Default Questions about Sims 2 neighborhoods
I have many glitches in my maxis neighborhoods so I asked for help...
Someone answered me that I should grab the clean versions of the maxis neighborhood because they're not as glitchy as the maxis ones (perhaps even not glitchy)

But anyway... where can I find them ?

The best versions are here:

If you download the subhood versions of the hoods, you can make your own uberhood.

I'd like to use them but I heard Tarlia cut the grand parents of the most sims to just his/her parents.

I resurrected some "long deceased"... Tariq Al Mahmoud (grandparent of Dina/Nina Caliente) and Isabella Fiorello (grandmother of Don Lothario) by relinking and fixing character data (completing it).
I married them off and they got their own children - they just messed the family tree..hehe

Anyway, sorry for off-topic
Are there any other maxis clean neighborhoods with all the deceased sims - (I really don't miss Goopy but I miss the deceased sims) Thanks anyway

The only other set of clean templates that I know are from MATY. Be sure to look for the "clean" version, not the "empty" version (which contains no sims at all).
http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/s...ic,13382.0.html

Note that these may not contain all of the fixes that Tarlia implemented and very likely have more corruption than her versions. I have no idea whether these templates have more of the deceased sims. You'll probably have to download them and see.

The clean 'hoods from MATY are even emptier than the Tarlia's.
I had a look... Don doesn't have any parents, also the same for the Caliente sisters...

I also did a check at the Goth Manor, they were no gravestones and Mortimer don't have any parents and there's no Bella in the family tree...(also not in the 'hood - I checked with SimPe)
So should I create my own clean neighborhood?

I know all of the issues, Lucy Burb is related to the Goths (Cornelia, Mortimer, Gretle, Victor, Frida Goth) which can be fixed by removing the relationships
Bella Goth has a death token which can be deleted (memories)...
And I have to relink all of the deceased Goths, Micheal Bachelor and Skip Broke (the one with green eyes) (Darleen is already linked)

I'm using tarlia's templates, and many of the premades have grandparents and great-grandparents. I don't know if all of the dead ancestors are there, but she certainly hasn't deleted them systematically.

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

Creating your own clean templates is a reasonable option, but expect to do a lot of work. If you do a good job, I'm sure that people would appreciate having those grandparents.

Tarlia fixed a lot of issues, but I believe that all of those issues are documented (often at MATY). I know that Tarlia posted a partial list of the things that she fixed, so you might want to look at that as a starting point:

They aren't really deleted?
So is it possble to import the Sim Description (in SimPe) from the original Pleasantview to the Tarlia's Pleasantview?
And later fixing up the family tree?

Or does it ruin the 'hood?
Because I really want to resurrect Isabella Fiorello (maternal grandmother of Don Lothario) and Tariq Almahmud (I think, anyway maternal grandfather of Nina/Dina)
because in my previous Pleasantview 'hood, I resurrected them and they got their own children (adoptive children, because they both were elders...)

Sorry for off topic but can deleted sims brought back?

Some can, some can't... depending upon the state of their character data. Celesta created character data for many of the sims that are missing data and you can download those files from the sims wikia:

In my sig. I have already added the data and clone all the first gen. Sims in the 3 base game hoods (including the ones EA deleted) and put them in hoods.
If you want to use them to get the data to fix yours then go ahead.

Which are the ones who EA deleted?
Do you mean which Tarlia deleted? Or did even EA delete some sims?

I thought all of the Goths have complete character files but how about sims of Strangetown - Lyla Grunt... I used to resurrect her once but she broke Strangetown so I could not enter it anymore.That's why I deleted it.
But what's special about her?

I don't believe that anyone will be able to tell you whether it's safe or not... you're on your own with this one.

Probably safer to clone the sims and add them to your neighborhood in CAS.

Yes the Goths have but I made a new hood so I included clones of them in, all the ones with out character data have been fixed and clone into these hoods.
For Lyla Grunt she has not been born yet in "The Beginning of Strangetown" hood.

These hoods were done so you can start all over again at the beginning and do them your way and not EA's way.

A lot of the now-a-day Sims don't have there parents DNA so using these hoods and having the babies in game will make all of them have there parents DNA.

Take the Bachelors, Simis in SimPE his hair genes are of red and Jocasta in SimPE her hair was blonde before it grayed but both Bella and Michael have black hair in Sims 2.

I'm going to download your beginning hoods... probably I'm writing a story about it (my Pleasantview with those beginning families) anyway a bit off topic...again I'm sorry.

Tarlia hoods have the "now-a-day" Sims with a lot of fixes added in.

My hoods have never been played and there is no corruption in them at all, they were made using clean environment using AGS (Any Game Starter) program with no Maxis content so all you get are the Sims and the hood. There are no townies or NPC in them as the time you download them, only the playable Sims.

Let me tell you how I made these Sims.
1. Using the Wiki I made Sims with all known data that the Wiki and in-game has on all deleted Sims.
2. I extracted the info from these Sims and use it to give the data back to the EA deleted Sims.
3. I then went and clone all these Sims to be able to make them new in these hoods.
4. Using the Wiki and in-game data I remade all of the Sims that are in these hoods.

They have only been made and never put on a lot.

No I did not use those, I use the Wiki to get there stats and I use the game to get what it had for the Sims, then I made a Sim from scratch with those stats to be able to extract the data from to replace what EA deleted.
