Check your other hoods if you like, just in case ...
Hrm... I was going to ask about Belladonna Cove, but I just want it to add the apartment buildings to my lot bin. That's not worth the huge file upload...

The N001 was only 38MB zipped. If you want Belladonna I can pop it up a bit later.

If you're feeling particularly generous of your time and effort, upload all of the original files and I will save them to my MATY section and link to them in the first post.

Hey! What about my MOAR EMMA TORTURE? You can't do that unless you give me MOAR EMMA TORTURE!

Click the picture on the previous page. If that's not enough, I'll take suggestions.

'Kay, this should link you to a folder containing 16 vanilla hoods. I don't think I missed any. http://www.4shared.com/dir/11718673/ddbf9193/Hoods.htmlI certainly didn't mind doing this, after all, I've used the clean hoods often enough so this is small repayment.

Did you do this yet? I don't see a link in the first post. I don't mind them being in the 4shared, but if I forget to go into it at least once a month, I think, they delete all the files. It would be a shame to lose them. I just lost my internet for a couple of days and was panicking they'd disappear.

I'll keep them ready in the meantime.

I don't mind taking one for the cause. I know a couple of files are deleted from my 4shared account because, like witch, I keep forgetting to go in there. It'd be a relief to just delete them all and have more space. Yayz. *Emma prepares for torture

You know, the more stoic and accepting you are, the harder it will be. I'm going to have to do something really awful if you're determined to be a good sport about it.

What can I say? I am getting used to the Goopy torture, especially as he seems to have disappeared from Awesomeland I will remind you that Emma Torture day is coming up next month though. Don't use up all your torture ideas or you will never win the Grand Prize!

The required Emma Torture has been posted. I will be adding the vanilla hoods over the next day, and I will edit the first post of this thread to link to them when the process is complete.

Thanks for this synopsis. Considering the differant definitions I've read for clean/fixed/vanilla hoods - and that not all the templates you list go to a downloadable, I'll be getting 3 from 1one link, and 12 from the 4-share link in this thread. Would prefer hoods with the playable families (with clean DNA) but happy to take whatever I can get. But {ducking in preparation for blows with stupid stick} Jorid's directions are not specific for this process of replaceing default hoods. I would guess removing (backing up) folders (just individual hoods?). And can I (do I need to) run patches after installing the defaults?

All of the files are hosted on MATY, using links the in the first post that immediately follow the link to Emma's 4shaded account (although you can certainly use the 4shared if you prefer). Patches should be irrelevant to these defaults, and you should always back up game files before replacing them with mods -- but if you don't, the replacements are in the last link in the original post.

Feeling brave, I submit another question: am I correct to assume that an empty OR a "cleaned" hood {meaning playable sims are still in houses} will no longer function as a master or stealth hood? i.e.: Pleasantview & Bluewater will no longer create townies or sims in bin when a new hood is created? I have found a template for G--2, the stealth aspect of G001 (Bluewater).

This should have been so simple, but the bin is FULL of Sims! On new computer, I re-installed packs (I have all, plus Glam Life), got the antiredundancy, stuff, default faces, etc. Went through replacement process with 3 Cleaned hoods (from 1st page of the original post, and 13 hoods (from 4Shared link), made carefull notes of process. Entered game FOR THE FIRST TIME; went to Stranagetown & looked in bin - it's full! I was expecting occupied houses in the hood (I didn't even look in the lot bin), but no one in bin. Went to Disiderata & looked in bin - also full. Since these were "vanilla" - and I've read differant definitions of that - I wasn't sure what it would have; maybe occupied houses, but still expected empty bins. I ran away AARRRRGGG...OK what now? And yes, I have read both strings AGAIN, CAREFULLY, and nothing matches this virgin installation that was supposed to be so easy. (Easy? a week of research, and takeing all day to do everthing so c a r e f u l l y?). And while I am new at computer stuff, I aren't stuupid. Alas, I have obviously f..s... messed up. Details provided if you need more torture. Helpers will be blessed with special Wiccan blessy thingy.

Something simple to try first. Delete the Sims 2 folder in My Documents, then start your game. Who shows up that you don't want? Did you replace templates in Program Files with Empty or Cleaned and Fixed?

Did you ,with any hope, not empty your recycle bin recently? I usually zip whatever folder I'm going to change before I change it.
