    @Glimmer50 Lovely chapter. How happy they are.

    Thank you Karise. They are a happy couple. =)

    @Thymeless Welcome to the Drifters. :smile: Looks like things are going great for Ivy - congrats on the nooboo.

    @Karise Thank you! :D I was worried she wouldn't be able to find someone and have a child in time for her to raise the little one to Young Adult, but I think it was managed :)

    Yeah I am finding that I might have miscalculated how long it takes to raise a child. I just hope my main Sim doesn't die off before the kids are old enough to take care of themselves. I have had to expand the house because ooops. Anyway, I may have to find a caretaker or something LOL. I know we can't control another Sim but hopefully someone would just take care of the kids automatically. Maybe hire a Nanny? I don't know.

    I need to catch my blog up. Maybe this weekend I will get a chance to do that. Seems like since I no longer work I don't have the time I thought I would have. Crazy.

    @Vihisha Oh and are we allowed to put this new bowling alley in our game and go there if we have 1000 bucks? If so, where can we put it? I will look on the main page and see if you say anything about it. I know you are so busy. I hope you are finally getting some play time in.

    I take issue with how the gender preference of the main sim implies has to be just one gender. What about bisexuality? It's bi erasure.

    @DaB1gV I think it's talking about the gender settings in CAS, not sexuality. I mean, as adoption isn't allowed but an heir needs to be made, I kinda figured all the main sims needed to be in straight relationships (which kinda s.ucks because I'm gay but it makes sense in the challenge).

    @Thymeless I really like Ivy. She keeps on smiling. I bet she is fun to play with!

    @Glimmer50 congrats on the nooboo!

    @dab1gv, have you got the mod MC commander center? I'm not 100% sure, but I think you can use it to change the preference.

    @thymeless, if you use mods I'm sure you can get babies even if you have the same gender sims. So if you want to play with a gay couple, than you should look into MC command center.
  • ThymelessThymeless Posts: 1,184 Member
    @illusie I'll have to try that at some point :) I have MC Command, but I've never used it for that. And I LOVE Ivy :) She's such a mischievous little thing :) I'm thinking that with her son I'll pick the child and young adult traits, but randomise the teen trait to make things a little more unpredictable! Who knows what sort of sim Silver will end up being - I'm looking forward to finding out!

    @DaB1gV @Thymeless You can also change the preference in CAS in the custom gender settings. These are the three little dots under the male/female signs. It's a drop down menu and there you can set it to "become pregnant" or "get others pregnant" so in a same sex relationship your male sim can become pregnant or your female sim can get her partner pregnant.
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @Glimmer50 Congrats on the upcoming addition to the family.
  • DaB1gVDaB1gV Posts: 684 Member
    @illusie I've got the mod but the mod doesn't allow to set no preference, and doesn't accomodate for bi people such as myself.
  • illusieillusie Posts: 13,819 Member
    That is a shame, but I know it does allow same sex marriages for non played families. So atleast you will see some gay couples in your game.

    @illusie unrelated, but I love your avatar!

    Thank you!! I have been using it for a long time, and thought about changing it but I like how it is now.

    @Thymeless Congrats on the marriage and Silver becoming a toddler.
  • ThymelessThymeless Posts: 1,184 Member
    @Karise Thank you! I have no idea what I'm doing because I haven't actually had a chance to play with toddlers before, so I'm learning along with Ivy and Kengo :)

    Me either. I am still waiting for the rug rat to turn into a toddler. Will be my first time playing one since Sims 3. We will see how that goes LOL.

    I do not have this Stuff Pack...so I'm not 100% how the new venue comes into play...I'm under the impression that it can b added 2 Bars & Dance
    Clubs or something...so I'm assuming that when those venues r added 2 the challenge..that u could put in an alley?! IS it a separately labeled venue?!

    I'm sry either of u feel offended in any way...I have left the option 4 u 2 specify "gender preference" @ the beginning of each Drifter Challenge. How u choose 2 play is TOTALLY up 2 u! =)

    @Vihisha I wasn't offended at all! :smiley: I was trying to reassure @DaB1gV that it wasn't meant as bi-erasure :) Unfortunately, I was half asleep when I wrote it, so looking back on what I wrote it's a little bit of a mess =p

    @Vihisha It's all good :) Besides, this challenge is so much fun! I'm really hoping I won't fail on the first house, but we'll have to see =p
