Character creation is now done. It went surprisingly smooth, taking only a few hours. If transitioning to the CityServer goes as smoothly, the first milestone will be done within the next week.
From there on out, what remains is to go live with the servers, which is an issue in an of itself, as it requires a lot of configuration and general messing about. But the first milestone will go live before Christmas, that is a promise!
Beyond excited for the first milestone! Please keep going to get the Sims Online back online! This is truly amazing and I thank you for all the hard work you have put in to make this possible! I seriously can’t wait!
This is gonna be good guys, please dont stop making this project. This will be amazing. I cant also wait π Lot of simmers will be playing this π Good luck and thanks.
Nice work, Afr0!
Amazing… and perfect!
These updates are so amazing. Cant wait for the milestone! Please keep up what you’re doing.
Nice work guys!
Do we have a rough date for when we can start playing again? π
No. The first milestone will support character creation only. Any actual gameplay is still far away, though we do have lot rendering code already. What’ll take time is implementing the SimAntics VM and all the related networking code.
Afr0 – You and your team are awesome and amazing! Thank you, thank you for ALL your hard work on this! I am feeling hope again LOL So proud of you guys! ^_^
Cant wait, looking forward to It
I can’t wait! Great job guys!!
Keep up the good work…
Looking forward to it! I’m so glad to see this project is still going. I’ve only been following for a few months but I always worry development will just die out one day.
This is great news though! Wish I knew more about network and server handling. >.<
If anything,I know why we can’t have it yet is because we need to find out how to go to a place to Sign Up at and then test Logging In to see if we were successful. Until thats probably done,Maybe we can then play,And create our sims for the moment. But if anything,When first milestone is out,Our way to finally getting gameplay someday in 2014-(hopefully not)2015.
I’ve been following the project for awhile now without commenting, but I have to say I am really excited about the new milestone. What a great Christmas present! Thanks guys!
Fantastic news! I’ve been following TSO Restoration and now Project Dollhouse for about two years now and I’m glad to see some progress. The first milestone is a huge step in development and I couldn’t be happier! Could there be a better Christmas present?
The best of luck, I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult it is programming the game π
I so agree!! Merry Christmas to all! ^_^
Yaay, plus it’s an early Christmas present π THANK YOU Afr0, YOURE AMAZING
THIS IS SO AWSOME KEEP IT UP BRO!!!!
This is very good to hear!, finally on to working on the actual city side part of the game now yes? π
Wow! This is amazing you guys! You’ve been working extremely hard on this! I’m so impressed you guys! I love it! You guys rock!
Tori Sim TSO ^_^
Great!
Impressive!! I’m really excited!!
My heart sank when the TSO RESTORATION PROJECT crashed. I still dream of the day when TSO finally returns. I’m not holding my breath but I still have hope. lol (No pun intended.)
I lost hope in the restoration when tsk restoration was canceled , but now looking at what you’ve done afr0 I finally see hope in playing tso again . Thank you and keep doing what u do. Can’t wait.

Well……it’s Christmas……
Good to hear. I’ll play when it’s finished. I can’t wait!
My wife peed herself a little when we found this. When I tried to run the client, it said that there were no EA products installed. What do we need to do to run the client (I have repeatedly told her that it is only in testing phase still, but she insists on trying it out)?
Install The Sims Online using the discs…
It asked for her account information, which no longer exists. What do we need to do?
Be patient. Just a few more days now… I just need to figure out why clients cannot connect to the Loginserver π
AH, PS: Of COURSE she still has the Sims Online installation disks.
Also, I am a C# programmer, but I don’t have any experience with XNA (as a matter of fact, I only have about 2 years experience). I might be interested in helping out with coding this project sometime later this year (it being new years day 2014 right now), if you could point me to some relevant resources to study to bring myself up to speed.
Any idea when we can play?
