What does this have to do with sims?

  • Learning new skills can help you in modding sims
  • Sims often use skills, concepts, and software widely available, even free, to allow modifying the game but which requires significant learning to use
  • Some apps meant to be used with sims, for example, are built with Visual Studio in languages like C# or Python.
  • You can find courses for all these on YouTube, across the web, many learning websites, but courses are most easily accessibly with a structured curriculum on a site like Udemy.
  • So, for example, the Crew Chief GTR2 Enhancements Plugin Monitor CCGEP Monitor is developed in Visual Studio using C# as the language. You can easily find courses for this combination on Udemy.
  • Another example is "Marvin's Awesome iRacing App" which is also developed in Visual Studio with C#
  • Other little apps are written in Python with UIs in TCL/TK. Python courses are popular on Udemy, too.
  • Tracks and car modeling are done with 3D modeling software. Udemy has courses on Blender, a popular and free 3D modeling app available on Steam.
