Welcome to Riverview Reimagined - A complete overhaul/redo of Riverview as you know it!
" Riverview is a flourishing riverfront town with a diverse population nestled in the beautiful rolling countryside. The town was founded by the Harrington family some 200 years ago, and it has since grown significantly and begun to truly flourish, with a great sense of community. This is the ideal small, yet lively town to call home for a variety of reasons, including stunning panoramas from nearly every angle, a wide range of activities to do and sights to see, and interesting individuals to meet. Riverview is undoubtedly a remarkable town! "
WARNING:
The world may be laggy at times and take a while to load, depending on your computer specifications, but then again, The Sims 3 is a rather poorly optimised game.
Here are some general 'stats':
103 lots in total
55 residential lots (7 empty)
48 community lots
150 sims (including NPCs, role sims & animals)
30 households
This world has been PLAYTESTED by 5 other people, so no major issues should occur when playing this world, at least not any issues unheard of when generally playing this game.
REQUIRED:
ALL Expansion Packs
Tumblr media
RIVERVIEW (Free)
Since it is somehow not possible to include the bridges and distant terrain in the exported world, that metadata will not show up and you will need to download them and place them in your mods folder to appear in-game. Technically, these are not required, however, without them, parts of the town will not look very good. Luckily simsample on ModTheSims has our backs! Get them HERE
Scroll to the bottom of the page and download the following 2 files:
Bluefunk_Riverview_Bridges_InGame.package.zip
Bluefunk_Riverview_DistantTerrain_InGame.package.zip
Then, simply place them in your packages folder within your mods folder. If you do not have a mods folder, please refer to THIS easy tutorial.
They should show up in your game now.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
NRAAS MODS
NRAAS Mods are essential to a smooth, significantly less buggy game, as they assist in dealing with errors and things that cause performance issues in-game. - NRAAS Master Controller - NRAAS Overwatch - NRAAS Errortrap - NRAAS Register (optional) - NRAAS StoryProgression (optional)
HERE is a fantastic, in-depth explanation video of the NRAAS mods and what they do/how they work by the lovely acottonsock
FOR CAMPGROUND I could not find a way to place functional tents on the campground without them disappearing once the world was exported. There are a few workarounds, though.
1.) Simply type in the cheat "buydebug" and look for the tent/s that come with World Adventures. Purchase it for your sim, have them manually place it in their inventory, and from there you can place the tent/s on the campground for your sims to use. Alternatively, you can use the tents that come with Island Paradise, found in the miscellaneous part of the comfort section in buy mode. Do the same as instructed above and place the tent/s on the campground.
2.) Download this mod that enables the World Adventures tents from buydebug. In Edit Town, edit the campground and navigate to the community objects icon in build mode. From there, click on the infinity sign to load all community objects and rabbit holes. HERE you'll find the unlocked tents. Place them on the campground and they should be functional once you enter live mode.[I used the first option, "Tents as Community Objects"]
(NB!!! IF YOU INSTALL THIS MOD BEFORE LOADING THE WORLD, FUNCTIONAL TENTS WILL SHOW UP ON THE LOT.)
I'm really sad that I couldn't include the tents already, but I tried several different methods and none of them worked.
The world is populated, with 30 households in total, but there are plenty of houses available for purchase, as well as 7 empty lots.
CHANGES MADE TO THE WORLD ITSELF:
I manually replaced and added trees individually. It's a bit cluttered, but more lush, especially in the area around the campgrounds.
I manually replaced all the roads, intersections, and sidewalks. Credit goes to GrandeLlama
Added a small bay in the lake into which the river flows to add a campground with a pier.
Swapped the bridge near the campground with the green one found in Twinbrook.
Small changes and additions to some sidewalks.
Some lots were added and/or changed.
Some street addresses changed.
Other minor details.
~ I really wanted to add ghosts to the cemetery and some other lots, especially to add to the lore, but unfortunately it is not possible when exporting a world through CAW.
~ Most of the interior tips and tricks I used to make custom furniture/unique decor were my own, but for a few of them, the credit has to go to the wonderful and talented @theplumdot.
DISCLAIMERS/ISSUES:
~ I had several issues with the apartment lots but managed to fix most of them, except this one... The apartments are set to 'EP09 Apartments', which I accidentally set and even if I changed them to regular residential, they reverted back. This means roommates will appear after a while, but BEFORE you move your sims in, you can fix this by going into Edit Town, clicking on the lot, and changing it to 'Regular Lot'. If roommates still show up, you can cancel roommate services by clicking on your sim's phone and going to 'Real Estate and Travel Services'. Also, choosing where to move your sims in, two apartment lots in the central town area will be available for rent that is actually occupied and will add the existing sims as roommates. The only unoccupied apartment in town is the "Midview Apartments".
~ Some female sims have the weird two-tone blue and green lipstick from Into The Future for some outfits, mostly swimwear. I have no idea why this happened, but I tried multiple times to get rid of it but it keeps showing up again.
~ Pretty much all of the sims have gloves for their outerwear. I have this glitch where even if I remove them, they somehow show up again. Hey, Riverview gets cold in the winter!
~ The female butler, Arasha Shreshta's face goes all EA's "pudding face" when she is in her career outfit, but normal/the way I made her in her normal outfits. I have no why idea why this happens.
~ Some role NPCs might get stuck in the apartment buildings, but a simple reset should fix them. I've tried several workarounds to stop this from happening but to no avail. This tends to often occur in Bridgeport and would generate NRAAS "Unroutable Sim" popups.
~ Upon loading the world (no fly-in, unfortunately I'm not that technically inclined), you might notice the household thumbnails taking a while to load and pets showing up pitch black, it's just a simple graphical issue.
~ Most of the big houses are quite expensive, which I apologise for. I'm quite the perfectionist and detail is very important to me, which means it doesn't take much for my builds to become quite pricey.

