InSimenator
Nov. 28th, 2008 11:13 amI'm assuming everyone knows that InSimenator has been sold? There's some talk of the new owner going pay.
I use the 2.7b DEST edition, which for some reason, gives the SIM options. Weird. I couldn't play without InSim; there are too many things it does that a Mac player can't really do any other way, and it's much better than turning on boolproptestingcheatsenabled true every time I need to use something like that. I just downloaded all three versions of 2.9, just in case Mac owners ever DO get FT and AL. I did the same thing when Squinge did his flounce some time ago; he eventually came back and updated Wear Anything While Pregnant. The old one doesn't work in my game, and I don't use the EP8 and up version, but it's nice to have it, just in case. Frankly, I don't use any Squinge hacks anymore, except for Lord Darcy's prettier version of the Date Counter and the Cheese Counter, which are on MTS2. I used to use MorePetsandFamily, but eventually took it out, because eight or nine sims plus two pets is hair-rippingly stressful, and I decided that the game makers knew what they were doing. But I know some people still love them.
I don't mean to start a panic. The new owner isn't charging right now, and there's no indication that he wants to shut it down. If you do want to snag something just in case, know that the server is going nuts right now with people freaking out about the new owner. It does eventually come back up, so be patient.
Just consider this an FYI.
