Pick everything from their paws to their personality. Choose from dozens of popular dog and cat breeds like Schnauzer and Siamese. Or create a unique cat or dog by modifying their features and body type. Your Sims can teach their pets tricks, take them for a romp in the park to meet other furry friends, or buy them toys, beds, and much more. But pets have minds of their own-so expect the unexpected! '' ''Head outdoors for year-round fun with your Sims! New seasonal activities await your Sims including snowball fights, chasing fireflies, jumping in leaf piles, and more. Strengthen family ties in Winter, let romance bloom in Spring, deepen the bonds of friendship in Summer, or fast-track your career in Fall. Your Sims can now explore new careers and master new talents throughout the year, but beware freezing, heatstroke, sneezing, and other unexpected weather effects! Dress your Sims appropriately or face the consequences!'' ~~==Riverblossom Hills==~~ ~~{{Main\|Riverblossom Hills}}~~ Riverblossom Hills is a new neighborhood shipped with ''The Sims 2: Seasons''. Its main theme is a countryside-theme, where most houses are decorated with country theme and lots of them have gardening area. This little town also has unique seasonal progression, which is Winter, Winter, Spring, and Fall, with no Summer. The neighborhood features a few community lot, one of which contains an ice skating rink. ==New Features== ===Pets=== ~~[[Image:300px-InSeasonFlyer~2.jpg\|thumb\|right\|Promotion flyer]]~~ {{Main\|Pet}} ~~===Seasons===~~ ~~{{Main\|Weather}}~~ Season is now the part of gameplay. Seasons can be set individually for each neighborhood from Season Chooser. The Season Chooser determines what seasons is allowed to be present in the neighborhood. There are 4 seasons; [[Spring]], [[Summer]], [[Fall]], and [[Winter]]. Each season has its own benefit and uniqueness, nourishing the gameplay and storyline. ===~~Weather~~Pet Training=== Weather adds more realism as an occurrence of [[precipitation]]. Weather also determines whether the outdoor is cool, warm, too hot, or too cold. The precipitation also occurs unpredictably, making every day is not the same day. Is it safe enough to play when there's no hail outside, or are the crops not overwatered by the recent rainstorms; all is controlled by the weather. Sims can check the weather forecasting from TV or newspaper. When the weather is too cold, Sims wear new type of clothes, [[Winterwear]]. ===~~Temperature~~Pet Career=== There are 2 kinds of [[temperature]]; Sims' internal temperature and outdoor temperature. The outdoor temperature controls how fast Sims' internal temperature will change whether they are doing interactions or not. Unlike outdoor temperature, Sim internal temperature is different from each Sim. Sims who are too cold from playing [[snow]] can get freezing and Sims who are too hot from drinking hot chocolate in the middle of the Summer can get heatstroke. ===~~Gardening~~Obtaining a Pet=== Sims can now do real [[gardening]]. Fertilize plots, plant crops, water plants, tend garden, and finally, harvest the fruit. Gardening no longer only pulling the weeds and cutting the hedges. Gardening is also a way to earn money. As a reward of the hard work, Sims may join the [[Garden Club]] and earn the benefits. Harvested fruit can also be sold out or made [[juices]]. ===~~Fishing~~Create-a-Pet=== With ''Seasons'', ponds are now stocked with fish. Sims can [[Fishing\|fish]] if the pond is big and deep enough, and the slope isn't too steep. Sims also gain Fishing [[Talent badge\|Talent Badge]] when they fish long enough. Fish can be cooked, grilled, stocked in the fridge, or hung on the wall. ===~~PlantSim~~Unlockables=== ~~{{Main\|PlantSim}}~~ ===Werewolf=== The new life state introduced in the Expansion Pack is PlantSim. PlantSim is half-Sim and half-plant. As PlantSims, Sims require