My name is MaxoidShannon, I’m the Producer on The Sims 2 EP/SP products. I was playing The Sims 2 Apartment Life the other day and thought you might like to see a sneak peak at some of the cool new objects. Check out the ceiling!!! (Yes, they are real!!) You will be able to change the texture on the ceilings. I know this isn’t much of a news item, but we are a bit early in development and we will have much more in the coming months. I hope you like what you see!

And if you notice there are spiral stairs in that picture too.
Too bad Marvine over at MTS2 beat them to it long before these came out.
The ceilings are pretty cool too but I wonder if lesser video cards will be able to render all those poly's or not.
Hopefully there will be the option to remove them if possible.

I believe I read in that thread that it was an option to turn them on/off.

I have some spiral staircases that I downloaded from somewhere. But they don't have the action of anyone walking up them. Maybe the EA/Maxis version will have the animations that go with a spiral staircase.

I think it would be rather silly to finally give them to us and they have no animations to them! LOL
