Sims are talking about magic lamps since the Sims 2 came out three years ago and thanks to some creative fans Sims could dress up as genies, street urchin and Arabian princesses but their searches for the mythical Cave of Wonders always ended up at death ends. Sure some Sims made it their job to hunt for ancient relics in the Adventurer career that was added trough an expansion pack but the magic lamp seemed lost forever.
However from February 26, 2008 on genie’s lamp is within their reach. That’s when The Sims 2 FreeTime hits the streets it contains a magic lamp that summons a purple Genie Sims ready to grant wishes. The Genie can grant just one wish at the time it’s up to the Sim to choose.
Wealth, Beauty, Cheat Death, Longer Life and unlike Aladdin’s genie this being can bring people back from the death.
How to get a Magic Lamp with the genie?
Some sources say that the household needs a total 16 hobby points for the gypsy woman to drop you a lamp while others say there’s a 2% chance every day your household receives a lamp and that chance can be increased when Sims have many hobby points prefer a full hobby bar or 2.
My families in the Seasons neighborhood, descents of a pre-made household, are big Nature lovers with greenhouses and all… plus one teenage girl is in Platinum mood ever since she filled her music and arts hobby bar fully but still no gypsy with magic lamp.
Cheating seems the only other way to get the lamp, typ boolprop testingcheatsenabled true call the gypsy and spawn the lamp by shift+click and select spawn->genie lamp. If you thought that you can sell the lamp from the Aspir family in Desiderata Valley by opening a public store on a community lot, forget it! The lamp can’t be priced.

Of course Aladdin won’t show up in your neighborhood because it’s a custom made character from the Sims 2 site SnootySims, see the post above for the link.

That happened to me once. I am not sure about all those ways you told me, because it just happened. It’s just like Mr. Humble, he gives you a present randomly. I wished for Cheat Death on my 3 favorite sims, but nothing has happened so far since they are only toddlers.

I’ve conjured a genie twice without cheating. THe first time it was because the sim had four maxed-out hobby bars and a platinum aspiration. The second time it was because the toddler of all people had achieved three major wants (nursery rhyme walk and talk) plus there were 16 hobby points between the two adult sims.

Can someone tell me how much money I would get if I sold the lamp? Just wondering if I should wish for money, or sell the lamp.

Another way to bring sims back from the dead is to get sims 2 university expantion pack, once installed and your playing the game again you click control, shift, and c at the same time and a white bar will show up. click on it and then type unlockcareerrewards. then press enter and it will disappear. do control, shift, c again, and then type in motherlode. press enter and it will disappear.then go to your inventory, then to career rewards, and click on the russerect-o-numrotron. put it somewhere, then go back to life mode. click on it, and it will say call grim reaper. click on that. it will show you what looks like your phonebook exept it will show pictures of your dead sim before they died, and click on one of them. then it asks how much you will pay, and you have to pay as much as it will let you. if you only pay a litle bit, your sim will come back as a very ugly zombie. but that’s hw you bring people back.
to kill someone, you must have sims 2 university and have done control, shift, c and typed in unlockcareerrewards. go to your inventory and then to career rewards, and you will fins a cow plant next to where the russerect-o-numrotron was. click on the cow plant and put it somewhere. go to life mode and wait untill a peice of cake on a vine comes out of the cowplant’s mouth. the prson to kill must be at least in their teenage years. if they are conrolled by you, click on it with the person you want to kill and click grab cake. the cowplant will swallow that person whole. the person will die and a tombstone will pop up. with a person you want to live longer ,click on the cowplant after it killed someone and click on milk. it will add days to their life. HOPEW THAT HELPED!!!!
