Features I thought came with TS3 or TS4 actually were in TS2!!

I never had all the sims 2 expansions and i started buying them recently. There are a few cool things i liked in ts3 or ts4 i thought began with those games, but it was actually in ts2 the whole time! For example, saving your leftovers in the fridge. I thought that began in TS3. And moving paintings up and down on the wall. I thought that was in TS4. I also recently found out you can even honeymoon in TS2. I ordered Pet expansion combo with garden + h&m stuff and will be happy to play it for the first time and see what else i discover :)

    Ok i mustve thought I read the leftover in my booklet but just checked and its not there.

    The wiki says it came with Seasons. I guess since Freetime was a later EP they included it?


    Quite possibly. And it wouldn't surprise me.

    Putting food in the inventory came in TS2 in the base game. Sometimes, I still do it when I know they have to get to work and shower and eat etc. and I don't have time to make them walk to the fridge to put away the leftovers. But I usually cancel go to work since it's an hour early and let them finish what they are doing before they go to work about five minutes before it's time. lol It's funny to watch them rush out the door like I have in my lifetime, think oh plum, I'm going to be late. lol


    The inventory didn't come with the base game, it came with nightlife and later expansions and stuff packs.

    Cinebar Do you mean putting food in personal inventory or putting leftovers in the fridge?

    I was able to put food in personal inventory but was not able to put food in fridge as leftovers until I got Freetime expansion.


    Putting it in the Fridge you couldn't do until TS2 Seasons.


    I dont have Seasons and I can put it in the fridge. Its also mentioned in my freetime booklet


    They must have just added it in there later on because when there was only like 5 or 6 Expansions i swear there wasn't any way to put the food in the fridge i don't think even in our inventory, or maybe it came with The Sims 4 Digital Base Game which is what they do every game, it came with Happy Festive Stuff all it does is improves Game Stability, now it's Digital Deluxe for TS4.


    Sometimes they include previous EP stuff in later ones for those who didn't when that item wasn't a major part of the previous EP.

    Like LTW's get added with any EP and not just the first one to unlock it.

    Leftovers did come with Season though for the first EP that added it.


    Hi :mrgreen:

    Didn't they usually update somethings for sharing on the Exchange? Like they had to update everything which pets could use. That was when a lot of CC had to be updated for the new game engine. Not because they wanted to share some minor game parts but for Major game engine stuff. :)

    Like I can have just the base game installed but once I add a later Stuff pack I get any major game updates from the expansions between. Like added neighborhood sub slots at the top but not the neighborhoods, or seeing the neighborhood from within the lot, or adding food to the fridges.

    ....
    I like the LTWs which came with TS2 and getting a new ltw when it's fulfilled, which came with later eps. :)
    I do miss the friends handshake which came with the base game. I guess it was cut because it was very long. :lol:

    Maybe, but I had two versions of base at one time. One (first with no patches on cd original release) and 2nd ( a year later) with patches (base game patch) built into the cd. I was thinking it was a base game patched inventory on that 2nd cd release around the end of 2004 or 2005.
