Not only is she an AMAZING filmmaker, she has also created lots of hacks and custom content that any Simmer would be proud to have in their game and movies.

Sims 2 has an extensive interview with Decorgal up right now. The interview covers everything from Decorgal’s remedy for creator’s block to “words of wisdom” for new creators.

A must read for filmmakers out there.

A tiny bit of the interview:

What cheats do you use the most?
I use game modifications/tools that I’ve created the most to queue in-game animations. As for in-game cheats, the basic ones like setting time, the boolprop testing cheat, and move objects are the ones I use the most. I remember when I first started making movies, none of the cheats and modifications were available at the time (aside from the basic in-game ones although we didn’t get the boolprop testing cheat until later). Making movies was so incredibly frustrating- I had to actually play the game to manipulate relationships to get certain reactions, keep their needs at certain levels, etc. Movie makers want as much control as possible so that we don’t have to actually ‘play’ the game in order to complete a scene. Making movies today is so much easier because of the custom content we have today.

Sims Gamer has been moved over to EveryJoe.com but is still the wonderful, informative, amazing, fun…[you get the idea] blog that it’s always been.

What’s changed?

Well the header, for one. And I must say that I LOVE it.

I think that the whole layout looks great and is an improvement over what I had before. Also, I’ve picked up a couple of “category” blogs: Spirits and Cigars and I’m contributing to the Gaming category.

Think of this as Sims Gamer but with new clothes.

What I’m wanting from you guys is to know what you want to get out of Sims Gamer. I personally like the custom content and that’s why I feature it so much. I also am amazed at the Machinima that’s out there that’s been made with Sims 2.

While I like to write about what I find interesting, I know that I have a lot of loyal readers out there and maybe you guys want something else? So, let me know what you’d like to see.

Do you want more cheats?

Do you need tips on making movies?

Are you having issues with your game and need some tips on how to get your game to run better on your system?

I’m open to ideas and want to hear what you have to say.
