Controlling a dead Sim

As a dead Sim you can walk through walls and talk to Sims. Terrorize, Wail, and Possess are social options dead Sims can do. Unfortunately you cannot actually possesses Sims out of social mode. These social options have no effect on other Sims, but are funny. You can also challenge the Grim Reaper in fiddle challenge. You have an unlimited number of chances to try this. If you win, your Sim will become alive again. You can also pay the Grim Reaper 100 Simoleons for a Back To Life Ticket.

Food locations

Dangleberries can be harvested in the Sproutch Couch.
Other fruits are harvested on a Frood Tree.
Golden eggs can be received from Chicken Checkers game.
Fish can be harvested from the Manilla 1000 Aquarium
Some vegetables can be harvested from the GenoLife Garden Hutch.

Hidden food
There is more than just the food you can make. For example, there is food that give your skills a boost, food that helps you in love (romance Sims only for their goals), and food not in the list. For example, you can make a pizza.

Free harvested food
Use the following trick if you are in need of food and have very little money. Buy an item that can have food harvested from it. Harvest the food from it, sell it back, then buy another. This will keep you from having to spend money on food. Unless there is more than one sim in your house, you do not have to worry about the other Sim wasting money buying non-harvested foods.

Hunger satisfaction
The more expensive refrigerators carry more foods. They also add a bonus amount of hunger satisfaction.

The more cooking skill you have, the higher the hunger satisfaction.

Hunger is the one need that if left unmet can kill your Sim.

To quickly fulfill your Sim's hunger even with low cooking skills, make a meal using Beef, Pork, Lamb and Potatoes.

If you are low on money and do not have enough to eat, sell your refrigerator, stove, etc. and buy a Fruit Punch Barrel. It will satisfy your hunger about 98%. You can just go to "Drink From Tap" and it will do the rest.

Aphrodisiac effect meal
Ostrich and Passion Fruit; or Carrots, Lime, Pork and Passion Fruit. Most things made with Ostrich or Passion Fruit will have the aphrodisiac effect, although some have a very negative effect (black hearts) that will lower your Sim's mood.

The Harvested Fruits will make your Sims temporarily fall in love so they can make out even with zero Friendship points. They cost nothing to cook. Both Sims must eat the food for this to work.

To create Savannah's Love Potion, get a U-Probe-It Refrigerating Organism Refrigerator and the following ingredients: Orange, Lemon, Cherry, and Strawberry. Use the counter to make fruit. Your Sim will fall in love with another Sim.

Energy boost effect meal
Dangleberry, Yogurt, Strawberries and Cherries; or Ostrich, Eel, Strawberries and Mangosteen (expensive but works the best).

Sandwiches that boost energy (also is a love dish) are Ostrich, Pork, Strawberry, Wheat Bread.

You must have a Fish Tank. Harvest your fish and go to the refrigerator. This will not cost any money. First, get the Shark, Halibut, Eel, and Squid. Go to your stove and make Capriccio. If you do not see that option, eat it raw. You will vomit, but some of your stats will increase. Note: You must take a shower after this because of the vomit. Do not do this just before your carpool arrives because you might not have time to take a shower.

If you are low on money and cannot afford beds for everyone in the house, try this trick. Buy the !!!!Espresso.it.supremo!!!!, which costs 450 Simoleons. Make and drink Espresso until a Sim's Energy meter is full. A Sim will not even need to sleep throughout the game if this is done.

Skills boost effect meal
Chicken, Onions, Eggs, and Milk.

Carrot, Egg, Milk, White Flour. This will give your Sim a +3 boost on all skills, but it will go down after awhile.

To boost all your Sim's stats by 3 temporarily, create a meal using Egg, Milk, Whole White Flour, and Corn Oil. Put it in a food processor, then in an oven. The meal will have sparkles coming out of it. When you eat it, all your stats will be boosted by 3 temporarily.

To boost your Skills to 3+, make a meal that includes the following: Chicken, Carrot, Potato, Eggs. After awhile it returns to normal. It is recommended that you eat this meal before you to go to work. Eventually you must boost the Skill points up a few, but it works until about the third promotion.

