Links no longer work.

I have not tried the link for Sims 2 but the Sims 1 link works and I have Sims 1 running on my Windows 11 machine without any problems so far.

Hey if anyone downloads this let us know if it is working please.

Downloaded it and its best to be a clean install on a computer that never had Sims 2 game on for best results, can be done but you must clean out all of the old game first.

Wow, so much nostalgia from seeing the website layout alone. I sure do miss the old Sims 2 website! Anyways, I also recommend for anyone who is interested in installing TS2:UC to check out osab's set-up guide. They are active on tumblr and you can find links to the set-up guide for Sims 2 along with Sims 1 and Sims Stories on there (or directly on their github). His TS2 guide is oftentimes recommended on reddit as well.

I was trying to download the TS1 Skins but it looks like they're unavailable?

EDIT: I can download them on mi iPhone but not on PC (Firefox)

I also use FireFox, and find it sometimes won't work for different links or sites. Especially box links.

Try a different browser, paste in the link, and it may well work. I go to GoogleChrome when Firefox won't open something.

Just tried on Chrome and I got the same error ("This content is no longer available.") but yet on Safari on the phone works lol thank you for the tip anwyay!

EDIT: I've sent them over through my phone but still I'm unable to open them on the laptop, most of the .exes are classified as virus... It's a shame I couldn't find all of them on sims1depot. Hopefully someone has reuploaded them elsewhere

May just be a setting somewhere, or maybe an addon, although I have no idea which one. I've got Firefox, and it seems fully capable of redirecting most Box links, and even manages to fix other links as well (it's even been fixing links for my site that lead to the old host name, which went down some years back - seems to take a lot of trouble for it to not redirect to the proper thing these days. Sometimes I don't even notice if a link is "broken" for everyone else )

Anyway, best trick for downloads that don't work is to copy/paste a working link and splice it together with the number at the end for the non-working link wherever it fits. Works most of the time with Box, Simfileshare, Mediafire, and in other cases where you're getting broken links where there's an ending/number (old insim links, old MTS links...)

Managed to download the skins, had to open each link through the wayback machine I'm keeping a backup for the future (just in case)

Doesn't work.

If you want help with it, then elucidate, please.

The /r/sims2help wiki on reddit has a working torrent for the game, you can get it there if you need it.

@SneakyWingPhoenix EA has been very busy removing all of the installation uploads for Sims 1 and 2 (even on the Internet Archive) since the Legacy Editions were released.

Does anyone know if that's Osab's version, or is it just the plain old UC?

Not sure what you mean, since the osab version was the UC. It doesn't come with osab's installer, if that's what you mean, it has a slightly different custom installer.

Yes, that's what I meant, sorry. Thank you for clarifying.

Yeah I figured, as the link didn't seem to redirect to the files. All the base game physical copies I purchased second hand seem to be worn down I don't even want to touch Legacy Edition knowing the changes and half-arse for the asking price EA has "fixed" in the release. It's my pet peeve how harder it gets to be able to attain and get a running game the more years go by.
