Introduction

So you've made a Sim that you want to share! Here are the guidelines you must follow in order to share your Sim at MTS. Please take the time to read through all of these guidelines as some key items have changed and may affect your upload. Pay close attention to what is required, and your upload will spend less time in the moderation queue and be more likely to get approved. Thanks!

This page is split into separate sections for easier readability. Please make sure to review ALL sections before submitting your sim!

NOTE: This is a large section consisting of multiple pages. Don't get lost!

Types of Sims

General Quality

Required Screenshots

Certain screenshots are required when you upload your sim - and they must be big and clear enough to see what you've made!

Big Enough
The larger your pics, the better! Tiny pics won't show enough detail to see what you've made.
  • Minimum Size: 800 pixels wide by 600 pixels tall is a good size for the smallest pic you would want to upload. You may have smaller pics for thumbnails and the like, but for your required screenshots, please go as big as you can!
  • Maximum Size: MTS allows pictures up to 2560 pixels wide by 1440 pixels tall, and a file size limit of 800 kbs - so you can have nice, big, pretty pics. You may have to resize your pictures or apply compression to get them to fit within that limit.

Please don't just take a small pic and size it up in your graphics program to get bigger pics - this only makes the dimensions larger but doesn't add any detail and just gives you a blurry, pixellated larger pic, not a nice clear one.

Packaging Your Sim

You'll need to properly package your sim so others can download it and use it in their games.

Credits for Included or Pictured Content

You are responsible for providing accurate descriptions, links, and credits for all pieces of custom content included with or pictured on your sim.

Adult Content/Nudity

We do not allow adult content at MTS - please read the following to know what constitutes adult content.

Right Info/Right Files

All the fiddly bits - description, title, putting your file into a rar or zip, etc.

Additional Stuff

  • If your upload is rejected or marked as changes required and you're not sure why, ask in Creator Issues.
  • If you're not sure whether your neighborhood is ready for uploading, use the Creator Feedback Forum to get feedback on it.
