Hi guys! How are you?
Lately Iâve been re-watching one of my favourite show of all times... Desperate Housewives! I simply loved it, the actors, the stories, the settlement... And after 6 years, I still like to watch it on loop.
I donât know why, but I always thought it had something in common with The Sims (to be honest, the soundtracks from Sims 3 basegame sounded very similar to the ones from the show) and it has always bothered me that there was no a ready-to-play neighborhood for Sims 2.
However, few days ago, on MTS, Iâve finally found both the hood and some houses and I thought that it was time to try to do something with them! The creators, unfortunately, are not active anymore on the website, but their policy looks quite open, so hopefully what Iâm planning to do wonât upset anybody.
Also, since the lots are old (pre-Seasons, in some cases), Iâm trying to remove all the CC and replace it with items from the various expansions pack. Of course, they wonât be as good as the originals, but I think itâs a good compromise.
At the moment Iâve the hood ready, but I still need to fix all the lots. It will probably take ages, but hopefully Iâll be able to keep you updated. Finally, if you would like to help me, Iâve created a short survey with few ideas because Iâm struggling a bit with somethings... Itâs anonymous and it takes less than 5 minutes.
Thanks for reading this wall of text and hope to receive a lot of comments/critics.

whoops, should probably get to these before I embark on another round! replies under the cut to a bunch of stuff. Apologies if Iâve missed anything, I donât remember when I last did a replies post xD
Fuck-Ups Round
penig replied to your photoset âIâm really, really sorry.â âDo you even know what youâre apologizing...â
Ripp's on board with anybody who likes him. A dad like Buzz'll do that to you.
Pretty spot on!!! He does really like Jimmy a lot, but Rippâs not exactly picky falls in love SO easily :(

Awh!

"YO WATCHER DID YOU HEAR THAT? HE LIKES ME"
I honestly beamed when Ripp grinned at me haha, I love little moments like this!
strangetomato replied to your photoset âJimmy was surprised by the pang of pain he felt when he caught sight...â
Aww, poor Jimmy. :(

That face! :(

Dang it, Ripp, you and your uncontrollable feelings are going to break up the band!
Glad it wasnât just me who got upset for the boys, haha. Luckily it all worked out! for nowÂ

They really need to have a talk.
Yeah, their big chat was looooooong overdue, hahaha. Â
moocha-muses replied to your photoset âIgnore the fact that itâs suddenly daytime, haha! Some continuity...â
Aw, best friends! I friend-ship the heck out of Dustin and Ripp.
Me too! They get along really well and roll a lot of wants to interact, which is nice. Theyâre really similar kids in a lot of ways and I feel like they âgetâ each other, even if they donât always show it.

You tell him Brandi! xD
strangetomato replied to your photoset âDustin wakes up the following morning with a want panel revolving...â
I think the rest of the band could use some Mom-ing, too. :) That's so sweet that he suddenly wanted his mother.
I love the idea of Brandi as the Band Mom, showing up to their outdoor gigs with warm hats, scarfs and flasks of soup.Â
Makeovers

It looks amazing!
scibirg replied to your post âHey, I attached your Academie Le Tour to my megahood today, and WOW!...â
Thank you! I am so bad at hood decorating and always wanted to spiff up the universities.
didilysims replied to your photoset âHey! Iâve finished making over 88 Road to Nowhere and figured Iâd...â
I love that little poinsettia in the corner. And, y'know, everything about this. :D
didilysims replied to your photoset âMore adventures in trying to make over 88 Road to Nowhere without...â
I am also excited to see the return of the diner, by the way. :)
Thank you for the compliments, guys! I havenât been doing so much building lately since I want to play my game more, but Iâm really proud of all the stuff Iâve put up :)
didilysims replied to your photoset âDid a quick playtest and turns out although I placed a bunch of cars...â
Do they reset/reappear in 'hood view when you exit the lot? Just curious. :)
Weirdly I think they did still show up in hood view, but I could be mis-remembering!Â
Strangetown
didilysims replied to your post ârepliesâ
Ha ha, it's true. Sometimes it is just a little too easy to save a dying Sim.
It is! And come on, she was pregnant! Iâm not a monster.Â
didilysims replied to your photoset âI donât understand.â âIâm sorry, Tank, this is just too weird for...â
It's for the best. Your parents are a more interesting and unique couple anyway. ;)
didilysims replied to your photoset âI donât understand.â âIâm sorry, Tank, this is just too weird for...â
I do like Tank & Angela together though. And Tank's sad face here makes me feel a little bad for him...
I will fully admit to not particularly liking Tank and Angela together and being infuriated with their little affair, but I did feel kinda bad for Tank! Poor guys really liked her.Â
Angela would foresee potential problems later down the line and want to nip it in the bud. How awkward would it be bumping into your ex every Christmas or whatever? Of course, Lilith and Ripp werenât bothered by the whole thing but they both practically revel in horrible, awkward situations, haha!Â

Cute!
didilysims replied to your photoset âBuilt a cute set of beach hut apartments today! Itâs a shame you canât...â
Very cute! And clever idea with the lifesavers on the roof.
prettybabo replied to your photoset âBuilt a cute set of beach hut apartments today! Itâs a shame you canât...â
These are so lovely! They'd fit right into Poppyseed Ridge. Just sayin' ;)
andy-drews replied to your photoset âBuilt a cute set of beach hut apartments today! Itâs a shame you canât...â
Oh, please, telll me you're gong to share both of them! They're so cute <3
strangetomato replied to your photoset âBuilt a cute set of beach hut apartments today! Itâs a shame you canât...â
They look lovely. :)
Thank you for the love, guys!!! As I said in the post, Iâll be posting them up for download some time next week ;)
I canât imagine there would be a lot of putting the beach lot you see opposite, though... beach lots are tricky to place because they have to fit the terrain exactly, and so donât tend to transfer well between hoods!
didilysims replied to your photoset âBuilt a cute set of beach hut apartments today! Itâs a shame you canât...â
By the way, I remember vimpse mentioning beach apartments are possible, and she posted some gameplay from one or more. I've never tried it myself, but it seems there's at least a workaround if it's not as easy as entering the cheat.
I found a post about beach apartment lots by Mootilda HERE and yup, looks like theyâre possible! I probably wouldnât build any beach lots with the purposes of sharing for the reasons outlined above, but if Iâm ever doing a makeover for a specific lot or building a custom hood, this could be useful! Thanks <3
