This week in SimDay: a new TSO and SimCity 4 chat, a patch for The Sims Deluxe and a new The Sims PS2 website. The patch and website info can be read in the "Read more" link, but first here is all the chat info. First of all, tonight at 11pm (British time, midnight GMT or 3pm Pacific) there will be a chat of SimCity 4. Guest of honour is Joseph, designer of that game, who will be talking about the rewards system. Tomorrow there's another TSO chat where you can talk about the development team. That event will be held at 2am British time (which is 3 in the morning in Europe, 6pm PST). A chat of last week's chat is available at the TSO site. As it's available only in the community events section of the bug boards, I cannot read the chat as I cannot join the play test either. Remember that we have a TSO interview too! You can still submit your questions to us so your questions get answered.
As for the Deluxe patch: this contains mostly speed fixes. Meanwhile it also fixes the problem that broken skins won't crash the game anymore. Instead, they will appear as a white skin instead. Unleashed owners don't need this patch. Go to this page for more details and the download (3.12 Mb). And last but not least: there's a new website for The Sims on PlayStation 2. You can find some game info, news, desktop wallpapers and more on it, as well as a nice "Sims Radio" function where you can listen to a few bits of your favourite Sims music. All can be found at TheSimsConsole.com. That's all for this week... another SimDay will be next week at the official site.
