Hey there everyone,

With the changes brought in regarding the Leaderboard Split, we have decided as well to do a list of all the Emulators that you can use to run the game. This is to keep the game open to everyone, HOWEVER, there will be a guide in the guides detailing the setup of such an Emulator, as a standard for all runs.

The following Emulators are Approved:

NGC: Dolphin + Nintendont The approved emulator is Dolphin 5.0 and 6.0 (Normal, Dev and Unstable Builds) using OpenGL Graphics ONLY. DirectX11 Graphics is banned.

Nintendont is allowed for runs but ONLY with the "Unlock Disk Speed" option disabled. This must be shown at the beginning of the run. All other emulators are banned.

PS2/Xbox: All Emulators are banned, due to inaccuracy.

Emulator not here? Bring it up in The Sims Bustin Out Discord Channels on the Community Discord.

If you have any questions, please ask them in the community Discord.

Happy Simming, Wolfie and Patrick
