[2.01] Hobbies
Hobbies are the main addition to The Sims 2 - FreeTime. This is an addition
of 10 different hobbies that your Sims can pursue, ranging from eating the
fine food of Cuisine to the fat-burning Sports. Like your skill point, there
are essentially 10 points in each hobbies, and as you progress, the more you
can do in relation to that hobby. For example, while you only have initial
interest in your hobby, you can only blog about it, and discuss with friends,
while as you gain more interest, you can go jogging or serve food platters,
whatever happens depends on your hobby.
--==Natural Talents==--
For some Sims, interest in a particular activity will develop their
enthusiasm in that hobby faster. This is denoted when you have your little
Sims perform an activity that will increase enthusiasm in a certain hobby.
If a speech bubble appears that says that they liked the activity, that means
they will have a natural talent to this specific hobby. This is also
outlined on the hobbies panel. This is accessed under the personality section
of the Sim's Panel and will be found under the kite, which will mean hobbies.
A sliver glow around a certain hobby will mean that they have a natural talent
there.
What is a natural talent and what does it do? Well, a natural talent means
that with Free Will on, they will automatically perform activities that will
increase their enthusiasm in that specific hobby that they have a natural
talent in. They will also gain their enthusiasm in their natural hobbies at a
quicker rate that those who are merely interested.
If you don't see any silver glow around any hobbies, have your Sim perform an
activity that will involve enthusiasm in that hobby. Try all of it and look
again, because unless they have no natural talents, it will be there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.02] Cuisine
"Cuisine Sims enjoy creating and savouring food, as well as pitting their
creations against a Food Judge's palate. Being good at cooking will help
keep their Cuisine enthusiasm high.
Icon: A Platter of Food
Cuisine enthusiasm is basically gain doing anything remotely related to food.
More on that later. To maintain enthusiasm to a high level, a high cooking
skill will allow you have less maintenance than those without a high cooking
skill level. Anyway, lets go through the benefits of the skill levels
in Cuisine.
--==Benefits==--
At Enthusiasm Level 1: Talk About Cuisine
At this skill level, you can talk to other Sims about Cuisine, and this will
allow them to create an interest about Cuisine in other Sims. This is done
by click on the Sim you wish to talk to and select "Talk About Hobby" and
then select the hobby.
At Enthusiasm Level 2: Read Food and Dining Section
At this skill level, you are able to use the newspaper and read the food and
dining section in the newspaper. This will allow you to gain more anthusiasm
in Cuisine in general.
At Enthusiasm Level 3: Serve Chips Platter
This allows your Sim to entertain guests by serving a Chips platter from the
fridge. This is done by clicking the fridge, "Serve Platter" and selecting the
Chips option from it. This is like another group meal, there are 5 serves per
platter.
At Enthusiasm Level 4: Browse Web About Cuisine
At this specific skill level, you are able to use any computer and surf the
internet about the big world of Cuisine. This will further increase your
enthusiasm in the world of Cuisine.

platter from your fridge. This is done the same way as the Chips platter,
select the fridge, serve platter and select the cheese option.

Sims that you deem worthy. This will help increase the enthuiasm gained by
the other Sim.

on the Internet, which can be done via any computer. This allows a faster
anthusiasm gain than browsing the web for news about cuisine.
At Enthusiasm Level 8: Serve Appetizer Platter
This is the final sort of food platter in which you can serve. Like the Chips
and Cheese platters, this is done by selecting the fridge, serve platter and
choosing the appetizers option.
At Enthusiasm Level 9: Instruct in Cuisine
You are now eligble to teach other Sims in the art of cuisine. While you
wonder around, other Sim, who are not as skilled as you are in the art of
Cuisine, can walk up to you and "Ask" for tips on cuisine and they will be
instructed.

rate of decay and continue their work uninterrupted whilst performing
activities that are related to Cuisine.
--==Activities==--

I will list them for you to see, in all its glory.

waste food.

