Thank you for downloading from SIMSLICE! :)

Please do not copy, clone, hack, sell, distribute to others or post on other sites.  If you have questions about anything, or if you obtained this from somewhere other than Simslice, please send an email to help@simslice.com.  Thanks, and enjoy! :)

NOTE:  Sims 2 content is not compatible with the previous The Sims "1" original game.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

UPDATE:  Updated the file to work with the The Pets expansion pack, if you have it.  If you don't, it doesn't matter because this object also works with any version of The Sims 2.

Unzip and put ONLY ONE file ending in ".package" into this folder: 
C:\..\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads
Or if you are a frequent downloader, it might help you organize your downloads better if you created a new folder and named it "Simslice", like this:
C:\..\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads\Simslice

(Note:  The "Downloads" folder is not created when the game is installed, but only when the auto-installer from the game is first used.  So if you don't have this "Downloads" folder or if you are new to downloading, simply create the folder in that location (spelled exactly the same - use the capital "D"))

DESCRIPTION:

The Electric Bod-Mod!
Buy Mode Price:  357
Buy Mode Category:  Electronics --> TVs & Computers
Statistics:  Room 7; Alter Fitness
Enabled for use at-home and on all away-from-home lots
Works with any version of The Sims 2 game

Object Description:

This flat panel machine will allow you to alter the body types of your Sim, or all other Sims if you choose.  Works best on family members but not always on guests.  Body modification options include "Fit", "Fat", and "Average".  The battery backup will allow this computer to function even if the power is out.

GAME PLAY INFO:

If you click on the "Info" pie menu option in the game, it will provide you with some quickie info about this object.

The Fitness Meter (body type) of your Sim can be found in Play Mode in "Simology", just under the "Sim Bio".

This object is a flat-panel wall device and although it functions at night, it will not emit light in a dark room.  Also like most wall hanging objects, if you drop your walls it will seem to "disappear".  But it didn't - just raise your walls back up and you'll see it.  It's the same way with pretty much wall-hanging objects in the game, such as paintings, curtains, windows, etc.

If you have The Sims 2 University expansion pack installed, the remote control will have much better animations and sounds.  If you don't have an expansion installed, it will sound similar to a phone handset.

Anyone from Teens through Elders can use this object (and be affected by it).  Guest and Visitors don't really seem to be affected much but all family members are.  Children can use the "Info" feature but that's all.

If your Sim already has the body type you have selected, then nothing will happen (for example, if your Sim is fit already and you select "Fit", no changes will be made).

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.
