Strangetown ♢ Round 4 ♢ Smith

Jenny and PT still very much in love.

Johnny has been moving up in the entertainment career, and it really hasn't helped with his enormous ego.

Oh no. Just as the sun starts to set, PT gets a pretty Grim visitor.

PT's last goodbye. I'm not crying, you're crying.

It hits the family pretty hard, and everyone is a little lost on how to deal with the death of their beloved PT.

Johnny brings Erin back from work. I think she's probably trying to comfort him, she liked PT a lot as well, he was part of her family too- Oh god damn it, Erin! *face palms*

For some reason in my game, Erin Beaker and Giuseppi Mezzoalto ended up falling in love and exactly yesterday they get married

They will probably produce some little Italians soon 👌

💕 just thinking about astra & ada 💕

do you have any idea how happy i was when i rolled these two's gender preference? astra is pascal's only child (atm) and she grew up happily in the bustling curious household along with her uncles + vidcunds alien triplets. it was chaos but they were happy.

ada, on the other hand, was circe's mini-me growing up. they have the same personality, the love for science and wanted to excel in the medicine career. that is, what she made her parents believe. y'see, ada isn't the knowledge sim that her parents wanted. (nor is her twin sister annie, whom rebelled early-on) but ada kept up appearances.

she concentrated on her studies, did biology at university, she was a good girl.

that was until, she met astra.

astra was not raised to be anything other than herself, it was just pure coincidence that she was a lot alike her family (fucking nice). it took many years of their friendship-then-romance for astra to bring ada out of her shell, to make her realize that being a primary-popularity sim is a-okay. now, ada is working her way up the politics career despite her parent's dismay, but it's alright... soon she'll be a curious and they are happy to have her, as is.

Been playing a maxis-match / minimal-CC version of the Curious household in my spare time. 👽

🌌 Meanwhile...🛸

🏜️ Now that I've finished the TS1t2 Neighborhood Conversion Project, I'm working on a version of StrangeTown to showcase the transition story, as well as the one presented in The Sims 2. It's a mix between StrangeTown and TS4 Strangerville (one of the rare thing i like about the Sims 4). How did OldTown become PleasantView? What is the origin of StrangeTown and its mysterious inhabitants? 🖖

🏘️ This will serve as the basis for my uberhood (Pleasantview + StrangeTown + BelladonaCove + RiverBlossom Hills + Family bins + PleasantView original townie pool). I think i'm gonna use the Riverside subhood sims to complete the uberhood ancestors, it supposed to be the Sims 2 first neighborhood.

🏠 Some of lots used are StrangeTown premade lots by @plumbtales, some are remade Bespoke Houses by @honeywell-mts and the rest is premade maxis lots I remade in @jodeliejodelie's style (the files made my game crash, but her designs are amazing, go check !)

The terrain that I use is one I made ages ago, and i lost the SC4 file. I use Mootilda's HoodReplace to duplicate it to my new saves. BUT I included it in my "populated TS1 subhood" if you want to use it as an extension of OldTown.

🚀 We need an "official" military base with a lab part 🛰️

📡 And we need a very mysterious "top secret" facility ! 👽

🌾 I also include a rural part of the town, where Olivia Specter's ranch is and where the Nigmos family lived before Ophelia's parents death (in my story, they were killed by a vampire).

🛸 There have been an accident on one of the mesa... oups

🎧 they are on track to become my favorite household i love them (lazlo getting up and laughing the moment vidcund start singing lmao) still can't believe i'll be stuck studying for my exams the next two weeks instead of playing them non-stop

"So... Johnny's got a family of his own, Jill is in college, Jackson's on his way to teenhood. You afraid of being saddled with just me soon, Jen?"

"Oh, Pete, you old fuddy-duddy. If getting 'saddled with you' meant I get to be with you for the rest of our years, then I don't mind."

"Hah... Here's to the rest of our years together, Jenny. I love you." "I love you too, Peter."

🌉 Meanwhile... lost and found treasures

🌆 I found a backup of my old uberhood called Storybrooke. It's mostly on a heavy modified and decorated Pleasantview map. It also has a Strangetown subhood and a Veronaville (empty) one. I thought it might give ideas to some player.

🏡 The Pleasantview area, with Sims 1 and Sims 2 lots

🏞️ The Riverblossom Hills area

🌁 The MagicTown recreation area 🎪

🌆 I usually play with Pleasantview, Strangetown, Riverblossom Hill and Belladona Cove. I rarely use Desiderata Valley and never Veronaville. I also use the characters from the Sims 1 game to write the origin story of this great mess and to enrich their family trees which I cross with great care. I make the Both and the Goth couzins for exemple. I make Rose Greenman the little sister of Gabriel Green etc.

My empty Veronaville subhood that I keep for backup.

🏜️ But my favorite hood/subhood has always been : Strangetown

🛸 I made for this town simple and complex stories. A small town and a big military base built near/on nomads (dark-skinned gypsys, witches and werewolves). In this game, the Agents household established a reliable military base on Earth to watch UFOs phenomena 🛰️

🌄 The town also has ranches and fields where the Nigmos family lived before a vampire killed them, causing Ophelia to move at her aunt's house 🦇

🏞️ I also remade while back the 3 vacations places, with mostly custom remade lots

🏝️ The Muluku Islands

⛩️ The Valley of Azuki River 🗻

🧭 with also custom made secret vacation lots for each map 🗺️

🌲 The Great Lakes Mountains 🏔️

🚂 The Asian village and the Mountains has each one a train station, thanks to @criquette-was-here 🚞

I hope it made you dream a little. The Sims 2 is a game worth playing, even today.
