If you're a Sims 2 fanatic, you've probably gotten tired of hearing the same wordless tunes over and over again. Before you turn down your speakers, or turn the sound off altogether, try the following trick and your Sims will be able to play music while you're playing the game. Crank up the stereo, invite the neighbors and your Sims can groove to everything from Metallica to Mozart.
Instructions
1. Open the file, "MyDocuments\EAGames\Sims2\Music."
2. Double-click the folder of the radio station you want to play your music on.
3. Drag your MP3 files to the folder you've selected.
4. Start Sims 2. In the neighborhood view, click on the "Options" icon. Then click on the "Audio Options" icon. Once the menu opens, choose the radio station your songs were stored on. All the songs that will play on that station are listed, choose your songs by clicking the circle next to the song title. Un-check any titles you do NOT want to play on that station. Close the menu by clicking on the "Audio Options" icon again.
5. Enter your Sim's lot. If your Sim does not own a radio, purchase one from the "Buy" menu. Direct your Sim to turn the radio on by clicking on the radio and selecting "Turn On."
6. Switch your radio to the correct station by clicking on it again and choosing "Switch To." The different stations will appear. Choose the station your songs are stored on and the radio will begin playing your stored music.
