One thing I don't like about meetmetotheriver's clean Pleasantview template is that it makes Bella a regular townie. The reason meetmetotheriver did this is because all of her clean templates were made with uberhoods in mind and she made it so that the townie Bella is the one that is related to the Goths. While I do like this idea. This does not make sense when using her clean Pleasantview on its own as Bella is meant to be missing so I don't want to see her walking around Pleasantview. You could sorta fix this with prisoner tag, but even prisoner tag doesn't completely stop Bella from appearing. So I decided to properly fix this myself.

This is meetme2theriver's clean Pleasantview but edited in SimPE so that Bella is actually missing. I did this by making Bella no longer be a townie and put her in the default family (she is now in the same family as the dead premades) and deleting the relationships she has with the pre-mades. This makes Bella function the exact same as in the original Maxis hood where the game treats her as dead, but she is shown to be alive in the family tree. I didn't touch anything else so everything besides Bella should be the exact same.

Thanks to Sunrader Sims as their tutorial on changing a sim's family instance taught me how to put Bella in the default family.

Technical explanation for how to make Bella missing

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to introduce Bella at some point while playing this hood, then don't try to resurrect her in game. You would need to go into SimPE and delete her death token.

To install you simply delete the N001 folder in your Neighborhoods folder and drag in this one.
(DO NOT DRAG IN THIS N001 FOLDER AND CLICK REPLACE CONTENTS BECAUSE THAT WILL CORRUPT THE HOOD!)

If you use my Pleasantview with tutorial Joe and Jane, then I have updated that hood so that it also makes Bella be missing.

Update 1
*Added a shopping district version for people that play uberhoods.

Update 2
*The subhood version now has a different filename then the main hood version which fixes an issue where the subhood version would not show up in game.

Update 3
*Added a no townies version.
(The only Maxis NPCs in this version are Kaylynn Langerak and Gordon King)

Update 4
*I discovered it was still possible for Bella to appear. If a member of the goth family ask you to go downtown with them, then Bella would be part of the group and be on the lot. (as all of friends of the sim that asked your sim would be added to the group)
*I fixed this by deleting all the reationships Bella had with the pre-mades. (Bella still appears in the goth family tree)
*Thanks to mtsimguy in the comments section for notifying me about this.
