San Marina Set to Be Released Soon!

 San Marina, the world that's been WIP for quite some time now, will be released soon!

San Marina Now 99.99% Complete

After two plus years of development, San Marina, the latest Sims 3 world from The Sims Depot, is very nearly complete. Lots and placement of world objects are finished. What's left to do is to build households, tweak interiors and fix minor routing issues. 

Working on Oceanview, Remastered

Oceanview, the first world released by The Sims Depot, has been in need of a major overhaul for some time now. The reason is that it had a few errors, was sparsely decorated, was made with the 1.63 version of Create a World and wasn't built with Island Paradise in mind. In the remastered version, players who have IP will finally be able to add houseboats and ports, and the interior of houses should be better decorated. There will also be a few extra surprises (which I don't want to spoil, naturally). Curious? You can learn more here.

Some Updates to San Marina

 As promised, work on San Marina has been progressing steadily. The world really does look to be released in the summer, provided I don't get struck by lightning. Below are screenshots from the latest playtesting session:

Video Preview of San Marina #1: Mini Preview

Below is a video preview of San Marina from three months ago (January 13, 2024), when it was at 80% completion. Here, you'll see a flyover of the world. As you can see, I had yet to put in spawners and some areas were still completed. Nevertheless, the world's come a long way since this preview, so there'll be a few changes in the official release. 😉

San Marina (Sims 3 WIP) is at 90% Completion

San Marina, the latest Sims 3 world from The Sims Depot, is now at 90% completion. Below are some recent screenshots to give you an idea of where the world is at. At the moment, these will all be from above ground so as not to spoil locations and lots for new players. 

Without further ado:

More Screenshots from San Marina, WIP

 I've been playtesting San Marina again this past week, and the world is passing with flying colors in terms of routing and lag, although it might struggle a little on low end machines. As you can see, it's also finally filling out nicely. Below are some screenshots from the latest playtesting session:
