The Sims 4 Sims 2 [Save File]

Update 2: Final version released, with reinstated ancestors.
All tombstones of ancestors are either in Windenburg Cemetary, The Capp/Monty ancestors are in Von Haunt Estate, and those who died in Olive's garden are in her backyard if you're looking for them. Additional families from other expansions have since been added as well.

I personally have always been a fan of the way the Sims 2 households were linked with a interconnected story. So for some time now I've been setting up a Sims 4 save, which features all base game Sims 2 families, with their complicated drama included and extensive family trees (sidenote do you know how depressing it got creating family lines to basically have to go yup, time for the ancestors to die now?). I even managed to get Kaylynn set up with a maid career AND working for Daniel Pleasant, wiped Bella Goth's memories (which deleted her marriage, freeing up Mortimer to be wooed by Dina, reuinted with Bella or whatever you decide), she can't even invite her family out when she travels, impregnated all those who were meant to be pregnant, tragically killed off loving parents and set up the vengeful vendetta's between the sims who had enemies.

There are also a few families from TS2 expansions, such as the Roths, Ottomas', Malcolm Landgraab IV, Newsons etc who I managed to fit in as well.

It's a very nostalgic trip rotating around the households. I'm waiting for the new pack to assign the correct career to Buzz Grunt (and potentially move some "Strangetown" families from Oasis Springs to the new town) but am planning to share it here for others to use as a base file or starter file.
Here are images from the household gallery showing off the families.


A massive thank you to @Carissalwhee (Origin), @Carisims (YT) who made a beautiful collection of TS2 families in her TS2 to TS4 series on YT, I took several of them as a base, converted to be #CCFree and then extended the blood line with their ancestors and drama set up. It took a long time but would have took even longer if it wasn't for her content inspiring me to start.

Some notes
- If you move Kaylynn into a lot, she will likely lose her job as a maid
- Brandi, Pascal and Samantha are all on the first trimester of their pregnancies, so if you want to witness them you're better off playing them first
- if you turn aging (short lifespan) on the elders will likely die within a few days
- if you wish to restore Bellas memories, you will need to use the Vampire Persephone to restore life spirit (we did try alien memory erase but it didn't work on all relationships)
- unfortunately on play testing I've seen some great-great-grandparents have had their portraits culled from the family tree following the latest patch. I've recreated them. Unless you play with culling off with a mod I'd personally experienced several ancestors being culled severing the trees. Potentionally releasing the spirit manually may keep them but I've yet to test in a separate file.
