So I did a thing. You know the old sims 2 database app? Sims2DB?
You know, the super powerful program Pegasys made back in 2006 to track your sims' genetics, businesses, family trees and a ton more? The one that could download the info of all your sims via SimPE, but that part of it and some other parts don't work anymore?
I became obsessed with it a few days ago and decided to see if I could crack it open. And after two (2) full days of staring at filemaker pro..
I present to you: Open Sims2DB
Before you get too excited, a huge disclaimer: I am not the original creator of the program, I just opened it so we could make it work again. All credit for this tool goes to Pegasys. I just did some digital thingamajig and broke the digital lock they put on it. This is a community preservation project, not my original work.
The good news: The files are completely unlocked. All the layouts, scripts, and everything are accessible.
The... Other news: I am, to put it mildly, in way over my head. I got the door open but I don't know how to fix the furniture inside. I can't actually make it run properly myself.
So I'm throwing this out to you all. If you know how to mess around on Filemaker Pro and have big "let's fix this" energy, PLEASE feel free to take a look.
What would people want from this. I am open to taking a look but my 'hood is very customised/lore heavy so I have no idea what a general program would need or what people would want?
