Scratch

There is no private messaging on Scratch (sadly). I would like the flash files (fla) once you finish them, and you could probably host them on a website (does LIFE have one)

The website looks great, just saying. Also, only some people have panther, and many don't won't to bother with mods. Do we want to have one version with the complete store in panther, and one with a minimal store in the Scratch?

True...

When you go to Save As I believe there is an option to save as a CS4 document.

yep, check the comment.

When will this be completed?

Hi, LIFE people,
Just reading through this thread this project does sound interesting. Unfortunately I do not know CS4, am terrible at PHP and really only have a rather basic grasp of HTML & CSS. Meshes are not my strength, neither is Javascript. The only way I could help this project would be in the form of Blender-created graphics or using GIMP.
Also...
How will this be distributed, as in via this LIFE website or on Scratch? I sympathise with the development of this project and look forward to seeing its release, even if I cannot help you due to the lack of skill on my part.

Scratch distribution during the development period, then it will be distributed from our website.

Sorry for trolling early, but this does seem to be interesting, kinda like a beta Sims.
However, as many scratchers have mentioned above, this will take a lot of effort and time, not to mention some capacity limitations can be expected.
Simulating a 'life' is a very broad term (which I used the bad pun up there), since you'd expect the process to be from birth to death.
This would be really decent if it had the following. (Just my opinion though)

-Aging process in a cyber nutshell, just the right ammount of time to wait for your character to grow up.

-Various functions like the basic eating, drinking, clothing, sleeping, and some other misc. abilities. Free time, goofing around, and just not standing still when you don't touch the character.

-A realistic bio-system, which is, getting diseases now and then, and having to spend some time and money to cure it.

-Consumable and well-balanced currency, no 'stache glitches' but money made from pure effort

-Customizable character, house, automobile of choice, and pets (maybe?).

-Most of what you can see from a typical Sims game

There might be some radical challenges the developers would have to take, and some features thats impossible to code in,
but again, these are only my suggestions and personal opinions.

Keep up the great work. 

Oh, okay, that was what I was afraid of.   

Also, Borrego6165, what is this other flash player you are talking about?

I see.