appreciation on cuisine by studying it out of a book from the
bookshelf.
Blogging - You can blog about this to increase your anthusiasm
Writing - You will gain interest in Cuisine when you decide to write a
restaurant guide. This is the third benefit for the Pleasure
Seeker aspiration and the 4th for those who have it as a
secondary aspiration.
Television - The Yummy Channel on the television is the best place for you
to learn about the big bad world of cuisine.
Rewards - Using the Chocolate Maker, the Career Reward object from the
Culinary Career Track.
--==Cooking Contest==--
If you can't get enough of Iron Chef, you can participate in cooking contest.
This is where you can go to community lots and compete to get the Blue
Ribbon and a Cash Prize. To enter the cooking contest, you need to create a
meal at home and it has to be a group meal. Anyway, get the platter and place
it in your inventory, uneaten. You can then head to a community lot where
there is a food judging table and you can submit your entry there. To win,
this will depend on the food cooked, the more expensive it costs, the higher
cooking skill you have, and whether it is cooked or burnt will determine
whether you win or not. If you win, you get the prize, you lose, try again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.03] Arts and Crafts
"Painters, photographers, tailors and potters are all bound by their love of
art. Creativity is key for Sims to remain enthusiastic about Arts and
Crafts."
Icon: An Artist's Brush

easiest ones to gain. If you maintain a high level of creativity, the
maintenance for arts and crafts will be relatively low and easier for you
to maintain.

"The television and the bookshelf are honoured places for those Sims that
thrive on stories. The film and literature Sim revels in the comedy and
the mystery present in all intricate narratives."

excited. Sims with high body skill are going to be more enthuaiastic about
sports."
Icon: Exercise Bib and Sport Ball
This is a more energising hobby and one that your Sims will be fun to maintain

sport.
Video Games - Whether it is on the comptuer or on the console, it is a game
in its own right.

victory will be.

[2.08] Tinkering
"Tinkering with electronics and mechanical items is some Sim's favourite
pasttime. They love upgrading their electronic items, playing with train
tables or even restoring vintage cars. Sim with high mechanical skill will be
more into tinkering."
Icon: Wrench
This is one of the most useful of the addons since it can improve your house
and the value of items. More on that later.

Tinker - Around the house, you can tinker with many mechanical items. This
will increase your interest in Tinkering.
Train Set - By playing around with the train set and adding a town, water,
mountain, signs and trees, you will increase your tinkering
skills.
Cars - You can purchase a broken down car and redo the car and make it
new all again. This is sure to increase your skill in tinkering.
--==Tinkering==--
Tinkering is going to electronical items and seeing if you can tinker with
it. If you can, you will see the Tinker option available from the item. This
Tinker option basically allows you to play around with the items and if
you successfully tinker it, you will restore the value of the item to full
price. After that, you can sell it again. But be sure that you have a high
mechanical skill before you do this because it may zap you a tad if you do
not have a high mechanical skill.
--==Restoring Cars==--
You can restore the old, broken down car into a customized car and sell it
for a massive profit. All you need is the broken car and a driveway to place
it on. To restore the car, you need to work on the engine and the body of
the car. The Body can be done in a single go with one Sim, while another
Sim can concentrate on the Engine. It will take a few tries to fix the
engine, so keep a watchful eye on the Sim repairing the engine of the car.
Once it is complete, you can paint the car in a variety of colours, from
Blue, to Black, to Green, to Orange, to Siler, to White and finally
Yellow. Even if you have painted it once, you can paint it again and
finally sell it at a nice price of 5,200 Simoleons, quite a tidy sum for
yourself.

