I'm finishing up my radio show shift on www.insaneasylumradio.com as I write this. It's 2:15am right now.
This has been a busy couple of weeks for my website. Since I have been out of work in RL during this time, I made use of it to spend time with my family and the website.
I've got quite a few chapters uploaded of my original "road trip" series from The Sims Online. It's nice to re-read these, because it really brings back the fun memories I had in that game. Ever since they closed TSO, there just hasn't been another game quite like it. I tried out Tirnua today, but thought it was kinda... bleh.
I also got more things uploaded to the TSO Memorial page. All the wallpapers and floor tiles are now converted. Everything else that was in TSO was all from expansion packs. I will be including a list of all the wallpaper and floor tiles and where you can find them all. I think some out there will find this list useful.
I've also converted four awnings from TSO for the offline game. 3 out of 4 of these awnings give a room score, which is accurate to TSO. I've also started converting skins from TSO to regular sims. These files need to be extracted and then converted to 8 bit, plus renamed, in order to work properly. I wanted to start with the skins I used in TSO, so that I had them for my game. I'll be doing more, but my goodness there is a LOT of skins to convert!
I have plans to wrap up my Pet Statue and release it. I need to get it out and move on. I can go back to it later if I get the files I need to perfect it. The ATM object is also my next project I'll be working on, and that'll be fun with the ideas that I have.
The 2 person portal is going to take awhile. Just trying to piece all the graphics together....eeek. I'll be happy just to get the object to SHOW UP in the game. Then I'll worry about getting it to do something.
I'm kinda going through the alphabet at this point with TSO objects. So, soon I'll be working on "B" objects.
