No More sims body shop?/Open neighborhood - Truswagga - 20-03-2008 12:42 AM
Well i heard about them taking away the sims body shop which means no more downloading clothes? I love downloading a new varity of clothes. I wonder if its true?
I was thinking about it is open neighborhood and all and maybe we can go to school with our kids because where is the bus suppose to go? disappear out of no where? MAYBE its a possibility? :-\

I cant imagine them doing that - well, if they did, they will surely get a bunch of angry/furiated players. Well, I would most definitely be. Aside from download, we better be able to still create clothes/meshes!

This is a quote from 1UP.
For the home-design-oriented players, The Sims 3 offers increased flexibility to make your own patterns (for complex plaids and paisleys, you can have the computer do the color-matching for you) coupled with the ability to apply them to clothing, hair, or any surface of a piece of furniture, from upholstery to the visible supporting framework. Furniture can be laid out at angles, too.
Plusses: Ain't nothing wrong with more options...and The Sims 3 executive producer Ben Bell says the aim is to make it so that players don't have to have a digital arts degree to make their own stuff.
Potential Pitfalls: Sharing content is a huge, huge, huge deal to Sims players -- and to be honest, we were a bit surprised to find it's not as huge a part of The Sims 3's initial blueprint as we would have guessed. EA's plans definitely involve an online item exchange and a way to sort the good from the bad with a rating system (sort of like YouTube), but beyond that, it's nebulous. High-concept ideas like content pollination and podcast-like subscription (so players can, say, constantly receive new clothing designs from favorite Sims 3 creators) is being left to Spore. For now, at least -- the game's far enough away that anything's possible here.

Atleast they are making things a little more simpler. I alway wanted to use body shop but i never knew how. But i hope they still let us download other custom content from other site other than the sims 3 site
