We have a large selection of downloads and programs available for the original The Sims game, which was released back in 2000!
These archives include object editors, patches, useful tools, and much more to enhance your experience!
Many of these tools were created in the early 2000s, when the primary operating systems in use were Windows 98/ME/XP. Therefore we can not guarantee that these will work as intended on modern operating systems or offer any support.
Whilst we have virus scanned all content, we take no responsibility for the content of downloads.
