                There's some other cheat codes, but I've never 
                  tried them, so I like better not to give them to you. You can 
                  find a long list of cheat codes at SimFreaks.

              | The

                the mailbox. What can I do? | 
             
             
              | If your sims don't receive any more visits, it's 
                most of the time because a "portal" problem: the mailbox 
                might have been deleted by mistake (haven't you heard that cheats 
                codes can be dangerous to use?). Thank to SimsPlus,you 
                can download for this site a new mailbox. |

              | I 
                have lost my serial code for the Sims. Could you give me yours? | 
             
             
              |  
                 Ok, two suppositions: 
                  - you haven't bought the game but use a copy. Ok... So, no, 
                  there's nothing I can do for you. Go in the nearest shop and 
                  buy the game, you'll get a serial number. 
                  - you have really bought the game and did really lose your serial 
                  number. Well, SimsPlus 
                  explains you how to find it again, if you have registered on 
                  Maxis site. If not, I'm afraid you will have to call Maxis, 
                  and see with them what you can do.

              | Will 
                the Sims kids become adults? | 
             
             
              In the original Sims game, no. Your Sims have 
                a baby, after 3 days the baby becomes a child but the child doesn't 
                gorw up anymore. 
                But you can use some 3rd-party programs that will allow your Sims 
                kids to grow up, like SimLifeCycle. 
                And please, don't ask me anything about these programs because 
                they only work on Windows and I have a Mac, so I can't try them. |

              | I don't 
                understand what my Sims say... Why?! | 
             
             
              | People have different languages, depending on 
                where they live. This is also true for virtual people: the Sims 
                speak their own language, the simmish. So don't worry if you can't 
                understand them! =) |
