563. 10 Million Milestone

Written on Tuesday 18 April 2006 at 17:52 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

The Sims Zone keeps growing. The proof of that is the increasing number of daily visitors. In November 2001 we started with only a few visitors every day, first increasing to hundreds, then just over a thousand, later roughly 5,000 every day and with the release of the Sims 2 that number seemed to double again. Now we're getting almost 20 thousand unique visitors every day. All those visitors added up count to 10 Million visitors in total, since we started counting them at 2 February 2002. A great milestone, for a site that started off small. We've continued to keep you up-to-date with all the latest Sims news, providing some files and entertainment along the way as well. It's paid off, obviously, as we continue to grow. Thanks to all the 10 Million of you visiting us in the past and present, and keep visiting us to stay up to date with all the latest Sims news, with the big E3 expo event just a few weeks away!

Thanks for visiting us, from the entire Sims Zone Team!

564. MaxoidKane leaving Sims 2 community

Written on Sunday 16 April 2006 at 22:47 by ChEeTaH - 1 comment.

One of the Maxoids appearing in public for the Sims 2 - on the Internet anyway - quite a lot is MaxoidKane. Last week she announced that will no longer be the case, as she will be moving to another team at EA, to "explore new breakfast treats and new games." Other Maxis Web team members will be taking over the task, namely MaxoidDrea, MaxoidMojo, MaxoidDano and MaxoidKitty. The new position of MaxoidKane is unknown, but several Sims 2 team members have already left to the Spore team before and she might just be another one. For more information check out the BBS Post announcing her leaving. Thanks to Hiki for the link.

565. Unofficial Patch for FFS Bug

Written on Sunday 16 April 2006 at 22:40 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

The bug reported about yesterday, in Family Fun Stuff, has already been fixed by the community. Although it will make the Family Fun icon disappear on the clothes provided by the pack, it does prevent them from being deleted after you use them. PatchesSim2 has provided the patch on ModTheSims2. Meanwhile an official patch for the pack is still underway. Thanks to Babbelsim and Hiki from the official Dutch site for providing the link.

Not everybody has the Sims 2 or Family Fun Stuff yet, and for those people there's now a chance to win both on EA Pogo, the online gaming site.

Only residents of the United States (except Rhode Island) and Canada (except Quebec) are allowed to enter, provided that they're 13 years or older. The complete rules can be found on the sweepstake rules page.

567. Commercial Contest Winners

Written on Sunday 16 April 2006 at 22:28 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Several weeks ago Maxis launched a contest in which members of the official site were asked to create a commercial for a business from Open for Business. Winners could receive a brand new nVidia PC, or a video card by the same company. The winners have now been revealed, with pancaketitz8's commercial for WWBTC being the grand prize winner. Second prize winners, the video cards, go to booey4864 (Nutty Ned), m1tchm (Macabre Mart) and Ninhead1011 (Big Jon's). There are also 6 honorable mentions, picked from over 100 entries in total. All videos can be downloaded from the winners page.

568. Family Fun Stuff Bug

Written on Saturday 15 April 2006 at 02:55 by ChEeTaH - 6 comments.

More Family Fun Stuff news, this time specifically for owners of the pack. Not only will they see the icon on the left on their MySims page on the official site, they will also experience a bug with the new clothes. When you use one of the new outfits in Create-A-Sim mode, to dress your Sim, the selected outfit will disappear from the game after restarting it. The Sim (or Sims) will still be wearing the clothes. The outfit will not only disappear from CAS, but also from community lot purchases. The only work-around so far is to give Sims the Family Fun Stuff clothes through purchase on a community lot rather than through CAS. This way, the bug won't occur. If you backed up your user data (neighborhoods, downloads, etc) before installing the Stuff Pack, you can uninstall and reinstall the pack to get the outfits back, but this will mean you lose your progress made since the pack was installed. Maxis is working on a patch, which should solve the problem soon. When exactly the patch will be released is unclear. For more information see MaxoidKane's post on the official BBS. Thanks to SnootySims and Hiki for the tips.

It's been available in some European countries (not the UK) with selected pre-orders, and now - while supplies last - you can get the summer dress shown on the left by purchasing the pack at a local Target store. EA UK has not announced any plans to make the download available in the United Kingdom.
