DESCRIPTION:

Zencat the Omnipotent by Simslice.com!
Buy Mode Price:  200
Buy Mode Category:  Decorative --> Sculptures
Enabled for use on all lots

Object Description:
Need advice, or a helping hand?  Not sure which way to turn?  "Consult Zencat" and he will bring you tidings of great joy.... or uh, .... something....  You may get a blessing, but be careful about how playful cats can sometimes be.  There are over fifty (50) possible gifts and outcomes -- some good, some bad and some just plain odd.  You can also "Pay Tribute" to get certain mood boosts (...unless Zencat is feeling a little too "catty"...).  Unlike our TS1 version, you can also "Meditate" -- take on a yoga pose and freeze all of your mood bars (no decreases) for as long as you stay in that blissful zen state of being.  This download is made to work in any version of The Sims 2 game.  This cat is a really fun addition, and I hope you enjoy it! :)

GAMEPLAY NOTES -- PLEASE READ:

*****************************************************************************
*****************************************************************************

1)  Yes, there are many surprises.  Actually the whole Zencat concept is based on surprises.  In addition, depending upon how grumpy your Sim is, you might see the surprise "Taunt" interaction appear.  Technically, it should appear after your Sim's mood level drops below the "0" midpoint (or if their Nice Points are 2 or less).  There are a variety of ways to taunt zencat and this feature is available for Children up through Elders.  Even this surprise has a few surprises in it too.  But what does it do?  What can it mean?  Hmmmmm...... one way to find out....  ;)

2)  The "Meditate" option will not be available for swimming Sims.  Once they leave the pool, it will become available.  Sims do not need to approach Zencat to do this, they will Meditate wherever you want them too.

3)  MAKING VIDEOS, STORIES OR HOUSES (TEMPLES):  Zencat in TS1 was so well received, we couldn't resist making a (better) version for TS2.  I really think this adds a new (albeit sillier) level of gameplay to the game that was not previously available.  If you make any videos, stories or Houses/Temples involving Zencat, we would REALLY LOVE to see them, so if you feel like it, please feel free to send us a note (or a link) for it, to our address:

help@simslice.com

If we like it and if you want us to, we could even post it on our site where our other guests & visitors can enjoy it too (with credit to you of course, unless you prefer anonymity).  :)

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.