The Rock Hammer reward from Music in Seasons, you will increase
your interest in music by performing music.
--==Dance Contest==--
Sometimes, your Sims may get the urge to enter a dance contest. This can be
done at the secret lot for the music and dance hobbies studio, where you can
get a DJ to dance off with you. Another person will contest that you are the
best, and this will end in a contest, and one person, the one with more
skill, will end up as the victor. And to the victor goes the spoils.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.12] Hobbie Benefits
Of course, there will be benefits of having a hobby. The ones that I won't
mention are those already mentioned above in their respective topics. The
first will be IN THE ZONE.
--==Magazine Subscription==--
At enthusiasm level 3, the Sim can use the phone to subscribe to a magazine
in which they can read. This magazine will be delivered weekly and can only
be read a certain number of times before the magazine self-destructs. This
allows you to gain more enthusiasm in that subject as well as anyone else who
decides to read the magazine, since it is not restricted to reading, only to
subscribing to the magazine in the first place.
--==In the Zone==--
Once your Sims ahve reach the maximum level for their hobby, they will be in
the zone for that hobby's activities. This basically means, when they perform
an activity related to the maxed out hobby, they will have a white glow that
will indicate that they are In the Zone.
What does this do? Well, while they are performing that activity, they will
forget about anything that is around them and they will not be distracted.
This is handy if your little dudes are prone to distraction or hate being
interrupted by phone calls. You can even ignore fires if you are in the
zone! Anyway, the second benefit, and by far the more valuable one is that
you will have a slower overall decay of your moods. Therefore, hunger,
comfort, bladder, energy, fun, social and hygiene will decay at a slower rate
than usual, and that will leave you more time to focus on your special
hobby.
--==Secret Lots==--
Something that I will talk about later, but this is intended to be a brief
overview of it. Anyway, these secret lots are basically secret areas in the
neighbourhood of Hobbies, that you can access once you have 5 enthusiasm
points in a hobby. There are 10 secret lots, one for each hobby and this will
be a place where you can improve your enthusiasm in your hobby as well as
a helpful instructor who can help you improve your enthusiasm even more, and
this will increase your enthusiasm level. You can also take other Sims along
with you, even though they do not have membership. This is the only way
children can access a secret lot, being accompanied by an adult.
The secret lots are:
Cuisine - Sue's Secret Kitchen
Arts and Crafts - My Muse II - Art Studio
Film and Literature - Desirable Discourse Film & Literature Club
Sports - Dreamy Fields
Games - Glory Gaming Club
Nature - Peerless Park Nature Retreat
Tinkering - Will's Garage
Fitness - Platinum Gym
Science - Aspirational Laboratories
Music and Dance - My Muse - Music & Dance Studio
--==Plaque==--
Once you have reached the highest possible enthusiasm level for a certain
hobbie, the leader of the secret lot will come and greet you, and this will
end up giving your Sim a plaque in recognition of their achievements. This is
worth 120 Simoleons but it is better if you hand it on the wall and have your
head held high.

[6.01] Carefree Koi Pond by Simulated Life
"Nothing says "I Love Nature" more than accepting it in your own backyard.
This simulated koi pond creates the perfect environment for our extraordinary
long-lived koi. The built-in filtration system converts any organic material
into specically formulated koi food and removes all waste products without
you having to life a finger - all you have to do is watch and enjoy!"
Carefree Koi Pond by Simulated Life
Job Level : Level 6 - Marine Biologist (Oceanography)
Increase Skill : None
Increase Motive : Fun - 10, Environment - 10
Bonus : Nature Interest
This job reward is basically a new form of aquarium. This is where you can
watch and feed fish, the same as a regular fish tank, except what makes this
one more special than a normal fish tank is that it will increase the interest
of Nature in any Sim that bothers to observes it. Other than that, it is a
nice decoration for the outdoors, since it has to be placed on grass tiles,
and not tiles with flooring over it, so outside it goes. It will go nicely
with a zen garden.

[6.02] "Starstruck" Personal Fame Stars
"Let others bask in your glow with this bona-fide Personal Fame Star. It's

"They Love Me! They really love me!"
"Starstruck" Personal Fame Stars
Job Level : Level 5 - Ventriloquist (Entertainment)
Increase Skill : None
Increase Motive : Social - ?
Bonus : None
This is one of the more worthless job rewards other there, since it does
pretty much nothing. The only thing it does do, besides it being available
in two colours, a black or white star, is that it will increase the Social
bar of any Sim that goes near it. Other than that, there are no real uses
to this item. Great decoration, place it on your front door, or make a
walk of fame, but other than that, pointless. You can't even interact with
this item!

