I was able to get Simitone the latest version working however it REQUIRES using the old exe from version 2 (just overwrite the simitone.windows.exe), and deleting the nodebug piff file found here: Content\Patch\craftingworkbench_nodebug.piff
0. Like said before to fix crash at reticulating splines, first load a regular game add inventory item and save, longer play may be necessary to find the magic compatability recipie.
1, CC will work provided the download folder does not have any far hot hit files
2, far files will work if they are extracted, however it can read the game far fine bug
3. GameData\Skins is very sensitive of what CC skins it will support, a few are usually fine, I haven't tracked down the type of skin content that causes it to crash on loading wardrobe.
I've followed the FreeSO.org project for quite some time, very happy with the results, and appreciative, and thankful to EA for its tolerance and support as well..
***Currently working on getting the Mandrake Gaming Edition version of the sims 1 working on other linux, so far the last version that will work on is the last version of Mandriva rpm distro (OLD like 2010) i think it has something to do with the change from xfree86 to xorg breaks it. Let me know if this would be helpful for this work as well to any of the sub-projects.