Eat a whole plateful of harvested vegetables one hour before you leave for work. They will increase your Skills by 3 temporarily. You should get a promotion provided you have enough friends. You can eat it raw without cooking it. The Harvested vegetables will increase skills by 3 points temporarily and cost nothing to cook.

Sick meal
With any meal you make using Llama, no matter what the effect, any Sim that eats it will vomit.

Make a meal with Green Smoke (repulsive) by using Lamb, Tuna, Corn Oil and Olive Oil.

Make a meal with Black Hearts and Grey Smoke (repulsive) by using Chicken, Turkey, Apple, and Milk.

Super High Octane Shiny meal
Use Ostrich Lemon, Yogurt, and Broth on the stove This meal will have a constant high shine to it when it comes out.

Raising motives
To raise your Social, Energy, Fun and Comfort at the same time, power nap on a couch with a television or radio on nearby and another Sim sitting beside the Sim you are controlling.

The Chess Table can also be a Paper Football Table. Have one Sim try to score on the other Sim by shooting the Paper Football through the other Sim's fingers (like a field goal). This raises Fun.

Buy an Expresso Machine. Three cups of expresso raises your energy level to full. Always buy the bathroom stalls and put them near the Expresso Machine (remove any extra bathrooms). Also buy the Floating Bathtub and put it near the kitchen and toilets. The Floating Tub increases Hygiene, Fun, Comfort, and Social (when another Sim joins you).

Put Stereos all around the house. Whenever your Sim walks by one, their Fun level will automatically start to increase without dancing. Put one in your kitchen, by the restroom stalls, by the hot tub, and by your couch. Even if you power nap, the radio will still increase your Fun level.

To keep your Room motive high, clear out all the interior walls and just have one huge room. Delete any extra bedrooms and bathrooms. You do not need them. No matter how much trash builds up in the house, your room level will always be high. If you are at a house with three or four separate rooms, just connect them all and take down the dividing walls. Make sure to hire a maid or you will live in a sea of trash.

Easy money
When you need some money and own a "Defective Arcade Genie Lamp" you can keep making wishes and you will get money eventually. However, the genie can also cause fire and make all the characters in the area of the lamp to pee themselves if you make him mad. When he is mad he will come out of his lamp with red colored smoke beneath him. However, if he is giving you something good the smoke will be purple or pinkish. It is best to perform this when you first get a house so that you can get your money and not risk losing any items you have purchased. Note: If you talk with the genie, he gives you small advice and hints occasionally.

To earn easy money, find a job in Science. You only need about three friends, level 8 Cleaning, level 4 Logic, and level 6 Cooking to make it all the way to level 8 in your career. Once you get to level 8, you will make over 1,000 Simoleons per day working easy five hour days. You will work from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. If you wish to get promoted, then you must get at least five friends and some skill points must get higher.

Make all the roommates who do not have gold goals get jobs. They will bring in extra money, and usually get promotions easily. There are no consequences if they get fired.

Once finished with a location, sell the wallpaper, walls and floor if you decide not to live there. You will get more Simoleons. Also, sell anything that is yours.

Saving money
Objectives that require buying furniture can be easily purchased on low ends. Just buy it to complete the goal then delete and get your full money back.

Money for goals
When you have a goal, such as to buy a bed worth over 300 Simoleons, and you cannot afford it, simply sell the bed in your house and buy it again.

Selling a good painting
Have high Creativity and be in a good mood to sell a good painting.

Finding buried treasure
A Sim can only use the Metal Detector in direct control mode. It is possible to find money, Dangleberries, monkey idols and bottle caps.

Avoid being fired
If you accidentally miss your ride to work on your second day of missing work, before it says you have been fired, quickly find another job by looking in the newspaper or the Internet. Once you have avoided the call to get fired, you can change back to your previous job without being demoted and getting deducted skill points.

To skip work without getting fired, enable the "Cheat Trophy" and "Advance time six hours" code. When you get the notice that it will be one hour until your carpool arrives, go to the cheat trophy and select the option to advance time by six hours. You will have missed work, but will not get a calling notice and will not get fired for it after extended use.

Skip a few promotions in your job
To be able to skip promotions while applying for a new job, you must first get your Sim (for example, Noel) promoted to the top of a career of your choice (level 10). Then, when applying for a new job with somebody else (for example, Wooster), find the one you chose with your first character. Depending on your relationship with him, you will be able to get a higher level job.

