Sims 4-The 10 Squared Challenge and Photos

 Hi Everyone,

I created a new challenge for Sims 4 that combines the Basic Legacy challenge and the 100 Baby Challenge.  Each Generation will have 10 children and at the end of the challenge, there should be 100 children at the end.  Here are the rules I have drafted so far.  This challenge is still a work in progress so some of these rules might have to be tweaked as I go along.

1. Follow Pinstar's basic legacy rules.  No cheats especially money cheats.  Cheats are allowed to fix game glitches only. 

2. Create a sim with any trait and looks.  Place the sim in any lot can afford in any neighborhood.  You can move the household at any time into any lot they can afford. The couple must have 10 children and the youngest male will become the heir.  Spares can be moved out but cannot be moved back into the house.  The spares can remain in the house if you want.  Heirs need to be in the bloodline.  Adoption are allowed but any child adopted is not eligible to become the heir for the next generation.

3. You must complete aspirations and careers for all sims that live in the house.  Do not repeat aspirations or careers until all careers and aspirations are completed.

4. All Holidays and birthdays must be celebrated.  Sims are encouraged to join or create clubs.

Let me introduce you to our family:

The Founder Krysta Messina

Her Aspiration is Big Happy Family and Her Traits as of right now are:

1. Loyal
2. Family Oriented
3. Childish
4. Domestic
5. Foodie

1. Loyal
2. Geek
3. Outgoing
4. Self Assured
5. Squeamish
6. Fast Learner

I decided to name the children in alphabetical order and the first baby is Anya who is now an infant.

Anya's infant traits are:

1. Cautious
2. Loves Sounds
3. Good Apetite
4. Loves Wake Up Time

Likes, Dislikes and Milestones for all Sims in the family will be posted on a Spreadsheet in Good Docs.

Sims 3 Photos-09-11-2024

 Hi Everyone!

Been busy the last couple of weeks playing sims but not enough time to blog.  So I decided to go through my Sims 3 Screenshot folder and post what I found in here.  I'm sure most of these photos are from my Ultimate Sim Challenge.  This is a very interesting challenge which focuses on all aspects of the game.  This is what attracts me to it.  Here is a link to the challenge.

The next festival picture will have the newest member of the family who is just born, a baby girl named Betty.

Until Next Time

What happened in my game up to July 27th 2024

 The past two weeks I played all three versions of the game. 

Sims 2

Played my Uber Hood and I am still in Veronaville.  I was with another branch of the Capp Family.  Albany and Goneril Capp and their 4 children, Miranda a teen, Hal starts off as a child but ages to a teen this round, Desdemona a child and Arielle who was a toddler at the beginning and now is a child.  Albany, a family sim, has a want and a fear of having another baby. Goneril is not rolling any wants for a baby so this family will not be having another baby soon. 

My first problem was finding them a house with enough room and something they could afford.  There is this one house that has a large courtyard.  I bought that for them and renovated it to fit the family.  Mom is the career woman while Albany is a stay at home Dad.  That will change due to the fact that Albany had a wish for a Toy Making Bench.  This man will be opening "The Capp-tivating Toy Store" 

Next round Miranda should be off to university, Desdemona should be a teen and hopefully Albany will start working on his Toy Store.

Sims 3

On my 365 Day Badge Challenge I did not get much work done on the challenge because the house needed some renovations.  I added a 3rd Floor because the family is growing and more rooms were needed.  I will post pictures of the new house as soon as it is finished.

On my Ultimate Sim, I'm still trying to get Marty out of the business career which hopefully is soon.  I think Madison is preggers so we may have a little werewolf or fairy around soon.  Its about time those two started a family.

Sims 4

Gotta love those Sims glitches.  Dirty Dishes floating in air!  Last time it was a floating baby.

This was Athena when she was an infant.

Anyway not much has been happening with this family except taking care of children and writing the books.  Things are progressing a bit but hopefully more after the children.  The calendar does show Athena will become a child in two days.  

The Drifter challenge is moving along, Darleen now has a tent, toilet, shower, sink, refrigerator and love interest Poala Rocca.  Hopefully the next time there will be a house and a marriage.  Possibly even a baby or at least one on the way.

What happened in My Sim Game up to July 13th 2024-An Infant, A Drifter and Monty not going to University

 

This week I played both the Sims 4 and the Sims 2.  I'll start with the Sims 4.  In the Master Simmer Challenge Bristol aged into an infant.  He is a sensitive infant just like his sister and Gassy.  His Sister was a happy spitter instead of gassy.  I already know this means he will be an angry awaker.  

Athena does get upset that her parents and Erica the Nanny shows attention to her sibling.  She already has most of her toddler milestone and all of her skills.  This weekend I'm going to try and have her make the first childhood friend milestone but not sure where I can find her find some toddlers in town.  I'm hoping a trip to the park will do the trick.

As for the parents London has her two excellent children books finished.  I actually finished more excellent books before this but I wasn't keeping track of them.  I decided she should start fresh.  She also has one of her motivational excellent books finished and a bestselling Romance Book titled "How to win a prince"

Duane has 7 out of his 20 friends.  Surprisingly the game is counting London, Athena and Bristol as friends.  For now I am keeping them but it does feel a bit cheaty to me.  He has 4 of the 20 Articles written and I am not having him write an article about London.  However, when he takes Athena to the park, I will have him interview people and look for some more friends.  He does have Mortimer Goth on his relationship and I would like him to write an article on Morty.

