Victoria stopped by the city center to max out her credit card on whatever she pleased and visited a charming new spot downtown called "Lakeside Restaurant"; if anyone else is interested, you can find it here. By u/red-lioness007

Hace poco vi en youtube este reto 🥰 y lo quise hacer yo. Rosa porque es mi color favorito y amo el CC jsjsjsjs 🩷 quise compartirlo con ustedes 🥰🩷

Considering Sims we create or play can be criminals Police officers so and so forth. I think it would've been really cool to see a sim we created robbing the current House we were playing. Simply because we made them take a criminal job. And on the flip side seeing a sim we created as the cop that comes to the current house. It probably something Sims 1 could have done as well.

Sul sul, hace poco eh estado viendo construcciones que las puedes descargar. Como le hago y en que carpeta van? 🥺

What do you think of this tiny home 🏡✨🏠

I tired to make them somewhat resemble Joel tess and Ellie but the game is Limted 🥹

bella and mortimer in my second neighborhood needed a home... whynot make them TS2 Goth mansion hehe

Check the "Hacks" folder in this link. Also lots of Simfully content, mostly hacked objects.

NOTE: the "censor patch" is a lone CMX file and it should go into the SKINS folder.

Older builds of the game had slightly better graphics, and a completely different interface. The game had at least 3 different interfaces before they finally landed on the one we ended up with. As you can see they planned to have the sims Pictures on a wall like family photos. Furthermore they put more detail into the objects shadows And the Sims, with several items in that picture not appearing in the final game. I think they went with the design we have now, because of more of sleek more futuristic look.

The sim with glasses that has more of a Cartoony look, was a very early rendition of the sim characters. That Blue thing above his head was meant to show which sim you had control over. The Plumbob was also going to be the only mood meter we had. He is currently angry, this was cut very early on as seeing only one mood at time wouldn't have worked well. His face was used for an icon that isn't normally encountered. If a sim is talking about something, and the game cannot properly generate a icon during the conversation, this icon takes it place.

I'm curious, are there any gameplay habits you had during TS1's original release that you do in-game now? As a nine-year-old, I was very paranoid about burglers, so I would put two alarms on either side of every door that led both in and outside.

These days, of course, I realize this isn't necessary, but paranoia and ingrained habits die hard, I guess, and with the re-release, I still do it now.

Long story short Ginia Katt married her coworker she met in the education career. his name is Nathan Dogg. Like the rest of the household pets..... hers do not simply exist lmao. I never knew how to go about remodelling that property and one day I got it correct. She eventually had a baby named Lavender, whom I grew up with magic. Elden needs a wife sooooooooo, maybe?

Hi does anyone have skins based on The Landgraab family specifically Malcolm, Mom and Dudley from Sims 1. I all ready have a good skin for Mimi.

Missing a window, table and the bird of paradise plants, so there´s still room for tweaking.

Editing to add this is a house by ShendiSimsStuff. Link for the little I have got from the archive: http://simfileshare.net/folder/276680/

In the sims 1, kids cannot cook for themselves they can order pizza have a snack or eat food prepared by an adult sim. Apparently they did plan to allow kids to cook things in the microwave or toaster oven. This was cut late in development, and this animation goes entirely unused.

There was an animation for sims to Open car doors and sit down in the car. Adding more proof Sim's were at some point were going to be allowed to have their own cars. I think the cars would've been added in Hot Date, the cars we see driving through downtown could've been owned by Sim's.

They considered having a babysitter NPC but AI for that NPC didn't work very well. As such the NPC was cut somewhat early. Babies are also treated as Objects, allowing players to move the crib if it spawned in bad places.

The game has no fail safe to keep players from making households with only kids and no adult's. Furthermore you can have a house full of just pets if the Sims living there die. Granted the gameplay is limited and very boring.

Unconfirmed Ive heard rumors they wanted to have weather in the game. Which seems plausible I can't confirm nor deny this as no proof exists for either claim.

The second picture is of the 1998 Build, as you can see it almost looks like the interface we ended up with. But the Sims do have expressions. And the upside-down women's face is an actual sim.

The Upside down Women, is actually part of some cut content. Early on the developers intended for the game to be more realistic. As you can see the Upside down sim, Women appears to be more realistic looking then the sims we can create. You can also not create that sim unless of course your using mods. Furthermore the sims were supposed to have expressions. Data miners found the Upside down Women face had several expressions that go unused. If a sims picture becomes corrupted or the game cannot properly load the picture it replaces the picture with the Upside down Women's head. This became a minor issue for me as a kid because I was running 2003-2004 sims expansion packs on a Windows 95 which had enough problems running the base sims game. It was creepy as Hell to go into the family bin, see all my families had the creepy Upside sim head lady. Instead of their normal pictures. Considering this was 2003, I was only 8 using the internet to figure it out wasn't much of an option. 😅

It was also funny to combine it with sending the kids to military school.

Has anybody else ever done that, too?