Socialize faster
Have a Sim who is not working throw a party while you are at work. Usually only two Sims will show up for a party. Make them cook a good meal and when the guests show up, they will eat and find entertainment until you arrive home from work. By that time, your guests are in a good mood and be more willing to socialize with you.

In some cases, talking to a new roommate can be difficult and the points will often turn negative. Try this first. Make both of the Sims get in the hot tub together a few times. They will talk and get a few positive points. Once you get to about 10, you will unlock the "Tell a joke" option. Use this repeatedly until you become friends.

Get your Sims into a hot tub and build a wall around them so they cannot escape.

Instead of making your Sim approach the new roommates, switch to the ones you can control and make them talk to your Sim. They automatically start off with the "Tell a joke" option

Do the Woohoo with three Sims
Start with three lovers (preferably ones you can control in the house). Walk your Sim and their lover into the bedroom with the Love Bed then remove the doors. Make your Sim relax then call your lover to join you. Do the Woohoo and replace the door. As your lover gets out of bed, call over your next lover. When the first one leaves and the next one enters, remove the door and do the same thing. All the Sims must be in a good mood for this to work. You can stay in the bed and have three Woohoos in a row without getting out of the bed.

Forced friends
If you need friends, get a Hot Rock Hot Tub, or move to Tranquillity Falls where they already have one. Invite over who you want to be your friends and get them in the hot tub. Then, put objects around it so they cannot get out. Leave them in there long enough and they will become your friends. Note: Get out before your hunger goes all the way down or else they will die.

Keep friends easily
Throw a party once a day. It does not matter who shows up. They will just be happy to come by and hang out.

Helping your roommates make friends
When helping another Sim advance their career, they also need friends (for example, Noel at the Biodome). Move back to a house where you can control three or more roommates and invite Noel over. When he shows up, make the roommates talk to him until they are friends and keep doing this until he has enough friends. Then, move back to the Biodome so that he can continue going to work and getting his promotions.

Know when neighbors pass
When you want to know when there is going to be a neighbor passing your house, look in the street to the far right. When a neighbor is going to appear, you will see the shadow of a person with its arms and legs out on the right of the street.

Getting married
Bring your Friendship up to 80 or 90. If the background is very red and blurry, select "Be on" the socialize menu and go to a bed. Select "Relax" then choose the bed again. Select "Woo whoo" once then press [X] to get out of the bed. Select "Socialize" and if you are in love, select "Propose" and hope that the other Sim says yes.

Getting Betty to marry Nelson
Make them get into the hot tub three or four times before they start talking. While they are in the hot tub, build a solid wall around them so that Nelson cannot escape. Then, have Betty make a plateful of Harvested Fruits and give a plate to Nelson. He must to be in a good mood or else he will not socialize easily. Then use the "Tell a joke" option until you get the "Hit on" option. Then, use the "Serenade" and "Make out" options alternately until you get the "Propose" option.

No friends or money worries
It will be easier if you just get through your career at level 10. Then as you progress through the game, you will not have to worry about making friends or money.

Live by yourself
Get a job for everybody that lives with you. Then, enable the "Advance time by six hours" code and send them to work. Before they come back, enable the "Advance time by six hours" code again. Do this every day before the people come back. Note: You cannot do this when you are a ghost.

Killing your Sim
With a low cooking skill, make a meal with Squid, Llama, Eel, and Fauxlestra. This will make your Sim double vomit, go to the batheroom, then fall over and die.

Go to the refrigerator and select "Get Ingredients". Go on "Harvest Seafood", get one Halibut and one Shark. Then, go to "Harvest Fruit" and get one Mangosteen. Then, go to "Liquids" and get some Juice. Then, select "Done". Do not eat it raw. Select "Make Carpaccio With Fruit Sauce". When made, there should be little hearts coming out of the food. Then, eat. Wait until they have finished all their food,, then your Sim will begin to die. They should first become sick, then wet themselves, then turn into a ghost. Note: You must harvest the fruit and seafood; this is done by getting an aquarium for the seafood and a fruit tree for the fruit. If you do not want your Sim to return to life, do not select the Grim Reaper (which usually arrives about one Sim hour later).

