Uberhood - A CC-FREE SAVE FILE - Download v.3
1. Overview
The Uberhood is an ongoing PROJECT where I’m creating a savefile, with all the worlds and lore from The Sims 2 ported to The Sims 4.
It currently includes Pleasantview, Strangetown, Veronaville and Three Lakes. That’s 7 residential worlds, one vacation world, and all the career lots (detective, hospital and science lab). It also includes all the premade families as well as the iconic townies that lived in those worlds in The Sims 2 times. They all have jobs, relationships, sentiments, lifestyles and reputation (please do check the sentiments because there’s a lot of drama in there! - but be quick because sentiments fade over time even if you’re not playing the house, and there’s nothing I can do about it…hoping a modder fixes this!)
Note that this is not a an exact replica of The Sims 2 worlds. While everything is inspired by Pleasantview, Strangetown and Veronaville, I wanted to update everyone’s looks as well as the looks of the houses and community lots. All builds are built from scratch and they are not “makeovers” of any EA builds. I’d like to think this is what TS2 team would have done if the game had been released in 2021 with the packs that we have today.

2. The towns
The save currently includes:
Pleasantview (Willow Creek)
Pleasantview Plains (Newcrest)
Strangetown (Strangerville)
Ordinary Springs (Oasis Springs)
Career lots
Bluewater Promenade (Magnolia Promenade)
Veronaville (Windenburg)
Three Lakes (Granite Falls)
TOOL was used to decorate outside the playable area (added parked cars, playgrounds, etc.), but you don’t need TOOL for the save to work or for the objects to show. I also added rabbit and bird spawners in Three Lakes and some areas of Veronaville.
THE REST OF THE WORLDS (EXCEPT HENFORD) ARE 100% EMPTY, as I will be developing them in future versions of the save.

3. Required packs and How to Install (PLEASE READ)
ALL EXPANSION, GAME PACKS,STUFF PACKS AND KITS RELEASED UP UNTIL COTTAGE LIVING ARE REQUIRED. Yes, Star Wars is now required, sorry!
If you don’t have them, sims may be half naked, and/or bald and stuff may be missing. Install at your own risk.
In order to install:
BACK UP YOUR SAVES.
Download the the SAVE file.
Put the save in your SAVES folder. Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4 > Saves. I changed the name of the file so that it will hopefully not overwrite any of your saves (including the previous v1). If your system prompts you to overwrite a save, do not click yes. Just change the name of the save (keep it 8 numbers but change the numbers) and try again.
Optional: Put the .package file (StrangetownTexts.package) in your mods folder. This file is used to change the Strangerville mystery a bit, and turn it into the Strangetown mystery (with custom texts, references to the Bella mystery, etc.). Please install it if you want to have some clues on what happened to Bella!!
4. Play Order
There’s really no set play order but note that:
1.- Brandi Broke is pregnant and will give birth in 3 days regardless of who you play and regardless of whether aging is on or off, so play with her first if you want to be there for the birth.
2.- Same thing applies to Pascal Curious, who’s also pregnant at the start of the save.
3.- And finally, please note the Summerdreams are throwing a wedding party on Saturday! So play with them that day if you want to be there!
5. Recommended CC
With the exception of the optional Strangetown Texts package, this is a CC Free save, these sims were originally created using CC skintones and eyes so they look best with CC in my opinion. In fact they creep me out without CC.
Please see my resources if you want to download the same default skintones and eyes that I use: https://anotherplumbob.tumblr.com/FAQ
7. Special thanks
I’d like to thank @ophelia-nygmos for putting up with my in Discord throughout this project, and also for testing the save and creating some of the amazing townies you’ll see running around.
And also sppecial thanks to @stsciurus and @ophelia-nygmos for letting me use their builds! (You’ll see them marked with an asterisk!).
8. Disclaimer and TOU
I’m just one person and there may be some bugs here or there.
Feel free to report them but I will only fix them if I consider them super relevant or game breaking, otherwise the save is provided as is and you install it at your own risk.
THE TERMS OF USE ARE: Be nice and don’s steal others creations!
