    This looks incredibly fun! I just have a few questions.

    Gen 2: Do you have to go on five dates with -five- different people, or just more than one person?
    Gen 7: I'm assuming we should ignore this for The Sims 4, since there isn't a fame thing, or should we find a way to "pretend"? IE, getting lots of friends, etc?

    Thanks, and I can't wait to test this out!

    This looks super fun! Im going to start right now, lol.. I will post pictures and updates here!
  • DaniiPantiiesDaniiPantiies Posts: 62 Member
    For Generation 2, I think just more than 1 person. So if you do 3 dates with 1 Sim, and 1 date with 2 other Sims, that's 5 dates.

    Generation 7, I left it in as having a lot of money and a lot of Sims knowing you. And hoping they integrate some sort of "fame" back into the game.

    Thanks so much for asking clarification. :)

    Anyway, except no cheating. I did this challenge in the Sims 3 and download the Deathnote mod to kill my Sims.

    Thank you so much! I actually finished all ten gens in TS3 because this was my favorite challenge. I was actually considering rewriting it for four, but I guess you beat me to it.

    I am currently doing this challenge! But my founder had triplets on her first time around, is there any issue with that since the rules specify they only have two?
  • DaniiPantiiesDaniiPantiies Posts: 62 Member
    No issue because they are triplets. Just no more kids. :)

    I have a question about this challenge: can you use cheats? Eg. Money cheats, etc.
  • DaniiPantiiesDaniiPantiies Posts: 62 Member
    I recommend no cheats to stay with the story. But at times I feel like cheats are necessary for the story, (like "living in a good home" or something). For generation 1, I believe I "took out a mortgage" to get into the new home just because earning money does take a long time.

    Long story short, it is not strict on a no cheat rule, but to have fun with this challenge I suggest not using cheats. :)

    How do you write romance novels? Sorry, I was looking at one of m y old sims that's a level 10 in writing and I looked to see what genre books you can write, romance isn't there...

    Your sim has to be in a flirty mood.
