I'm saying you don't have to do "apartment-like" dorms with myne doors. Do real apartments with apartment doors, and you'll have all Sims on one lot but only need to control one at a time, and you can interact with the others. Either when they come out of their apartments, or by going to visit their apartment.

But hey, it was just a suggestion in case you didn't know the option existed. Now you do. if it's not appealing to you then it's not and that's that.

Oh! This is great then. Thanks for the heads up. No..I never thought apthack did this.
@gummilutt
Do i rezone as apart base or dorm though..with apthack?
I changed all my myne doors to unique separator ones., then rezone apart base. I moved the paper boy in (testing with him..first)
He arrive with a cab, with the college icon, but then went straight to the punching bag. he did not grow up into a YA...but he can rent.
What am I not getting? lol
Well, I got this one instead. I still don't know if i can move a teen directly in an apt, or if I must move them into a proper dorm first, so they have the cinematic + grow up thing.

I have another question, this time about deleting a neighborhood.
I won't be playing N002 anymore. It was my daughter's hood, when she was playing on my computer. Since this is part of my old EA Games folder, it is also in the backup i have..which I am playing now. I have installed TS2 on my daughter's laptop, and she has her Hood...can I safely delete my N002? What will then happen with both Hoods I am playing, N001 & N003?

Nothing should happen, you will just have one less hood.

Okay..then if i create one more? Will it be named N002 since it is missing, or just N004?

You zone as apartmentbase. If you have inteen you have to move your Sims to a dorm first so they grow up to YAs, then move them to the apartment lot. If you don't have inteen I'm not sure what the problem is. I've had inteen since before I started using apartments on campus, so never tried moving a teen directly in to apartments.

New hood should be named N002. It'll take whichever lowest number is available in the N-series.

That's what I see in my game too. I rotate by seasons, so save and exit a lot when the season changes. It's not only a slightly different time per lot, the time of the season change moves a bit each season within one lot. At first I thought the differences were due to my having used the season changer from sim wardrobe when first moving my sims into a lot, so I tracked the time for lots I'd both changed and ones I'd never even placed a season changer. They all had the seasons change a little bit earlier in the morning for a few seasons then suddenly have one season that switched a couple of hours later. I keep meaning to track the time that each day rolls over to the next as I am fairly sure that shifts about, too, but I tend to miss noticing it. Most of my lots currently change between 2 am and 4 am; if they go as late a 5:30, I now tend to use the season changer to bump them as I want to save and exit before everyone wakes up.

I've never used a season changer, though after reading your post I think maybe I should! I would like it if the season consistently changed at or before sunrise, as that's usually when I save and exit a lot. I had one today change over at 8:15 am, and I thought that was rather excessive.

Is Pascal carrying a brown eyes gene? I'm not entirely sure how genetics work in TS2, but something like this would be totally possible irl.

Well dark blue is also a dominant eye colour in sims. Does Pascal have dead parents? Could be one had brown eyes.

I am planning to build a new hood. my question is.. can i have a hood without townies, just with the sims I created !? I got empty hoods and mods ... I just would like to know if this makes something bad to my game if the game does not generate townies !

Hey guys... I just now started playing a bit in Veronaville (yup, been around since TS1 days, and have just gotten over to V-Ville)
I moved Bianca into a house; fixed it up, fixed her up - she is one brainy Italian hottie now! (Watch out you Capp dudes!)
Then I took her across the street to visit the Veronaville Market...
O. M. G. What is this place? I've never seen such an EAxian mess! Am I missing something here?
Is there a reason for all the fenced-in toilet stalls? Or, for the awkward walk-way that goes above them?
*sigh* So much for "playing"! Full renovation mode has firmly kicked back on again...

Before I let loose the wrecking ball - Is there a story/reason behind this lot?
Thanks

You will find that many Veronaville lots are like that. Some lucky Elizabethan nerd got to build Veronaville lots, and he was a lot more interested in doing things like recreating authentic Shakespearean stages than in playability. Freefalldreams has the skinny on what's supposed to be what. The Summerdream house is a reproduction of The Globe, for example. Which is very clever and all, but I had to bulldoze the damn thing in order to get the kids off to school in the morning - there simply wasn't any good way around the damn ditch at the foundation.

Ugly is in the heart of the beholder.

Thank you!!! In the back of my brain, I remember hearing something about that before - and I don't want to mess things up. (Well, anymore than they are already messed) *sigh*

No it's fine. I will warn you though - LIttle Carping was free of townies for several years until I finally got tired of the emptiness of the hood. Sure, there were the playable neighbours but after a while I missed the random townies. So I made my own. Which was actually fun (I'm still finishing them off) but took a long time.

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.

I have notownieregen, I also have NO premade Hoods, and no stealth hood..something like that. maybe it is because of my Townie resident (mod for apartment tenant being townies instead of social group)But I always end up seeing new people...I wonder why. (other than service sims I would hire/need, of course)

When I play apartments in my townie-clean hood I use this mod: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=511564 and I avoid to search for roommate.

Why are my waiters all walking down three flights of stairs (and whatever) to take dirty plates to the curb trashcan when there is a perfectly good sink right in the kitchen, and how do I get them to stop? It's terribly inefficient and just looks really stupid too.