water, sunlight, and love as their [[Motive (PlantSim)\|needs]]. PlantSim is a gardening master, making them acquire Gold Gardening Badge. They can talk to plants, respectively. PlantSim can spawn spore baby instead of being pregnant and give birth a normal baby. Spawned PlantBaby will eventually grow up into PlantSim. {{Main\|Werewolf}} ==New Additions== '''New Life State''': ~~PlantSim~~Werewolf '''New Lifetime Wants''': Raise 20 Puppies or Kittens, Have 20 Simultaneous Pet Best Friends, and Have 6 Pets Reach the Top Career Level. '''New Deaths''': Death by Lightning, and Death by Hail '''New ~~Careers~~NPCs''': ~~[[Adventurer]]~~Obedience Trainer, ~~[[Education]],~~Animal ~~[[Gamer]]~~Control Officer, [[~~Journalism~~Skunk]], [[~~Law~~Wolf]], and [[~~Music~~Pack leader\|Pack Leader]] '''New [[Radio stations\|Radio Station]]''': Country '''New Lifetime Wants''': Become Space Pirate, Become Education Minister, Become Game Designer, Become Media Magnate, Become The Law, and Become Rock God '''New ~~NPCs~~[[Aspiration reward (The Sims 2)\|Aspiration Reward]]''': [[~~Penguin~~Kibble of Life]] '''New ~~[[Potion\|Potions]]~~Door Lock''': ~~Plantophic-C~~Allow/disallow Pets '''New [[Radio Stations]]''': New Age and Jam Bands '''New [[Talent Badges]]''': [[Fishing]] and [[Gardening]] '''New Meals''': Bass with Squash, Blackened Catfish, Stuffed Rainbow Trout, and Stuffed Golden Trout '''New TV Channels''': Weather Channel '''New [[Aspiration Reward]]''': [[Weathernaught 57X]] ===Minor Features=== With ''[[Open for Business]]'', Sims can run a pet store, using the pet display. Tree leaves will fall on Autumn and needs to be raked. Conifers and cacti won't have falling leaves. Set hairstyle per outfit<ref name="carry forward">This feature is carried forward to later Expansion Pack.</ref>. Sims can now set different hairstyles each for everyday outfit through winterwear. Pets don't have internal temperature. Stackable inventory<ref name="carry forward" />. Inventory no longer needs to be scrolled all the way back just to find an apple. With this, same objects will be stacked in the inventory to save the space. ==New Build Mode Additions== [[File:Diagonal roof comparison.png\|thumb\|200px\|Comparison of diagonal and rectangular roof on diagonal room]] Roof Diagonal Room Tool Roof is now a crucial element as part of weather and climate changes. From now, "Indoor Space" is defined not only a room covered by walls, but there also must be roof. Being in a closed indoor will keep Sims away from cold temperature. Roof keeps the elements out, so rain and snow won't get inside house. In addition to Room Tool, the tool to create a square-shaped room without holding the Shift button, the players can use this tool to create a diagonal-shaped room easily. Players can also toggle between Room Tool with this tool by pressing Ctrl+D button. Roof Objects<ref name="carry forward" /> Diagonal Roofs<ref name="carry forward">This feature is carried forward to later Expansion Pack.</ref> Any one-tile objects can now be placed on the roof. Anything; sculptures, chairs, flamingos, end tables, and even arcade machines. With this, decorative roof objects such as weather vane, lightning rod, and solar screen{{vgversion\|TS2:MGS}} can make a nice additions to the roof. The diagonal roof is very handy to cover a diagonal room with roof. Diagonal roof comes with all styles of roof, including hipped, gabled, mansard, and pagoda{{Vgversion\|TS2:BV}} styles. Previously, the only way to cover it is by placing normal roofs over and over which will awkwardly cobble together. Diagonal roof, however, is never used if players use auto-roof button. Octagonal Room Tool This tool simplifies the creation of diagonal room. Instead of dragging the wall 8 times in different sides, players can simply use this tool. By default, the octagonal room will be 3x3 in size. To enlarge