I had the same problem and after reading some developing mails I tried to
modify a function called "IDirectDrawImpl_CreateNewSurface". In this function,
after a line like this:

  Format = PixelFormat_DD2WineD3D(&pDDSD->u4.ddpfPixelFormat);

I put this code:

  if (Format == WINED3DFMT_UNKNOWN)
    Format = 23; //WINED3DFMT_R5G6B5;

and now the game can start:

  $ wine explorer /desktop=foo,800x600 Sims.exe

but it still have some blinking artifacts, and I cannot see the mouse pointer.
I also have tested all the posible values for "Format" and, despite any value
different from "0" makes the game to start, some of that permits entering the
houses and some not (crashes the game). Those are the wined3d pixel format
values that do: 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 33, 51, 60, 61, 71, 75,
77, 79, 80.
