Saturday, December 13, 2003 - 22:00

Hello everyone.

We had a big week here at Maxis and have a few things we would like to share with you so let's get started.

It is all about building, both inside and out, this week in The Sims 2. View the images below see a few fabulous new options for building and customizing your Sims' dream home.

The assets depict a serene Asian-themed bedroom, as well as the ultimate in-door/out-door living space with a sumptuous kitchen that over-looks a pool area. The last asset depicts a comparison of a swanky bachelor pad to a sophisticated Tudor abode. Building in The Sims 2 has reached a whole new level of realism and design with the hundreds of customization options we will be providing you.

Get out your calendars. Next Thursday, make sure you don't miss the live-chat with Senior Producer, Tim LeTourneau. He will be available to answer all of your latest burning questions about the game at 3:00PM PST.

The team is making great progress finishing the game, check out Gamespot next week for the latest installment of The Sims 2 Designer Diary. We will be announcing some exciting information to the public about a revolutionary new game feature. Some of you were lucky enough to preview this at The Sims 2 U but for those of you who weren't, don't miss this story!

I apologize that we did not release CASIE yet. We have made some code changes to improve game speed and make custom content easier to make for 3D heads. Those changes were not compatible with Casie, so we have to update the code. We are trying to give you a tool that will be as likely as possible to generate content compatible with the game that ships.

Stay tuned for more details next week!

That's all for now.

Cheers,

Luc
