I just wanted to say that I solved my issue. I downloaded the game files with Fatbag's GetTSO.sh. So, the only thing I can assume is that my windows files had something funky happen to them (indexing? maybe the OS compressed it on the disk?) Anyway the game is running and playable with low...

I copied them from my windows install. And yeah I forgot to add the ./ when running it from the folder because in my brain all terminals are DOS 6 and it is still 1999.

If I try to run freeso.command directly from the terminal I am told "command not found" (even if I have changed my directory and the file is listed by ls) however, if I set the permissions for the file to be executable then run it in a terminal that way the game comes up and I get the error...

Trying to run the updater reports that it must run the game to download the files... however, the game throws the error before it can download the files making the update procedure impossible. Also I have tried using sudo and I'm getting the same thing.

Sorry for the double post but here is a screenshot of the error.

I'm getting an error saying that there's additional unparseable characters at the end of the string. I'm not sure where I went wrong, can anyone help?

Will there be support for the following punctuation... » quote « and/or „quote“? Yes this is because German. Also please do not forget the ß.

Hey I see there's a terribly old German translation I can pick up. It's only my second language but it's far easier to edit than translate if a native speaker wishes to improve it later. At the very least I know loöschenn is meant as löschen. Now just to figure out Github...

I'm Leo Grün on the discord and in game.

So after some double checking and experimentation.... The game seems to index the used wallpapers somewhere in the data and then references them by a local id. When wallpapers did render "correctly" I neglected to verify that they were in fact the same as the target lot. They often were not...

@RHY3756547 I copied the resource from a real working lot where the walls were correctly drawn. Unless I'm misunderstanding then the wall patterns should be valid when transplanted to another lot. Some wallpapers would draw correctly, others would not. I did just have a thought I will need to...

By doing resource swapping here's what each arry resource appears to contain in practial terms of the game (this is not decoding but at least I can verify what data appears to be contained in them). 0 - altitude - Terrain Height 1 - floors - floors - If you open the IFF file you may find this...

Rhy suggested I chip in with the sims 1 lot data so here I am. I can say based on spec docs I dug up that simi is the simulation data. However the game engine has a lot of unused "features" which don't explode and can be made to function - such as references to in game weather and temperature -...

I totally understand that! I can possibly answer specific questions or help him throw hex values at the file and see what sticks. Most of what I know about lots is what (surprisingly!) isn't in the lot file. I see there's a thread so I'll pop over to that.

Hey! I'm Damondamore you might know me if you're involved in the sims 1 comuinity as the world's slowest object hacker-- sorry about that I have a day job then I staff a convention and then I hack sims objects. I've worn many hats and as well as still actively hacking for sims 1 I an good with...