and shrink it, press + key and - keys. Players can also rotate the room before building it by pressing < or > keys. Ctrl + E hotkey can be used to toggle the Octagonal Room Tool with walls, half walls, and fences. Flatten Lot Tool<ref name="carry forward"/> The Flatten Lot Tool will level the entire elevation in the lot with the road. Note that the terrain boundaries will still match the surrounding elevation, making the borders sometimes have steep terrain. Any elements that are above a terrain will not be affected, such as foundation, objects, or Sims. This tool technically has the same usage as Level Terrain Tool, but is used to the entire lot without exception. Sledgehammer Tool<ref name="carry forward"/> The Sledgehammer Tool is a very useful tool when players want to delete the entire objects that stack with each others, such as shelves, surface with decorative sculptures, or multiple wall-hanging objects. Pointing an object with this tool will highlight it, making it contrast to see which object will be deleted. For example, clicking a curtain on the wall will only delete the curtain, but if clicking the wall if a window and the curtain is hanging on it will delete all those objects. Rotating Floor Tiles<ref name="carry forward"/> Players can rotate the floor tiles by pressing < or > button. Several flooring requires rotation to be fully decorative, such as floor tiles that only have one direction (sideways only), or corner tiles. Remember to rotate it back to its original direction, because some flooring that has patterns will be jumbled when rotated. Quarter Tiles<ref name="carry forward"/> While selecting a floor tile, press the Ctrl+F hotkey to enable the quarter tiling. Previously, the only way to place half tiles is to build a diagonal wall or fence and place a tile between it. With this feature, players can create floor patterns more easily. Edger Fences ''The Sims 2: Pets'' feature a new fence style that resembles a divider line. These edger fences can be used to delineate when two different floor tiles are adjacent to make a visible divider. Technically, these edger fences are the same as existing low fences which can be stepped on. Multi-tiled objects cannot intersect the edger fences, and because fences are not allowed inside an [[apartment]] slot, these edger fences aren't either.{{Vgversion\|TS2:AL}} ==New Objects== [[Food bowl\|Pet bowls]] ''The Ornery Rooster'' Weather Vane [[Pet house]]s and [[Pet bed]]s ''The Flowy Floater'' Pond Sprinkler ''Kitty Kraze Katnip'' ''"Stuff Me Silly" Scarecrow from McKraken Industries'' ''The Chewinator by ChompCo'' Dog Bone ''EZ120v Lighting Finial'' Pet Display Cases ''Perfect Packets Hot Chocolate Maker'' ''Collar Connection Display'' Collar Rack ''[[Juices\|The Main Squeezer 235X]]'' ''Tropico Avian Sanctuary'' Bird Cage ''[[Wishing well\|Toss ‘n Wish Drinking Well by Gaelic Gardens]]'' ''FMCU 3000'' Hamster Cage Greenhouse ''Mr. Maritime'' Aquarium Gardening Tools ''Beware of Pet Sign'' Curved Edge Swimming Pool Roller and Ice Skating Rinks ==New Interactions== ;Sim-pet based Sims can adopt [[stray]]s anywhere with sufficient relationship. Sims can [[Giving gifts\|give gifts]] from the object in the [[inventory]] to other Sims.<ref name="carry forward" /> Sims can teach pets [[Skill (pet)#Commands\|commands]] to perform, which is essential for their [[Career (pet)\|career]] promotion. Sims can praise or scold to encourage/discourage their [[Skill (pet)#Behaviors\|reinforced behavior]]. Sims can take for a walk with a pet and boost their relationship for as long as they're away. ;Object-based New locking door option. Sims can lock doors to restrict pets from going through. [[Bug collecting\|Bug catching]]. Most objects are modified for pets. These include objects to be chewable/scratchable, slept on, and so on. Sims can pay all bills without having to look for them first. This is useful when the bills are placed somewhere uncharted.