Major neighborhood project in progress! (currently on hiatus, bc i'm working on a Desiderata AU)
For about 2-3 weeks I've been working on a new neighborhood which I called Pleasant Valley! It's an alternative universe of Pleasantview set about 50 years before the canon hood. There're also sims from other games from the franchise who are related to Pleasantview sims as well as a few OCs! All characters in the neighborhood are genetically correct with infant face templates thanks to @ivycopur's Clean Pleasantview Plus: Restored Ancestral Sims & Genetic Infant Faces and @meowingcookie's Maxis Infant Face Templates.
Currently the neighborhood is approximately 15-20% done, as it is a huge project which I'm doing by myself.
To make the thumbnails I used Sims 2 HQ Icon Pack and Build-A-Sim Icon Pack!
Here are thumbnails of the already finished families!
Changes to applied to the families so far:
Kynda Pleasant's aspiration changed from Popularity to Knowledge
Fatima Simovitch wants to be a star herself instead of pushing her daughter into it for reason below, TW: child grooming (if this topic is too much for you, please stop reading this post!)
Originally in Riverview, Fatima is explicitely said to be "grooming her daughter Betty to pursue a career in music". Which to me personally implies that she wants to make Betty pursue a career in music even if it ended up dangerous for her, because realistically speaking, being a celebrity poses many dangers for minors. There will be heavy topics in the neighborhood, such as child abuse mentioned in one sim's memories done by Mystery Sim, but I drew the line of having playable abusers. I hope it's understandable!
