Incredible. Of course, my family had a Commodore...

It's good to see you again, Numenor, with a new fantastic object!
I thought you had lost interest in The Sims, gad to find it's not the case!
Indeed, if this object is not featured, the mods will hear a lot lol

Thanks Numenor.
The 128K ZX Spectrum was the first computer I've had!
Now, my sims can feel the expectation of tape loading and its unforgetable sound!

Thanks, again.

I love to see creators put this much thought and spirit into an object. It really brightens my day more than you can imagine.
I hope the joy of creating never abandons you.

Oh thank you Modfather, have to say that this kind of PC vintage makes your age (mine and of many other members here) easily guessed now. It's quite unbelievable but it seems that here there are many who started playing and studying the chips and codes in the very beginning of the PC era, in a technical or just ludic way.
You have a "touch" in creating amazing objects, and this is one of the most complex and enjoyable item recently and/or even ever seen. Can't wait to have it in game and listen to the MP3 oldies. Thanks forever and ciao.

Although I just got done trading in my TI-99/4A towards a Coleco Adam (2 tape drives and 80k!), I may give this Sinclair a shot. The Adam had to be returned because it was defective again. I was just wondering if, on the Sinclair, am I treated to the flashing borders even while writing BASIC programs (If so, how could you concentrate)?

Seriously, thank you for taking us back to our roots with this object.

Congrats on another featured under your belt Nuemenor, your creations dot my game left and right, I am glad to add this one to my collection.

(I showed this to my dad and he said it brought back memories, being born in the nineties tells me, I know not much about this computer!)

Very Cool, I had one of these in the mid 90's, but it wasn't my first Spectrum, my first one was the model after this one, also had the 128k with the built in tape deck. :P

Thanks for the memories and the mod.

Wow. You just don't know when to stop, Numenor =D This is insanely awesome *hugs Numenor* And unfortunately (or not?), being born in the mid-nineties kinda stole the experience of this computer from me xD

awesome job as always! This reminds me of my Commodore Vic-20. I used it primarily for games, but I remember making some kind of minimum programs with it.... like Q-Basic

1 Print "Hello!"
2 Goto 1
Run

Or something like that. lol! Excellent job man!

Numenor ~ Many thanks for all the hard work and time you took learning to create this fine piece of sim art, many more thanks for taking the time to share the information on how you were able to introduce new sounds to the object and of course all the other information about objects you have shared over time.

Much thanks Rick n Teresa.

I like the screenshot where it says "It's not BASIC, It's Art!". It's a very interesting object, and I can't wait to try it out. Thanks! :]

Yes Indeed. I learned Basic and Machine language on my trusty vic-20 and c-64 at around age 9. Ah...the nostalgia.
