How do I make a new hood with custom townines?

Gastfyr:
I've seen several posts here talking about how many of you like to make hoods with custom townies that you get to pick exactly how they all look.  I understand some sort of teleporter cat is needed for this?  What other hacks/cheats are nessacary?

I am starting a new custom themed hood and it is important to me that all townies dress and look appropriate to the theme.  I'm planning on doing "deleteallcharacters" to get rid of the boring Pleasantview croud (all subhoods are allready attached).  I have notownieregen installed btw.

Is there a way to make custom social group townies?  Is there a way (short of all-in-one npcs) to make custom npcs?  I would also like to have the police and other npcs look and dress a certain way.  But it is very important that maids don't wear that skanky little outfit in the neighbourhood as it is based on medevial times.   ;)

I understand there are ways to change how townies and npcs look once they are randomly generated by the game, one being SimPE?

Sorry if I seem to know so little and that I ask so many questions.  I will try to find the teleporter cat everyone has been talking about.

Tsarina:
Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT "deleteallcharacters"! It will leave an awful lot of mess behind. Use an empty template instead.
I'm not so sure about the townie thing, though. When I made townies for my neighbourhood, I used the NPC and Townie Gun. It can be spawned by clicking on a sim when in debug mode. But I am sure that you'll be able to find instructions on how to do it y searching Google or this board.

Edited to clarify: I post before I think.

Gastfyr:
Okay then.  Not sure what's so bad about deleteallcharacters (other than the fact that it takes about 3 hours do actually do it and then it freezes the whole game and stuff...at least that's what it did the last time I did it on a new hood).   :D  I suppose empty templates can be found at someplace like MTS2?

By the way, thanks so much for your advice; it is really helpful.  See, I don't even know what an empty template is.  lol

Thanks!  I hadn't even gotten around to finding the teleporter cat yet.  I have about 5 windows open and I'm constantly getting distracted. lol
