Island Paradise - Tips, Fixes, and Mods

So I have been playing in Island Paradise which I usually skipped that world altogether because of the lag and just issues it has. I'm also not a big fan of the more modern style in which a lot of the houses were built. 

So like usual I was over trolling and scrolling threads at MTS and I caught one that got me thinking hmm I wonder if Island Paradise could be fixed or helped. I also happened to be working on a few side mods for resorts between MTS and Reddit helping a fellow redditor out. 

This got me thinking I really should put something together for anyone else that wants to play but is afraid of the issues with it. So here we go!

TIPS

STARTING ISLAND PARADISE

Saving a Fixed Version of Island Paradise

• I started my original Island Paradise by working on the Fixes first (I have more to come but I need to take more in game screen shots for tutorials)
• If you are a NRAAS Junkie like me I apply all my Master Controller, Story Progression, Overwatch changes
• Save
• Name this save something like IP_FIXED_NRAAS
• I then run this through Kuree Save Cleaner (I'm not such a fan of the newer one that is out because it made my saves funky. That's just me. Users Choice)
• I have a Folder on my mediafire and my desktop (I duel back up because life happens)

I keep this now as my base Island Paradise. This is my save I will play from instead of starting a fresh Island Paradise. I also move that whole save folder out when I don't feel like playing Island Paradise and I'm playing other worlds. It just keeps my Save folder from becoming a mess.
