    edited June 2018 in The Sims 2
    Mine was probably Fall - In particular I liked the change in lighting outdoors which gave everything a nice warm glow.

      I'm not a fan of winter/snow. I live where we have that but I put up with it to get the other three seasons. I do however LOVE rain. In my mind, it rains more in the spring so I guess that would be my favorite. I love thunder storms and when it rains on my sims, I turn the volume up loud. But like the others, that dang penguin was so adorable. I had a child sim go out there to pet it one day on her own.

      I liked them all, not spring so much because so many wants to go on a date, kiss, flirt etc. That one sometimes gets on my nerves. No, you are a monk stop wishing for that stuff. :p But I would say fall and summer storms. It fits my play style to have dead leaves everywhere, and a big lightning storm. I like to make them use the fireplaces as soon as it's the first day of winter. >:)

      Spring -- I don't like having to worry about my Sims getting overheated or cold if they stay outside, and fall's leaves make it a bit of a chore. Granted, if I do a perimeter fence (even just a floor divider) around a tree, it won't spawn leaves, but it took me a couple of years to figure out that trick... :tongue:

      Mostly spring/summer. Those are the least problematic for me. Fall is OK chiefly for increased skill building, but the leaves can be a nuisance. I live in a part of the country where winter is the dominant season, and I don't like it. So I take full advantage of the ability to customize the seasonal pattern of each world according to the 'feel' of one. Strangetown is all summer, apart from 1 of fall or spring to reflect a brief somewhat cooler period. Veronaville, having a Mediterranean feel, gets two summer slots, one fall, one spring. That sort of thing.

      Summer, or whenever it's warm enough for the sims to wear their everyday clothes. I'm way too lazy (or poor) to buy new outerwear for my sims, so during winter all my sims look silly wearing clothes that don't suite them at all.

      I've only recently learned about all the different effects on the sims' relationship and skill building etc. during different seasons. And I've been playing Sims 2 for about 10 years... should've read that manual as a kid :D.

      Hi @Francais411

      They are from the wonderful 2 creator criquette but make sure you read everything properly as you will also need to install ‘Better Nightlife’ Mod which is detailed halfway down the page on the link below..

      I like all seasons, they all have their positives and negatives. But as someone who loves to let their sims do gardening and no money cheats, fall is great for getting new ... uhm what's it called? The thing that later becomes dirt/soil. English is not my first language, but anyway, new material for my sims to spread on their plants. Lots of leaves to gather up and use later ~~~ But spring/summer is best for those who yet haven't been able to afford a green hours.

      Fall! It's my favorite season in real life and I'm always tempted to just set the weather to fall all four seasons. In one of my current 'hoods, I have it set to Fall-Spring-Fall-Spring because those are the seasons I like the most. Less chance of burning or freezing. Also how I feel in real life, haha.

      Just like in real life I adore spring and fall, but also like winter a tiny bit too. I hate summer and heat and am going crazy at the moment because the heat is insane in Sweden right now. It is winter time in my s2 game now and I am jelaous lol.
