👽 Presenting... Swapped Strangetown! 👽

🎈 A little gift for the 20th birthday of the Sims 2! 🎁

Love Strangetown, but tired of playing the same stories over and over? Well, here's a brand new version of Strangetown for you to sink your teeth into! 🏜️

A few years ago I made a series of pictures around the concept of the Strangetown premades, but with their backstories shuffled around to make new stories. A few times now people have asked if it's a real neighbourhood they can download so, well, now it is!

Features:

Same sims, different stories: General Buzz is now the mysterious widower of 13 Dead End Lane, Loki Beaker lives on 2 Cover Up Road with his wife and sister and is expecting an alien baby, Pollination Tech #9 is now in the military, and so on!

New relationships: Olive Specter and Glabe Curious have a rivalry that dates back to high school, Chloe and Ripp are dating, Glarn and PT9 are old enemies, and more!

Some changes to the canon timeline, for example Glarn still being alive and his abduction being more recent. There are other tweaks, too, like the teens all being a little younger.

Brand new lots for every household, combining their old and new aesthetics

New aspirations for some sims!

Main hood install instructions: Unzip STSW and place in My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighbourhoods folder.

Notes & Known Issues:

The neighbourhood makes use of all EPs and Stuff Packs. EPs are definitely all required, but it should still be playable without all SPs. Some items will be missing though!

Some of the memories and ages of sims might not match up 100%, I shuffled things around a bit so there might be continuity issues if you look too close! 😅

Deceased sims do not have memories (this was already the case in the original hood, I didn't feel like adding them) and may not have correct relationships

Graves should be fine. If you have issues with them not appearing, try running the hood checker!

This neighbourhood uses @meetmetotheriver's Strangetown as a base (thank you for your hard work, meetme!), and so does not come with Bella Goth.

Welcome Wagons will show up! (unless you have a mod that disables them)

A few NPCs such as drivers spawned during play are included.

I did tweak the LTWs, but turn-ons are randomised. Feel free to suit any of these to suit your headcanons/storylines/etc, like you would with the basegame Strangetown.

Kirsten Loste is pretty much a blank slate, just like Ajay is in vanilla Strangetown

If you run into any technical issues, please send me an ask and I can try and troubleshoot.

Finally, if you play with this neighbourhood, please tag me if you'd like, I would love to see what you do with it!

You know I love the grunge
