I’m tempted to install the clean hood templates by meetme2theriver. Hopefully it isn’t too complicated to do so. I haven’t played Sims 2 in a while. I don’t often play with premades, perhaps I’ll experiment with them!
So I installed all the clean hood templates which took a long time. Currently playing with the Brokes. Brandi somehow got a memory of becoming BFFs with Skip, even though he’s dead... uhh... what?
Well, the templates definitely worked... Brandi’s baby was a girl! I called her Riley. She also has blonde hair.
Now I’ll probably create my own family... I do still have my old Sedona hood, but it’s not in the neighbourhood folder right now, as I figured it would be easier to move it to the desktop whilst I was installing all the clean hoods. And anyway, it’s always fun to start something new. Now to plan the family details...

Hi
Wonderful that it worked!
Oh, yes. Planning a bit a family drama.
Ugh my game crashed... everything was going so well too. Pascal had had a girl called Tara who was a toddler, Vidcund had just given birth to a girl who I'd just named Lily... and Lazlo was also in his third trimester And now I've lost all that progress, sigh... I could fairly easily replicate it I guess. I've no idea why it crashed. Maybe it's just one of those things.
I just started over again. My game was sadly corrupted from deleting things I shouldn't of done, learned the hard way but I got to backup some of my characters. Lora Minish a artist, trying to improve her painting skills.
Last time in my old gameplay, (before everything got corrupted) Lora met Cody and luckily I got to save him too. They got married last time and sadly didn't get to show it, although I got a cute pic of them together again in the new playthrough.
Yay! More stories of Sims 2. I so enjoy seeing them and reading what others are doing.
.....
I've restarted my Copacy Challenge.
It's an Alphabet Challenge where I'm copying Candi's Uglacy and Prettacy with the Sims townies/NPCs in order but not actually the Stories. She's a better writer and entertainer than I am. I'm just reliving some of them fun I got by reading her stories.
He'll start it off with an Apocalypse (because I like them), then move on to an Officially Wacky Boolprop Challenge, then on to ... something else.
I named him Jr Copacy. He'll be marrying Sandy Bruty. She got a makeover.
I need to make friends of the future spouses.
This is Tiffany, who will marry his son (maybe daughter if he doesn't have a son).
I don't know how long until they can hire Service Sims so he made friends with Carmen.
I’ve been playing and taking screenshots but not actually uploading them!
In Pleasantview I have the Jones family. Parents are Mark and Claire, and they have quads... Beth, Emma, Faye and Katie. They’re now teenagers. All are redheads... so many of my Sims are, being a redhead myself (although more auburn than bright ginger) I’m always partial to redheads!
Then I created a custom hood called Crystal Springs. Currently there are just three families and no community lots.
1) Melissa and Chris Cooper have three kids: twins Isla and Theo, as well as Amelia. Isla and Theo are teens, and Amelia is a child. Melissa is a brunette and Chris is blond, the twins are both blonde and Amelia is brunette. Isla also happens to look a lot like her mum!
They also have their own Bigfoot, who’s called Talin. They run a level 9 business from home... following a tip I found online a while ago, they run a 24/7 entertainment centre. Well, it’s really just a pool table, some poker tables and some mahjong tables. Plus a hot tub. Hopefully it’ll get to level 10 soon!
2) Maria and Miguel Lopez have twin sons Mateo and Rafael who are currently toddlers. They all have black hair.
3) Sarah and Craig McDonald recently became parents to twins Cameron (boy) and Catriona (girl). Again, another family of redheads although the twins are still babies so don’t have hair yet.
All in all, it seems like I really enjoy having multiples in game So much chaos!
I’m currently thinking of other potential family ideas for Crystal Springs. I think I’ll create a same-sex couple next, who adopt their kids. And then maybe a Sim who becomes a witch. Oh yeah, and it’ll need some community lots too!
While playing Lora and Cody, Lora got pregnant a few times.
I forgot to screenshot most of it, Got some screenshots of them as toddlers before one of them grew up. This is Zinny below.
And this is Cherri
Cherri grew up nicely with her family, she is very outgoing and active girl. Her father seems to really love and care about her a lot. Its adorable!

