Happy Christmas, all!
- in the Symphonic (Music)Restriction, it states that a sim cannot use the mirror to "check self out" or "gussy up". i was wondering if my Snob sim can still 'admire self' as this gives him a positive moodlet, or is this against the rules?
- also in compliance with the Culinary restriction, I have been preparing a group meal (for a single sim) and putting the leftovers in the fridge for later and for later days. Is this allowed?
Your advice is appreciated as I would like to complete the challenge fairly,

Cooking a meal and storing it in the fridge is perfectly within the rules. You can have as much food in the fridge as you like, as long as you only cook one meal a day.

As for CAW I think it should be an optional rule; I'm finding the tool difficult to use and I imagine so will many others. It'd look great though.
I had made backups but my game had gotten so messed up and I had ended up uninstalling a few times. And instead of "copying" the original backup into the folders, my laptop cuts/pastes when you drag and drop apparently. My work computer makes copies when you do this and I always forget. So when I went to uninstall and reinstall for the final time, I had to remake the backup files. And in doing so, I lost my challenge because my new "backup" had been played and saved under the newest patch.
I AM SO ****** OFF! haha I had unlocked nearly half of the restrictions!! I just don't know if I have it in me to start over. I suppose if they patch the patch and that works for me, I might be able to pick it back up again then?
Ugh.
I may just change locations for the community lots and some residential and just blame the relocations on 'rebuilding'.
-ponders-
Wicked go into a Sunset Valley save that you have and in edit town click on the community lot with the store/theatre/bookstore and bin it. Then in CAW put that bin lot inside the new desert Sunset Valley. Or make it then in game place the lot where it should be.

No vegetable/fruit cooking or eating. Ever. No harvesting, no cooking and certainly no eating. There is no plant life in this challenge. It's just a deadened desert.
Hopefully that clears things up a bit.

Someone tell me cause im really confused. :?:
Chocolateaddic100,
The politics restriction on the first page states:
"Sims may extend the house underground within the 8x8 area. "
So I'd assume basements are allowed. Just keep in mind the 'ground level' can't have walls only fences and your stairs leading up/down have to be within the 8x8 area.
As far as travelling goes, I'd say you can't travel till you have military lifted at the very least. The only reason I say that is if you can't travel outside of your lot around town then you can't travel out of town to the airport. That doesn't tie in to well with your sims owning a car though. Still, travelling should be very difficult to accomplish if at all in my opinion. When your sim goes away they have access to so much and on top of that they don't age. May make the challenge far too easy.
Just my thoughts... I'd wait for a definative ruling from Ashleigh or one of the more knowlegable regulars of the thread.
Basements are still allowed with WA, as long as the basement doesn't exceed the 8x8 area until you lift the Politics restriction. It also cannot have any walls on the ground level, though fences and gates are okay to have.
Travelling cannot happen until you lift both the Journalism and Military restrictions. Military forbids leaving your lot for anything other than work or school, or to visit friends/lovers IF you have a car. Journalism forbids you from missing work unless you're pregnant in which case you don't receive maternity leave pay. Going away to different countries breaks both those restrictions.
As for special WA objects that aren't merely clutter objects, like tomb holes and whatnot, I'm going to say those aren't allowed for now, just because I don't know what kind of advantage those items might give a player. That may change once I can play the game for myself and see, though.
Happy Simming!

I havwe found a cool possible world if only the world creator wasn't so buggy. I am having to much difficulty getting the CaW to upload the world into the game or even edit in game. Hoping the bug free version of CaW comes out soon. They need to update the game again I think this last update really messed up my game.

Yes if I ever get around to starting it.
I have another legacy on the go as well as this, and I'll probably spend some time getting to grips with CAW after I finish the Lazaruses. I'll take on another challenge of some sort but not just yet, as I want to learn the new tool.
Update 4.1 should be here tonight or tomorrow, but then I'm away so it'll probably be the middle of next week before 4.2.
