Parsimonious sims 1

It won't run on my aging laptop with it's dying graphics card, but having coaxed it's predecessor back into life with a clean install and many, many days of updates, I have finally had an opportunity to have a look at the game. And my conclusion is that The Sims 4 Studio is a great creative tool that I've very much enjoyed using and am happy to spend some more time with I have a to-do list of site related chores and content projects which could literally take me a decade, but I have found some time to make a few walls and floors which you can download here.

It's been a bigger job than expected, but finally Parsimonious is getting up to date with the EU's annoying legislation regarding cookies. There may be some disruption to the site whilst this change is being carried out.

Ironically Parsimonious doesn't use cookies within the actual website part all the bits we have anything to do with , but because our advertising networks do, we are required to have a cookie which asks you if you agree to using cookies or not Who knows A small word of warning that there is likely to be disruption to the site whilst a new version is installed, as yet I don't have an estimated date, but it should be within the next couple of months and will see downloads for other games and additional content being moved to Parsimonious from other sites which I have closed.

This will not include any content for Rollercoaster Tycoon World because that game clearly sucks and I don't want anything to do with it! I am still getting a lot of messages from visitors expressing an interest in Parsimonious content for The Sims 4, however we do not have any creators who make content for The Sims 4. I am certainly too busy to make Sims 4 content myself, I don't own The Sims 4 and my ancient laptop wouldn't run it anyway even if I did!

First of all the completely redundant menu has been removed from this page - there's a menu at the top of this page already, just as there is on every other page. Today I've made some aesthetic changes to the top menu in the expectation of adding new sections for other games, arts, crafts and other sundry shenanigans. The second piece of mind-numbing administrative nonsense is that this site is now officially no longer supporting IE 7.

I have removed the style-sheet that was attempting to magic the site workable to IE7 users, so if you're the sort of feckless wondertard that thinks having a browser that was dangerously out-of-date 5 years ago is somehow 'retro' or 'rebellious' - please go away - we don't want you here any more.

Returning visitors may have noticed I've been AWOL for a long while and recently I've had a lot of emails asking me about Sims 4 content. For the first time since the series started I have not bought EA's newest Sims offering, it simply wasn't good enough.

It is, of course, not just about the money. And for all you EA apologists out there, it might well be 'just a computer game' BUT for me the central issue is lack of choice. We have the right to care about what we spent our time and our money on.

As consumers, if we dislike a 'new and improved' product, be it washing liquid, or pasta sauce, or toilet roll etc, we can switch brands. But what happens if the publisher of our favorite people simulator game makes a version which is old and inferior and crashes every 20 minutes? We either pay for a product which is inadequate, and which will cost extra to 'put right' via DLC, or we must live without it. If you've been stuck staring at a plain black screen instead of The Sims 1 since upgrading to Windows 10 then try the following quick and easy fix!

A few people have also contacted me asking about installation problems under Windows 10 - unfortunately not a lot has changed there - all the old installation problems that happened with every previous operating system are cropping up again. My advice is that if you want to reduce installation related suffering then getting a copy of The Sims Complete collection is preferable to using individual packs.

Prices are low for second hand copies on Ebay if the full priced Complete Collection is too expensive. Just remember to ask the seller for photos of the shiny side of the discs before you buy if you are in any way concerned about scratched or broken discs! Fridge Makin Magic. Nectar Bar Makin Magic.
