* '''[http://cyjon.net/node/495 Frame of Preference Fix]''' by Cyjon
** This mod correctly marks the "Frame Of Preference" arch from ''Mansion & Gardens'' as an arch rather than a door. Without this mod, the arch can be "locked", and will make door opening/closing sounds as Sims walk in and out of it.
* '''[http://www.simbology.com/smf/index.php?topic=8588.0 Get Parents Fix]''' by Cyjon
** The "Get Parents" function is used by the game to find the parents of a toddler, child, or teen. The function is often called to decide who a toddler will follow, who a child cheers at when they get an A+, who NPCs decide who to interact with, and who the butler decides is his "employer".
** The problem? The function is buggy and broken - right from the base game! For instance, if only one parent is found, it leaves garbage data in the second slot. EAxis tried to fix the bug in ''Apartment Life'' but just made it worse. If you play without adults (such as the [[Newson Family]]), it's a pain with this bug, as it would put a random object in the second slot, so you have toddlers thinking a street light is their mother, a child cheering at a bush, and the butler thinking he's employed by a car!
** This mod fixes all of these bugs, in addition to fixing another quirk. In the default game, the function would always favor one parent more than the other. The parent it favors usually has a lower NID number (usually the first parent created), so one parent would be followed more, cheered at more, etc. This mod resets that to 50/50, so both parents have an equal chance of being picked.
* '''[http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=189428 "Is Chair a Booth" / "Is Sofa a Sectional" global patches]''' by Inge Jones
** This mod allows the game to recognize cloned booth chairs and sectional sofas as such.

** The "Read to sleep" interaction that an older Sim can do with a child was... broken. This fix disables the interaction in which it would cause an error. You should be able to place children's beds diagonally without running into the bug.
** An alternative to this (especially if you find the interaction to be the most irritating in the world, with completely random adults with 0/0 relationships trying to read random kids to sleep, would be to use [http://www.simlogical.com/sl/Sims2Pages/Sims2_Sleeping.htm this mod] by Simlogical, which disables the interaction entirely. You can also try [http://cyjon.net/node/406 this mod] by Cyjon which adjusts the interaction so it's less annoying.
* '''[http://www.simbology.com/smf/index.php?topic=8592.0 Restocking Skill Bonus]''' by tunaisafish
** Talent badges can be gained faster depending on the skill level of the Sim, as follows:
*** Mechanical - Toy Making, Robotery, Fishing
*** Charisma - Gardening, Sales
*** Body - Stocking and Restocking
*** Logic - Cash Register
*** Creativity - Pottery, Sewing, Flower Arranging
*** Cleaning - Cosmetology
** ...but guess what? EA forgot to implement the Body skill check when Restocking, which is why it seems to take FOREVER to gain the talent badge, to the point you may as well use a hacked object to give him an instant Gold badge. This mod fixes that.

** Balances the absurdly biased [[hobby|hobbies]] in ''FreeTime''. The mod is broken up into different parts, to which you can download and install individually, to match your tastes:
