The sims 1 opening cutscene houses 🏠🌳

Hi! Some time ago I recreated the 3 houses seen in the opening of ts1. The largest one is minimal cc (contains 2 fences that match the original almost 1:1) and the latter 2 are CC free. Enjoy :)

Download @ sfs

More pics under the cut!

These three lots aren't part of the downloadable neighborhood, but can be installed afterward if you wish. I designed these empty houses on purpose so as not to force you to download way to much additional files, however there may be wallpapers/floors or topiaries to install.

🏛️ The White House 🤵

It's a lot from the "Get Cool Stuff", where the Agent household lives. It install itself in the Sims 1 game at 2 Sim Lane, where the Mansion already is. 💾 DOWNLOAD SFS - Mediafire

🏦 The Maximus Mansion 💰

It's also a lot from The "Get Cool Stuff" section, where the Maximus family lives. It install itself at 4 Sim Lane. 💾 DOWNLOAD SFS - Mediafire

🏞️ The Valentino House 🏡

It's also a lot from The "Get Cool Stuff" section, where the Valentino family lives. It install itself at 4 Sim Lane. 💾 DOWNLOAD SFS - Mediafire

🏛️ The Snooty-Patooty Mansion 💸

It's also a lot from The "Get Cool Stuff" section, where the Snooty-Patooty family lives. It install itself at 2 Sim Lane. 💾 DOWNLOAD SFS - Mediafire

It's a very big project ! Between the lots and the sims, you have to be very sure of what you are doing. However, this post is there to guide you through the steps of installing everything.

🟪 Phase 1 - The "Lot Master Meshes Post" 🏗️

(for the unpopulated neighborhood) : This post contains links for custom content (Building and Buying Mode) needed that does not install itself with the packaged files and needs to be installed for lots to display properly. Not downloading those things can cause bug, especially food/shop displays.

🟥 Phase 2 - The "Chapters" posts : install the lots 🏡

These posts contain links to big downloads or entire download sub-folders containing the lots.packages (Neighborhood, Downtown, MagicTown etc.). Each lot.package file must be installed for every lot to display properly in the neighborhood with The Sims 2 Clean Pack Installer by Mootilda. For the lots, every CC is needed. The CC presentation in the lots posts (between pictures) serves to illustrate (or to show you an alternative or to thank a creator) and is included in the packaged file or the lot master-meshes post. The lots post where only to show what you are downloading, and for the ones who just want to pick and choose a particular lot for their own game.

🟧 Phase 3 - The Neighborhood 🏘️

The "Chapter 5" post includes every neighborhood decoration CC you need for the neighborhoods, after you installed every lot packaged file. When, you passed the check-list, you can choose what to download between all the options presented to you.

🟨 Phase 4 - The CAS Master Meshes Posts 1 and 2

A lot of CC presented in those posts are not strictly necessary. If you don't install a default replacement, you will end up with the maxis content. If you don't load a custom hairstyle or clothing, you can have a display bug, but that is quickly corrected with the "change appearance" option. Big bugs can occur when an eye or skin color is missing, so I deliberately build my sims with the Maxis eye/skin options. These posts are for the ones who want to install my populated neighborhood. For those who only want to choose a few sims from the families, each sim in each family post has their own content listed.

🟩 Phase 5 - Download & install the TS1 families Subhood 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

The Main (completely unpopulated) hood with the populated subhood is the best option to have a "Fresh Start" clean neighborhood. After deleting the subhood, you have to move the family in houses. The Sims 1 has a big family bin. Choosing who is going where is part of the game, it doesn't seem right to choose for you.

🟦 Phase 6 - Passed the check list 🎮

You chose, you installed, you PLAY ! (veni, vedi, vici...)

⚠️ I'm not going to lie to you. It's a big project. I tried by the past to handle that kind of installation and here is my advice, good or bad :

1 - Install every master-meshes, well organized in your files. 2 - Install every CC included in lot packages in one dedicated "messy" folder, to make the duplicate replacing themselves (there are a lot since I use a lot of time the same items... logic). 3 - Install the neighborhood deco nicely organized in your folders. 4 - Test the lots/neighborhoods, see if everything works. 5 - Exit your game and Run a program to search for duplicates (like this one for exemple), and suppress all duplicates files from the "lots packaged file CC folder" (suppress where it's still messy) 6 - If you want to organize the "messy" folder, you can run a program like the great Delphy Download Organizer to efficiently re-dispatch files according to your own classification. However, I strongly advise against using this software to locate duplicates. It has the option, but it doesn't work well.

long post, please read carefully

🌆 This sub-neighborhood includes all the Sims 1 families introduced in the Chapter 6 post. They may have family and/or friendship ties with each other, depending on their original biographies, which is why I refused to make separate family files. This requires a whole version without any connection between families, even genetic, because it can corrupt the neighborhood you put them in, and I didn't want to take that risk.

