2101. SimDay Report: Nothing interesting

Written on Thursday 21 February 2002 at 19:01 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

This week's SimDay is very short. All it says is that the winners of the Hot or Not contest will be announced next week. That's all, nothing more to say. Not even a community update or anything else...

2102. The Partners - A The Sims-alike game

Written on Sunday 17 February 2002 at 23:37 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

From Monte Cristo, creators of Airline Tycoon, we'll see a new game coming in April. Why would we post about it here? Because it'll be quite like The Sims: you'll control a few employees of a law firm like you were the writer of a TV Series. The Partners have needs like love, friendship, success and culture, to name a few. You can manage more than 20 lawyers in 3 campaigns containing 21 missions and 30 sub-missions. If you're interested, visit The Partners site. We are not sure when exactly it'll be available and where it'll be available then.

2103. Affiliates Clearout

Written on Sunday 17 February 2002 at 22:59 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

After last week TheSims.co.uk has been moved off our affiliates list, we've also decided to move Diary of a Sim and The Sims Outlook away from that list. You can now find them in the regular links page. We've also decided to go off synchroplay's top list. We have added SimHoo! to our links section too. We might accept new affiliates in the future, but we do not at this point.

2104. Date tool fixed?

Written on Saturday 16 February 2002 at 19:08 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

We have reason to believe that the date-making tool has been fixed. First of all - it seems Maxis had taken it down for a while. It's now back though, and the file size has changed to 2.74 Mb. I believe that it's now possible to create dates successfully, and no more messing with genders. We haven't tested it ourselves yet though. You can use the comments to tell us if it works for you or not.

2105. Update: Date Making Tool doesn't work

Written on Friday 15 February 2002 at 19:41 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

It's true, Maxis did it again. The Date Making tool seems to be causing quite some problems. It seems to be swapping genders, and that certain textures aren't used so you get white bodyparts for your sim... Our advice at this time: don't use it. We'll keep you updated and tell you when the tool is safe to use.

2106. Date Making tool available

Written on Friday 15 February 2002 at 19:23 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Want to make a new townie for your sims to date? Then you should now get the date maker tool over at the official site. It'll only work with Hot Date, of course. Click here to download it now (1.13 Mb). For your opinion about it, you could use the comments option (Members only).

2107. New Game: SimUniverse?

Written on Wednesday 13 February 2002 at 22:45 by ChEeTaH - 2 comments.

In this article at ShackNews, we can read something interesting. Will Wright was featured in the new issue of the WIRED magazine, and he was telling what he's been reading lately:

Life of the Cosmos, by Lee Smolin
"I'm currently working on a universe simulation game and have been reading a lot on recent discoveries about our galaxy, stellar processes, and astrophysics. Most science books are camouflaged in technical jargon - they sound deadly boring and dry - but Smolin comes across more like Richard Dawkins or Carl Sagan, and he makes it all interesting in much the same way that we'll need to in the game."

Does this mean we can expect something like SimUniverse in the future, or will SimMars be continued after all? We'll keep you updated...

2109. Problems with patch - again

Written on Wednesday 13 February 2002 at 03:00 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

To most people the patch v2.0 seems to be working fine - but for others it's still causing problems, sometimes even more than the unpatched game. The problems seem to occur when you create a new neighborhood and want to build in that. The game will crash itself then. We've heard that using the reinstall option in the CD menu works. It'll keep the old prude coming, though the bay window won't show up then. We haven't been able to test the patch yet because it's not out for international versions yet, but we'll keep you updated. The international versions will be 'comimg soon' according to Maxis.

2110. Affiliation break

Written on Monday 11 February 2002 at 00:27 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

For good reasons, we and The Sims.co.uk have decided to break the affiliation. Their link has been moved to the links page, and you can still visit them here, even though they're currently working on a relaunch. They'll launch again around 23 february.
