Line 5: ==The Sims== Unfortunately, ''The Sims'' does not provide an easy way to reset game settings back to their defaults. However, if ~~the player~~you simply ~~wants~~want to restore [[Neighborhood 1]] and [[Neighborhood 2]] back to their default, unmodified states, ~~they~~you can do the following: # Download the UserData folders for the neighborhoods [https://simfileshare.net/download/498606/ here]. Line 31: #'''E001''' is [[Belladonna Cove]] # Find the folder of the neighborhood you want to reset and delete it. # Now go to the ''C:\Program Files\EA GAMES'' folder. If you have the ''Ultimate Collection'', go to the ''C:\Program Files\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection'' folder. If you have a 64-bit system, the folders may be located in ''C:\Program Files (x86)'' instead. ~~# Now go to the ''''C:\Program Files\EA GAMES'' folder.~~ # If you're resetting Pleasantview, Strangetown, or Veronaville, go to the ''The Sims 2'' folder<ref group="n">If you have ''The Sims 2 Deluxe'' or, ''The Sims 2 Double Deluxe'', or the ''Ultimate Collection'', go to the ''The Sims 2 Deluxe'' or ''The Sims 2 Double Deluxe'' folders, then go to the ''Base'' folder.</ref> #* If you're resetting Riverblossom Hills, go to the ''The Sims 2 Seasons'' folder. #* If you're resetting Desiderata Valley, go to the ''The Sims 2 FreeTime'' folder. #* If you're resetting Belladonna Cove, go to the ''The Sims 2 Apartment Life'' folder. # Now go through the following folders: TSData → Res → UserData → Neighborhoods. # You'll see folders with the folder IDs of the premade neighborhoods. These are the default, unmodified copies of the premade neighborhoods. Right-click on the folder of the neighborhood you want to reset and select "Copy". # Go back to ''C:\Users\<your username>\Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods'', right-click on any empty spot, and select "Paste". The template should be copied over and placed in the main ''Neighborhoods'' folder. Line 66: ==The Sims 4== Similar to ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', you can simply delete the game's folder: ~~{{Expand}}~~ # Navigate to your ''C:\Users\<your username>\Documents\Electronic Arts'' folder. # Delete the ''The Sims 4'' folder. '''Warning:''' This will reset your game's settings, clear out the library, delete all your saves and delete all your installed custom content and mods. However, it will not delete anything from your online [[The Sims 4 Gallery\|gallery]], as that data is kept at [[Electronic Arts\|EA]]'s servers. If you would like to keep anything (such as your saves or your library content), [[Game guide:Backing up your game\|back up]] your files before you delete the ''The Sims 4'' folder. After the game generates a new folder, replace your backed up data. ==Notes== Line 74 ⟶ 81: * [http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Reset_All_User_Files Game Help:Reset All User Files] on Simswiki.info (For ''The Sims 2'') * [http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Reset_Neighborhoods Game Help:Reset Neighborhoods] on Simswiki.info (For ''The Sims 2'') [[Category:The Sims game guides]] [[Category:The Sims 2 game guides]] [[Category:The Sims 3 game guides]] [[Category:The Sims 4 game guides]]