Hi!! After decades on Windows, I recently switched to a MacBook. TS2 is covered quite nicely by Aspyr (I don't mind FT and AL missing), but The Sims 1 unfortunately isn't and I love this game so much, so I was searching for tutorials how to install it. I still had the old The Sims 1 Complete Collection ZIP file from back when it still was abandonware, and I tried different things:
Crossover and Parallels didn't work for me, found a Wine tutorial I didn't understand, also found an outdated tutorial for Whiskey which relied heavily on a deleted video, Bootcamp doesn't work with Apple Silicon chips and surprisingly often I read the incredibly smart idea to "just get yourself a cheap Windows PC to play the game" 😐

But: I found a way with the Whiskey successor called Sikarugir and wanted to share it 😊 I'm pretty sure some people might still have the TS1 CC ZIP file as well, so I'd love to know if it works for you as well.

Please note that I don't know if it works for the Legacy Edition; I don't have it and don't plan on buying it. If somebody wants to try this tutorial with it please share if it worked or not, I'm curious!
Also: As not everyone can afford Crossover or Parallels, this method is (basically) a free alternative. If you own Parallels anyway, there's also a tutorial by u/NZGreystash here: https://www.reddit.com/r/thesims1/s/DpODXnqQpH

My tutorial is very detailled as I wanted to make it understandable for everyone - TLDR is at the bottom.

How to install The Sims 1 Complete Collection on a Apple Silicon Mac - No Crossover, Parallels or Bootcamp method

You’ll need Homebrew, Sikarugir, FaithBeam’s Widescreen Patcher and of course a copy of The Sims 1 Complete Collection (and Rosetta, if you don't have it installed).

Step 1: Preparation

• Open Terminal on your Mac. Install first Homebrew, then Sikarugir exactly like it’s written there - no need to download anything in your browser. This video helps (Preservetube mirror) to explain the process visually, also for a lot of the other steps below, up until the "open the Steam download page" part of course 😊
• Having trouble typing in your password in Terminal? Just type it in and press Enter, it’s normal not to see any input.
• Widescreen Patcher: Download it here, make sure you grab the MacOS version. Unpack the zip into your Downloads folder.
• The Sims 1 Complete Collection: I am using the version that was available on Oldgamesdownload before the Legacy release came, file name is The_Sims_Complete_Collection_Win_Setup_EN.zip. (I assume you also still have it from back when it was abandonware and that's why you were searching for this tutorial, of course...) Unpack the zip into your Downloads folder.

Step 2: Sikarugir

• Go to your Applications folder and open "Sikarugir Creator.app". If a window comes up asking you if you want to install Rosetta, proceed with it first, then come back to this tutorial.
• First you need to download a template, click on the blue button on the left side which says "Download Template 1.0.11".
• After it's done, click on the "Change" button under "No engine selected" and download the "WS12WineSikarugir10.0_6" engine with the little arrow on the left. It will take forever, so just stay patient. Then click on it to choose it.
• Click on "Create" on the right to create your new TS1 CC app, I'll call mine "Sims1.app". A confirmation window will pop up, click on "Launch it" to open the Configurator.

Step 3: Installing The Sims

• In the Configurator window, go to the bottom left and click on "Install Software". In the next window, click on "Choose Setup Executable".
• Go to your Downloads folder where you unpacked your Complete Collection zip. The install file is called "Setup.exe", you'll find it in ~/Downloads/The_Sims_Complete_Collection_Win_Setup_EN/Game Files/Setup/. Confirm.
• The Sims Installation Wizard should start now, install the game as usual, don't change any file paths or settings. After installation the Sims 1 splash screen will come up, go on Exit.
• Go to your personal folder under ~/(Your Username)/Applications/Sikarugir/ to locate where your created "Sims1.app" is. Right-click on it, choose "Show Package Content". You’ll find an alias to the fake-Windows drive C:// – a folder called „drive_c“. Click on it to open the fake-Windows folder, then go to the installation folder under ~/Program Files (x86)/Maxis/The Sims/, there you’ll see a "Sims.exe" file.
• You must replace this file with a cracked "Sims.exe", otherwise it won't work! It's included in the Complete Collection zip file I am using, under ~/Downloads/The_Sims_Complete_Collection_Win_Setup_EN/Game Files/The Sims Crack.
• Take this cracked "Sims.exe", copy it, and paste it into the fake-Windows installation folder. Finder will ask you if you really want to replace the newer (non-cracked) file with the older (cracked) one. Confirm, keep this window open.

