Sunset Valley: A 3T2 Neighborhood Recreation

🌄🌳🌴🎣🎸️🏡🚸⛱️⛵🌅


Before Pleasantview, there was Sunset Valley. Founded by the Goth family, and built up by the Landgraabs to be a quiet, peaceful town. But when the Altos arrive with uptown ideals, will the townsfolk feel the need to choose sides?


Here it is (✨conveniently for my 1,000th post yay✨) my 3T2 recreation of Sunset Valley, the base game neighborhood from The Sims 3. It is a fully populated CC FREE neighborhood (on this wonderful terrain by Voleste) featuring the lots and Sims you know and love (or don’t) from the Sims 3. It was made with all EPs and SPs and checked with Hoodchecker. I’ve been working on this for about 5 months now and I’m so very excited to finally share it. I’ll try to keep it brief and bore you with all the long details below the cut. (Warning: it gets quite long)

💕 Special thanks to @drewinthesky, @jawusa, and @katatty for play-testing, giving me advice, and being all around wonderful human beings, as well as everyone who has been kind and encouraging throughout this project. 💕

Hi! If you have the Sims 3 Movie Stuff, do you think you could convert the Sim-Mobile to the Sims 2?

Hi anon! My answer to you is yes. I’ve wanted to learn how to convert objects for a long time and you finally gave me the push to do it. 🙂 So here it is:

The Sim-Mobile 3t2 from The Sims 3 Movie Stuff

Whether you are racing towards a crime, or away from one, the Sim-Mobile is the vehicle for stylish, high tech Sims! Fully equipped and guaranteed to be one of a kind, this custom racer is sure to be the talk of the town!

It is cloned from the sports car so you will need Nightlife to use it. It should have a unique GUID, three recolors, seats two Sims, and costs

§32,000. 

The headlights and taillights are in the proper places as well.

When your Sim gets in, the animation will look weird as your Sim will clip through the side of the car, when your Sim is fully in the car, they will snap to the slots that I moved to the middle so their heads won’t poke through the top. The windows aren’t transparent so it won’t matter what your Sims look like inside. The Woohoo and Make Out interactions are still available, but will not have an animation different from the Sims just sitting in the car. This was to get rid of the fog effect that no longer fits the car. Again you won’t see the Sims, so it doesn’t matter.

Enjoy! Also don’t be afraid to make requests, I’m always happy to try. 🙂

The Grotto

You don’t have to be a Rebel to enjoy the Grotto. It’s just a cool place to hang out.


Here I’ve recreated a Community Lot from the Sims 3 University Life. It’s a “Rebel” bar/hangout. It was built on a 5×5 lot with all EPs and Sps installed.

It uses some CC you can find here:

Danies-Simsational-Blog’s Sunset Valley as a Subhood

littlebitsims:

The moment I saw that @Danies-Simsational-Blog created Sunset Valley for The Sims 2, I said that it needed to be a subhood. A few others agreed, but nobody (besides Danie herself) offered to do it.

Well, I grew antsy about it and decided to make the subhood myself. Actually, I made two versions. Version 1 is just Sunset Valley as a subhood. Version 2 (Where’s Bella?) is the subhood without the Goth, Bachelor, Crumplebottom, and Landgraab families. Version 2 is mostly for those who are playing a Beginning Maxis Hood Series and don’t want those families interwinding with Sunset Valley’s version of the Goths, Bachelor’s, etc…

Both versions were created with AnyGameStarter and checked with HoodChecker. 

Installing instructions and download links are below the cut.

Hi everyone! Thanks to the efforts of this awesome Simmer, you can now grab Sunset Valley as a subhood! 💕💕💕

Sunset Valley: An (empty) 3T2 Neighborhood Recreation

🌄🌳🌴🎣🎸️🏡🚸⛱️⛵🌅

Here it is, the empty version of my 3t2 Sunset Valley (Grab the Populated Veresion HERE). It is a CC FREE neighborhood (on this wonderful terrain by Voleste) featuring the lots (without the Sims) you know and love (or don’t) from the Sims 3. It was made with all EPs and SPs and checked with Hoodchecker.

The empty neighborhood features:

  • 42 Residential lots
  • 22 Empty lots
  • 23 Community lots

🌄 Download 🌅


Feel free to do what you’d like with it. 🙂 💕 I would absolutely love to see what you do with it if you could tag it: #ts2 sunset valley

Let me know if you have any problems on this handy-dandy form HERE. (Idea courtesy of The Sims Community Project)

Hey everyone! Since I uploaded the neighborhood, I wanted to start CC-ing up my own game. I went searching for Cornelia Goth’s hair from TS3 and found this Simgaroop’d conversion by Skoogy. I went ahead and quickly made my own recolor to match Cornelia’s hair the way I wanted and I thought I would share for whoever wants it. 🙂 All ages are the purple color above, and Elder is a lighter pinkish-purple. I think it has everything you need, but if it doesn’t show up, try grabbing the mesh from the link.
