NOTE! Currently does not support the entire Fame career track, saving on vacation and a few other important things. While all objects run, many of them have bugs that can make certain lot types unplayable. For current development progress, see [this issue.](https://github.com/riperiperi/Simitone/issues/8)

# Purpose
|
|
|
|
On modern operating systems, The Sims has a few nagging issues that make it less than playable. Simitone can be seen as a tool to improve the playability of your existing installation of The Sims. Here are some features:
|
|
|
|
- Playable in 3D - using a combination of models generated from the 2D sprites and created by the community.
|
|
- [Download the mesh pack here!](http://forum.freeso.org/forums/3d-remeshing.40/)
|
|
- Custom user interface that works at modern resolutions. Working on a more desktop oriented interface.
|
|
- Improved graphical performance, support for high resolutions and refresh rates.
|
|
- Custom lighting - directional lights with smooth falloffs and shadows using generated 3D meshes.
|
|
- *Volcanic*, a program which allows you to examine, modify and create new game objects. (from FreeSO)

# Why is it called Simitone?
|
|
|
|
Simitone -> Semitone -> musical term -> C# -> a note
