🖥️ Evolution of The Sims technologies

This is information by conversation from 🌎 #ts3-beta-chat channel in The Sims 2 Beta Discord Server about on which engine each game of The Sims series is developed and what technologies are used by each game of the series.

Just to offer clarity/summarize the above:

1. TS1 is built on top of MFC (Edith) and Gonzo/Rizzo. It uses a renderer which utilizes a mix of SC2K, SC3K, and Quake3D code.

2. TS2 extends TS1’s behavior engine but replaces the renderer with a new 3D engine, although it still uses the Gonzo development framework. It’s pretty much TS1 on steroids internally.

3. Sims 3 is overhauled and doesn’t use any of the tech from TS1/TS2, although it retains several assets ported over. It uses a new behavior engine (no name, but it uses traits/commodities instead) and Renderware (plus other stuff like Speedtree) for the 3D engine.

4. Sims 4 is once again built on a new engine, in anticipation of the game being an MMOG instead of single player. It loosely extends GlassBox from SC2013 (dubbed SmartSim now) but they pretty much have to overhaul it to remove the multiplayer aspect, so it really ends up becoming its own thing. It doesn’t reuse anything from TS3 except the concept of the traits/commodities behavior engine being used for SmartSim.

GlassBox/CleverBox go brrr

Ah yes,, very logical.

[lukaka-arte]

Okay, hear me out.

I KNOW Eternal Sugar just came out... But that's exactly the reason as to WHAT I think will be inspiration/reference of Silent Salt.

First of all: All the Beasts are a DIRRECT reference to a character of a certain culture.

Mystic Flour = Guanyin/Kuan Yin (chinese buddhism)

Burning Spice = Shiva (Hinduism)

Shadow Milk = The Serpent/Lúcifer (Christianism //my personal take//)

Eternal Sugar = Aphrodite/Calipso (Greek Mithology)

So, with Silent Salt, It won't be different.

And with the current info we have, I can safely say that

Silent Salt is gonna be King Arthur

Okay, hear me out. There's NO DENYIN the HUGE amount of Fairytale references we have with White Lily.

The glassbox/helpless maiden

The evil witch

The enchanted forrest

The literal FAIRIES.

But the way those elements are presentes, for some reason, remind me of the more Folk version of this aspects than the infantilized version of this that we see Disney/DreamWorks/etc do Its take.

It actually reminds me of the "Tales of the Round Table" (a book I had when I was a kid)

I dont exactly know but the vibes? It genuinely gives me the right rub-off (?).

And also, Silent Salt sword CUTTING THE MOON reminded me A LOT of the attack from Capricorn Shura from the Anime Saint Seiya, the attack literal name is EXCALIBUR

Anyways, thanks for listening for me rambling about nonsense.

[hunting-songs]

@zoldcks started following you!

"A heartbeat calm despite a muzak of murderous intent, a much too controlled cadenced breathing" that sounds unnaturally mechanic. As mechanic as his heartbeat. Senritsu tilted her head to the side like an curious bird as always when she was listening very keenly. She wondered- and a frown drew a concerned line as deep as a scar between her big eyes-what had been done to he other and in what horrible way he had been trained to produce such a song: " And a almost mhmmm.... estinto way of walking.I have heard that kind of walking-rhytmn before. You and Killua-kun went through the same training,yes?" Senritsu nodded her head understandingly to a question she had already answered herself: "Mhmmmmmm, So you are an assassin." The Hunters short, gnarled fingers that used to look very different had started to tap a melody against the wood of the table she was standing beside: No badump-badump-badump like the heartbeats of the Mafioso around them, but more a Tack-tack-tack. The melody of a heartbeat echoing in a body in which every single bone had been broken one and healed back together stronger. The frown on Senritsus round face turned even heavier and the line between her eyes drew a shadow on her forehead like an fresh injury. Neon had wanted to go to the bodypart-collectors party to mingle between people who had the same hobby as her.And the girl dived into the crowd to happily flutter from one exhibition piece to the other as if she was a young child visiting a pet-zoo. The light was low in the dancehall,turned the blue tiled floor black and the yellow preservation fluid in the glassboxes of the exhibition pieces darker as if the bodyparts had been drenched in gold. Flowers had been put on every table with drinks to hide the stench of rot laying as a thick blanket over the hall.

"Mhmmmm....I know your target is not my boss, because if that would be the case, she would already be dead." like a thoughtful bird Senritsu titled her head from one side to another, thinking. The young woman had worked long enough in the Mafia to recognize the heartbeat of a professional assassin and she was so used to that melody, that she noticed how calm she was herself. The realisation did not let her feel good about herself in the slightest. In the beginning of the evening Senritsu had went to the bodypart collectors mansion kitchen and brewed herself a can of black tea, so now she just refilled her cup, mixed sugar and milk from the small cans put on the table beside her and took a sip even if the familiar taste did not gave her any comfort over that realisation about herself. "And I would probably too be very dead but I am still alive and I am thankful for that because I happen to like to be alive. Its a very mhmmm... lesto expierence. Beeing alive, that is. Thank you very much."I don´t want to die, she thought realistically and an another part of her added very quietly: I do not want anyone to die here at all.

"Would you give me a fair warning before you start? That girl is only fifteen years old and I would not like her to see... such things." She took another sip of her tea, wondering worried if there was anything she could do. Wondering with even more worry if she actually could do something. Wondering even heavier why she was hestiating to do anything. I don´t want to die, the woman thought realistically and an another part of her added very sad: I do not want anyone to die here at all.

[tripably]

I see you are looking at this curious device. It is our glassbox of disturbing events, our container of horrors, our enclosure of personal shortcomings. Made of tempered glass, it is optimized for looking at and showing off the horrors without having to touch them.

