Install Instructions:

backup

Backup your save folder somewhere.

Download the zip

Put the .save files into your save folder.

In game, select "Load Game" and you should see an entry called "NSB Save". Load that save.

You're all done! This save file is your filled Newcrest, so be sure not to overwrite it or you'll have to re-download the mod!

Notes:

Since this is a save file, it should always be compatible with every game version since the version I created it with, which is 1.42. I won't actively check every patch to make sure it's still working, so if you ever have issues with the file not loading properly just PM me and I'll look into it!

All of these lots and households are already uploaded to the gallery, under #NSB. I can figure out how to upload individual lots to MTS though, if you want.

The Sims packaged with this mod are all employed and equipped with various skills. The Price household (in the starter neighborhood) is designed to be a somewhat challenging family to play, and only have $20 to their name.

Permissions:

I've updated a couple of the lots to have Seasons-friendly roofing, and added hot/cold outfits for all of the Newcrest Sims! (Don't worry, Seasons isn't required.) The save was made with Seasons disabled though, so if you have Seasons you can still choose your starting season as usual. I also added a second save file which I'll explain down below, just know that there's two save files in the updated zip.So as I said up above, there's two save files included in this mod. One is "NSB Save", which is just a brand new save game with Newcrest filled, with the updates I listed above. The second one, "NSB Save - Townies" has all of the Newcrest updates including hot/cold outfits for EVERY townie from every pack that came out before Seasons. I only used CAS items from base game and their respective DLC, so you shouldn't have any issues. If you don't want your townies updated, you can just delete that save file when you load up your game. The townies weren't changed at all, just given new hot/cold outfits that match their style instead of being randomly generated. That's all for this update, thanks for downloading the mod!The Sims 4 has had a lot of substantial updates, including one that added a new, totally empty world for us to build on! The problem with this world is; not everyone is a builder. So, I took on the project of filling Newcrest with unique, modern-style houses, community lots, and families, for those of you who don't use Newcrest due to its... emptiness., so anyone can use it.I built everything myself, and have speed build/CAS videos for everything on my YouTube channel! I used the Sims 3 free-rotate, sizing up objects, split-leveling, half walls, and so on. The only new feature I didn't use was the major CAS update, as it came out as I was working on the last lot.As I said before, this is made with all base game content, but it isn't a mod--it's the save files containing the filled Newcrest. Please read the installation instructions below before you post issues about this not working!Firstly,! This "mod" is a save file, as I know no way to mod the game so that it replaces the empty Newcrest with the filled version I made every time you hit "new game". Because of this, the files you download do not go in your mod folder.Having a hard time finding your save folder? Its usual installation path is: Local Disk (C: )>Users>(current user)>My Documents>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4>savesSince these are all my own personal creations, you may not upload this anywhere else. You are more than welcome to use this in let's plays, and let me know if you do! I'll be sure to check them out.
