Sims 3 Moonlight Falls: Have you played it?

There are a LOT of videos on Youtube for Moonlight Falls!
I started Sims 4 playing Rags to Riches in Moonwood Mills. I think mostly because I watched some videos for runaway teens that showed me how to play that scenario.
I have been playing a bit in Sunset Valley, but I deleted my entire Sims 3 folder and started over in Moonlight Falls. I think this might be the world where I really learn how to play this version of the game. I certainly have all the video tutorial support that I could ever need. It looks like Moonlight Falls was more popular than Moonwood Mills.
In Sims 4, we start off in CAS building a character. In Sims 3, it looks like we are meant to play the premades. I remade Bailey into more of what I once heard the author of Twilight describe the character Bella. Has anyone remade any of the characters, especially Waylon Wolff? He looks like a dirty old man. I absolutely must do something drastic to him.
I really like the Sims version that gives Edward/Tristan a single sister that dates the werewolf, instead of the triangle for Bella.
If you played this world, I'd love to know how you played it. Especially if you have played both Moonwood Mills and Moonlight Falls.

Always "River McIrish" ...and maybe some Bebe Hart. ~innocent expression~
Is it my imagination, or does the lore and backstory have more impact on the autonomous action of sims in Sims 3? In Sims 4 Moonwood Mills, the main characters are NPCs or own their houses in another world. In Sims 3 Moonlight Fall, I can play the sims discussed in the lore.
It feels so entirely different to play in Moonlight Falls than it did to play in Moonwood Mills. I think I will quickly lose interest in playing Bella/Bailey and Edward/Tristan, but I will learn to play townies while playing in Moonlight Falls. It will be here that I learn to play differently, because something is fundamentally different in ways that will be easiest for me to discover while playing these characters.
The attention to detail in this game is shocking to me. In a video, I learned that the pictures change at night, but have not had time to observe this for myself.
I think I should use NRaas to change Bella to a homeschooler, because I do not have time to explore the world between school and curfew. Charlie/Chester takes himself to work autonomously, but he does not clean up, cook, pay bills, or repair what he breaks autonomously. I usually play one-player families. I need to learn to multitask enough to play a family or remove him from the family.
Karritz thank you for these tips! I don't think I want Bella to turn.
I will look for the green moon!
I want to go explore the beach. I saw it in a video and it looked amazing! I love the beaches in Sims 3!
I love the lore that was included in this town with the Supernaturals. You can find out a lot about supernaturals by having your sim going to places like the Vault of Antiquity or Arboretum. (Sims Lore on YouTube also has several videos going over the lore of the townies
Fun fact: Apparently there's something in a vampire's brain that gives them great fashion sense hence why they're always sharply dressed according to the vault.
It's a great world if you enjoy playing supernaturals sims or just like the old, small town feel with a fantasy element.
Yes, I have been watching the Sims Lore videos. They are SO helpful!
The "old, small town feel". Yes! That is what attracts me to these worlds in both Sims 3 and Sims 4. When I first started playing in Moonwood Mills, I was avoiding the occult gameplay as much as possible.
Vampire fashion: thanks for the heads up!
There is so much to explore in this world that I doubt that I will get to it all.
I got these two worlds confused at first, too! I thought I had to buy the world from the store to play the occults. I figured out my mistake just in time.

That makes sense that they are in Appaloosa Plains. Thanks!!!! Pets came out before Supernatural?
I will watch the videos. Thanks!
I have been skimming your stories. I need to read them more closely. Thanks!
I'm pretty sure the bistro has an option to eat/drink outside in the base game. It's been a while since I played my save but if a bistro or diner has outside tables there should be an option to have your food there, no mods needed.
I just started over again with a young adult in a single-member household, so I don't waste so much time with school and curfews and family interactions. I want to use all the buildings, so that I can see what they do. In Sunset valley, there were always tables outside, but in Moonlight Falls, sometimes there are no tables. I need to systematically check each eating establishment. I have the rabbithole rugs mod installed too, but have not used it yet.
I can't wait to see them!
For example, I have added the showtime lots to Moonlight Falls. This includes the coffee shop which has a place to eat outside plus a showtime stage.
I always add the Stones Throw Greenhouse to whatever world I play in. And I add things I want into it. I add four Fruit and Veggie stands from the Al Fresco Market venue plus the Lemonade stall from the Al Fresco Market plus some spring riders and anything else I think I'd like to include at that time. To the Al Fresco Market venue I add a ping pong table from University Life plus the Coffee Bar from University Live and a few other things. So once you've made yourself thoroughly familiar with the contents of Moonlight Falls you should be able to add extra things you need to the world.

Thanks! I keep assuming that things that are available in the basegame world will also be available in Moonlight Falls.
Sharing what you have added is very helpful!