Look! an alcoholic father. But see! now he's dead. Guilt! Rage! Addiction! Fear! Infidelity! Doubt! Abuse! Politics! History! All of the world events! How handy it is, to have such a safe and accessible space to store all those things. Imagine having to live with them, all of the time. My, what a charmingly farcical idea.

Now, if you touch the glass, you can feel a pulsation, see? That is our heartbeat. For reasons we cannot yet explain, removing all these emotions from our day-to-day consciousness doesn't actually seem to disconnect them from the physical reality that manifests as our body. Sometimes we get earthquakes because of it, which is quite regrettable. Heart palpitations. Full-body tremors. Difficulty with focus and memory. Nausea. The likes. Oftentimes it is impossible to say which of these horrors is the culprit.

Scientists are tirelessly working on this minor hiccup. In the meanwhile, we keep a close watch on the glass lest it cracks.

Ill give you a dollEr to draw a page of Glassbox

a dollEr? the hell is that?

Boost Franchise Success With Digital Tools

Customer expectations in US franchises are consistently evolving, and it’s simpler than ever for competitors to lure away your loyal customers if you don’t stay current. Franchise owners are learning that leveraging the right digital tools can transform standard exchanges into outstanding experiences. But how can you modernize without overwhelming your staff or overspending? By focusing on practical updates, you introduce efficiency, personalization, and a streamlined customer journey across all franchise locations. Here’s an overview of smart, actionable technology strategies every proactive franchise operator should explore.

AI & CRM: The Foundation for Enhanced Service

AI has become a must-have for US franchise brands aiming to increase efficiency and elevate service quality. Imagine making every customer feel valued—the only scalable approach is to let automation handle the heavy lifting. AI platforms go beyond data analysis; they can foresee when a customer might churn, activate special promotions, or provide insights on growth opportunities. Using these tools effectively could speed decision-making significantly and boost operational efficiency by 10-15%.

Then there are advanced CRM systems. Rather than merely gathering data passively, these tools place each customer’s purchase history, feedback, and preferences at your fingertips—making every interaction more personalized, quicker, and simpler. When syncing happens in real time across all locations, a customer in Texas gets the same consistent experience as someone in Maine. Ensure your CRM supports location-wide syncing and captures immediate feedback, because nothing drives customers away faster than repeating themselves or feeling ignored at each spot.

Harness Omnichannel Engagement as Your Competitive Edge

If you haven’t adopted genuine omnichannel engagement, you’re missing the chance for smoother conversations and faster resolutions. Tools like Insider, Zendesk, and Twilio Engage organize every SMS, web chat, or social message into one unified view, enabling conversations started on Facebook to continue seamlessly by email or in-person—no awkward interruptions.

Offering a branded mobile app or customer portal is now critical if you don’t have one yet. Cloud-based and mobile platforms benefit not only customers but also empower franchise teams to be more responsive. Customers can place orders in advance, share feedback instantly, or check loyalty points without waiting on staff. When your team accesses feedback and issues on a centralized dashboard, they can quickly handle challenges before they turn into public complaints.

Strengthen Loyalty & Base Decisions on Analytics

Customized customer journeys are genuinely what encourage repeat business. The newest AI-driven tools like Insider adjust offers or website popups dynamically, tailoring deals based on visitor behavior—so the weekend baseball dad sees different promotions than the daily commuter grabbing breakfast. This replaces generic mass emails with targeted messaging. For addressing issues rapidly, capable chatbots manage common inquiries while escalating complex matters to human agents.

Integrating platforms such as Kangaroo streamlines rewards, referrals, and coupon campaigns—eliminating the hassle of punch cards or lost points. Most importantly, the data collected refines future offerings so that promotions become more effective over time.

On the analytics front, tools like Glassbox allow managers to analyze exactly what customers click on, interact with, or struggle with online by replaying their sessions and generating heatmaps. Reviewing these insights regularly—at least monthly—helps identify bottlenecks and optimize the customer journey before it negatively affects your revenue.

Automate to Drive Efficiency & Franchise Expansion

Growing a franchise without compromising the quality of customer service requires putting automation at the forefront. Delegate repetitive tasks—such as sending thank-you messages post-purchase, gathering feedback, and tracking promotions—to solutions like Deeto or your CRM system. This enables your team to stay focused on high-value actions while ensuring no customer interactions slip through the cracks.

To keep the network performing well, implement a unified platform that consolidates all customer and sales data for real-time reporting. This comprehensive view enables teams to pinpoint bottlenecks and spot hidden successes quickly. Automation also empowers local franchisees to launch promotions or adjust to regional trends within the brand’s established guidelines.

Stay Flexible & Cultivate a Data-Driven Culture

The future of franchise technology lies in all-in-one platforms that combine CRM, omnichannel communication, loyalty programs, feedback, and automation—this will be standard by 2025. However, installing tools is just the first step. Your team must be trained well. Ensure training is accessible and digestible—consider brief online modules so new staff can get up to speed quickly.

The real impact emerges when franchise operators consistently review what’s working and what isn’t. Set a recurring calendar reminder for analyzing customer data regardless of performance. If ready-made solutions don’t meet your needs, collaborate with your franchise tech provider to develop custom integrations.

Success doesn’t come from implementing every tool immediately—it’s about gradual improvements and maintaining open feedback channels. Begin by mapping out the customer journey and identifying where targeted automation or personal touches will have the most impact. From there, investing in integrated cloud and mobile technologies lets you adapt rapidly, helping your teams manage changes as they occur.

Engage with the franchise technology community to exchange ideas. Regular “deep dives” into your own data allow you to address issues before they result in negative reviews. In a market where customer loyalty is delicate, continuously investing in digital enhancements provides your franchise with a sustained competitive advantage year after year.
