-You are free to evict and/or delete any Sims except The Heir from House 023
All other worlds and vacation destinations may be built upon or populated however you'd like
*Adding in unique Lot types from other packs is encouraged

GAME SET UP FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN PLAYING JUST HOUSE 024

-Demolish the Affluista Mansion Lot

MAKING THE DRIFTER
Create one Sim who is a:
-Young Adult
*Using Story Mode for creating The Drifter is not allowed
*If you download a Sim, you will need to make sure that they do not have any Skills or extra Traits gained as this could give unwanted advantages




REQUIRED GAME SETTINGS
Under Gameplay tab in the Game Options menu select the following:
-Autonomy - Full
-Auto Age (Played Sims) - Yes
-Sim Lifespan - Long
As an added level of challenge difficulty, this can be played on a Normal Sim Lifespan

WHERE TO START AND LAST MINUTE PREPARATIONS
-In Game Options set Season length as as well as rain/snow options (Seasons needed)
-In Game Options you may choose to opt out of Fame (Get Famous needed)
-Move The Drifter onto the Affluista Mansion Residential Lot in Oasis Springs

*If you choose to keep any items, you must deduct the cost of the object(s) from the Active Household Funds before ANY other object(s) are allowed to be purchased
-Drop the Active Household Funds to $0 Simoleons (testingcheats on + Money 0)
-Save your game
-Make a backup save (start of House 024)
*I highly recommend that you make these separate game save files so that if you are unsatisfied with how things turn out or you experience a House Challenge fail, you will have the option to redo House 024 without losing all prior world progress

THE PLAYABLE SIMS THIS HOUSE CHALLENGE ARE:
-All Sims in the Active Household

REQUIRED GOALS OF HOUSE 024
1. Create your dream home or just be creative!

2. Complete the Successful Lineage Aspiration

3. Produce and raise The Heir to the Young Adult life stage

Give yourself a HUGE pat on the back and spread the word...you should be proud!

    Oh fiddle! So close but not close enough. House fail for me. Got almost to the end but my teen didn't max out his career before aging up to YA. So we're trying again. :)
  • RawlaRawla Posts: 7,495 Member
    Sooo close. You can do it this time! :)
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @Rawla Thanks
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    My teen topped her career and all other goals were complete and I thought ... yay house finished but the aspiration wasn't showing as done so then I read it again and I realised it says the child/grandchild has to top the career - meaning when she's an adult. So we go on. Just hope I can do this whilst her dad's still alive, lol.
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    And we have another fail. It would probably have helped if I'd read the aspiration properly so that I could make sure the heir picked a good career to top before her dad died! Next! lol
  • RawlaRawla Posts: 7,495 Member
    Keep trying. You can do it! <3
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @rawla Thanks. Yep, back to the grindstone. Am determined not to fall at the last hurdle, lol.

    @Karise I'm so sorry that this attempt didn't work out but I am sure the next one will. Sending a lot of positive energy your way.

    @Karise, are you still playing or did you finish it?
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @IllusoryThrall I'm on semi sabbatical. :smiley: I'm trying out a couple of other challenges but have this in my rotation so will finish it at some point, lol. I think I got a little burnt out. :smiley:
  • illusieillusie Posts: 13,816 Member
    lol wrong username @karise :D A break is nice, you deserve it. Good luck with the other challenges! Which ones are you doing?
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @illusie Oops, haha. No doubt I confused illusoryThrall. I'm doing 100 baby; rosebud and a teen one so I've got my hands full! :smile: But I'm not rushing any of them.
  • illusieillusie Posts: 13,816 Member
    lol :D
    You sure have many challenges going on. The rosebud challenge is new to me. Sounds hard, but fun. Good luck with all of them!
  • IllusoryThrallIllusoryThrall Posts: 1,335 Member
    @Karise I wasn't too confused, I figured you just linked the wrong one. :wink: And, you sound like me on the challenges. I have four, technically five that I'm working on.. my townie project, master simmer challenge, my ISBI, my drifters, and a settlers challenge I keep picking up occasionally to play - it's just hard to blog that one because each full generation is one post, and that's a LOT of playtime in between posts. Then I let myself read some challenges, and found one I can't seem to stop leaning towards.. so I may very well be adding another challenge to the list. I play them in a round robin for the most part, it helps to keep me excited for the next time I play that family, and keeps me from getting too bored of a single household. It's hard to wait, sometimes, though.. which is why my drifters just got three chapters in a row. :grin: What teen challenge are you doing? .. and a 100 baby?! That's one I've never even thought of attempting. I'm not sure my sanity would survive.. if I have any of that left... hehe.
  • KariseKarise Posts: 1,198 Member
    @illusie Thanks

    @IllusoryThrall I'm playing them round robin too to keep myself interested. I've tried the 100 baby a few times and got so far then something's happened (usually a pc crash) and not got any further so I'm determined to get to the end, lol. The teen one is from boolprop - the 13th birthday; immortal teenager. It's quite fun and has a definite end in sight. I keep thinking about an ISBI as I'll have some experience of NTHs due to the drifters but I'll wait until I've done some of these other challenges first, lol.

    @karise @IllusoryThrall, I don't know how you do it. I have my hands full with your 1 challenge
