Re: Playing in window instead of full screen
I play it that way when I am doing a lot of instant messaging. That way I can chat and play at the same time  Smile

My siggy is telling you that I want tornados in Sims 3. It would be cool and fun, trust me!

It seems easier when I'm on here because actually right now I am on The Sims 2 and talking on here at the same time so it is useful.

You need to add it at the end of the command & don't forget the space. You can see below. That is if your Sims games is in the default location.

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 FreeTime\TSBin\Sims2EP7.exe" -w

I still don't get how you put it in window mode. i've heard of it before, but I can't figure out how to do it.

Mirrors don't talk<br />And lucky for you, they don't laugh<br /><br />When you run from something it only stays with you longer<br />When you fight with something it only makes you stronger<br /><br /><br />&quot;We are soooo gangster, yo&quot;<br /><br /><br />So Stick that in your juice box... and suck it!<br /><br />^^^ just a few funny quotes^^^

You need to change the command line.
Right click on the sims 2 icon on your desktop.
select properties.
change the command line by going to the end and leaving a space and then add -w
then click apply

You can just copy & paste the one two posts up if it is in the default location.
