Secret Forgotten Grotto lot in Oasis Springs:
---------------------------------------------
To enter the hidden Forgotten Grotto lot in Oasis Springs, visit the Desert Bloom park
lot in the Oasis Springs neighborhood. At the park, go far behind the lot to a public
space with a bathroom stall. Then, proceed though the canyon to the left to find a
boarded up cave entrance. Interact with the Mine Cave. Your Sim must have Level 10
Hardiness to break down the wooden barrier and explore inside. To complete the Adventure
Cave, select the options in the following order: "Take The Wide Path", "Climb The Ladder",
"Step Onto The Ledge". You will now be in Forgotten Grotto. This area contains the
following collectibles: Fish, Frog, Lily, Mineral, Mushroom, Onion, Potato, and Sage.
Secret Sylvan Glades lot in Willow Creek:
-----------------------------------------
To enter the hidden Sylvan Glades lot in Willow Creek, visit the Crick Cabana lot in the
Willow Creek neighborhood, and explore the public space next to the house to find a large
tree labeled "Sylvan Tree" with flowers growing out from the sides. Repeatedly click the
tree and select "View" until a door appears. Enter the Tree Adventure mode, and select the
options in the following order: "Follow The Sound", "Follow Downstream", "Enter The Mist".
You will now be in Sylvan Glades. This area contains the following collectibles: Basil,
Bluebell, Cherry Tree, Fish, Frog, Lily, Mineral, Mushroom, Pear Tree, Snapdragon, and
Strawberry.
Growing Cow Plants:
-------------------
To grow the special Cow Plant, you must first acquire a rare Cow Plant seed. They can
be found by traveling to the Desert Bloom lot in Oasis Springs, then move toward the
public space behind the park where there is a rock canyon leading to a boarded up cave
entrance. Along the rock walls are tiny ponds that are the source of the shallow stream.
Fish at this area to eventually get a Cow Plant seed. Once you have a Cow Plant seed,
return to your Sim's home lot. Drag the seed from your inventory onto the ground where
you want to plant it. Once it is planted, make sure to water it daily, and eventually
it will grow to full size. If the mound of dirt at the base turns light brown, it means
the soil is dry and needs watering. A fully grown Cow Plant is a dangerous creature.
They generate rejuvenating milk after eating Sims that are fooled by their false cake
tongues. Additionally, make sure to keep feeding your Cow Plant meat when it is fully
grown or else it may die. The Cow Plant was first introduced in The Sims 2.
How to Get Writer's Block:
--------------------------
Sometimes, getting over the first hurdle in the writing aspiration, Bestselling Author,
where your character must get writer's block can be extremely complicated. However, you
can pass this easily by using the "motives remain static" cheat above and then practice
writing for about 6-24 hours.

relationship between two sims.
* To change friendships, use the command Modifyrelationship [your Sim's first and last names]
[target Sim's first and last names] [50 or -50] Friendship_Main.
* To change romance, use the command Modifyrelationship [your Sim's first and last names]
[target Sim's first and last names] [50 or -50] Romance_Main.
To set a relationship, use the relationship.add_bit [your Sim's ID number] [target Sim's
ID number] [relationshipBit name] command. Because you cannot remove a relationshipBit
after it is set, you have to overwrite it.
Use the following entries for the relationshipBit name:

family_brother_sister

Hidden lots:
------------
* Sylvan Glades in Willow Creek neighborhood: Visit the Crick Cabana lot in the Willow Creek
neighborhood. Search the public space next to the house to find a tree labeled "Sylvan Tree"
that appears differently than the others. It is a big tree with flowers growing from its sides.
Click the tree and select the "View" option repeatedly until a door appears. Select the Tree
Adventure, and choose the following options in order: "Follow the Sound", "Follow Downstream",
and "Enter the Mist". The Sylvan Glades lot is now accessible. It contains the following
collectibles: Minerals, Basil, Fish, Frogs, Lily, Snapdragon, Bluebell, Strawberry, Mushroom,
Pear Tree, and Cherry Tree .
* Forgotten Grotto in Oasis Springs neighborhood: This requires a Sim with level 10 Hardiness.
Visit the Desert Bloom Park lot in the Oasis Springs neighborhood. Move far behind the lot
and find the public space that has a bathroom stall. From here, follow the canyon to the left
to find a boarded up entrance to a cave. Interact with the Mine Cave to break down the wooden
boards and enter. Complete the Adventure Cave by choosing the following options in order:
"Take the Wide Path", "Climb the Ladder", and "Step onto the Ledge". The Forgotten Grotto is
now accessible. It contains the following collectibles: Onions, Sage, Lily, Mushroom, Mineral,
Fish, Frog, and Potato.
Growing Cow Plants:
-------------------
Go to the Desert Bloom lot in the Oasis Springs neighborhood and go to the canyon that leads
to the Mine Cave. Along the rock walls of the canyon is a small pond that feeds a shallow
stream. Fish at the pond until you get Cow Plant seed. Return to your home lot, open your
inventory, and drag the seed to where you want to plant it. Once planted, water it daily until
it grows to full size. If the dirt at the base of plant turns light brown, it needs to be
watered. Once fully grown, you must feed the Cow Plant meat to keep it alive.
Voodoo Doll:
------------
When fishing you may find rare items, including the Voodoo Doll. Try using the ponds in
Sylvan Glades and Forgotton Grotto to increase the chances. The Voodoo Doll requires Skill
Level 3 in Mischief to use, and improving that skill will give you better results. To raise
your Mischief skill, walk around and choose the "Mischief" bubble when interacting with
other Sims. When you are able to, use the "Troll internet forums" action on the computer
as well.
Edit Relationship Level with Sims:
----------------------------------
First, make sure you have activated the testingcheats code (testingcheats true/testingcheats
on). Open the console menu and copy/paste the code below and edit "PlayedSimFirstName
PlayedSimLastName" with your Sim's information and then "TargetFirstName TargetLastName"
with your target Sim's information and a number between -100 to 100.
Note that this will only change how your Sim feels, not the NPC Sim.
