  1. Information on custom neighborhood maps/terrains. A quick summary on how to download and install custom content, for computer-savvy users. MTS's Sims 2 Q&A.
  2. The custom neighborhood, when you extract it, should come in a folder with it's name included. You need to move this to EA games-The Sims 2-neighborhoods folder. You should now have your custom neighborhood. If there are any lots included in the neighborhood, they should already be there.
  3. Download a mod or hack from a Sims 2 website. Hacks are different from most custom content in that they alter game function, not just appearance. Many reputable hacks are typically found on Mod The Sims, More Awesome Than You, Simbology, and Leefish.

Welcome to Nekojima: a small island off the coast of Takemizu, where the cats outnumber the townspeople and everyone knows how to fish.

Sims mods are for THE SIMS 2 Posted by HChangeri on March 19, 2011. Just an FYI, all the meshes here are for The Sims 2, not The Sims 3. The last expansion pack I bought was Freetime. I have no idea if my content will work with the EPs that came out afterwards. If you have the later EPs and content doesn't work, then the content doesn't work. 2 more SC4 Terrains, smaller, flat beach lots « 1 2 » Sleepycat: 17 12312 June 26, 2008, 03:30:50 pm by boobear: SleepyBeach1: Sleepycat: 10 5955 June 26, 2008, 03:29:00 pm by boobear: Waterfront Lots for your favorite Sims « 1 2 » Diggrdude: 23 13998 June 26, 2008, 03:20:01 pm by boobear: Downtown Living Neighborhood Terrain: mstybl95.

Nekojima’s normally a quiet, cozy little place, watched over by Toomo, its resident goddess. But last year two of the island’s favorite citizens (and best fisherpeople) were lost at sea in a dangerous storm. Their families are still reeling from the blow.

Toshi Utagawa’s back in town, bringing along a baby and a slightly damaged heart. Speaking of hearts, there’s a new doctor in town that’s stolen a few. And the peace up at the ryokan’s been broken by the owners’ grandson. They can hear his guitar all the way down to the beach. We haven’t even mentioned the usual crop of summer guests! That mysterious writer doesn’t seem like she plans to head home any time soon, and some reporter’s been picking a fight with Nekojima’s only resident celebrity. He can’t be very good at his job….

It’s up to the Simmer to soothe things down - or stir them up even more!

Download desperate housewives season 1. Shout out to our playtesters, @yuka-sims, @letthemplaysims, @dunne-ias & @ejsims, too! You guys really helped make the hood as good as it could possibly be.

There’s a bit of information under the cut, along with the download link. Developer notes, required CC (just a little, we promise!), install instructions, all that good stuff. Read on & enjoy!

General Notes

A few things to know before you get started:

Sims 2 Custom Neighborhood Downloads

  • Nekojima probably isn’t beginner friendly in the same way the Maxis hoods are.It’s quite intricate and overall more focused on storytelling than gameplay, although it should still be plenty of fun to play!
  • There are some pretty sad elements. Grief is atheme in more than one household, but there’s ample opportunity for the player to cheer things up.
  • This is a roadless neighbourhood! This means you won’t be able to place new lots down, or move existing ones around. We think of the inability to place new lots as a feature ;) After all, it’s a remote island! If you try moving a lot and can’t get it to go back, just hit the escape key.
  • There are 8 unnocupied lots and one large empty 4x4 lot that could be used to build some apartments, if you’re desperate to get more families in there.
  • “Main Street” makes use of a few stacked lots, so that sims can live above their shops without having to run them as a home business! This could cause camera issues for some players and might take a little getting used to, but we feel like the aesthetic is worth it. Increasing the fade distance or turning off imposter lots altogether may help, if you find it a pain to play them.
  • The School & the Karaoke Bar are owned by townies. This allows for owned businesses which aren’t run by sims, but also means it’s trickier for players to make alterations to those lots.
  • We couldn’t work out a way to have a working hotel with playable guests, so Steamed Bun Springs is a household you need to get a little creative with.
  • Likewise, The Cat in the Bamboo Forest (an art gallery) can be run as a business in a number of ways. You can either have the artist paint and set the paintings for sale, or simply sell prints (we have included recolours of a maxis painting for this exact purpose, see reccomended downloads below.)
  • There are sims in the neighbourhood who went to collegeaccording to their memories, but we chose not to give them expanded want panels.They are easy enough to add with the batbox or other hack objects if desired.
  • A few of the lots use the cafeteria stove which came withuniversity. If you have mods to spawn a cafeteria worker, you may runinto problems with these! Either switch them out for another stove, or removethe mod in question.
  • Minoru Fujiwara, the town doctor, is related to the Nagatatownie/NPC family. However, they don’t show up on his family tree as weenvisage them being quite distant relatives, and didn’t want to make a bunch ofdead sims for ancestry purposes.
  • If you have trouble with graves not appearing in the churchyard, try running the Hoodchecker!

Required CC

Custom

We’ve tried to keep the neighbourhood as cc-free as we could, but there are a small number of things we had to include for practical purposes or to preserve a specific idea we had.

  • Invisible Fishing Pond. For fishing off the dock!
  • Castaway stories stone fence. You can get it from meetme’s full bundle, or just grab the fence only HERE.
  • Marvine’s ladder. A must-have for tiny houses!
  • This set of custom paintings. Extract them into the My Documents/EA Games/Sims 2/Paintings folder. These are for one of the sims in the neighbourhood who is a painter!
  • Invisible iron fence. This is used to keep routing sensible on the stacked lots.
  • Skell’s Asian Clothes & Takemizu Village Locals Completer.

Recommended Mods & CC

Sims 2 custom neighborhood download

There aren’t any mods you absolutely need to play Nekojima, but for the best possible experience (in addition to the usual corruption-saving and anti-regen mods) we have a few other recommendations:

  • These wall hanging recolours, for The Lady In Red & the Sims 3 plumbbob poster. Could come in handy for players who want to sell prints in the gallery instead of keeping the poor artist at the easel 24/7.
  • No memories clear. Townies in this hood all have detailed memories it would be a shame to lose! Squinge’s No Townies Memory Loss didn’t seem to do the trick 100%, but this has worked well in our testing.
  • Hire family members. The Sushi restaurant makes use of hired family. It will still play fine without this mod, but you won’t be able to change family member wages or assignments without it.
  • Allow strays on community lots. It just doesn’t feel like Nekojima without a few strays showing up wherever you go!
  • Perfect Plants OR Trim Inaccessible Bushes and Water Inaccessible Flowers. Should come in handy for managing gardens.

Compatibility Information

Europa was built with all EPs and SPs installed. It requires all EPs butshould still be playable without all SPs. Some items might be missing, though.
