Okay, I'm gonna be real with you. I've been
playing The Sims for a long time. I've
collected a LOT of custom content. However,
I'm not a computer scientist. I think I'm
pretty good at figuring stuff out and I've
got a pretty good grasp on archiving now.
However, make no mistake this is a pretty
small dog and pony show. I've had a lot of
help along the way, there have been a lot of
people who have contributed time and working
into this project. However, as far as
understanding the tech, finding the content,
and then trying to figure out how to scrape
it? That's been mostly up to me. While
Paulette has been a major help in the
beginning when the organizing began, there's
only so much we can realistically do.
There are likely hundreds of thousands of
pieces of custom content still online. While
this might be one of the largest archives of
content that isn't just a fansite where
creators upload their work (without that
superlative we're much smaller that TSR and
MTS, probably) we're realistically not
capable of organizing in a way that is
particularly user friendly. In fact, we're
probably less user-friendly than Pescado's
PMBD. A lot of these files do not have
photos. There's no real information on what
meshes might be missing or details one what
you need.
Then, this isn't really a site for
"shopping" for content. You're here because
you NEEDED something you can't fine else
where. You were looking for a mesh and you
may have known a filename or at least
creator.
