🧑🤝🧑 Chapter 7 : The Extended TS1 Families Subhood Download 🏘️
long post, please read carefully
🌆 This sub-neighborhood includes all the Sims 1 families introduced in the Chapter 6 post. They may have family and/or friendship ties with each other, depending on their original biographies, which is why I refused to make separate family files. This requires a whole version without any connection between families, even genetic, because it can corrupt the neighborhood you put them in, and I didn't want to take that risk.
🗨️ Each family has a personalized household description since the TS1 Games didn't have the possibility to have one.
♍ With my own Sims 1 games and the SimsWiki, I could remake every sim with their origin personality (to the point) and their origin biography. I gave a new custom bio to all the sims who didn't have one, to initiate game-play.
I tried the neighborhood with @crispsandkerosene Rod Humble as the Mystery man. It's awesome !
💭 To complete the characters, I also implanted every playable sim with CC-free memories. This gives them a real story to complement their biographies. These stories can be very successful or, on the contrary, very sad… or even worse, depending on the case. If for some reason, this doesn't suit you, you can always rewrite the biographies and delete the memories. What has been created is offered to you as a basis for your own gaming desires. Only the Unburried family don't have memories or bio.
🐊 I'm perfectly aware that my sims aren't the most accurate ones. It was what felt right with the CC available, trying to use as less as possible. I refused to use my ordinary custom eyes and skin tones, to make the sims easier to export. It explains why the skin tones are not as accurate as I would like. But if you want real Sims 1t2 conversion accuracy, check @bayoubashsims blog and the TS1 section on it. There are wonderful sims and nice outfits to grab (It's where I take the Miss Lucille hat that I use in my game). The idea here was to create a neighborhood/subhood ready to play, with detailed TS1 characters.
🔊 Here again, every description, every name, every bio has been translated both in 🇫🇷 French and in 🇬🇧 English. If you wanna translate all of it in your own language, you can download my text files. They are odt (text) files with spreadsheets including both translations, one file for neighborhoods and lots, the other is for sims biographies and descriptions. You can build a Google file (I never came to learn how to make one) or send me back a translation on those spreadsheets. I can include the translations for the neighborhoods and the sims subhood if asked.
⚠️ ADDITIONAL MODS NEEDED !
🏆 For this subhood to work perfectly, YOU NEED the 50 CUSTOM LifeTime Wants by @lamare-sims. Indeed, I gave all the sims custom LTW according to their bio, their personality and sims stories across the franchise.
🧼 I gave the NPC custom career based on the NPC Carrer Packs 1 and 2 by TashaFaun for : Firefighter, Mail Carrier, Pizza Delivery, Repair, Animal Control
🧽 I also used the Cleaning Service Carrer by Szynszolina for : Maid, Gardener, Butler
🫂 The sub-neighborhood includes ONLY the previously featured sims (plus a dead thief, for personal stories). It has been cleaned with SimPE and Hood Checker to remove any unwanted file residue. There are 17 families household and 5 "extra" (NPCs + MagicTown Vendors + Hobbyists + Downtownies + Goth cemetery sims). I tested it, it seems to work just fine but but let me know if you have a problem.
🌉 IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD :
🧛♀️ Vampire Vicki is not a vampire yet (she has the memory of it, but she isn't actually : I didn't want vampire skin/overlay to mess with the character file... again).
🧚♀️ Mara Faerie Queen has the memory of being a plantsim (the game don't propose "fairy", I took the closest) but isn't actually either.
🧙 Vampire Vicki is a Bad Witch, Mara Faerie is a very Good Witch and Apothecary Todd is a neutral Witch. They all have max magic skills.
🧰 Every remade NPC aren't made NPC yet. Why ? Because NPC in subhood have their names randomized, and then, because I prefer give you ultimate choice about what to do with them.

🥂 Here again, thank you for all your messages and support. It was an immense amount of time and work of creating, researching, and publishing, but I hope it was worth it. I love the Sims 2 for twenty years now, but I messed so much the Sims 1 "creepy crazy magic " vibe. I think a new game shouldn't come with a feeling of lost.
🏆 I also thank aaaaall the amazing CC creator who made all of it possible. If they are reading, I hope they would like to try the neighborhoods and enjoy it 🎉
