Hello, comrades!
Some weeks ago I found my old exclusive set of hood deco - Big Ben + Westminster Palace, created in 2014 for someone’s request. It has some flaws, but I still decided to share it. Maybe I’ll fix it later, but I’m a bit buzy right now, so no promises.
Thank you, @charlotkas-simblr, for the awesome screens!DOWNLOAD

NEIGHBORHOOD CAMERA + DRcursor
As you know, the default the Sims 2 neighborhood camera is very limited. There are many different mods that expands its capabilities. I searched for the most convenient mod for a long time, but all of them had unpleasant bugs - for example, they got stuck on maps like Downtown, and none of them allowed changing the vertical angle of the camera as in lot view.
Finally, I found a camera from The Jessa Channel. It is a really convenient mod which allow to rotate the camera in any direction, has a large zoom and comfortable movement around the NH map without “bouncing” at the borders.
Moreover, there were several minor flaws I have fixed. Thus, in my edition of the Jessa NH camera mod, the zoom works smoothly with the + and - keys, and also the “clipping issues” (also known as z-fighting) are solved
Features: (default - fixed)
Distance:
Rotation:
Clipping:
Zoom (scroll)
Zoom (keys)
According to the text, the camera is based on a CTNutmegger’s file. Many thanks to Jessa for editing and publishing this camera. Since the original file is no longer available for download, I asked Jessa for permission to publish the edited mod in my blog, and she kindly allowed me to do this!

Also, due to the fact this mod allows to change the angle of rotation of the camera both horizontally and vertically, I made a small default replacement of the horizontal neighborhood rotation cursor, replacing it with the lot rotation cursor. It accordingly displays the rotation in any direction. You can download it here
If you are using the amazing Clean UI, you have to know optional horizontal & vertical cursor for the neighborhood camera is included. The file is called neighborhood-camera-cursor-horizontal-and-vertical.package and is located in the choose-one-clean-ui-neighborhood-camera-cursor folder. Thank you @greatcheesecakepersona for your attention to the idea!
Thank you all for your attention to my work!

Lowedeus’s Updated Clean and Empty Neighborhood Templates for More International Languages Support
Remember the Clean And Empty Neighborhood Templates I released like 4 years ago?
Apparently, the base game and the first add-ons (University and Nightlife) were released later in some countries, out of sync with international releases. That’s why some languages, that present in local licensed versions of TS2, weren’t included in my original templates. This is true for Hungarian and Russian.
So, the amazing @lowedeus fixed the resources of the BG hoods, universities and Downtown subhoods with the resources from his licensed copy of TS2 to add support for the missing languages.
You can find his updated clean and empty templates here! Other than the language strings, nothing has changed though. :)
Thanks a bunch, @lowedeus for your hard work! It’s greatly appreciated! <3
As always, happy simming! :)
Note: Templates since OFB already include these languages. It’s just the early TS2 games that had missing language strings for some languages.
