A Brief Update – Sims 4 City Living & The Legacy Challenge

Hey everyone!

I know I have been pretty quiet in regards to site updates lately, but real life has yet again gotten in the way.

I just wanted to give you guys a brief update on where we stand with Sims 4: City Living. We are in the process of updating the Random Trait Generator right now, though I am not sure how long it will take to get the new traits/aspiration in. We will NOT be making a 2nd random trait generator for the house traits. You can choose those as you wish for your Legacy families. Continue reading →

Pinstar’s Official Ruling on the Wishing Well

09-02-16_8-44-26 AM

Hello everyone! I just wanted to quickly post about Pinstar’s official ruling on the Wishing Well that is added to the Sims 4 with the purchase of the Romantic Garden pack. I know a lot of you have been asking about this and we finally got a chance to sit down and decide what to do with it.

Pinstar recently Tweeted that the Wishing Well can be used once per Sim in their lifetime. So each Sim in your family can use it once and ONLY once in their lifetime. Make sure to make that wish count!

I will update the rules momentarily!

If you have any questions about this ruling, feel free to comment below or on our Discord server.

The Sims 4 Triple Boost Week & Our Challenges

TS4_823_AUGUST_DOUBLE_XP_01_003

While doing my daily browse of SimsVIP, I learned about the new free, optional event that launched today for The Sims 4. This event is called “The Sims 4 Triple Boost Week” and what it does is allow your Sims to gain skills or job progress three times quicker than normal for seven in-game days (you can’t have both at the same time) after talking with a Sims named Jasmine Holiday (either by phone or in person). This can be done as many times as you wish between the dates of August 22 and August 29, 2016.

So what does this mean for the Legacy Challenge, Wonder Child Challenge, Immigrant Challenge, and Apocalypse Challenge? Well, it will affect each challenge a bit differently. (Bear in mind the Boosts are OPTIONAL. If you don’t want to use them in your challenge, you don’t have to. I personally will not be using them at all because it feels a bit too much like a cheat to me.)

Creators List – 8/1/2016

It’s baaaaack!

Hey everyone! Sorry for not getting one of these lists up in SO long, but as you know, the move took a lot out of me and it is taking a while to get back into the swing of things.

I decided to lump Let’s Plays and Stories into one list and just call it a “Creators List” since I am highlight the works of various Legacy, Wonderchild, Apocalypse, Block Party etc Simmers. I have also decided that this list will not be updated weekly at the moment as I don’t have time to do so. It will most likely be released monthly for now.

As always, there is a very good chance that I have missed people while making this list (in fact, I probably missed A LOT of you this time around as I’m just getting back into the swing of things… sorry in advance). If you don’t see your name on there, please let me know in the comments below and I will add you!

Random Trait Generator Updated for Latest Patch

Hey everyone! Pinstar and I are getting settled into the new house so expect to see more frequent posts from us in the next week or so!
I just wanted to let you know that the Random Trait Generator has been updated for the latest patch and now includes the “Kleptomaniac” trait. The Grilled Cheese aspiration is NOT on the generator as it requires certain criteria to be met in order to be activated.

An conflict issue between Goofball and Snob has also been corrected so those two traits should not appear together anymore.

If you guys find any further conflicts, please let us know!

Let’s Play List – 1/8/2016

Well hi everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these lists. As you know, our move to a new state is quickly approaching which means that these posts will be fewer and farther between until we are all settled in.

Since it’s been a month since I’ve done a Stories & Let’s Play list, I will split the list in two (Stories in one, LPs in another) and each list will list stories and LPs from the entire month rather than the last week.

Given how insanely busy I am with real life right now, there is an excellent chance that I have missed someone in these lists. If I have, please don’t hesitate to let me know in the comments below!

Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Rules Tweak (and a RL update!)

Hi everyone! Pinstar and I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season.

I just wanted to let you all know that we added a rule tweak in regards to Legacy lots. The gameplay rules state that a family cannot move from the lot you move the founder onto and must live on that lot for the duration of the 10 generations. However, with the addition of the 64 x 64 lots in Windenburg in Sims 4 Get Together, we decided that you are allowed to move an already established Legacy family from a 50 x 50 lot onto one of the new 64 x 64 lots ONCE during the challenge. Once they move to the 64 x 64 lot, they are not allowed to move again. The FAQ and Gameplay Rules sections have both been updated to reflect this tweak.

Finally, I also wanted to give you all a brief update on real-life stuff. As some of you know, we are in the process of moving. Well we finally have a house and will be closing on it in mid-February. That’s less than two months away at this point! EEK! Given how busy we will be with the move, there will be less activity on the Legacy Challenge website. I will still try to post the Stories and Let’s Play Lists when I can, but expect their frequency to be decreased for now. Once we are moved and settled in (hopefully by the end of February), I will be getting back to weekly and possibly twice per week posts here 🙂

Have a great New Year everyone! Happy Simming!

Legacy Challenge Rules Updated for Get Together

Legacy Challenge Rules Updated for Get Together

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to let you know that the Legacy Challenge Rules have been updated for The Sims 4 Get Together. Here is a highlight of what the changes are and where to find them:

  • In the Getting Started section we have added in the optional Extreme Start
  • In the Scoring Section we have added the following changes:
    • The Nature Collection still maxes out at 13 completed collections even though there are now 16 possibilities. You now get to choose what 13 you wish to complete.
    • For the 10th Popularity point you now have the option of earning this by earning all possible Club Perks for your Legacy Club instead of earning a gold medal in all of the different party categories.
  • Legacy Clubs are completely optional and can be created at any time during the challenge. They have the benefit that if you choose to, you can use the Legacy Club Perks collection to finish up the Popularity category without getting a gold medal at the parties.
  • The New Extreme Start Handicap has been added to the Scoring section.

The Random Trait Generators have not yet been updated to include the new aspiration and two new traits, but should be updated soon!

Want to see how we came up with these new rules? Check out my Preview & Playtesting series on my Youtube channel!

Finally… we have a surprise for you guys! You’re going to want to check out the website around 10 am EST tomorrow to see what it is!
