Sona now has the ability to howl without being a werewolf
You are doing great, completing all the aspirations so quickly. Is it normal to still be able to howl after being cured from lycanthropy? I at least did not expect that.
Well done @kusurusu . I seriously need to catch up and make a new chart with all the new aspirations, but I am stuck in another 100 baby challenge right now LOL
I am still on this challenge, working my way through at a very slow yet enjoyable pace. But I started off with your shart so I have the aspirations icons added if you want to.
(I added the new ones but also changed the icon from one of the star wars aspirations to remove the star)
Here is also my progress, still a lot of work. I was about to start the strangerville aspirations when werewolves was announced so I think I will tackle werewolves after I am done with strangerville.

"Sims with a Lunar Link retain the special benefits of the Lunar Cycle they once felt as Werewolves, and can still Howl just like old times!" - Lunar Link trait (aka Cure Seeker aspiration reward) description
In my chart, most aspirations would be in the finished category, with Villanious Valentine on hiatus (due to a bug) and Positivity Challenge in the to-do section (if at all - object rewards don't appear in bb anymore).
So it is a reward for finishing the cure seeker aspiration cc? Good to know. That means not all cured werewolves have this trait.
Is the villainous valentine still open because of the bug with the reward trait from the serial romantic aspiration? I was planning to temporarily remove that reward trait with a cheat code so I can complete that aspiration.

Exactly. Apparently, the gurus are already aware of the issue but still unable to reproduce it, despite my explanations considering the cause.
@Atreya33 Thanks so much for sharing your aspirations icons. Once I am done with my baby challenge, then I will grab my supersim Nadia from my gallery and let her keep on completing all the new ones and your icons will help me stacks Way to go on how far you are with your aspirations as well
@kusurusu you and Sona did amazing, she is such a cool sim
@mcrudd I went to pull out my Nathan and put him in a new save to try some of the new aspirations and to my surprise, he no longer shows that he has his 3 university degrees - the aspiration is done but the degrees do not show in the panel or when he tries to take the job again. I don't know where the original save is so I either have to cheat that back in or re-do the challenge. I am not thrilled but learned my lesson to NEVER forget to clearly label my saves.

How can they not reproduce this issue? It' s pretty straightforward - unless that's just the stock answer for 'we don't know how to fix that'...!

Oh no, I hope when I pull Nadia out I won't have the same issue. Lets just hope hey Only on baby number 20, so a way to go before I find out LOL

I have been away from the forums for a while - my mom died and I just haven't felt like doing much of anything so I have not kept up with the baby thread - I know you had to restart at one point with your first sim, did you have to restart again? I was thinking you were almost to the end on that one.

I am so sorry to hear about your mom I did complete that one. Got my 100 babies.
Too funny - I am just reading that and saw that you finished - very impressive - thank you about my mom - it has devastated me but just trying to get back to something resembling normal - I like your new challenge with the same parents - I like the relaxed pace of that as well

Losing a parent is very hard, my husband lost his dad in December, it hit him real hard because just a few months before he lost his mom too. Its hard and you just have to look after yourself. He realized that, he wanted to try and be strong for us all, but he had to look out for himself, take time out, do things that makes you feel better, if its to sleep all day, nothing wrong with that, if its to go for a walk that is good too, you will know what works for you. It is different for each person, no one death in a family can be related too. I wish you all the best and give you all my strength I have, and some gentle hugs
Yeah I am slightly potty redoing it aint I LOL But I am enjoying this one, I am a family person and it went against everything I believe in to play it the way I had too previously.

Sorry to hear about your mum.
@mcrudd I can't believe you started over with the 100 baby challenge that is amazing and difficult to understand at the same time. I hope you have fun with doing it a second time.

Hahahha call me crazy I just wanted to play it and actually enjoy it, the family way is for me, and its so nice, Dad makes money painting and help children with homework and school projects while mom looks after the newborn and skills up the toddler. Its more relaxed and I changed the rules to make it easier.

