Thanks jsalemi and sleepycat! This whole thing about what exactly townies, downtownies and NPCs are is jus confusing me to the max! Thanks for all your help! I'll go create my townies now!  Cheesy

It's me again...  I have all the cleaned-up templates up to pets and am playing a custom neighbourhood. I recently added Bluewater Village to my neighbourhood therefore the playable sims from Bluewater Village started showing up in my custom neighbourhood as expected. I now own a business in my community lot... The question is:

I tried to hire employees but not only was the list limited, they were all either playable sims from my neighbourhood or from Bluewater V... How do I hire a non playable sim or townie safely? Do I just spawn them with the Townie Maker and hire them as per normal?

Thanks! And Sorry if my question sounds really stupid cos I'm really terrible with computers and technical stuff so I jus want to be extra careful...

I plan to start my game 'afresh' therefore I will still backup, but I won't be replacing any folders with the backup copy... Do I need to replace my current Pleasantview, StrangeTown & Veronaville folders with your Cleaned & Fixed ones 1st (so that these 3 neighbourhoods would be clean and fresh?

This is what I plan to do, do correct me if I'm wrong Thanks...  Smiley

Replace all my current Pleasantview, StrangeTown & Veronaville folders with your Cleaned & Fixed ones --> Replace my current NL folders with your Cleaned Up Templates for NL (Downtown) ---> Install OFB & Pets --->Install your Cleaned Up Templates for OFB & Pets ---> Run the Game! Cheesy

Thanks Again! I really appreciate it!  Smiley

Hi! I'm totally new at this and really Huh when it comes to computers so thanks for your patience and time... I currently have the base game and NL installed, been playing for some time now. I recently bought OFB & Pets and have not installed them yet as I think getting your advice before I do anything stupid is the best thing to do! My question is:

1) I would like to install my new OFB & Pets EPs and start playing my game with the totally fresh neighbourhoods (with the maxis lots and houses but without all the default characters). How should I go about doing that without messing things up? Should I jus go ahead and install OFB & Pets then 'cleanup' the neighbourhoods with your downloads? Or best to re-install everything?

There is no need to reinstall your game. Smiley

Install OFB and Pets one after the other, but do not run the game after installation completes. Follow the instructions I gave and install my empty templates. Then start playing. That's all you need to do.

If you run the game after installing the Pets EP, a lot of characters (including dozens of strays) will be dumped into each of your neighborhoods. So it's very important that you install the empty templates before playing. The Pets (and Seasons) EP's automatically attach a sub-hood (which cannot be visited like the Nightlife sub-hood) to every neighborhood that you already have or create. The only way to stop this is to install the empty templates as soon as you install Pets (or Seasons) and before running the game after installing.

I hope that helps you decide what to do.

Thanks! Smiley
1) Do I have to worry about the memories of all the sims, townies,npcs etc from my past few weeks of palying the base game + NL? Furthermore I had quite a number of log errors from that time (had to use the 'boolprop testingcheatsenabled true' just to get into lots, it's sloved now though)... Will that all affect the new installations?
2) Ermmm... Which of your templates should I actually download? (I would like the default playable sims without the townies/npcs/downtownies...)  Embarrassed

Thanks Again!

Thanks A Million!  Smiley
