    2 Questions for Rhys :)

    1. From this attempt, I'd say you need at least a 5 year background in programming, 3 years to spare, people to help you along the way, and some kind of dedication. If you have all of these things, go for it, and I'll see you in 3 years. 2. Yes, but this would go directly against EA's requests...

    Continued: Picures with information about skill and money improvement

    Continuing to paint group money objects and online jobs as "de-socializing" the game is just de-legitimising your opinions.

    Seeing FreeSO 3d for the first time

    Was wondering why I couldn't hear your voice at all. Nice look around though, but it doesn't look like you figured out you can use middle mouse to pan.

    How Can I Enable 3D Mode Without Launcher

    You can simply make a shortcut. Right click -> create shortcut.

    Wiki Page

    There's a wiki page on our GitHub repo explaining the basics of how all this works. We still need tutorials on how to bake lighting and stuff, but you guys can make those ;). https://github.com/riperiperi/FreeSO/wiki/3D-Remeshing

    Cannot Login after new update ?

    It's definitely not down, and nothing has changed in the netcode.

    Text going blurry

    Sim birthday is an extrapolation based on age in days, it is likely to be inaccurate.

    I can't log into my main sim "TheSimsFan"

    Whatever this is, it's really stupid. Closing.

    Error when trying to launch

    Has this been resolved? I believe the problem was missing graphics drivers.

    Install problem, new user

    I'm not sure if Sim's launcher supports vista, since it's such an unusual case now. Check if you have all the updates and service packs for vista.

    Crashes upon starting

    I don't believe your graphics card correctly supports opengl 3, or even the DX11 backwards compatability mode (DX9). Your best bet would be updating graphics drivers.

    Is playing another Sim allowed?

    You are allowed to play the other sims in your account, you are just not allowed to play both at the same time.

    I can't log into my main sim "TheSimsFan"

    It is permanant. We are very clear about avoiding lot bans using alternate sims, especially creating a ridiculous number of them. There is no way you couldn't have known this was disallowed. For more information see: http://freeso.org/rules-terms-of-service/ ...or next time just use common sense.

    Thesis: Proposal to boost FreeSo player retention

    Your last paragraph is a little annoying. This project is first and foremost about reviving The Sims Online in its entirety - telling us to work on new features before completing this isn't going to make it happen. It takes enough time implementing the original features. Pizza is not meant to be...

    Thesis: Proposal to boost FreeSo player retention

    Fantastic, that's the first time in 3 years someone has actually tried justifying anything. Skill specialisation is definitely causing problems at this number of players, and because skills are so unbalanced anyways. Doesn't help that people are "waiting for the wipe", which might as well just...

    Banned

    If it was back in may, then I'd assume so.

    Text going blurry

    You'll probably have to boot windows directly if you are trying to use a mac. There's not much way around the high VRAM usage of FreeSO, apart from real-time texture compression which could prove slow and ugly.

    Thesis: Proposal to boost FreeSo player retention

    I'd prefer if you actually thought about this and posted a detailed thread, rather than "make skill objects easier".

    Found something cool will it return?

    I think The Architect might have been working on this, but he hasnt been here in a while.

    Can skill houses be given more visitor payout?

    From an actual game design perspective there should be no infinite money fountain, so really hosting any kind of lot should be able to become a money sink if you dont do it right. Don't be an absolute tool trevor, I'll care about what you say when it isn't "let's make everything exactly as it...
