NOT SO STRANGERVILLE SAVE FILE VERSION 1.0 BY SUPPJASON
A save finally anyone can benefit from.. the Not So Strangerville save file is here, where all the flora strangeness from Strangerville has been removed, leaving it a small, peaceful town perfect for starting any new gameplay.
This little lightbulb lit up when I started doing some save and townie maintenance in my most recent Strangerville save. I left MCCC untuned while I was solving the mystery and Story Progression destroyed some of the more iconic families in the game with the amount of pregnancies and marriages that happened in the background. After deciding it would just be easier to transfer my family to a clean save, I was shook by the fact that they would have to solve the Strangerville Mystery all over again just to have a normal play through.
Download and Instructions under the cut.
Spoilers: Do not play this save file if you have not completed the Strangerville Mystery and still have interest in doing so. The Mystery is still active in the game. All levels of the Secret Lab have been unlocked and the story has been set to the final act. If you ever want to reactivate any level of strangeness, just head over to the Secret Lab.
If you want your sim to benefit from the slightly disappointing, but still new unlockable trait from completing the Strangerville Mystery, you'll have to add it with this cheat:
Traits.Equip_Trait HeroOfStrangerVille
Make sure to have testingcheats on.
Note: This is a save file. This will not affect any of your current saves nor while it disable the Strangerville Mystery from any of your future saves; unless you are starting from this save file. I'd recommend creating a duplicate save before starting any gameplay in order to still have a fresh, strangeless save file.

“Why is it that the world is filled with drama?”
“Every one of us is so different…”
“Yet, we’re all the same.”
After many months of working on this, it’s finally done! I’ve been inspired to do this by seeing others save files (Lilsimsie, Plumbella). The vibe I went for with this with drama. Me personally, I enjoy storytelling whether it’s through let’s plays, machinimas, etc.. With having the many characters and stories, there’s always the option to expand or change each sim’s fate.
With the lots, I decided to have at least one-two starters per world (Willow Creek has the most starters) that are ready to move into. Not every lot is filled with a household, but most of them are (though all the Newcrest lots are filled).
NOTE: This is the first version of this save file. Please let me know if there’s anything wrong so then I can try to fix it.
Some of the lots I didn’t touch (Ancient Ruins, Von Haunt Estate, Lighthouse) because I felt they would fine as is. Others I only renovated and some of original Townie houses. The rest are completely built by me.
There’s no CC, however I used lots of packs for this. If you don’t have all of the packs, just replace/change whatever is missing.
Don’t forget to turn lifespan back on! I had it disabled while working on this so then no one would age up.
