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. 😉
