I think you'd be able to extract the corresponding STR and make some changes, then stick the new shiny strings package in your downloads folder.

Well I'm not a dude, and STR# is text list. Maybe you can search around in MTS or the wiki for more info about modding.

i tried on other PC and sucessfully changed up the startup strings on freetime (this is easy to do on whatever EP You're running) its in a package file listed in \EA Games\The Sims 2 FreeTime\TSData\Res\Text\UIText.package

use SimPE to do this

and be nice to the Splines!

Note that "One Last Time" in the M&G startup strings. Does this mean no more startup messages in TS3? Well I hope not--that's one of the things that make Sims so unique. And I'd hate to see the spline trend end in TS2!.

Aww, but I love the start-up messages! One the other day made me laugh from the Celebration/Wedding SP; "De-inviting Don Lothario".

Thank you, treag, and thank you, DeviceNet, for telling me how to customize it; I had been wondering IF it could be done...
