Empty Custom Neighborhood Issues
Posted: March 12th, 2024, 7:13 pm
I have been trying to make a custom neighborhood that starts out empty of townies and of the stealth Pets and Seasons hoods. I installed the various hacks such as notownieregen and antiredundancy to limit the number of characters. I also renamed the NeighborhoodTemplates folders under Pets and Seasons program files so they would not load, and when I first started the new neighborhood, the "Creating Pets" and "Creating Weather" messages did not show up, as I intended. However, I looked in SimPE (I'm a complete newbie to it) and it appears that whatever I did worked too well; the Sim Browser for the neighborhood doesn't show any Sims at all, not even the Grim Reaper. The only thing I can think of is that I may have screwed up the neighborhood's numbering system; I deleted Strangetown and Veronaville (in-game), and this is listed as N002. The neighborhood I made for my Yeoman Farmer challenge is N004. I've put in a comparison screenshot to show the difference between the N004 (which has the default Pleasantview, Downtown, and Bluewater Village characters) and the new empty N002.
