these are pretty great, but i can't wait to see some info on building new models, I've had a project in mind for awhile, but darned if I can do it in sims 2. Also hope to see some info on making movies soon, this was a lot of fun for Sims 2 i think, but my computer at the time couldn't handle the video tasking so I never learned how.
