INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Unzip and put any 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"))

Wilson, the volleyball "friend" inspired from the movie Castaway starring Tom Hanks (circa 2000), is now available to befriend your Sims!

GAME PLAY INFO:

Sims can talk with Wilson about a variety of topics, ranging from palm trees, island fruit and other similar interests.  

Four different versions are available - the white ball with red stain is the regular version.  Black ball and green stain versions also available.  Black volleyballs are meant to be dirtier versions and the green stained volleyballs are meant to go with alien families who just might not have red blood.  Dirty volleyballs do not have any dirty scores.

When Wilson is on a surface (like a counter), some options will not be available.  Put Wilson on the ground and you'll have the full array of options.

The "Play" feature is only available if your Sim has a Fun score < 90.  Also if your Sim's Social score is really high, expect very short conversations.

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.