[6.03] SIM Series Drafting Table by QuicKraft
"QuicKraft introduces the SIM series Drafting Table. This perfectly angled
drafting table sues the finest materials and an ergonomic design to
create the clutter-free workspace needed to develop your talent in
technical drawing."
SIM Series Drafting Table by QuicKraft
Job Level : Level 6 - Draftsman (Architecture)
Increase Skill : Creativity
Increase Motive : Fun - 5
Bonus : Arts & Craft Interest
One of the better rewards out there, this is basically another easel to work
on, instead of paintings, you make blueprints. You have the choice to Draft
Blueprint, Draft Scene or Draft Custom. Drafting a Scene is basically taking
a photo with the in-game camera and using the Drafting Table to make a drawing
out of that scene. Draft custom is basically the same, but you get to draft
another picture of something else. The Draft Blueprint is the main option.
The option basically allows you to draw a blueprint of an item, and there are
4 that your Sim can draft. They can draft a car (the customised car), the
UFO decoration, the Grand Piano from Bon Voyage and the Weathernaught Weather
Changer from Seasons. After your Sim has spent roughly 4 hours on this, they
will end up with a technical drawing in your inventory. You can sell this
drawing or mount it up on the wall. Like the easel, the more you draw, the
more the drawings will be worth. Again, one of the better rewards out there
that you can obtain.

[6.04] Better Barre by Deuxjoint Ltd.
"The ballet barre is an essential component for practice whether you're a
beginning ballerina, a versed virtuoso, or competent cavalier. When
practicing "a la barre" you want to worry about your technique, not
whether the bar can handle the pressure. We present to you the Better Barre -
a bar designed for the better balleter, crafted to help perfect your
positions."
Better Barre by Deuxjoint Ltd.
Job Level : Level 6 - Intrepretive Dancer (Dance)
Increase Skill : None
Increase Motive : Fun - 1
Bonus : Interest in Music & Dance
Again, not a very useful reward at all. All this does is allow your Sim to
practice ballet with the bar, a much better item to practice with over your
generic bar from the buy catalog. I'll admit that I don't bother using this
but if you want your Sims to perfect their ballet, this item is for you. Did
I mention that this allows you to gain some interest in Music and Dance? Yes,
I'm pretty sure I did. Use it, but don't be surprised that it is not
interesting.

Audio Augmenter by Little Mole Inc.
Job Level : Level 5 - Reconnaissance Communicator (Intelligence)
Increase Skill : None
Increase Motive : Fun - ?, Social - ?
Bonus : A Lot of Things
This little machine is used solely for spying and its many devious task. You
can only use this to spy on others, and by doing so, you make pick up some
interesting chatter or noises, and this can lead to some good rewards, or
some poor returns. Anyway, there are a list of what can happen, and here they
are.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Heard | Found |
|-------------------------------------------------+--------------------------|
| Hearing where the money is hidden | §200 Simoleons Found |
| Hearing someone dropping some money | §75 Simoleons Found |
| Hearing someone drop coins onto the pavement | §43 Simoleons Found |
| Hearing where your neighbours hide their cash | §95 Simoleons Found |
| Hearing your neighbours are upset | Decrease in Fun |
| Hearing someone laugh loudly | Absolutely Nothing |
| Hearing some people gossip with each other | Increase in Social |
| Hearing a dirty secret about someone | Increase in Social |
| Hearing somebody going to the bathroom | Decrease in Bladder |
| Hearing a juicy tip for work | Increase in Job |
| | Performance |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one that I haven't mentioned. When you spy, sometimes, your
neighbours might come over and demand some privacy. When this happens, a Sim
living close to your Sim will come over and shove you. Of course, when you
hear your neighbours demanding their privacy, occupy yourself with something
and cancel the action, because this will lead to a drop in relationship.
Still, this is a pretty cool reward.
