As I a creator I am delighted by the above comments, thank you :) EA wont pay for copyrights. We take textures and ideas and make what we want too because we can. Objects are nothing more than lines really they dont exist but the ideas and pictures are owned by manufacturers and artists and so they want payment for them.
The Sims 2 however, did have some awesome stuff. The detail was better and a lot more work was put into objects on that game than this. My favourite has to be the Energiser. I took that in Blender and had a good look, awesome peice of kit. B)