<ref name="carry forward" /> Pets will yowl and howl on noisy objects, such as stereo, band objects{{Vgversion\|TS2:U}}, [[DJ booth]], and karaoke machine{{Vgversion\|TS2:NL}}. Sims can store leftovers to the fridge so they wouldn't waste the food.<ref name="carry forward" /> Pets may react to many moving objects or actions, such as [[alien abduction]], RC cars, [[Robotics\|robots]]{{Vgversion\|TS2:OFB}}, resurrection{{Vgversion\|TS2:U}}{{Vgversion\|TS2:FT}}{{Vgversion\|TS2:AL}}, and so on. There are many interactions that can be done with snow, including making snowmen, snow angles, snowball fights, and so on. Cats can jump onto counters, comfort themselves or eat food on it. Toddlers and dogs can eat snow. Small dogs and cats can climb onto bay window{{Vgversion\|TS2:OFB}}{{Vgversion\|TS2:MGS}}, and large dogs can chill in it. Cat can chase butterflies. Adult pets can ride cars and share carpools, but cannot ride helicopter.<ref>If by chance pets return home with a Sim who come home with a helicopter, the jump bug or error will occur and none of them will get paid from work.</ref> Puppies and kittens cannot use stairs, spiral stairs{{Vgversion\|TS2:AL}}, and elevators{{Vgversion\|TS2:OFB}} on their own. Doofus pets are likely to react when they see their reflection in the mirror. Dogs can knock over trash can and dig trash. Sims can only bathe dogs in bathtubs. Dogs can use ''[[Toy Making#Wet n' Wild Water Wiggler\|Wet n' Wild Water Wiggler]]''{{Vgversion\|TS2:OFB}} to raise their hygiene, while cats will avoid it. ==Gallery== ===Images=== <gallery captionalign="left"> P Gallery 1.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen001-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 2.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen002-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 3.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen003-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 4.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen007-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 5.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen004-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 6.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen006-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 7.jpg ~~File:Sims2Seasons screen012-1-.jpg~~ P Gallery 8.jpg ~~File:Thesims2seasons_00.jpg~~ P Gallery 9.jpg ~~4.png~~ ~~3.png~~ ~~5.png~~ </gallery> ==~~Video~~=Audio=== {\|class="wikitable heading-blue" !Track !Real-world preview! \|- \|''The Sims 2: Pets'' Theme \|[[File:TS2 Pets Theme Sample.ogg\|noicon]] \|} ===Videos=== <videogallery> Video:The ~~Sims™~~Sims 2 ~~Seasons~~- Pets Official Trailer\|The ~~Sims™~~Sims 2 ~~Seasons~~- Pets Official Trailer ~~Video:Lily Allen - Smile (in Simlish) - using Sims 2 Seasons\|Lily Allen - Smile (The Sims 2 Season)~~ </videogallery> ==See Also== [[Comparison between The Sims 2: Pets and The Sims 3: Pets]] ==External Links== [http://thesims2.ea.com/about/~~ep5_index~~ep4_index.php The Sims 2: ~~Seasons~~Pets on TheSims2.com] [http://www.diesims.de/products.view.asp?id=45&page_id=523 German EA Special] [http://www.simfantastic2.com/sepreview.htm Sim Fantastic 2] [http://www.thesimsresource.com/article/seasons The Sims Resource] [http://forum.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=messageboard.viewThread&entryID=27867215&groupID=100022302&adTopicID=14 My Space] *[http://www.sims2community.com/ Sims 2 Community] ==Reference== {{reflist}} {{Sims}} {{DEFAULTSORT:~~Seasons~~Pets, The Sims 2}} [[es: Los Sims 2: ~~y las cuatro estaciones~~Mascotas]] [[fr:Les Sims 2: AuAnimaux ~~Fil~~& ~~des Saisons~~Cie]] [[Category:Sims missing a favorite]] [[Category:Sims missing a trait]] [[Category:Sims missing their age]] [[Category:Sims with a non-existent trait]]
