You are on the beta version of My Abandonware. The live site is still myabandonware.com. Your favorites and ratings here are copied to the live site. Comments and other changes are not — we delete them every morning at 08:00 Paris time, when this site goes down for about an hour. Leave feedback through this link to Pastel (email required).
The beta goes down at 08:00 Paris time, in a few minutes. We rebuild the database from the live site. It comes back in about an hour.
I extracted every living file from the sim life folder onto my folder which has the dosgames.It runs, yes but when I press speed to change the speed of course it crashes. It says something about it’s protection, something along the lines of “SimLife protection violation”. It even has the details of the time it happened! The message says it “found address”? Nah the real found address message is just some number error codes, like 61787 14c33 in the p: directory. Please send me help to run this game and to hide from the sim police.

In order to play this game you need to download a DOSbox. If you follow this videos instructions you should be able to play Simlife again on any computer. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRB76L-XPsk

I keep coming back to this game and yes, finally it seems that processor power has grown enough to play it succcesfully on large worlds! However, after a few days playing it seems the save games get corrupt: I am greeted by a "Problem loading simlife game". Does anyone have experience with this?
