Default Seasons changes, the Upload Queue, and you!
Hi All,

As you all know the latest Sims 2 EP has been released and a lot of you are picking it up and playing it and hopefully enjoying yourself immensely.

With the release of an EP the amount of uploads on MTS2 usually goes down a bit, and we are taking this opportunity to update some key systems and procedures to take us into the future and make things better for people uploading.

With this in mind, I am announcing that:

The Upload Items screen will be DISABLED for the period of this work

This means that no new uploads may be submitted to MTS2 - however existing uploads will be processed as normal, as it is required to clear down the upload queues completely before restarting and updating for Seasons.

We hope you all understand the need to do this, and rest assured uploads will be enabled very soon.

Regards
Delphy

Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.

Awwww - okay. We trust you to do the right stuff, even if it means having to be patient and wait to upload new stuff and find nifty new things to download - and besides, the new EP should keep us distracted for a week.

Just make sure you get some of that time to be distracted too!

Holy Scrap I'm glad I uploaded my latest stuff last night.... I suppose I should use this time to read some of those tutorials that I've been wanti-er, rather, needing to read. I'm so oblivious I didn't even realize the new EP was out today....

I'm so glad you didn't do this half an hour earlier.
I wonder how many exiting bugs Maxis have left for us?

Go and have nice a cup of tea.
It will make everything better.

No problem, improving the site for the future is more important than the individual satisfaction of uploading an item

You know a site allowing re-upload of free build/buy stuff in lots ? Help us to update the list !

It went down last night (for me) AS I was uploading recolors

*************
Don't forget to say "thank you" to Sims2 creators and recolorers (is that a word?) And support this site!

Thanks, for all your posts and thanks. I often don't have time to respond, but they make my day and warm my heart.

Onward and upward! (no pun intended). lol. Can it get any better?

If a cluttered desk is the sign of a cluttered mind, then what about an empty desk?

My stuff may be used in uploads if 1. Credit is given, 2. link to my page provided. Happy simming!

Damn, just half an hour ago I finished my newest creation!

Can you predict how long it will take?
One day, one week or whatever?

Anyway, it's right that I'll probably not create/download anything for at least one week due to Seasons which I'll hopefully get tomorrow, so it's ok.

No problem here on the contrary thank you for all the hard work!I can't wait to see the changes!

Plus gives us more time to create i guess, instead of uploading or browsing new uploads ;-) lol

You will find my older and newest creations here

not at the greatest timing for me...... I was just about to finish my latest career. Oh well. If it helps improve the site then i say go for it. Thanks for the update, and let us all know when uploadings re-enab;ed.

Hi Delphy,

Will that apply to the proposals (and testing) upload section also? Or should we wait for the all clear before we upload to our projects so the other team members can test the content? We're still bug-checking our content.

Héhé, thanks for letting us know !
At least this update is nice for creators or players.. it let us busy in the game or creating some new things, and no more temptations for once, lol.
