The Sims 1 has many programs that can help users create new mods to fit in it. And as strange as this might sound, the best mods ever have been made for the original [[The Sims]]. IFF Pencil is one of the most famous programs ever created to help you edit .IFF files, so that you can change object and interaction values, or even create your own. It is also useful to create skins. Also, the programs FAR In and FAR Out can help you into compressing tons of .IFF files in one .FAR file. Or you might need to edit and .IFF file inside a .FAR one. These will work. But not for Mac. If you are running an Apple Computer, I would recommend IFFSnooper and FAR Maker. |

[[The Sims 3]] and [[The Sims Medieval]] games are the newest additions to The Sims series. This is also the first time EA ever develops itself programs for customizing your game, namely, Create a World and Create a Pattern. However, this has not stopped other programs from being developed. Sim3PE is one of the most famous Sims 3 Editors. However, I have to say it is not as simple and beautiful as SimPE was for Sims 2, however starts to be one of the fastest tools ever made. Extract a resource, edit, and compress it in a package. As simple as ever. The sooner you get it, the best for you. |
