You can use a Mod and make the change in game if you want, Sim Blender, Sim Manipulator, InSimenator use which ever one you like best. Doing it in game might make it easier than doing it with SimPE.

I'm interested in the Mod mentioned above ^^^

I'm trying out a Monday-Monday rotation so have Modded my Seasons to match by giving 7 Days in each Season. However, I had to redo my hood again (I have so many backups it's ridiculous) because I made everyone start on Monday (time of day didn't matter) on the first day of Summer (first day of Winter for Riverblossom Hills) but the Season didn't switch on the first day.. So it says "7 Days until Fall" on a Tuesday. Grrrr, so now I've put everyone on a Sunday, gave them their Aspiration Benefits etc etc and hopefully it actually works out now. :/

Anyone else restart their hoods' as often as I do? Even after a "small" mistake? LOL.

@Fyren5 the mod is at http://faiuwle.wikidot.com/sims2hacks

I restart them all the time. It's becoming titing to start over, but I'm too much of a perfectionist, so I do it eventually again... .

True, but I've still got to do every single connection to every other sim. I've got nineteen in this generation and at least two more coming.

The download doesn't work - I tried both ways.

Clicking on the download link brings up Dropbox Error 404 and the "Save Link as" option says "failed - no file"

Edit: Completely missed the Important Announcement - oops!

Kestrellyn has a family entended mod, http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=610804, I'm not sure if it works like the other mod, but it better than manually changing the relationships.

For any that aren't on MTS yet, there's a link in my signature.

Finally started using the Lot Compressor, I'm cleaning out all of the Sim Data before I add these lots to my neighborhood. So far so good, though I wish I could clean all of the lots in my lot bin at the same time instead of one at a time

@Primavera - Might as well also merge + compressorize your CC while you're at it!

Trust me, I merge and compress my CC every time I download some. Only thing I gave up merging was my Buy_Build folder, just seeing the acronym MMAT makes me ill (and yes I have tried bundling most of the stuff in there, but some things still got overwritten) . I do bundle my walls and floors though , but my Hood Deco stays separate

Yes, but videos like this (below), gives you a warm heart for bad Sims 2 players

It bugs me that whenever I'm doing a lot that includes more than one "address" it always winds up being an apartment... The street-level entrances usually open on to businesses, but everything above the first or second floor makes more sense as residential space... so the whole lot becomes an apartment. I feel like there's not a good middle ground there...

For the first time ever my game started to hang when I tried to put a lot I renovated in the lot bin- not once, but twice. Had to shut my computer down two times because I couldn't get out of the game, words can't describe my rage right now

This is from how Sims 4 developers celebrated Halloween. It seems to me, but on this photo a dinosaur ate Sims 2.

The look on that dinosaur's face is how I feel when I try to search for TS2 information on google and get all the other games instead.

It looks like the dinosaur is farting Sims 4 bubbles.

Pinterest has made TS2 Google searches a 1,000 times worse, as that is all Google appears capable of suggesting anymore.

Cannot tell you how many times I've searched for something, only to come up with various Pinterest boards as an option, and then when I click on the boards tagged as having TS2 content only...it's mostly TS4.

@PenelopeT
Someone said here that putting -pinterest at the end of your search gets rid off the Pinterest links.
I tried this tip and it works.

Random thoughts:
I kinda of want to try a medieval challenge without going to the hassle of downloading stuff.
I'd like to play my hood but I have to set some things up first.

I hear you - it took me forever to start a fantasy-medieval hood because of the CC involved; the outfits were the most difficult part, probably because I'm picky about them. As interesting as the selection at Parsimonious is, sometimes I wish clothes and objects with the same mesh or style were at least grouped together (or maybe I missed a certain filter option?). I like setting hoods up and it's worth it for the immersion (YMMV on how much you actually need though), but yeah, CC-hunting can be tiring especially with our wonderfully crappy ISP.

My own random thoughts - dear self, please, please remember, that if you can't find something, it's most likely in the Deco - Miscellaneous section. Yes, even the anytime candles, super sucker vent, aquarium, and medicine cabinet. Don't ask why EAxis placed them there or didn't move them as the game went on - it's not good for your sanity. Maybe I should recategorize them soon... or maybe I'm just being picky about the medicine cabinet being under mirrors?

So Sims 4 really is crap.

Hey, some of those bubbles say 'Sims 3' and even 'Sims 2' on them.

Everyone keeps seeing the bubbles, but the first thing I thought was that the dinosaur was angry pooping and the "tail" was actually the result...

It's TS4's fault, I tell you! Their toilet "humor" is creeping on to the populace!

...I'll see myself out now.

Well I'm more a "start an integrated hood from scratch and see how things evolves thanks to taxes" kind of simmer and I like to stick to one hood.
I may sounds like a broken record but I often feel overwhelmed by the number of CC available out there.
One must have willpower to resist the urge to download everything. Good thing I'm not a hoarder!

Downloading had never been an issue though and I now have fibre optic internet.

So this dinosaur eat TS1, TS2 and the output he gets TS4 . Funny, but little sad.

Nah, he's definitely shouting for MOAR sims 1, 2 and 3 and farting Sims 4.
