Bumping this thread as I'm now working on a world to host the TS1 and TS2 neighborhoods: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/966693/wip-the-sims-the-sims-2-neighbourhoods
I've also been puzzling out the history of how the timeline could make sense and recreating Sims from the original games, resurrecting ancestors, etc. I plan to eventually make a sort-of story out of it, probably in a format that is mainly screenshots and some vague paragraphs on the "history".
I'm starting in the 1920s with the Goths (Victor, Gretle and son Gunther) and Crumplebottoms (Simon, Prudence and daughters Cornelia and Agnes) in the "Old Country". By the late '30s they move to Sunset Valley (TS3) and they live there through the '50s. Old Town (TS1) is being built up during that time, prompting the creation of Neighborhood 1 where Gunther's son Mortimer and his wife Bella move to start their family in the late '70s/early '80s. Around this time, the Burbs move to a farm in Old Town and the Pleasants move to Neighborhood 1. Bob and Betty Newbie move in in the late '80s and they have a daughter, Brandi. The '90s and early 2000s set up for Pleasantview (TS2). I plan for it to end around 2005; approximately when The Sims 2 would start following Bella Goth's disappearance.
