So What is The Gims?
It's a gmod take on the sims quite simply. I made this before and to be honest it was a total disaster. it didn't work properly in single player and there where loads of bugs and it did not work at all in multi-player. Not this time though i have put alot of thought into how i was going to do it this time.
Last time you where just a player in noclip and you pressed E to tell the gim where to go. Even this was bugged you could not walk more than a few steps before the gim would just stop in its tracks. This time however it is a top-down camera and you use the mouse to guide the gim, using left click to tell them where to go and right click to bring up a menu of using things, as seen in this picture:

Last time the map was just 1 house quite small cosy but hard to move around in, especially with the old Gim. Now i have a large map and i can tell my gim to go from 1 end to the other and it won't even stop.

Anything you say will appear above your head as seen in not very good detail in the picture below:

is it also possible to play this in first person?
Has anyone tried this? Looks pretty cool in my opinion.
[QUOTE=timgames;14015290]is it also possible to play this in first person?[/QUOTE]
no its not ment to be first person. thats why its top down :)
Wow, this is kickass
Alot of work went into this.
Online?
Svn version?? make a SVN version for players plz!
WOOT!
It's released!!!
Hey does it work multiplayer?
Can you actually use the Rest options and Toilet options without falling on the floor and dying?
If it works in multiplayer, it so gets my download.
Yes it works in multi player and no you don't die.
No server's up though :'( looking forward to seeing some.
I don't suppose you could post a link to one of these house maps, could you? (seeing as this comes with no maps)
Wait, there's a map in the "content" folder, nvm. I had to take it (and the materials and sound) out of the content folder for it to see the map.
But my GMod doesn't seem to see the game mode, I thought just placing the The_Gims folder in addons should have worked...
I need to see if this is playable before I approve your article.
Edit: Disregard the above, it was the gamemodes folder I should have placed it in, not addons... stupid me, I should have read closer.
Lol :)
Ok, approved your article, ignore my stupid fit of confusion I had :-P
awesome, just saw it on gmod.org a second ago
Now only build your own house is missing then I would try. But still, really nice work.
You got my download, my approval and my babys!
Nice.
The Sims isn't top-down. o_O

Well, when Sims is viewed an isometric angle, the front walls disappear so you can see inside the room. That'd probably be difficult to do on here, so top down makes it easier.
Looks to be a promising mod! I'll try it out in a few
Will you be able to buy furniture and go to work soon to get monies?
Quite nice, But you can spam songs on the radio which makes the server lag.
This is epic, but yea, what Yawn said, cus he crashed me :D
I can't seem to get the map working. Suggestions?
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!