The whole purpose of a challenge in the sims 4 is to enjoy yourself. It's great if you can tweak the challenge and make it suit your playstyle. If I were to ever do this then I think I would also prefer having the same dad for all kids. Who knows, perhaps I will one day do a 10 baby challenge. (and no that number is not a typo ) let's just say I consider challenges as an inspiration to play rather than set rules I can't change. I never cared about scoring for a scenario anyway.

Hehehehe I just had to giggle for 10. You should be able to do that in no time at all I can make you a special outfit for your 10 baby record, like I did for the 100 baby goal I reached

10 babies? 100? I have one toddler and a second at the same time would be impossible to handle. I can barely stay on top of the one and have her meet her needs and pack obligations.😳
Wait, correction, I do have two. I forgot to count my sims hubby. You have my respect if you can handle more than that.😁
I have a question regarding the aspiration challenge.
I finally managed to complete the university aspiration. It wasn't overly difficult but rather timeconsuming (4 ingame weeks).
Now I am doing the Extreme Sports Enthusiast aspiration from snowy escape and want my sims to climb the mountian. But I am wondering if I should go the fast route and have my sim teleport to the top or the slow route by actually climbing her way up. Both Callisto and her boyfriend have unlocked teleportation. Callisto can choose between the magical transportalate and the wellness teleportation. Her boyfriend can either tunnel up there as a werewolf of use the wellness skill teleportation. Would any form of teleportation be cheating?
@Atreya33 I think if she earned the teleportation then its not cheating, since its a function without a cheat code
You are doing so well, happy simming
I didn't realise it has already been more than a month since I asked this question. But my game slowed down when I played through winterfest with more detail than usually because it was winterfest Christmas in real life.
My sims actually made it to the top of Mt Komorebi twice. The first time to fulfill the third tier goal of the aspiration and the second time to make my completion picture for the aspiration. Both times they climbed legitimately, no cheating. If I am through all the trouble of the climb, I wand to do it properly
(more pictures about the climb here, I really enjoyed taking all the screenshots)
Between graduation and Mt Komorebi she also finished the city living aspiration and the musical genius
Now on to aspiration 34. That will be either World-Famous Celebrity or Master Actress. I will be working toward both of them at the same time.
I'd like to propose a new twist on this challenge: the Legacy Aspiration Challenge
Basically, you have to complete all aspirations, but it's a multi-generational family affair, rather than one sim.
You start with a founder and you assign them the Grilled Cheese aspiration. You have to have aging on, although it's okay if you set it to long. Going forward, whenever someone teenaged or older joins the household, they have to be assigned the next aspiration on the list. If a child is born/adopted/stepped into the household, they are assigned the next aspiration on the list when they age up to a teen. If a sim has completed one aspiration you have a choice between assigning them the next aspiration on the list or exiting them from the aspiration rotation. Think carefully. If a sim dies while they are trying to complete their second or later aspiration, their aspiration becomes the next in the rotation and has to be started from the beginning by the next person to be assigned an aspiration.
-No, my almost-elderly mother, I don't think it's a good time for you to try for a baby.
-Yes, person I barely know, you have my blessing to hang out with Johnny Zest.
-No person with the mean, hot-headed and self-absorbed traits, I don't think you should get married.

@Eleri This sounds like a fun idea. I think it is a nice version for those who prefer to have aging on. I currently have aging off to complete them with my sim. So she is essentially a supersim and I intend to finish all aspirations with her. I suppose I could turn aging back on. My sim earned enough aspiration points for years worth of youth potions.
Perhaps if I ever feel like doing all aspirations again I might do it your way with a legacy aspiration challenge. But to be honest I like working on two or three aspirations at the same time. I don't know how that could be combined with using multiple sims. For example the city living aspiration means sometimes waiting for a certain festival to be begin. This was perfect to combine with university which took me 4 weeks anyway (4 terms with 3 courses). And the music aspiration was just a bit in between to keep my sim busy with a hobby.
So how many of you guys are gonna restart this challenge after Growing Together comes out? I already restarted after High School years, in order to complete all the teen-specific aspirations. I'm thinking I wanna go back and also complete all the new Child aspirations that were announced to have a true super sim.

But started a new one now that is family orientated, more my gameplay style, I also made the aging up rules much more easier