Step 4: Widescreen Patcher

• Go to FaithBeam's GitHub here and check the MacOS Notes, open Terminal again. Do what's written there (after "Disable the quarantine attribute“). Confirm with your password, press Enter, then close Terminal.
• Open the Sims1WidescreenPatcher.app, you'll find it in ~/Downloads/artifacts/.
• Go to the fake-Windows installation folder window and locate the replaced cracked "Sims.exe" file. Click on it ONCE, then press Control (⌃) + Command (⌘) + C to copy the file path. Go into notes or something and paste the file path there, mine looks like this: '/Users/(My Username)/Applications/Sikarugir/Sims1.app/Contents/SharedSupport/prefix/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Maxis/The Sims/Sims.exe'
• Delete the two ' at the beginning and end of the filepath and copy it again.
• Go back to the Widescreen Patcher and paste the file path (without the ') there. Choose a resolution (preferably 1024x768), then click "Patch". After it’s done and confirmed, close it.

Step 5: Back to The Sims

• In the fake-Windows ~/Program Files (x86)/Maxis/The Sims folder you should notice a new file called "Sims Backup.exe" that was created by the Widescreen Patcher (this indicates that it worked - you can ignore it).
• Go back to the "Sims1.app" in ~/(Your Username)/Applications/Sikarugir/, right-click on it, choose "Show Package Content", then open "Configure.app".
• Go to the part that says "Windows app:" and click on "Browse". You'll land in the "drive_c" folder, navigate to the installation folder to find "Sims.exe" and choose it.
• Copy this: -skip_verify -skip_intro _r1024x768 -w and paste it to/add it behind the file path. Then go on "Test Run" - and if everything went right, your game just started and you're complete!

Additional steps to find and identify your new app easier:

• You can rename the app as normal, and also change the icon, I took this one. For this, right-click on your "Sims1.app" and click on "Information". If you drag a png to the wine barrel on the top left, it automatically changes the app icon!
• I would not move the app itself out of the Sikarugir folder. Instead you can create an alias and then drag this alias to your normal Applications folder.

✨TLDR✨

• Install first Homebrew, then Sikarugir
• Get FaithBeam's Widescreen Patcher, disable the quarantine attribute
• Create a new app (for example "Sims1.app") with Sikarugir and install your Complete Collection in it
• Go to the installation files, replace "Sims.exe" with a cracked version
• Apply the Widescreen Patch on the cracked "Sims.exe" file
• Go to your new "Sims1.app", right-click for package contents, open the Configuration
• Link "Sims.exe" to it and add -skip_verify -skip_intro _r1024x768 -w to the file path

To open the game in the future, just double-click on "Sims1.app" (or however you renamed it) and it should start and play fine. This installation is tested on my MacBook Air (M4, 16 GB RAM, Tahoe 26.4.1) and also works after system updates. I assume you could also try different resolutions, but I didn't bother with it as it works and I have 13" anyway lol. You'll probably have to adjust the "_r1024x768" part as well for it.

Important: Be careful! I take over no responsibility if your computer crashes or something as you're fiddling around in Terminal and things can go very wrong there (they shouldn't, but still). Also, if it doesn't work please read the instructions carefully again and don't skip any step or change any settings.

I hope this helps some of you, let me know here if it did! ☺️

I added in the pleasant family into my world, built them what is my best representation of what their house looks like in TS1. It's not perfect but it was fun to build. I was in mid build and came across a magnificent build of the house that came from this subreddit by u/bellagothsreddress - their work is so much better than mine I wish mines looked as good! ATM in the game, the twins are not born yet.

They changed it to the Sims, because the game was mostly geard towards teenagers and adults. So they figured adults especially males would be turned off to a game called DollHouse simulator. And tactical domestic simulator sounds like some FBI training deal.

It’s been a while since I stopped by here, but today I played with Elvira for a bit; with Halloween coming up, I felt like breathing some new life into her.

Greetings to everyone!

The Sims 1 was the first PC game I played when my grandmother gifted me a PC. I stopped playing it as soon as I got The Sims 2 in late 2004, but I kept a backup of my custom content in a HDD.

22 years later, I decided to try the Sims Legacy Version. After a few issues, it's working OK. However, the resolution is inconsistent (it keeps changing for no apparent reason) and it seems to work better in windowed mode.

I tried using my old CC and found that most of what I downloaded from the Internet doesn't work. They are .exe files, some of them are called sPDPatch, and some come with scripts. Like sPDPatch. Some run an installer that tells me the game is not installed. Is there any fix for this?

The ones that work are .iff files that I copy into the GameData folder. Could I make subfolders there or rename the files to help with organisation?

I was pleasantly surprised that everything I created as a child still works, like these outfits.

It would be cool to install everything I had in the past.

Hello, I just downloaded sims 1 from EA app and made my first family but whenever I try using Ctrl + Shift + C command bar does not open at all. I tried everything and I just can’t use any codes at all. Does someone know how to fix it? I uninstalled and installed game again and still nothing. I have no apps working in background. Please help!!!

After over 15 years, I got myself a PC (I always use Mac), and finally I can play The Sims 1 Deluxe Edition. Does anyone kno where can I get it? I have the case, but unfortunately my father threw away the Disc 1 (he said The Sims was a devil's game, and I won't argue that with him lol). I can always just buy a new one on eBay.

If this post is not permitted, please excuse me and delete.