That really sucks!
English is not my first language so sorry if I make any mistakes!
So, here are some screenshots of everyone I mentioned previously.
The Jones Family
They have cats! Forgot to mention them... Vanilla and Nutmeg. Vanilla is female and Nutmeg is male.
Mark works in the military. It's not his lifetime want, but I don't often have Sims in the military and I thought it'd go with his mechanical skill; his preferred hobby is Tinkering.
Claire and Mark are both Family Sims... Mark rolled the want to have ten children. Nope! Perhaps I'll install a mod that allows for bigger households and then have a family have ten kids.
The magical floating baby glitch...
The girls' room. Beth is pink, Emma is blue, Faye is green and Katie is yellow.
Yes, the girls are all wearing my favourite toddler outfit. I was really happy when I found recolours of it on Mod the Sims, so now I can have a blue and purple/lilac version (as well as a few other colours I've not really used).
The downstairs homework room.
I gave the family a pool, as Emma's favourite hobby is Fitness. Beth and Katie both like Film and Literature, whilst Faye's favourite hobby is Cuisine, the same as Claire.
For a while, the girls wore this long-sleeved dress and tights combo...
... then I changed them to my favourite outfit
They bought a property in Twikkii Island, where they went to stay.
Mark visited the Mysterious Hut and fixed everything. He received a voodoo doll for his efforts!
When they got back home, it was soon birthday time!
I’ve been having fun with the latest family in Crystal Springs, the Murray-Joneses. The parents are Natasha and Alice. They adopted SIX kids in total. I decided to have each kid wear a colour from the gay pride flag! So we have...
1) Daniel, in red
2) Emily, in orange
3) Felicity, in yellow
4) Grace, in green
5) Hannah, in blue
6) Isaac, in purple.
Yeah, that’s four girls in a row... hahaha. Daniel, Emily and Grace all have blonde hair and green eyes. Felicity, Hannah and Isaac have black hair. Daniel just became a teen, Emily, Felicity and Grace are children, and Hannah and Isaac are toddlers (Isaac just became one). They’re all two days apart. Daniel is BFFs with a townie, and I might see if he can start a relationship with her. I might also have them move house. I originally had Natasha and Alice move into one of the lot bin houses, then extended it a bit which has worked so far, but really they need somewhere bigger. The kitchen/dining area in particular is too small. They also haven’t got much of a garden.
What happened in my game today: For the past week or something I've been working on my own custom University Subhood. I finished all the playable Sims and now I'm focusing on getting the dormies right.
So, I made 28 different dormies fitting in 7 different 'social groups' (Nerds, Jocks, Preppies, Hippies, Goths, Hipsters, and Regulars). And I assigned 1 Sim per social group to be a part of the secret society.
Once I got them all assigned as dormies I decided to playtest them a bit to see if all's working well and so far so good - everyone appeared well and all was well. But then I got to testing out the secret society...
I got a Sim taken by them and when they arrived ALL TWENTY-EIGHT TOWNIES were there to greet her
I guess I have to load up a backup and see where I went wrong XD

Dangggg, I don't know HOW, but for some reason said test student is moved in and a Secret Society member in all the backups Despite the secret society itself not even being there :C I'm really concerned.
Anyone knows how to REMOVE a Sim's secret society status using mods?
I always love it when people use the sliders to make truly unique Sims
As for his name: 'Domoor' happens to be the Dutch word for Dummy so I can easily imagine Kyle not being the sharpest tool in the shed XD
Hi
I like different looking Sims, too.

I believe you can use boolprop testingcheatsenabled true to remove Sims from the Secret Society. Problem is, you'll have to click on each Sim to remove them.
It is strange that Sims would be added without any Secret Society building having been added.

I think it worked Thanks thanks THANKS a lot, you saved me a lot of trouble there Rflong
As for how, I did some testing for my uni subhood, but somehow said tests also affected my backed up of that town on my desktop :thinking: Which has me really puzzled.

Well, sometimes blowing things up teaches us something.
I'm sure you'll get it right next try.

True, true XD Hopefully completing a main hood will help me out a bit for future references Thanks for the encouragement
God 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸, I was playing the Goth/Caliente family, Mortimer had just died of old age and his 2 children grew up to teenager. And then my game crashed. Lost 2 Sim days of progress I think... Mortimer is alive again and the kids are children again. I always try to save it as much as possible but i can't save it when there are ghosts active on the lot, which is a lot. 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸 this makes me mad.
English is not my first language so sorry if I make any mistakes!

Hi
Wonderful that it worked!
Oh, yes. Planning a bit a family drama.
Hi
I agree! It's so cute.
*....
Here is something I just saw in my game... I've never seen it before.
I can hear Kobe saying, "AaaarrrrR!!"
Beau's favourite hobby is Music and Dance. He loves playing with the xylophone!
When Dustin got home from school, he got lectured by Brandi for poor grades. Right in front of Angela, too. Poor guy.
Dustin's favourite hobby is Nature, which he discovered whilst collecting butterflies.
Not wishing to get told off again, Dustin decided to work on his homework.
Beau grew up! Brandi managed to teach him all his skills.
Brandi got into painting as a way of earning a bit of money. Her favourite hobby is Arts.
Dustin decided to quit his criminal job, and get one in the entertainment career as his Lifetime Want is to be top of that career.
It's a girl! Brandi immediately rolled the want to have ten children. Hahaha NOPE!
It wasn't long before Riley grew up. Brandi definitely went all-out with the pink, she was definitely happy to have a girl!
I think I'll go and play with the Curious family in Strangetown next.
Last time in my old gameplay, (before everything got corrupted) Lora met Cody and luckily I got to save him too. They got married last time and sadly didn't get to show it, although I got a cute pic of them together again in the new playthrough.

I decided to start an new Challenge - of course.
I made a Sim who makes me think of Cartoon Superheros. He's just so cute to me.
It's in a Neighborhood I made last year. His name is Kyle McDomoore.
It's a Mini Mansion.
The bar was added and drinks mixed, in hopes all the Sims would come hang out...
So, I made 28 different dormies fitting in 7 different 'social groups' (Nerds, Jocks, Preppies, Hippies, Goths, Hipsters, and Regulars). And I assigned 1 Sim per social group to be a part of the secret society.
Once I got them all assigned as dormies I decided to playtest them a bit to see if all's working well and so far so good - everyone appeared well and all was well. But then I got to testing out the secret society...
I got a Sim taken by them and when they arrived ALL TWENTY-EIGHT TOWNIES were there to greet her
