Finally, after 2 years I have finished it! And just in time for the ts2 gba/ds 20th anniversary! The neighborhood folder is SE47

All sims from the sims 2 ds, gba and psp are here except for characters that had no lines, such as shopkeepers and Tank Grunt since he's in the original Strangetown. The psp townies are also missing, I plan to add them in the future. There are 137 character files in total. Almost everyone has at least parents, which are mostly original creations by me. All sims have memories and customized lifetime wants, interests, etc. There are 15 families on the map and 10 in the bin. (I will add images later)

I also added some new buildings to match the Strangetown storytelling images, such as the school, the Curious family home and the motel, because it bothered me that those places didn't exist. :P

I made this using the Ultimate Collection. I tested it on the Legacy Collection and on a different machine and it should work, but when I tried to load the Strangetown Hotel it just kept loading forever. I don't know if that's because it was Legacy Collection, a different computer or something else. The lot is very big and heavy, but I was able to run it on my own computer which is older. IKEA objects will disappear in the Legacy Collection. Please let me know of any issues or oversights you notice and I will fix them!

If the mod is available elsewhere please let me know and I will remove my reupload. Reccomended: - Subhood Selection Fix by Mootilda - Mannequin babies can be born by bloodredtoe - Sim Bio on Tombstones by lazyduchess -You need a camera mod to view the whole neighborhood. Installation: It is a shopping district, so put it in your C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Open For Business\TSData\Res\NeighborhoodTemplate folder. The file path can vary a bit but it will be similar. You need Mootilda's Subhood Selection Fix to be able to add it to a neighborhood. Always back up your neighborhood before adding a subhood! If you wanna play it as a main hood then just put it in your neighborhoods folder, load it, turn on testing cheats and enter changeNeighborhoodType primary into the cheat console. Townies get renamed so they have to be fixed in simpe manually. The only townies in this hood are the aliens from the sims 2 DS, Dripple (white), Keeble (dark green) and Zimmer (olive green)[I used in game skins and overlays, should work without issue] and there is also Murky Waters and Donald Q. Hotee. For the aliens I leave their last names empty.
