Its not rocket science. No need to faff about with disabling UAC which is a terrible thing to do from a security standpoint. Also, compatibility mode isn't enough to get this game to work.

There are multiple howtos and patches to get this game to work on modern hardware. Just googles "Sims 1 windows 10", the first link will probably be to a howto at SimsVIP, which is adequate.

To use dgVoodoo, simply download the application, then copy the. Message to EA and possibly other people who are wondering: This upload is for purely for preservation reasons only, and I would like to say, that the state most old games are in is laughably bad, most of them being lost to time, even the famous ones such as Sims 1, which isn't being sold at all by EA, and they've seemingly stopped caring about it.

This is my message towards whoever cares, to start taking game preservation seriously, without it, one day our favorite games, will be only available and if lucky, only on online used stores such as Ebay at exorbitant prices, which will exclude most people from playing old games, and inevitably, cause the game to disappear forever once a collector, buys said game, and it rots forever on their shelf as the game becomes forgotten.

On running the game: I would not advise on using patches such as one for widescreen, or installing the game via the "start" executable, the way I did it, and worked flawlessly for me, was to install it via the setup, after install, applied the nocd patch which is included in the upload, then use dgVoodoo2 as I have described earlier in this description, apply Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode to "sims.

Play the game as it was intended. Well, maybe not addictive, but I don't mind playing it. I am also surprised at its wide audience appeal. My real-world-wife doesn't play computer games. She doesn't enjoy computer games. But The Sims is very different. I can't keep her away and now she's neglecting housework and our kids go hungry and unbathed. She's probably spent more time with The Sims than she has with her family in the past week.

The Sims is also one of the more-polished games I've played. I downloaded new furniture from The Sims ' web site. I downloaded new skins from a fan site. With this expandable game engine, fans will quickly enhance the game in ways the designers never imagined. I have already seen Star Wars skins, log cabin houses, and a variety of interior decoration schemes.

On the negative side, as with most of Maxis ' games, a higher-goal never materializes. Once you've played through the life-cycle of a family you won't get much else from the game playing again. The game sometimes feels a bit too tedious.

Instead of telling a Sim to "Clean the kitchen" you must select each individual dish to clean. It's not any fun to point and click, yet this happens far too often. As a result, practically every gamer will eventually hire a maid for housework and a gardener for yard work. Two other activities also take up too much of your time: bathing and using the toilet.

While I agree these are both important and sometimes pleasant activities, The Sims should have a bit more autonomy with these actions. Instead, the game never rises above the micro-management details of everyday life.

I want that level of control, but I'd also like to take a more general approach to some actions. You can't let your Sims coast even for a day without unpredictable consequences. Finally, cheating is not only helpful, but also downright essential for success. Some career paths require a large number of family friends. If you haven't yet built a neighborhood of families, your Sim can never advance. To fix that problem, build a house for "The Friendlies" and stuff it full of happy, friendly people.

Then return control back to your main family and start making friends. Fortunately, cheating doesn't ruin the game. Even with the money cheat enabled, your life becomes only slightly more tolerable. Everyone still uses the toilet regardless of income. The Sims is not fun; it is not a game; and is definitely worth buying.

Just keep it away from the wife. The Sims has an addon available: The Sims: Unleashed , don't miss it! Screenshots from MobyGames. I've downloaded it, opened it, and its just a folder full of files!
