INTRODUCTION
For years I have been a loyal player of The Sims. I am hooked on the concept of controlling people, managing their personality, building and decorating their homes, expanding their neighborhoods, their community. When the oportunity to play the game online came along, I couldn’t wait to try it out. I played the Beta version and was surprised at how similar and yet different the game was.
The Sims Online was the multiplayer version of the successful hit The Sims. Now instead of interacting with A.I. controlled characters, I was dealing with real people, each controlling the Sim version of themselves.
It’s amazing how socializing and interacting play an important role in a Sim life. And it’s not only a chat program with graphics, like many people called it.
The TSO universe is composed of several cities, each of them with their own unique community. The purpose of this guide is to help you become an active and important part of that community, without the use of cheats, exploits or trainer programs. After all, playing the game is where the fun really is.
