Since FreeSO was a full recreation of the engine that simply read and presented The Sims Online's content, a lot of the charm and quirks of the original were lost or reinterpreted, which left FreeSO feeling a bit different. It's nice to see some of that here, so far in advance of the public release.

@bsiquikc.bsky.social made a great video covering his progress building a server emulator for The Sims Online's Pre-Alpha build. It's super interesting seeing everything that was scrapped or changed, and the original netcode/gameplay functional after all these years.

mario kart world's title screen would be so much better if it had all of his friends circle him one by one and pelt him with infinite green shells

It might have just been fixed by driver 572.60, released today...

It seems to be an issue when the present method is "layered on DXGI swapchain" or when "auto" decides to use that. Try switching it to "prefer native":

If you're seeing an issue where it looks like edges in the UI are getting jumbled, it looks like changing "Vulkan/OpenGL present method" to "Prefer native" in the NVIDIA Control Panel avoids the issue for now. Hopefully NVIDIA correct this in a driver update.

Somehow, The Sims 1 now has a Vulkan renderer... I spent the weekend taking a look at it: gist.github.com/riperiperi/7...

Yo! At the time I am writing this, FreeSO officially shut down about a month ago. I started making remeshes a little over seven years ago when 3D mode first released as a way to contribute to a game that I loved and to hone my 3D modeling and texturing skills. 1/5
