Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

The homepage describes an unofficial .NET engine for The Sims 3 that uses files from a player’s existing installation; old-save support and multiplayer remain goals.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.
For
The Sims 3 players with existing installations
Worth noticing
As of 25 October 2026, the page lists Sunset Valley, build-and-buy actions, game time, and several Sim behaviors as working.

Field notes

The project’s status page says its engine can launch without the original executable or EA launcher, load Sunset Valley, and handle basic purchase, construction, and time controls. It also lists Sims walking around and performing a few routine actions. Existing saves have not been implemented, mods have not been tested, and multiplayer work has not begun; those remain roadmap items.