Remington's Ruse
1 Remington Point
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jasper Remington: "Welcome esteemed guests, as we traverse through these halls of reverence and eccentricity. To some, it may be known as a peculiar masterpiece nestled atop a hill in the quaint town of Riverview, to others, perhaps, an eyesore—but to those of us who have the privilege to journey through her walls, to explore her architecture, we will come to understand, as the tour commences, that this house is not merely a testament to my unwavering vision and unbridled passion. Rather, it is a manifestation of divine intervention, granting me the ability to design this home with purpose and meaning."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cody Remington: Hey lady, are you lost or something? "Pardon me, seems I've wandered too far. What a charming bedroom. Is it yours?"
Cody: Yes Ma'am. Mine and my little sister's... Our bedroom isn't open to the public.
Tumblr media
"Of course, not. My apologies. I was just finishing up my tour here. I wouldn't want to impose any longer." The visitor replied with a courteous smile, nodding to Cody before turning to leave the bedroom.
Tumblr media
Cody: [Cocks eyebrow, softens tone] ...Need a hand there, ma'am? Could I carry your bag for you or something? "Oh, goodness, no! No, thank you sweetheart, I'm perfectly capable. You take good care now, okay?" Cody: Yes ma'am, likewise.

Eileen Remington: Who the hell are you? "Morgana Wolff." She spoke, so sweetly. Eileen: [Takes a long drag of cigarette, exhales] And what are you lookin' at, Morgana Wolff? Morgana: Nothing. Just all the smoke and ash that fills this home.

Started the project of renovating Riverview , lot by lot , without using Store items nor custom content - except for RH rugs -. Once done (which should take a while, I’m taking it slow), there should be a save file with all of the makeovers, in the meantime here is the latest one.
EVER FRESH DELIGHTS SUPERMARKET
Building/ remodeling Ever Fresh Delights Supermarket
Renovated on patch 1.67 -Originally in Riverview so best placed there - (Size: 20x25) - Lot label: Consignment Store
Replicated somewhat the RH building for the grocery Store + added a smaller store next door. Only 1 floor is visible (I used level skip markers on the other floors) but that lot is filled to the brim with small decorative items in both stores. Consignment Register + Food register, Grocery Store RH rug.
youtube
Using Items from: 
No Store Item
Using Grocery Store RH rug by Cazarupt
EPs: WA, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Seasons, University Life and Island Paradise.
 SPs: High End Loft, Fast Lane, Outdoor Living, Town Life, Mastersuite, 70s 80s 90s pack. I also own Diesel, and the Movie Stuff packs but I’m pretty sure I haven’t used anything from these in this lot.
DOWNLOAD
I use markers on my lots: skip level, hidden room, public room… So to be able to modify any of  these buildings you need to have cheats on:  ‘testingcheatsenabled true’, then ‘restrictbuildbuyinbuildings false’ To see/remove the markers you need ‘buydebug on.

