Currently building/setting up a new uberhood made out of custom populated neighborhoods that I like to play, because I can never decide and stick to one thing. It's mostly desert setting so I'll probably make "empty" subhoods containing only the Sims out of the non-desert ones, so I can just add the Sims and move them in somewhere else. Main hood is gonna be Strangetown, but because I'm a completionist I've downloaded the Overkill-Strangetown SC4 Terrain by @chrisnewbie and plan to put all the Strangetown Sims from all the games in there, possibly add La Fiesta Tech and maybe even the TS2 Stories Sims (probably not though. Or maybe only Pet Stories).
So my current set-up looks like this:
- Main: Strangetown (uber version, no or few townies)
- Downtown: Emerald Heights
- University: Cactus Canyon, Quadington, LFT (Playable Sims + Secret Society only)
- Vacation: Winter Wonderland (mountain), possibly Felicity Island (tropical), ??? (far east). Maybe turn Nekojima into vacation hood? Hmm.
- Subhood 1: Sedona Deluxe + Copperhead City (Sims only) + maybe Pitstop Valley
-Subhood 2: Jeans Shaker Oasis
- Subhood 3: Service Area
- Subhood 4: Saguaro Desert + Douglasville + maybe Blackrock (no or few townies)
- Subhood 5: Softpines (on a dirt terrain) + Oak Hill + Oaken Valley
- Subhood 6: Arkhelios + Winterose (Sims only) + Nekojima (if not Vacation Hood)
I also got the Sims of Polgannon, Nekojima (not sure what to do with them yet) ... I've removed the bulk of dead ancestors from all the hoods to strip them down a little [edited to add I've also removed excess NPCs from all the hoods so far, in particular those stupid useless drivers] but still feel like this *might* be slightly overkill. Lol.
