Previous expansion packs introduced the concept of a Lifetime Aspiration: a single lofty goal representing that individual's deepest desire which, if fulfilled, would put the character into a fantastic mood for the remainder of his or her life. FreeTime extends that same concept to characters who may not have realized their single greatest desire, but have successfully satisfied many dozens, or even hundreds of smaller ones over the course of their lifetimes.
The Lifetime Aspiration Meter is a graduated bar appearing beside each character's Mood and Influence bars which collects Aspiration Points from every individual Want the sim is able to satisfy. If sims are ever fortunate and long-lived enough to fill up the entire bar, they will achieve the same "Platinum Mood" for the remainder of their days. Including the Secondary Aspiration, there are a total of sixteen possible perks.
Aspiration Perks Rather than being an all-or-nothing proposition, the Lifetime Aspiration Meter grants special benefits for passing ten marked milestones along the way. Each rise in rank gives the character an Aspiration Point which can be spent in one of four different areas. Perhaps the most interesting is the ability for sims to gain access to an additional pool of Wants and Fears by selecting a secondary Aspiration to pursue.
Though the pull of this additional Aspiration is never quite as strong as the original, blending different sets of desires together results in a much wider variety of character personalities.
Aspiration Points can also be spent to slow the deterioration of the Need bars, improve job performance, or unlock perks specifically related to their Primary and Secondary Aspirations. Fortune-seeking sims, for example, can gain the ability to earn money by offering financial advice over the internet, while Knowledge sims can vastly boost the speed at which they pick up new Skill points. Aging A significant drawback to the aging system in The Sims 2 has been that while player-created families would age over time, the unplayable NPCs populating the neighborhood districts would stay eternally unchanged.
From the player's perspective, the children in their sim's homes would age through their teens and into adulthood while remaining pals with the same ten-year olds they befriended in grade school. With FreeTime installed, sims graduating from one life stage to the next have the option to bring up to three of their friends along with them. This means that kids can potentially make NPC friends in elementary school who keep pace with them all the way into the twilight years of old age.
Miscellaneous Additions Five new careers paths: Architecture, Dancing, Entertainment, Intelligence, and Oceanography New activities for toddlers, including the ability to learn nursery rhymes and an activity table where they can doodle and play with blocks Characters with high Lifetime Aspiration Meters and strong enthusiasm in their hobbies may receive three wishes from a special NPC Thrifty sims can save time and money by storing leftover food in the fridge to eat later A new pre-made neighborhood named Desiderata Valley, complete with new homes, NPCs, and playable families Trivia In late May , EA released a patch for FreeTime which rendered the game completely unplayable for a great many users.
The problem lay in an unadvertised "update" to the game's SecuROM copy protection which caused it to refuse to load the game due to an "emulation software conflict" even if no such software had ever been installed on the system and the game was being run directly from the retail disc.
Users who contacted SecuROM directly were provided with a link to a fixed copy of the game's executable file, and EA quietly published an updated patch with the fix about two weeks later.

This subhobby dabbles with hobby objects, and may even own some, but spends most of their time reading online content about the hobby to turn around and blog about the same.
Hi Cindy. Love your content. How do you make the predestined hobby light up green? Mine always lights up white which is really hard to see against the clean UI background. I use a mod called Clean UI. Thanks for this post! Sorry for the unrelated side comment but do you perhaps know why could my game not read wall-decor recolors?
Glad to help! No, I have no idea why that would happen. Is it ALL wall decor or just a certain one you downloaded? If not, I would try reinstalling CEP. I downloaded the Bussiness signs you linked on your Pleasantview Career Services Center building among a few other recolors of the same kind from different creators but none work. Huge Lunatic and others have all made a bunch. Notify me of follow-up comments by email.
