As a regular on some of the Sims 2 WCIF threads, I am always trying to remember what I have and where I got it. Also, I’m such a download-aholic that I periodically purge my entire download folder just to get a fresh start. In doing so, of course I then have to go on a seemingly endless mission to find those mods and downloads I love. So, to save future time and heartache, I begin my list of must-have Sims 2 downloads.
