I can't fathom playing the megahoods; I have one hood with five households that I struggle to keep together and in sync with each other. With all the sims that come in the Megahood you downloaded you probably wouldn't get to playing your original sims anyway and if you did then you'd probably be neglecting the others defeating the purpose of downloading a Megahood in the first place.


In my current 'hood I play 22 households.  The neighbourhood as a whole is over 200 sim days old, and in sync with no struggle because of the fantastic tools provided on this very site.  My 'hood isn't even particularly large or old compared to the ones other members have posted about in the past.  You really should resist telling another TS2 player how to play their game, because unlike TS3, you probably have not imagined all of the possible ways it can be played.


lol not everyone is as hardcore a sims player as some other users. This is a very casual game after all. The point of my last sentence was simply to point out that there are enough households in the bigger Megahoods that the OP's own might well be negligible. I hardly meant to say PLAY THIS WAY OR DAI. Incidentally what does TS3 have to do with anything? You might be interested to know that I uninstalled it the day after I arr'd it. I still prefer TS2 for simming, myself.

... It's all of the default Maxis hoods joined by the mother of all time paradoxes...


I have a feeling you're idea of what the MegaHood is, is wrong.  It's not some enormous Hood, with the land/lot space of all hoods combined.  It's all of the sims from all of the Hoods combined into one normal Neighborhood.   Unless I'm totally off on what it is.

More sub-hoods does sound like the correct form of action here, by creating multiple subhoods in each category.  I wouldn't do exact copies of Downtown and Bluewater (as one doesn't need multiple copies of some of the sims and/or houses placed), but there are several empty pre-made varieties to choose from  or download other maps that modders have made.

You must not be much of a Sci-Fi fan. The statement "Mother of all paradoxes" was to imply that by default, neither neighborhood "exists" within the same time frame. Seeing as you can't take one sim and plop them into the next one without crashing your game, which is akin to taking someone from say, the 25th century and dropping them into 12th Europe with a laser rifle. It was just a figurative comment, not literal. Just because I only have 9 posts now doesn't mean I don't know the game works. Only an idiot would thing the Megahood actually adds more real-estate to an existing map.

GayJohnScarritt:
Let's see, almost every post you've made in this thread, was in relation to how PACKED your Hoods were, and that there is no more SPACE available.  

And then there was this little gem.

...As far as my "Default" Pleasantview, it's packed. As in so packed I can't fit anymore lots in it. (Using the camera mods, I have lots in places you'd normally not be able to place them.) Gotta be at least 40 or so lots, all of them inhabited.  ... My only other course of action has been to create my own sub-hoods, but that's a pain in the ass, and I admit to being a lazy bastard, which is why I came up with the wild theory posted above. But if it won't work, I'll just have to knuckle up and just make new sub-hoods myself. (I have sims packed in Pleasantview, Downtown AND Bluewater and I STILL need more space. That should give you an idea of how many sims I have running around.)


Now DIPSHIT, you tell me, how should I have taken EVERY FUCKING THING you've said?

How about I tell you to go fuck yourself instead, the tell you to get a life...because getting bent out of shape on a message board because you obviously can't take figurative expression mean you clearly DON'T have one.

Consider yourself dismissed.

Mods, do feel free to close this. I got my answer, anything further said here beating a dead horse, and I really don't enjoy picking on retards.
