A Fallout: New Vegas fan, known as FalloutPropMaster, has embarked on an ambitious project: recreating the Mojave Wasteland within The Sims 2. Tired of waiting for an official remaster, they're building a unique, life-simulation version of the iconic RPG. Instead of traditional RPG mechanics, FalloutPropMaster is leveraging The Sims 2's gameplay, incorporating need meters and AI-driven character behavior to create a post-apocalyptic "colony sim" where survival hinges on managing daily life in the harsh wasteland environment.

The project was inspired by existing, highly detailed Sims 2 recreations of New Vegas casinos. This sparked the idea to reconstruct locations like Goodsprings and the Strip, integrating them into a fully functional Sims 2 experience.

While experienced in modding Fallout 3 and New Vegas, The Sims 2 presents a new challenge for FalloutPropMaster. They are utilizing tools like FOMM, Blender, and Nifscope to meticulously transfer assets from New Vegas into the Sims 2 world.
The recent re-release of The Sims 2 with updated OS compatibility has fueled a resurgence in modding activity, making projects like this more feasible. The success of this unique endeavor remains to be seen, but the community is eagerly awaiting the results of this ambitious undertaking.