Build a bathroom and invite a Sim over. Wait until he or she enters the bathroom. Go to "Build catalog" and enable remove mode. Remove the door from the bathroom and wait. It is recommended that you advance time by six hours. They will eventually die, and that Sim will not appear any more in the game. If you do with your own Sim, this will not happen.

Secret room
When you want a room where a Sim can just hang out, follow these basic steps. First, make your house simple with a bedroom with beds one square apart against the wall that has the outside on the other side. Then, put a simple closet door between the two beds. Next, make that door go into a room that is 4x4 squares apart. On the opposite side of the closet door, put another door, and cover it up with a tall bureau on one side and a bureau one square in front. Then, make a spooky hallway that leads to a fun, secret room. Finally, put a deck floor for the hallway, rug for the closet, and rug for the hallway. Also, put no lights in the closet or scary lights for the hallway. Do not over stuff the secret room or there will be a fire.

No bills
Make a little 4x4 room and put a fireplace in it. Then, place a bin in front of the fireplace. In the last reaming square you will need to place a door. Afterwards, as fast as possible, quickly get the bills, hold them in your hand, and run in the little room. After awhile the bin will catch alight and so will you eventually. When you die. your bills turn to ash with you. Therefore you will not have to pay them. To return to life, either challenge the Grim Reaper in a fiddle contest or pay him 100 Simoleons. You can find him in the garden near the road after you die.

Go outside and get your bill. Once you get it out of the mailbox, quickly press [X]. Do not fast forward. Just before the bill touches the ground, press [Start]. Buy any chair and place it under your bill. Your bill will disappear. You will no longer have to pay the bill. Sell your chair to get your money back.

Avoid building extra bathrooms
Because the Sims do not share bathrooms, just get the big Floating Tub and Toilet Stalls. By doing this, everyone has a place to "go" without shooing people out of the bathroom. This also cuts down on fire hazards.

Avoid building extra bedrooms
Buy the Expresso Machine and have only a small bedroom with two beds. They will rarely get used. You can also put all the beds into one bedroom. The Sims will not mind. Also, just buy the Twin Beds. If your Sims do not like each other, they will not share a bed.

Avoid needing a dining room table and chairs
Buy one couch and set it close to the kitchen. Your Sims will use it to sit and eat, power nap, read, etc. The Sprouch Couch is recommended, as it provides the most comfort and you can get Dangleberries from it. It also avoids the need for bedrooms as well.

Christmas tree
Delete some walls so the game thinks it is outside. Get a pine tree and put it inside.

Golden egg
Beat the chicken at checkers and he will give you a golden egg.

Love Potion #9
To make a girl/boy accept Love Socials, you can make a potion to make it all easier. First, get an Aquarium, a Garden Hutch, the Frood Tree, the Red Blender, a Food Processor, an Oven, and a refrigerator. Water/feed them everyday for about two to three days. Harvest the food from the items. Go into the Refrigerator and pick these ingredients: Avocado, Starfruit, Persimmon, and Chupa-Chupa. Go to the Food Processor and select "Prep&#133;" or something similar. When you are done using the Food Processor, go to the Oven and cook your dish. Go to the blender and select "Make Slurry" or "Make Smoothie". By now there should be hearts floating around your love potion. Finally, give your love potion to a girl or boy and start doing Love Socials. They will almost always accept it. Note: The love potion only lasts a few hours.

Stay in a hot tub
To stay in a hot tub as long as desired, go to direct control mode and get in. While in direct control, your Sim will not do anything unless you make them. Note: If you stay in for too long, your motives will get very low and your Sim may possibly die.

Glitch: Two gravestones
Occasionally, when you die there will be a glitch that results in two gravestones for your Sim. If you want to live, you will change the creeper, but first be live and practice on a music instrument to get more music from your death. When you come back, you will be half live and half ghost.

Glitch: Fireman, police, and bed
Sometimes when you are outside your house, and save then come back, there will be a fireman. Throw three parties in a row. Sometimes the police will arrive, walk through the house, and leave. When you save the game when you are in bed and come back, you should stand through your bed, then fall over back onto your bed. Note: This does not work all the time. Also, you can only do this in story mode at the first house you start at.
