Sorry, I was looking for info on Sims 2 in Linux but just had to reply to this! I have Photoshop CS2 working with wine... I'm pretty sure CS works just fine too! :)

Yeah, anybody know a game close to Sims for Linux?

I have not yet found any. Since the project SimPE is used to manipulate game files, it is possible to use it to create a game similar to The Sims to run in Linux with out spending time to create game data format. Probably using OpenML will make writing the game easier.

I know enough C to write programs to convert one unit to another unit, but programming for GUI and multimedia are over my head.

At this time there is openttd and lincity-ng.
