GUID Database Revival

I've finished setting up a way to revive the GUID database, albeit not an automatic one, it is low-key, but rather simple. Instructions are on the pinned post. [It's a Dreamwidth community, basically one webpage where people can dump their GUID info, straight from Excel or a list].

It is searchable with multi search add-ons for browser. Search for multiple entries in one go.

Avoid conflicts with originally registered GUIDs (Not foolproof; assuming GUIDs where assigned in a certain way).

Avoid conflicts with new random GUIDs (that are in the DB).

Creators are indexed - see if your favorite active creators are on there.

Everyone can join, but only members can post. Happy Simming! https://sims2-guid-database.dreamwidth.org/ Example:

Episode 7 of the 'Antique Adornments' series. How many more to come? Oh, that's a good question! 💭

The Conclave fandom on Twitter appears to be in a crisis of tone (and whether its appropriate to be posting priest yaoi rn) and it's the most entertaining thing I've seen in fandom this year

Looking for Sims files

Hi,

I run a website called The Sims Graveyard.

http://thesimsgraveyard.com/

I am always looking for files from creators/websites that have left or disappeared from the community to ensure that their work doesn't get lost. Anything from Sims2, Sims3, or Sims4.

I will always have a running list of "missing" creators/websites on the graveyard website, but I will also be posting individual WCIF posts here on tumblr, hoping that maybe someone on tumblr has the files who maybe hasn't been to the website, or people can share my WCIF posts and maybe it will reach someone else who does have the files.

I am strictly using this for WCIF posts, please communicate with me through my website for anything else. Thank you!

The Sims 2 Legacy Collection - Essential Mods Masterlist

by Jawusa in Sims 2

Great list. Saving for later.

Oh, that's interesting. first time I'm hearing that claim. Now i understand what happened. in my legacy edition copy, I did notice a change to the graphic settings, but thought it was done by someone else, not EA. on the log it states that I have a slightly different card than what I actually have, and it did surprise me they didn't add mine to the pool, i was wondering what's that about. I tried to add mine manually, worrying its absence would cause issues, but it didn't change when I've added mine. I had no problems with it, so I just left it as it is.

Side note: I left this copy for testing (and forgot about it actually), I don't play it if I can help it, so there are hardly any mods on it.

Okay, I compared the Graphics Rules.sgr and Video Cards.sgr with the Ultimate Collection

They did EXACTLY what my brother has been saying for months but people have been debating him over it and didn't want to believe him

The new video cards.sgr doesn't include ANY new graphics cards. Wanna know why? Because the game doesn't fucking care. He has been saying for months that it doesn't care and that adding it via GRM doesn't do anything, it can actually potentially make it worse.

What they DID do is take out all the hacky stuff in the Graphics Rules.sgr to prevent the game from turning on and off certain settings depending on your hardware and software config. That's what I did as well, months ago, because he said it is the smarter solution.

Good one! that's a neat find.

I keep coming across the simmer who’s responsible for this shitshow, so a friendly reminder, watch out. She’s still active:
