There are still efforts going on behind the scenes to get GOS back online (and Sims 2 Artists).

New hosting has been secured. The website php needs upgrading and this has not been working, but people are working on it.




For now, all pre-2023 files can be find here, though only loose files: https://archive.org/details/screens...7-10483dfgdfg-2

Thanks to you and Tea Addict for the info. Noone owes us anything, but it's nice to have a brief note about what's happening.

Another update: https://teaaddictyt.tumblr.com/post...nyone-wondering

Latest update I have on GOS and S2A is that the old hosting has been resumed (i.e. paid for again) so that HugeLunatic can hopefully access all required files to pass over to the people who have volunteered to assist in upgrading and re-hosting the site, but their c-panel access hasn’t yet been restored so it’s a waiting game at this stage.

Update again: https://teaaddictyt.tumblr.com/post...ing-is-that-the

Exciting update this morning is that the wizards working on GOS have overcome all the update issues and have the site running on a lovely, modern PHP version and have managed to get many functions of the website working again 😊 I’m unsure how much longer they’ll need to keep working out bugs and such, but they are continuing to do so.

Hopefully, the site will be back pretty soon! (good thing too cos I have CC I wanna download 👀👀🤣

Brilliant news!

Please for all reading- be nice to each other, no-one owes you anything and calling out people by name for something you think they should have done, is not nice and is very upsetting for those involved. These are real people you are talking about, and you don't know the full details of what is happening, nor do you know the circumstances and reasons for any perceived lack of communication.

The way that people have rallied around to help get these sites back up and to take the pressure off HL is really heartwarming, and is the spirit in which this community usually works. For all the people making accusatory comments and nasty remarks on various social media, you have NOT helped.

Thanks @Bulbizarre for keeping us updated!

GoS is back.

All credit goes to jules and fire for the incredible work they did fixing the site to get it upgraded and on new hosting.
