Sims Life Stories: Four Corners - lots and sims rebuilt for Sims 3
https://i.imgur.com/HmbQw2C.png
For the last few months, I have been remaking various odds and ends from Sims 2 and its spinoffs inside Sims 3 as a sort of personal challenge. Today I have completed the majority of Four Corners, using Riverview as the 'construction ground' for everything.
Four Corners is the primary neighbourhood shipped with Sims Life Stories, and is for all intents and purposes, a 'lost' Sims 2 town, as it can, with a lot of work, be imported into Sims 2 itself. Since its pretty much unknown by a lot of Sims players, I focused on finishing remakes of its content before the likes of Pleasantview or Strangetown.
Four Corners exists in two variants: 'Riley's Story', the primary version of Four Corners, where the story mode takes places, and 'Freeplay', a cut down version with several story characters deleted, and almost every lot from the original is present, but altered in some way. The playable sims also have some differences, usually in the clothing assignments and bios. Freeplay also has an (almost) ENTIRELY different set of townies and NPCs, with only one townie preset in both versions (and even then, he has different skills and so forth between them). I have created these variants as alternative downloads, and the optimal Four Corners for Sims 3 would be a mix of the two.
Sadly, I cannot figure out how to use Create-A-World, it seems to be the most user-unfriendly editor I have ever used, and is extremely counter-intuitive. Riverview works fine though, just delete a lot of the default lots, remove the premades and NPCs with master controller, and you can simulate the Four Corners story. Ive had a blast doing so. If anyone wants to take a crack at building a fully fledged world for these lots, that would be amazing!
I will be posting lots and families in this thread one by one. As of this post, I still have the townies and NPCs to make, but they are rather low priority. In each lot or family, I'll share the alternative versions, and also share technical info needed to stitch together the neighbourhood with Master Controller and other maintenance mods
