Beneath the Surface

Evil game. Evil- EVIL!

I have- get this- 1 bloody GIG of SIMS downloads... objects, room sets, hacks, clothes, lots...

EVIL! But so very fun...

Nighty night!

Ummm, I can spell, really I can. :-)

Downloads? There are downloads? :D

From:

Oh yes, there are downloads.

Haven't you gone SIM shopping on the web yet? Uh, be forewarned- you may not get sleep for the next few days. :-)

Those are some of my favourite sites. I think they are all still "free" sites, and still offering SIMS stuff (as opposed to SIMS 2).

Enjoy!

From:

LOL I'm playing too...hot date. Which ones do you have?

From:

Oh my Gods! You don't know about downloads!!!??!?!! Watch out for your harddrive! My game already runs slow and has glitches, even with file cop!

Go to The Sims web site, that's a good place to start ;)

From:

I am playing Deluxe & Unleashed- that's about all my system can handle at the moment.
;-) Happily though, we are doing our yearly upgrade this weekend (three more days 'til 120 gigs!) and then I want to get all the others- Hot Date, Vacation, Makin' Magic. ;-)

Bye-bye sleep. :-D

Have you gals seen SIMS 2? My Hubby just looked into it, says it has amazing graphics. But me, I'm old fashioned- I'll stick with the original SIMS for a while yet.

LOL! I got it last autumn and tried it out. I'm staying away. Away I tell you! It's hard enough to find time to fit in a round of Zeus.

Before you dump too much money on Sims accoutrements, you should be aware that Sims 2 is on the horizon, and according to their site, Sims objects won't be usable in the Sims 2 universe.

In case you care. :)

I never got into Sims, myself. I tried a few times, but it just bored me. Have fun, though.

From:

Well, unless they're going to make Sims 2 usable on an older version of the Mac OS than they've been making their newer expansions, I won't be getting it anyway unless and until we upgrade the computers--which will be a while! But it's good to know--it's good to have something to long for :).

From:

Right now I have just the original and Living Large, which I think is all that will run on Mac OS 8.5. If I upgrade to 9.1 there will be a couple of others I can add, but most of their new ones require at least 9.2 and we can't go any further than 9.1 on our ancient computers.
I thought that would keep me from going too crazy--but if there are downloads... hee hee!

From:

Ah! Living large is fine for most downloads, so you're all good. I have to be honest, I find it harder to maneuver my Sims with Hot Date, but its not so bad with House party.

Whatever you do, get yourself The Sims File Cop from the main sims site. (some other sites have it too, but since its an application I would get it from the main site anyway) it will clear out bad files, skins, objects, walls and stuff like that and make your game less crashable. You also can fix those bad files in many cases.

Otherwise, happy downloading!

Watch for SPYWARE!

From:

File Cop, huh? I will have to look for it. I have definitely been having happy downloading. Got a bunch of stuff last night and my daughter is trying it out on the other computer even as I type on this one.

One downside is that since I read my email on that other computer, I am a little behind on it!