The Reardon Ranch
An updated version of one of my oldest buildings, originally called;
The Reardon Farmhouse.
I significantly reduced the number of rooms in the house so now it only has 3 bedrooms instead of 7 & a bunch of other things.. but the base and layout of the lot stayed the same.
Download link coming tomorrow!

With a pop of colour and a show of support, Moncton’s River of Pride Parade took over downtown Saturday afternoon.
“Today is all about being happy and celebrating who we are,” said Lynn Bourque-Chevarie, the Riverview Pride lead.
“We had an amazing crowd, way more than I think we were prepared for, but that’s good it means there people getting involved in our community and are out here to celebrate with us.”
[...]
“It’s not just Moncton, it’s the tri-community we have Riverview, Dieppe and Moncton all coming together. I’ve had people tell me they came from Fredericton, Nova Scotia, so I think it’s great,” she said.

Kirsten Remington: Just a few more minutes Aunt Lydia? Please? I’m having so much fun playing!
Tumblr media
Lydia Remington: Just a few couldn’t hurt, I suppose. But then it’s off we go to wash up. Even your play clothes are filthy for play clothes!
Morgana: What a darling little angel she is. She has such a sunny disposition.
Lydia: Oh, yes, thank you kindly. She's my niece. Such a blessing, she is.
Tumblr media
Morgana settled next to Lydia on the picnic table.
Morgana: Her parents are the owners of the Remington house, aren't they? Such a complex environment to raise a child.
Lydia: [Contemplative sigh] Why, yes indeed. It wasn’t always this way. I managed to raise my daughter there without a hitch. But my brother, he's fixated on continually adding to that maze, making it more and more elaborate as the years go by. We—[brief pause, brows furrow] we don't live with them any longer. Not after the incident.
Morgana: You have a daughter of your own?
Lydia: Why, yes! She’s just a smidge older than Jasper’s boy, Cody... [Another pause, as if she's waiting for Morgana to push for answers] Her name is Hannah. Oh! Let me get my pocketbook, surely I have a photograph in my wallet.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lydia's face beamed with pride as she sorted passed her identification cards and simoleons from her wallet, showcasing her beloved family photographs.
Lydia: This is Hannah and her handsome beau, Aiden Jones. They’re high school sweethearts, graduating this year together.
Morgana: Beautiful! How lovely.
Lydia: What about you? Are any of these little scamps yours?
Morgana nonchalantly surveyed the park, observing the children merrily playing on the playground. Nearby, little Kirsten Remington, carefree and beaming, laughed joyfully as she performed a somersault in the grass, tumbling to the ground. Morgana casually rummaged through her purse, retrieving a photo she happened to have on hand, and unfolded it, handing it over to Lydia to show off.
Tumblr media
Morgana: Here they are. Aren't they just beautiful? [Gently straightening out the folds with her velvet-gloved fingertips]
Lydia: [Softly gasps] Oh my! Two little towheads! I would’ve never expected, what with your hair being so dark.
Morgana: Yes. [Smiles pridefully] They’re blonde like their mother.
Later that evening, Lydia bid farewell to Kirsten and embarked on the drive home alone. The baffling interaction she had with the stranger at the park lingered in her mind, and she couldn't shake the unease that followed as she navigated the winding Riverview roads. Lydia's hands tightened on the steering wheel. Her heart raced with an inexplicable sense of dread. She tried to shake the feeling, 'The Remingtons have always had a history of paranoia' she thought to herself. The stranger's voice howled louder and louder in her head. What started as a well-wish, started to feel more like a sinister warning: "drive safe."
Tumblr media
The remains of Lydia Remington were discovered beneath a bridge in Riverview following a motor vehicle accident. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
