Hiya. I’ve put the Visual Basic modules (provided by Judson Hudson) online so you can check it out. They include 3 sample programs (I could only compile 2 of them though) that use the modules and show you how to open IFF files and display some of the contents. Please note that these are not supported by Tom or myself so please don’t email us about them. You can find them on the Tech Data page at the bottom.

Also the forums have got the final facelift and are now seamlessly integrated with the site. Gotta love cutting and pasting dozens of lines of HTML onto another persons site. Anyways, looks pretty cool so check it out (and feel free to post a message while you’re at it).

Lastly, please stop emailing me about when a certain program is going to be released. Sorry but lately I’ve been getting swamped with these. If you go to a page with a download link, then the program is ready and you can download it. If it says “Coming soon” then it means just that. And soon is of course a relative term as some people will attest to. When a new or updated tool is released, you’ll hear about it here first. Thanks.

Hi guys.

A couple things for my update today. There was one planned update and one unplanned and as of 11:01 PM tonight (that’s now) I haven’t done either. There are some VB (Visual Basic) modules that Judson Hudson has provided which will give programmers access to IFF files so you can do your own tweaking. This should help people write new utilties for The Sims if you know VB. Anyways, I’ll get those online tommorow hopefully. I haven’t had time to look them over yet and get some (informal) documentation around them.

I’ve sent out all the beta test agreements for all the new apps that I’m writing (yes, it’s taken a long time yell at my appendix if it still bothers you) so now that the agreements are out and we’re just finishing up the new bug tracking database (I had to modify it to handle all the new apps) we should get going shortly with that.

Lastly, both Tom and I recieved a Sims Oscar award that we’ll be adding to the contacts page (or perhaps making an “awards” page but those are so ego-centric). I’m a little confused though because I thought the awards were already over in February and I won 2nd place or something. Now I got the gold award and Tom the silver. Oh well. Praise is praise. Feel free to send us any more awards you feel are deserved (or money if you really want to impress us). Seeya!
