Make Your Own Enderby
Because NL is Not Backwards Compatible
And anyways, even if it was - or if everyone had NL, I still wouldn't upload it. Does 265 Megabytes mean anything to anyone?

Part One: The Basics

You will need:

1 Pleasantview
1 Strangetown
1 Veronaville
1 Manse Orleans
2 Sim State Universities
Some of the houses from the orignial lotbin.

This description: Enderby, on the River Weddel, was founded decades ago by its illustrious Mayor, Marty DeFacto IV. But he mysteriously disappeared. Where? How? Why?

I will need:

The first version of the map, so I know what on earth I'm talking about.

A coffee

Part Two: The Beginning Bit

1. Create a new neighbourhood. The terrain we will use is "sample.sc4." Terrain type is Lush/Grass/Green, whatever you want to call it. If you don't have that terrain, click here.
2. Name the new neighbourhood "Enderby" (w/o the quotation marks. Obviously.) Copy the description from here into the dialogue box which asks for a description.
3. Assign Sim State University to the neighbourhood.
4. Kill, delete and/or burninate the Maxis-made playable students. Delete their urns/graves.
This step is optional. It's only because they don't exist in my Enderby.
5. Quit the game. Find your Enderby's Neighbourhood folder. Have you saved that picture? Rename it so that the N004 matches whatever number your Enderby is - i.e. if it's N010, rename it N010_Neighborhood, etc.

Part Three: Housing and That

Section A: Pleasantview

In Pleasantview, first evict the Pleasants and the Dreamers.

Then, go to where the Dreamers until recently lived. Repaint the house blue. For reference, see this picture:


Delete Darleen's tombstone. We don't want excess ghosts, now, do we?

Save and exit to the neighbourhood. Add the house to the lotbin.

Also, we want to add the Pleasant family's house. Do that now, lest ye forget.
And the ones infront and behind it.

Also, we need to snarf:
Woodland Park
130 Sim Lane
105 Sim Lane
210 Wright Way
That little white house across the road from the Pleasants

Would a picture make it any easier?


Section B: Sim State University

Add Sim State U to this Pleasantview. There's no reason for using the lots from Enderby - that'll just ruin stuff. Enter the Campus. From it, take the Campus Coffee House (Two Jags Coffee House), Sim State Library (Enderby Central Library) and the Student Union (Enderby Town Hall)

You may now delete this incarnation of Pleasantview.

Section C: Strangetown

We only need two houses from Strangetown:

That giant community lot with a pool (94 Road to Nowhere, aka Prescott Street Spa)
The Spectre/er Household. But this time we want to keep Ophelia and Olive. Why? Ophelia's married to Jay, that's why.

Please, remember to delete any extraneous memories related to random Strangetown Peoples, like Johnny Smith and Ripp Grunt.

Section D: Verona
Calling it Veronaville sounds tacky.

Only two more lots this time, too. We will need:

That little store near the Montagues'. I think it's 5 Pentameter Parkway - I know it as Sullivan Way Stores.
There's also one of the unoccupied mansions near the Capulets. It's 80 Bard Boulevard.

Section E: Placement

Step 1: Arrange the houses thus, and rename them as they are here. (Original name: New name) Don't worry about the ones covered in black - they have since been deleted.




Step 2: Arrange the other houses that are still in the lotbin thus, and once again, rename them.



Don't worry about the DeFacto family's house. I'm sure you'll think of some other house they could live in.

On to Part Four in the next post - otherwise the bandwithy-ness will go mad.
