What works
- Installing the game
- Launching the game with these options : -skip_intro (because the intro makes the game crash), -skip_verify (to force the game not to run in 16 bit colors)
- Playing the game a little
What does not
The Sims models don't render, they use a white texture instead. The same goes for animals.
This problems occurs while playing with a family or while creating a family.
The houses textures can also be buggy when saved, for example the rooftop is totally white or misplaced.
Some report that you can't make Sims interact with each other but I succeeded so I don't know if it's a common problem.
Workarounds
What was not tested
