The Sims 1 - Practical Goodies and Tips For Building Houses - RetroSimsMods - Custom Content for your Cherished Classics. Finding objects and tips for building houses in The Sims 1 can be quite difficult in my experience, especially some of the more sophisticated ways of building. So I decided to

#Building in #TheSims1, and having difficulty finding back specific wallpapers and/or floors you've used in your build? Or perhaps searching for invisible floors or other #objects?

Just wrote some #tips you may find useful, check them out below and happy Retro Simming! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘‡

If you find more Sims focused accounts who post regularly, just tell me ๐Ÿ˜Š I can add 18 more

With โ€œaccountsโ€ I mean that they donโ€™t have to be personal accounts, I can also add accounts run by several simmers and several accounts from the same simmer, as long as they post Sims stuff ๐Ÿ™‚

Wonderful idea! If you'd like, you can add my account to it. I'm creating new houses for The Sims 1 and 2, and I'm working on creating objects and guides for my site too. ๐Ÿ˜

Yup, didn't remember playing it all that much but it popped up in my brain. Like, oh that art style actually looked pretty neat! Would also be interesting to port that 'look' over to The Sims 1 sometime, like the objects and stuff. Future plans maybeโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜‹

So I made github.com/RetroSimsMod.... It downloads the required files to a folder for local storage. By checking 'Install Starter Pack Files', it will copy the files over to the folder, after which you can use the Offline Installer I just linked to.

Hope this helps! :)

Hey, totally get it! Would it help if I make an installer that downloads & copies the required files automatically inside the Origin directory? Can't promise anything, but I can give it a try. Graphics Rules still needs installing manually though.

Can confirm this is a great place to find out how to get games working on modern PCs! Personally had success w/ 'Sims2 EP 9' (search on Archive.org, underneath Wayback, also works on Origin version to make it 'DRM-free'), and Graphics Rules Maker. Good luck, lmk if you have any questions ๐Ÿ˜
