gone.)

[MetroidHunter50]

Apparently I can see that you have all expansions

[CalmaKim]

@MetroidHunter50 You see correctly :)

[OreoXDiamond]

thank you! this helped me out :)

[CalmaKim]

@OreoXDiamond Yay :D Hope you have fun x

[BoZiE60lol]

did you build those houses?

[CalmaKim]

@BoZiE60lol Yep :) I have some building videos too,

[Sabribri94]

thnx

[Pandysblue]

I dont have a music folder :S The only thing I can find is a sound folder in the TSData+Res+Sound. D you know what I should do?

[AnarchistGoth]

I love your accent!

[CalmaKim]

@AnarchistGoth Thanks :3

[MsAleje4]

thank you !

[viperpoison96]

u dont need free time i dont think.

i did this with out free time by just createing a folder called music that unlocked all the sub folders.

i might be crazy but hey :P 

[CalmaKim]

@viperpoison96 You may be right :3

[simsxsims]

Okay, thanks :D ! I will see what will happen.

[simsxsims]

how did you do it ? O.O To me it says like when it starts to install :: windows 7 can't hold sims 2 bla bla something like that. Can you help me ? D:

[CalmaKim]

@simsxsims For me it's fine but you could try right clicking your shortcut to the game and going on properties. then go on compatibility and on the drop down menu go to windows xp service pack three and go on apply and okay it. it may work then but im not 100% sure

[simsxsims]

I wish I had sims 2 again ... I can't install it on widows 7 ...

[CalmaKim]

@simsxsims I switched back to sims 2 from sims 3, and I use windows 7 o:

There's a way round to installing it, i'm sure of it :)

[lovewolves123]

@simsxsims I managed to :S

[Tyler909129]

Thanks for helping, I love you accent by the way :D

[CalmaKim]

@Tyler909129 You're very welcome :) and thank you :D

[RockerGal5404]

the custom radio button that u have under the adio tab isnt there on my sims game...do i have to have mansion and garden?

[CalmaKim]

@RockerGal5404 I think its the free time expansion pack you need, im not so sure D: btw thanks for subscribing :) x

[RockerGal5404]

@CalmaKim oh ok thank you!

[supermonicamadison]

what if you don't have sims2 mansion&garden?

[CalmaKim]

@supermonicamadison I think you could still do it

[gp75motorsports]

@supermonicamadison Yeah, it doesn't matter what EPs or SPs (expansion packs or stuff packs) you have, you'll still be able to do it that way.

[AndrewRockstarTv]

you sound like this chick from King of the hill... lmao.

[happymusic98]

YEAAAAA 3:06

[CalmaKim]

@happymusic98 HAHA I never realised how I said it! XD

[ChipmunksxRule]

What are your computer specs and what expansions and stuff packs do you have? :D

[CalmaKim]

@ChipmunksxRule Ermm I'm not sure it was my old laptop, hp dv6500

and I have all of them besides bathroom and interior stuff and family fun :D

[jayjayteam]

EA gays?

[CalmaKim]

[stephen99txc]

Can you keep a radio station and still completely make a new station, or is the station overwrited?

[CalmaKim]

Thanks for the tutorial

[CalmaKim]

Mine is core 2 duo :P

It's because when I use my screen recorder while playing sims windowed, it lags a lot more than it should
