DESCRIPTION:

Mentor (for Adults)

Buy Mode Category:  Electronics

Enabled for use at-home only
Works with any version of The Sims 2 game

Object Description:
The ultimate career "booster"!  This is similar to our Electronic Mentors made for the original Sims game.  Adult Sims can strap on The Mentor and choose from all 100 of the original jobs that came with the Sims 2 game. You click on the career path, then click the job title... and get it instantly!  Shocking and amusing animations and sounds occur while you get the job of your dreams.  Safe to use, but draining, so rest your Sim afterwards. You can also select "Homemaker" to become unemployed.  The electrical impulses may curb their appetites too, giving a hunger boost -- so Sims can rest right up to the last minute without worrying about having to slam down a breakfast before the carpool leaves.

Updated April 2005 with better graphics and to be more compatable with the new Sims 2 University expansion pack:  Basically, if you have the University expansion pack, you can also now get any of the 40 jobs that came in that too, and you don't need that pesky college degree to get them.  If you don't have the expansion, you'll still have access to the 100 original jobs as before.

ADDITIONAL GAMEPLAY NOTES:

JOB NOTE:  The Mentor will instantly get you any of the 100 jobs in the Sims 2 game, but it's up to your Sim to keep it.  If their skills are below par for the job, it might reflect poorly on their Job Performance later on.  So keep working on those skills so you don't lose your cushy new dream job (... or just keep using the Mentor again and again to reclaim it...). ;)  It also will not affect job "wants" or "fears" (if applicable).

SHOCKING NOTE:  One of the visual "shock" effects is a body-sparkling effect.  This is a standard effect that came with the game, so you may know about what I'm about to write:  if you play the game at higher speeds, the sparkling effect may not be removed from the Sim even after the shocking animations are complete.  To prevent that from happening, just don't use the Mentor on higher gameplay speeds.  But it's no big deal because even if it happens, just re-use the Mentor (re-take the same job again - at the normal speed) and the effect will be removed.  However some of you might even like to keep the sparkling effect on your Sim for a long while.  So you have that option now too.  It's harmless either way.

ORIGINAL SIMS NOTE:  For original Sims objects (not compatable with The Sims 2 game) that act similarly, check out our MENTOR, MENTOR II, MENTOR III AND SUPERSTAR MENTOR in our Electronic Objects section, currently at:

http://www.simslice.com/Objects-Electronic-pg3.htm
(as of February 2005 - if not on this page, try the next page)

Unlike the original Sims Mentors, this version will not max out friendships or add any skill points.  This is because many requests we received asked us to have those options in separate objects, so that Sims who just want the job but no other major changes can use this.  If you want objects that do that, we recommend our "Friendship Candles" and our "Love Crystal Candles" for on our Sims 2 Objects page.

NEED MORE HELP?:

If you have any questions about downloading, unzipping and installing, please visit our FAQ page which has very detailed instructions at http://www.simslice.com/faq.htm 

Any problems with crashes, freezes or objects not showing up are 99.9% of the time related to either "requirements" not being met, OR a fluke in the downloading/installing process... but it's NOT because of the actual object coding itself.  Check our FAQ page for a very detailed list of these issues and resolutions you can do to resolve them.  Typically the fix is to double check the requirements, and if you meet them, then delete and redownload the item.  Do NOT use Simzip to unzip them.  Further information as previously stated, is detailed on our FAQ page at http://www.simslice.com/faq.htm.  If you still need help after consulting our FAQ page, please contact us and we'll try to help further.
