Good job Numenor! I don't think it's to expensive! (Mainly because some of my houses are worth over 1,000,000 I can always, use the motherlode cheat!) And I wonder, if there are so many things hidden into the game, who knows how much stuff was left out that wasn't in the game files? Anyways, great job, and looking forward to more lost objects!

Wow, I wonder how many more objects are hidden in the game files. I know there were several objects in the early screenshots that we never got in the game, so I wonder if those are there somewhere. Plus, there were a few hairstyles that were in screens, and in photo album pics that aren't in the game, and I'm wondering if they're just hidden. The one I really want is the hair Brandi Broke and Dina Caliente had as kids.

Yeh, and Irma Oldies hair, and do you remember that zebra couch from TS1? Well that was in one of the early screens. Hmmm..... I wonder. Thanks Numenor.

Yeah, wonder why maxis didnt put those hairstyles in the game? They're great. I quite like the hair that Beau Broke has when he grows into a child too.
It would be so cool if someone could find them :nod: (It wont be me though, i have no idea how to make custom content or anything like that)

I think you should be a spy for the CIA, you're so good at 'finding' hidden things. Thanks!

Hmmm.... Perhaps Numenor is employed by Maxis to "find" these easter eggs for us. Hmmmmm..... I wonder.....

I doubt Maxis wanted us to find any of the locked files. I'm sure they had their reasons for locking them (they might not be good reasons) but I can't figure out why they would leave them in the game files, unless they forgot to take them out.

This one, in particular, seems nothing more than a joke, or a "cameo"; other "hidden" objects are not actually hidden, but are rather objects created for the Create-a-sim screen (paintings, lamps and so on). And then there are objects, like the Numica 2x2 table that were discontinued and no one ever though of removing them from the package files, (which leads me to think that Maxis is not concerned at all about us modder finding them...).

Probably the only objects that Maxis didn't want us to find or use are the "hacked" test objects: but for the only reason that they can actually damage your game.

That hair is hiden in create a sim if you didn't know that. A true hair mesh that maxis didn't include is that hair of the mom in that New Generation movie for the sims 2.

Why Doesn't maxis get an Artist Aspiration in the sims 2 for the PC like in the PS2, Gamecube, X-box, and Handheld games.

Waukeshatony, can you please post a screenshot showing Beau's hair? "My" Beau Broke has raised and died long ago, and I don't remembember how he looked as a child...

As for the *female* hair styles, I've checked all the meshes in the game, and I couldn't find any that are missing from the CAS catalog; so, the hair shown in Maxis screenshots may have been stripped away.
