Hey, now this I hadn’t spotted. EA have released a beta version of its Sims 3 ‘Create A World’ tool, which appears to do exactly what it says on the tin. It might be a little removed from usual mod-stuff, but from the looks of it this world-builder is a surprisingly nifty little program, and plenty versatile. I mean, you can apparently do stuff like the above. “Download for free and step into the shoes of The Sims 3 development team by using the same tools the team uses to create worlds and towns for The Sims 3,” says the website. I don’t have a copy of The Sims 3, but I’d be curious to hear what this is like from anyone who does.
Grab it here (via Rock, Paper, Shotgun).
The Sims is my guilty pleasure and one that I return to every once in a while. This sounds like a good time to give it another shot!
This looks awesome, I’ll certainly be giving it a go.
