2254. The Guardian Meets The Sims..

Written on Friday 11 October 2002 at 01:50 by Matthew - 0 comments.

Continuing with the explosion of all things Sims currently in the UK media, Thursday's edition of the Guardian newspaper had two articles of interest. Luckily enough, both are available online as well. :) The more interesting of the two is a feature written by Rhianna Pratchett (who normally writes for PC Zone magazine over here), and it's a brief look at all things to do with the game. Here's a taster:

'When the bespectacled gaming entrepreneur Will Wright tentatively announced to Wired magazine in 1994 his plans to build a game based around the architectural creation of an average family home, no one, save perhaps Wright himself, thought that such a game would take off. As the years passed, technology caught up with the dream and, in 2000, that embryo of an idea was released by Wright's development house, Maxis, in the form of The Sims, a real-time strategy game where players created and furnished a house, while looking after the needs of a virtual family.'

2255. TSO: Buy your place in the play-test

Written on Thursday 10 October 2002 at 20:56 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Want to join the TSO play test, but haven't been invited yet? You can now buy your place by pre-ordering the game. It mainly goes for North America again, there isn't a list of participating retailers in Europe or elsewhere. Also, there's a little notice saying this:

"Excludes shipping and handling. Outside of North America, prospective pre-purchasers will need to verify participation in this program with their local retailers or verify that participating online retailers can ship to their desired destinations. Again, pre-ordering gets you into the Play Test, and every Play Tester is automatically in The Sims Online Founders program."

That isn't the only update at the official site though: there's the whole October update. 5 new articles, a MOMI update (about the play test) and a new webmaster pack (2.43 Mb) together make this update. The 5 articles are more or less the usual stuff. One is about "Bringing virtual building to a whole new level", a diary entry of a play-tester, how you can customise your lot's sounds, an article called "Playing with the Property Page", and finally something about TSO objects. That's all for the October Update, and you can find it all at the TSO official site.

2256. The Neighborhood Handler & Unleashed

Written on Thursday 10 October 2002 at 20:36 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

If you visit us regularly, you might know that I've been down with RSI (a mouse-arm) for a few weeks. I'm glad to say that things are getting better again, and I can do some work again. However, there was still quite some work to be done on TNHH and other things. That means there's some work piled up, so I'll be staying a bit in the background for another while to catch up. Matthew will be keeping you updated with the latest news most of the time. Now about my planning for The Neighborhood Handler. As said, I was working on a version that would be compatible with the new Unleashed expansion pack. As it got delayed, I thought I'd still want to release it as soon as possible - or at least something. There is still some work to be done on the program itself, but that should be finished within 2 weeks or so as I resumed the programming work today. I'll then post a simple version of the program, without a big readme, manual whatsoever. In other words, just the program and nothing else. Another few weeks later, a full version with manual, installation and maybe some bugfixes etc. will be uploaded. As usual, the program will be released to the Yahoo! Group first.

2257. SimDay: Lots of links and some other things...

Written on Thursday 10 October 2002 at 20:26 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Quite a big SimDay this week, although most of it are just links to reviews of Unleashed or The Sims Deluxe. One that isn't in our Unleashed review index yet is this one from Computer Simulation Games. 2 other reviews are from the Gamer's Temple, from both Unleashed and Deluxe. To end the list, TSO has been featured at SeattlePi.com. To see a list of several reviews of Unleashed go here, for Deluxe click here. Furthermore, part 2 of the Unleashed Pet Skins has been made available to registered users. It's not a real big download (468 Kb), so just get it by following this link. Also the Exchange has been reopened to international users so you can download even more. There's a new warning message when downloading, so make sure you read that. Finally, an Unleashed FAQ has been uploaded at the official site which answers questions from rezoning to getting rid of unwanted animals. The FAQ can be found here. That's all for this week, from the official site.

2260. New Meshes Posted

Written on Tuesday 8 October 2002 at 20:44 by Jendea - 0 comments.

New casual shirred top with boot leg jeans mesh posted today with two skins included. Also posted is the head which is also a new mesh and includes two skins too. I think Fionn has every possible hairstyle imaginable available already, so I am concentrating on the face shapes. This one is a heart-shaped face with a slight slant to the eyes.