🗨️ Each family has a personalized household description since the TS1 Games didn't have the possibility to have one.

♍ With my own Sims 1 games and the SimsWiki, I could remake every sim with their origin personality (to the point) and their origin biography. I gave a new custom bio to all the sims who didn't have one, to initiate game-play.

I tried the neighborhood with @crispsandkerosene Rod Humble as the Mystery man. It's awesome !

💭 To complete the characters, I also implanted every playable sim with CC-free memories. This gives them a real story to complement their biographies. These stories can be very successful or, on the contrary, very sad… or even worse, depending on the case. If for some reason, this doesn't suit you, you can always rewrite the biographies and delete the memories. What has been created is offered to you as a basis for your own gaming desires. Only the Unburried family don't have memories or bio.

🐊 I'm perfectly aware that my sims aren't the most accurate ones. It was what felt right with the CC available, trying to use as less as possible. I refused to use my ordinary custom eyes and skin tones, to make the sims easier to export. It explains why the skin tones are not as accurate as I would like. But if you want real Sims 1t2 conversion accuracy, check @bayoubashsims blog and the TS1 section on it. There are wonderful sims and nice outfits to grab (It's where I take the Miss Lucille hat that I use in my game). The idea here was to create a neighborhood/subhood ready to play, with detailed TS1 characters.

🔊 Here again, every description, every name, every bio has been translated both in 🇫🇷 French and in 🇬🇧 English. If you wanna translate all of it in your own language, you can download my text files. They are odt (text) files with spreadsheets including both translations, one file for neighborhoods and lots, the other is for sims biographies and descriptions. You can build a Google file (I never came to learn how to make one) or send me back a translation on those spreadsheets. I can include the translations for the neighborhoods and the sims subhood if asked.

⚠️ ADDITIONAL MODS NEEDED !

🏆 For this subhood to work perfectly, YOU NEED the 50 CUSTOM LifeTime Wants by @lamare-sims. Indeed, I gave all the sims custom LTW according to their bio, their personality and sims stories across the franchise. 🧼 I gave the NPC custom career based on the NPC Carrer Packs 1 and 2 by TashaFaun for : Firefighter, Mail Carrier, Pizza Delivery, Repair, Animal Control 🧽 I also used the Cleaning Service Carrer by Szynszolina for : Maid, Gardener, Butler

🫂 The sub-neighborhood includes ONLY the previously featured sims (plus a dead thief, for personal stories). It has been cleaned with SimPE and Hood Checker to remove any unwanted file residue. There are 17 families household and 5 "extra" (NPCs + MagicTown Vendors + Hobbyists + Downtownies + Goth cemetery sims). I tested it, it seems to work just fine but but let me know if you have a problem.

🌉 IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD : 🧛‍♀️ Vampire Vicki is not a vampire yet (she has the memory of it, but she isn't actually : I didn't want vampire skin/overlay to mess with the character file... again). 🧚‍♀️ Mara Faerie Queen has the memory of being a plantsim (the game don't propose "fairy", I took the closest) but isn't actually either. 🧙 Vampire Vicki is a Bad Witch, Mara Faerie is a very Good Witch and Apothecary Todd is a neutral Witch. They all have max magic skills. 🧰 Every remade NPC aren't made NPC yet. Why ? Because NPC in subhood have their names randomized, and then, because I prefer give you ultimate choice about what to do with them.

☑️ CHECK LIST

💾 Did you make a backup of your Sims2 folder ? ⚒️ Did you check the family posts ? installed everything you need? 🎗️ Did you install the 50 CUSTOM LTW by @lamare-sims ? 💼 Did you install the custom NPC carreers ? 🙏 Did you send a prayer to the Gamer’s Gardian Angel ? 🦑 Did you exorcised the Pink Soup out of your PC ? ✅ Then you’re ready to GO !

🏘️ To Install the SUBHOOD, you have to put the neighborhood folder in your TS2 “Open for Business” installation folder : (Your TS2 Installation repertory)…/EP3/TSData/Res/Neighborhood Templates/

🥂 Here again, thank you for all your messages and support. It was an immense amount of time and work of creating, researching, and publishing, but I hope it was worth it. I love the Sims 2 for twenty years now, but I messed so much the Sims 1 "creepy crazy magic " vibe. I think a new game shouldn't come with a feeling of lost.

🏆 I also thank aaaaall the amazing CC creator who made all of it possible. If they are reading, I hope they would like to try the neighborhoods and enjoy it 🎉
