7/10/10 – CAW is Finally Fixed, So The Project is Back On!

Status: Work In Progress.  The project includes the design of a giant neighborhood, and it got its title because I have decided to include a custom built version of Tony Stark’s house from the Iron Man Movies.  It will include components from Sims 3 Ambitions (when it is released) and will most likely not be complete until early-mid July.  To give you an idea of how large this is there are 2 videos below comparing the time it takes for 2 different cars to go through one of about a dozen islands (not done terrain sculpting).  As you can see, the slow car (Speed 4) takes about 75 Sim minutes to complete the route and the fast car (Speed 10) takes about 20 Sim minutes to complete the same route.  Please post comments and suggestions (such as where to place community lots) below.  Updates, pics & videos after the jump!

While there are currently no details, this stuff pack has been on 2 online retail sites and it has now appeared on the EA Store.  This practically confirms the existence of this SP.  Thanks to Wolfgurl685 for pointing this out.

Thanks to GeorgefPlay, for pointing out this new parody video from The Sims 3 Ambitions.

Here is David Bisbal’s Sims 3 Music Video (Spanish), unfortunately, it does not show any clips from TS3 Ambitions.  Hit up ExtraSims for a short interview with the guy.

I have decided to scrap the current podcast format and replace it with something more helpful, tutorials, reviews, and possibly movies (made w/ Sims 3).  If you would like to submit any ideas, including lots or sims to use in the movies, email me at: SimProgramsMailbag@yahoo.com

I found this while looking through the SimTimes hands-on article, it confirms that there is an education career but unfortunately it reveals the fact that the school is still a rabbit hole.  Here is the article exert (loosely translated from German):

The school building was the only building in which one can not practice any profession. This changes with The Sims 3: Ambitions. Because now your Sims can run through the profession of education and from primary school through the High School teacher and superintendent bishin to direct the career ladder to climb. The school building remains, however, a Rabbit Hole. Thus, the prospective teachers during their work disappear behind the doors of the school building

I found a discussion thread about this in the Sims 3 Forums, but the original article was from SimTimes.  Here is the article exert (loosely translated from German):

Did you create your Sims, you can in the relationship now, the options “Select Fixed friends Festivals friend” and “fiance / fiancee.

The just of the article is that in CAS you can make your sims go steady, be best friends or fiances.  This should be a great feature to use.

Here are some new wallpapers for Sims 3 Ambitions from SimFans.de.  Here is the link: http://simfans.de/index.php?subaction=showfull&id=1273767949&archive=&start_from=&ucat=20&
