    Violins are portable so using them is okay.

    SimHead82 - You can buy items in buy mode before you finish your first collection, as long as they are portable. Like Sketch793 said, the violins can be put in your inventory, so you can use them. You can purchase them as well, even if you don't find them while fishing.

    Also, my sims had their first baby when they still hadn't completed a collection. Yes, the bassinet sat outside of the tent. If the baby cries while both parents are asleep in the tent, they both wake up and can't sleep until the baby quiets down.

    This one seems super hard, but I like a good challenge. I am currently doing 2 other legacy challenges so when I finish one of those I am gonna try this one! Thanks for the great idea VanillaChai :)

    I'm having a lot of fun with it so far. Let me know what you think if you do try it.

    this challenge seems great! i might have to get my hands on this one. one question though: if we can only buy portable items at first, do we just have to let our sims pee themselves? not all neighbourhoods have public bathrooms around and my loading screens are pretty long so honestly, i refuse to travel every time someone has to use the bathroom.

    The lot by the goths house has a restroom. I'm about to start and that's the lot I picked.

    As @Rainydayz179‌ said, there are some lots with restrooms nearby. If you have issues with loading screen times and you've already moved into a lot that had no restrooms nearby, you can still move to another lot. I made the mistake myself of choosing a lot that had no restrooms. My sims were rarely there, though, because they were camped out in other lots, parks, etc. to collect as much as possible until they got their first completed collection. So, it is still do-able ... But my pregnant sim peed herself a few times. Poor gal.

    At first I was like omg I can't do this! All their needs were red and they had no simoleans. It got easier once I got a tent so they could sleep.
  • VanillaChaiVanillaChai Posts: 177 Member
    Yeah... That tent is a lifesaver!

    This sounds like an awesome challenge, and sounds, well, challenging! I have yet to by Outdoor Retreat, but this has me really wanting to. Once I manage to get the pack I'll be sure to try out this challenge! Awesome idea!

    Outdoor Retreat is a great addition to the game. You can still do this challenge without it, but it would be much more difficult without any portable items. You could do it, but you'd be essentially homeless until you finish one collection... and would have to sleep on benches for a while. Either way, if you decide to try it, I'd love to hear your feedback.

    Yay! I can't wait to get in game and count my plants. I looked up guides online to see where to find stuff and all some of them say is seed packets. It's very frustrating.

    All of the sudden my sims won't sleep in the tents. They go in there to sleep and then just come right back out. All 4 of them are doing it. Anybody else have this problem?

    If it's the small tent, I think it only fits 2 Sims. You may have to get the larger tent, or air mattresses.

    I ended up getting air mattresses. I have no idea why they wouldn't sleep. They all kept trying to go to the park bench nearby and sleep.
