I've been culling some CC to try and get a handle on a crashing issue...so I'm starting over. I've been working on this hood for like 15 years now...no reason to finish any time soon! lolDo you have any unconventional lots, like a church or hospital or fire station? What kinds of lots do you have in your hoods? Share away...I'm looking for inspiration!And here's some pics of the hood I'm abandoning:https://i.imgur.com/J2aVGh7.jpghttps://i.imgur.com/RsAdF3Y.jpg

Ooh...an architects office. Never thought of that one. Do you put the drafting table there and just have sims skill there? Do they sell houses? Do you know if it is possible to have a real estate office. I vaguely remember that you could, but I don't remember how.

Yes, you can sell lots- community lots- at a Restate office. :)They buy the lots and sell them like other thing. :)*Hang the lot plaque which is put in their inventories once they buy the lot. Be careful, they can sell their own lot out from under them. I had Mortimer Goth buy up the whole town of community areas in Pleasantview once, then I sent Sims there to buy their new business. It made sense to me. XDThis was the last neighborhood I made to play some challenges. https://i.imgur.com/QChHTpZ.jpgThis is one I'm playing now- a Hopeless Apocalypsehttps://i.imgur.com/IgHOaWa.jpgThis is just on the back side of Downtown for the Hopeful Apocalypse I'm also playing. They're sharing the same 4 lots right now. :)https://i.imgur.com/ODKnfli.jpg

@Mstybl95, @Rflong7, OMG these hoods are great. I usually stick to Sims 4, but your hoods are giving me an itch to play Sims 2.

Thanks, @brentdegray :mrgreen: I forgot to say how much I like your layout, @Mstybl95 It's got a nice City feel to it. :+1:

Yes, townies will buy them. If a Townie buys them they become available to buy again. The townies don't keep them like they would if it were a statue or cake. :) Which is wonderful. A Player Sim buys it, they keep it. The option to sell it to them comes up before they can buy it, iirc. :)

Medieval Pleasantview? XD Now makes me wonder how the Pleasantview storyline would go if set in the actual middle ages and with Medieval values and such... ;)

Thanks :mrgreen:

It is Pleasantview. I used Mootilda's Hood Replace to change out the map. :)
After I play out the main stories- the first day of activities~ like the Goth wedding, the Pleasant breakup, and so on; then I move the graves, move them out, and delete their houses to start fresh. :)

I really don't know when it decides the neighborhoods are too big, I just know it won't let me play my Grid City. :(

I still got room to add in some additional rental housing areas too! :)

OMG your campus looks amazing. I'm going to have to fire up Sims 2 today!

I definitely miss they layout of Sims 2 neighborhoods. So reminiscent... I wish they never took down the Sims 2 Exchange. All of my old stories were on there! I love this thread by the way.

OMG @mortia ! You built the world of my dreams. It's amazing. And all of what you said is what I love about TS2, too. It was a game - with real game play mechanics. The expansion that could be accomplished with it was what made the game so enduring.

@mortia -That looks great and it should be fun to play it and watch it grow.

Here's my BACC town below.

BACC-DODGE.
Here's where I selected the town map I would load up as my BACC game.

I also added the community lot template.
