Many Sims have relocated to the quiet, comfortable countryside, in the hopes that life and family can firmly plant their roots in the middle of nowhere. Fresh crops aren’t the only thing growing in the farming community of Riverblossom Hills – love is in the air and many a relationship is on the verge of blossoming. Unfortunately, problems are bound to sprout in a town this small. Things are looking up, but hearts can always turn cold with the onset of winter. ALT RIVERBLOSSOM HILLS V2  [Main Hood | Subhood]More info under the cut.Required CC:Life Stories Buy BundleLife Stories Build BundleAlt Riverblossom Hills V2 CC BundleRequired Mods:Slot Mods: by hafiseazale, by GwenkeRecommended Mods:A semi-transparent Plantsim default - some examples include Held by the Roots from @withlovefromsimtown​ or this one by AquilegiaMy Aromanticism project mods - Alexandra Teatherton in this neighborhood is canonically an aromantic lesbian. I didn’t add the aromantic trait in this download, but I suggest adding some of the mods in to make it more accurate.KNOWN ISSUES:If you use a non-semitransparent Plantsim default, Daisy Greenman’s face might use the AF plantsim face texture. Just apply facepaint to her, then remove it again to fix it.INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:for main hood (ALRH):  Put directly in your Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods folder.for shopping district (SDRH): Put in your -INSTALL LOCATION-\The Sims 2 Open For Business\TSData\Res\NeighborhoodTemplate folder.FOR ULTIMATE COLLECTION USERS: follow the same instructions, except your base game folder is under Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base, and your OFB folder is under Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Best for Business\EP3 Delete the G002 stealth hood in your Seasons installation folder so you don’t end up with duplicates of the Ottomas and Ramaswami familiesNotable Changes:All occupied residential lots have been made over. I didn’t touch any of the community lots or the unoccupied lots, but you can find a few makeovers for them somewhere else.Two new households: I added in the Ottomas and Ramaswami families to this neighborhood and integrated them with the rest of the neighborhood as much as I could. Basic makeovers for all premades. Most of the clothing and hairstyles should come from the game, but I used some CC for a few premadesOverhauled the Turn-Ons and Turn-Offs for the teen and adult premades.Added at least one Pet in all households.All faces, if necessary, have been adjusted to Maxian face length proportions. This should sort out any interesting genetic quirks that may come from breeding certain premades (although it would not totally eliminate them) There are various changes to sims’ memories and relationships. As to what some of them are, it’s for you to find out, but some may be familiar if you’ve played the V1 version.Household Changes:GreenmanJason Greenman has been made into a Plantsim, given that he has a locked want for it.Jason’s face has been lengthened to Maxian proportions.Rose Greenman has been given a job in the Natural Science careerJason and Daisy should now have a parent-child relationship and recognize each other as family.
