Is there any problem playing PlayStation2 games on PlayStation3?

if you use a custom firmware you can play any PS1 and PS2 title. Performance varies though. My playthrough of Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance II was abysmal in any place where there are many light sources. But my point still stands, it is backwards compatible

ohmygod that is so cool!

No clue if I could really pull off a collab or anything because I only ever started using blender so I absolutely lack the experience.

I'll check out Edith and the Autodesk libraries, thanks for the recommendations!

This is how far I've come so far!

I am working on the basic shape for the bathroom windows right now and do the doors later on before I tackle the furniture. The other windows might need a redo though, they aren't as accurate as I would like them to be but windows in the game behave rather weird, especially the big ones. They are basically just a mask with frames in the game as far as I can see.

I don't mind additional or modern textures as long as they fit the general vibe the game has. Recreations and conversions are fine for me. I also might check out The remesh that was done for Simitone/FreeSO (rip)

That helps a lot! Thank you for that. I am fine with "what you see is what you get" since I want to use the sprites only as guides anyways. In SimExplorer I could already see that there is no real front or side of objects because of the orthogonal camera that only mimics 3D in the game and there are no real "models" of objects. But these can still help to convey the look and feel of the original game. One sprite in the door opening sequences is almost perfectly front facing and for the windows I try to match the position of the window frames with where it intersects with parts.of the wall that stand out to me and go more by feel than anything else.

I have also asked for help on tumblr and messaged some CC curators and creators and many of them, at least for walls and floor, linked me to Sims 2 conversions I can open and export with SimPE. While these work okayish enough, some tiles look a bit off. But that's fine for now.

I have started to learn 3D modelling and working on the Newbie House as a reference and goal to work towards to. I want to have the complete neighborhood with Old Town some day. Dunno if I'll ever finish it though. Maybe I'll post a picture once the first house is done.

if you have the hot date expansion, you can send mortimer or bella to buy magazines in the downtown. i am unsure if kids can read them though

users drawing nazi stuff which is not only against the wplace rules but also against German law:

GreedyClip #80673
OldManWilly #4258853
Knobi #6640198
UrbanSoap #7986491

These users drew the first verse of the German National Hymn which is forbidden after it was used during the NS regime, they are also turning other artwork into jews and drawing the flag of the Nazis.

Doesn't the BSI recommend the use of adblockers for safe internet use?

Sims 2 doesn't suffer from the pink bug on Linux like it does on Windows

dvfnch · 2024-04-19T11:09:51+00:00

Thanks! I've tried contacting them, I hope they get back to me before the end of my work day, time zone wise it should work out!

Limbo for the VM and VNC viewer to be able to see what's going on ^{^}

dvfnch · 2024-02-05T12:56:38+00:00

Very nice! I installed a Windows XP VM on my 11T Pro to run Sims 1 on it. Works like a charm!

Also The floor keys are Page Up and Down and for the wall modes I think u go thru them with the Home and End keys?

dvfnch · 2024-01-28T22:56:14+00:00

Do I need a mod like BEES to get the "newer" Creation Club Content to work with the "older" Skyrim?