The Drifter Challenge Reboot

I decided to start another Drifter challenge because that challenge helps me build up my horrible building skills.  So I started with the sim I started with before in Diary of a Drifter and we will see what happens this time to Darleen Holden.  Will have Pictures next time around.

The Sims 2

Uberhood

In sims 2, I am playing a rotational Uberhood.  I never really enjoyed playing rotational but now I am starting to enjoy it.  I'm having trouble getting pictures out of sims 2 but I'm hoping to figure it out soon.

An uberhood mixes all the neighborhoods together.  Pleasantville is my main neighborhood and all the other are shopping districts and they make all one big neighborhood.  I started playing this way before blogging so I'll update you on Pleasantville when I get back there as I finished their round.  In Veronaville I did finish The Capp house but I am using ACR as a mod and Juliet called Romeo over for a booty call at the same time Hermia called over Puck Summerdream for a booty calls.  Both couples were fighting over Consorts bed while Consort was in his bathroom taking a bath.  Romeo and Juliet were the couple to get to woohoo.  I didn't know that ACR was set for teen pregnancy so I do hope she is not pregnant.  I didn't want to play the game with teen pregnancy but now that there is a mistake in settings I decided to go for it.  I still don't know how Consort didn't realize what was happening.

At the Monty house I didn't get much but something important did happen.  I thought the game was paused and I was away from the computer.  Mercutio aged up and didn't go to University as planned.  He even had the wish to go to university locked in.  I tried not saving and exiting but for some reason that didn't work.  I'm going to go with it.  His ltw is the sell 2000 harvestable and I think I'm going with it.  I might even have Mercutio open a grocery store.  I will have to get him married so gonna see who is available.  Hermia is more into Puck Summerdream but we will see what develops.

I did finish the Summerdream house.  Bottom aged into a teen.  I need to get a picture of her next time around I hope. By the time their round comes up again I should have this picture thing worked out.  

I do have a mod in the game which gives me Random Occurance Scenario's  This mod comes up with little situations that pop up and your sims need to do.  Some are good and some are bad.  The Blind Date scenario Popped up for Puck which means he must go on 4 blind dates through the Matchmaker in a row.  He did 2 of them.  The first girl the matchmaker sent him was Violet Jocque from Desiderata Valley and the second was Nicole Thompson who is a MPC.  We will see who the next two are.

That is all the news from my sim game for now.  See ya next time!

What is happening in my Sim Game July 4, 2024

I haven't kept up with this blog for a while but I'm going to try and journal what has been happening in my sim game.  I'm playing all three versions of the sims and I do have current challenges that I am playing.  These will not be stories, but they are a journal and picture album for me.  I just want a way to document the events in my sim game. 

I never stopped playing Sims 3 in this time but I didn't play as much during my downtime from Blogging.  During this time period I regained my love of Sims 2 and the Infant update is what brought me back to Sims 4. 

The sims above are Duane and London Solis, who are the founders of my Master Simmer challenge.  I do have a spreadsheet that I am keeping track of the challenge which I will share here at a future date.  I found out about this challenge during a live stream by GBabyChallenger (XStarSimmerX on YouTube)  She created the founding sims during a live stream and uploaded them to the gallery.  We are comparing the children and so far the first babies in our game are identical.  We also have a naming theme because of London, all the babies born into the family are named for cities, states, places or countries.  We are also going alphabetically.

In the picture above London is telling Duane that they are expecting their Second Child.

This is their first chile Athena (Athens).  She is a very happy child who loves to dance and she is always going over to sing to her parents or the Nanny.

This is their Second Child Bristol, (city in London and Connecticut)

Now that I introduced the whole family, I will get into more details as time goes by.  The next time we see them Bristol should be an infant.

Happy Simming!

The Running Sim-A Toadified Finale

The next town that our cyber criminal will visit is........

Riverview!

Meet Airabela Velazquez and this is her finale identity.  I know we still haven't visited Monte Vista, Midnight Hallow, Legacy Island 3, Moonlight Falls, Roaring Height, and Hidden Springs (Isla Paridiso shouldn't have been on the above list we went there) and we are not going to.  I didn't expect it to end this way but I do have to say the ending is funny.

The first thing Airabela wanted to do was make an invigorating potion so she bought wolfbane at the elixir consignment store and started making the potion but she failed and I had no idea that the alchemy station could turn her into this:

I always seem to be learning new things about this game and today I learned a couple of new things like this:

They can eat flies in toad form and it fills their hunger bar.  Oh well I went with it!  Free Food!

I needed to find red valerian and mandrake to make a cure elixir and I couldn't get the mandrake in time and the elixir shop didn't have cure elixir in stock.  On day 3 she was spiked and I couldn't get the potion and I couldn't save her to the bin during the 4 hour time limit for running.

That means:

The Running Sim-Back to Reality

Which town will our cyber thief visit next:

Isla Paradiso!  There are only 10 towns left at this point I forgot to remove Dragon Valley from the list.  I guess we had such a good run there I wanted to visit again but sadly that is against the rules.

ok Time to see what wacky outfit she can where this time:

How is this for wacky.  I'm actually breaking the rules with these outfits as she is supposed to be dressed to blend in with the population.  The problem is I never have an excuse to wear these crazy clothes that I spent so much money on and they really don't effect the amount of money she makes hacking so no harm done.  Ok lets see how she has done.
