Thanks both of you! The main spreadsheet works just fine - have all the way through deal 977 near the end of June. No need to make a new one for me, I can just use the basic spreadsheet (made a copy of it so I can edit the copy without touching the main sheet at all) and hide the timezones I don't need. Now time to start…
:grey_question: Just a quick question - when will the spreadsheet be updated with the 38th rotation fully listed? Right now, the one I'm looking at ends 6 Apr 23 at 11:45pm. :grey_question:
At some point, I might reinstall TS4 - I do miss the build system in the game - but for now, I'm having a blast with TS3. Last night (or early this morning depending on how you want to look at it), I picked up one of the venues I was missing: The Serenity Retreat, and next month I'll pick up Sunlit Tides - with the total…
Recently reinstalled TS3 after playing TS4 for years and getting tired of the bugs and the lacking gameplay. So happy to see this DD thread still going. I've got a few things to pick up in order to be a member of the OTS club :wink: and am thankful to those who've kept the spreadsheet and this thread up to date so I can…
So, move Candy and Yuki out and move DJ Candy and Niko in? That could be kinda fun. Make the house a party house, and then put together a DJ Club for Candy on the island. Thanks for the idea!
Started this challenge at the beginning of the month. Gino lives in San Myshuno, is married, and has two kids - Candy and her younger brother Niko. It says on the MySims wiki that Candy lives on an island. I'd already decided that each heir has the potential to move if it suits their story, so with that in mind, should I…
I'm almost there! I've started bulldozing lots, since my Vault Dwellers are finally reaching the point of being able to leave the Vault. I've got a question up on the FB group for which of the four young women becomes the Chosen One to move to Murkland :smile: Once she's chosen, I'll be able to send her on her journey to…
@SimGuruConor Q1: Crosspack play - Yes! Clubs, etc - Double yes! But not Fame, and here's why: Famous knitters and other well-known non-knitting people in the fiber universe are really niche, as in you only know who they are if you're part of that 'verse. If you're active in the fiber world, and go to an event (like…
It's too bad Wendalyn doesn't have a statue of her own, but I still think she should totally be her own generation. Perhaps any future characters without statues can be incorporated as a "play if you want to, but they don't have to count towards the legacy/challenge.
@Snowie - I love the idea of every other generation moving to the new era. It gives us more time to use all the CC we hunted down :smiley: Also, the rounding up to ten eras sound like a great idea! Only if it doesn't bring a huge headache for you, though. :)
Thanks for the heads up, @Bonxie! I've got a new story/gameplay (not related to the new pack) in mind that I may work on instead while waiting for all the mods to be updated.
Ack! Never announced that I'd started my play. :smiley: I'm putting most of the pictures behind the spoiler tag so it doesn't make this post impossibly long. Here's my Astronaut: Rigel Chilmead Aspiration: Nerd Brain; Traits: Loves Outdoors, Gloomy, Genius, and Quick Learner (bonus trait). Rigel's days have been busy, but…
Hi @PixelChampion - another question. Obviously Earth sister is allowed to swim, but are the other sisters allowed to? Obviously, swim laps is out, but can they just get in the pool and swim, or is that a no, since it could potentially build fitness?
@MysticLegacy or @Pinstar1161 - I've asked this over on the website also, but don't know which you'll get notice of first - for the Teen jobs, are they a necessity or more of a situational thing? My Wonder Child is about to age to Teen, but right now both his parents are still living. Would he still need to get a job or…
Thanks @EuphorialQueen and @BUTTONSGINGER - like I said, I was pretty sure I missed it. We had a storm slam us yesterday in Colorado, and the barometric pressure drop was the equivalent of a category 2 hurricane. I'm still recovering from the mushy brain it left me with.
One quick question - now that I'm about ready to start creating my Astronaut - what lifespan do we play on, or is it aging off? I looked several times but coming down off a severe migraine I probably missed it.
@PixelChampion thanks for the answers! I'm getting ideas - in case you couldn't tell - and just wanted to iron things out before I started creating and planning further. :grin:
One more question: Is woodworking allowed as a way to work on Handiness for the Water sister (especially since it's also a creative endeavor that is boosted by the Home Studio lot trait that boosts both painting and writing)? Also... so I guess I actually had two more questions: Are we allowed to use lot traits?
Thanks @Hermitgirl :smile: When you download them, would you let me know which of their reward traits come with them, please? I'm curious if the purchased ones will be there or just the ones they earned (like the bonus traits for finishing their aspirations). They each earned "Collector" (from the Curator aspiration),…
Does it matter what Life length we play on (Normal or Long)? Also, I'm guessing since the Easy and Hard End goals both mention the sisters not aging up, this means we'd want to keep drinking those Cowplant Life Essences as necessary?
I'm going to preface this by saying that I'm a bad Simmer and didn't take many pictures during the last three weeks. I did however remember to track their funds and goals and such. I remember the highlights though... Drumroll, Please! I've finished out the Sim year with Ophelia and Felicia and they're both still alive!…
Wow! Thank you very much @BuildnShare ! I totally messed up the weather shots (used the cheats) and couldn't seem to get the weather to cooperate for my exterior shots - wanted to get some different shots to show how it looked in different weather. I finally had to play the game with my tester sim, before the weather…
Tea for me... lots and lots of tea. Probably gallons of it by now. Mostly herbal, but only because black tea tends to get too sharp once it sits and gets room temperature/cold. Herbal's still mostly drinkable in that state.
Thanks @Bonxie - I just saw this, but I'm going to save this info for later for further Strangerville (or non-technological times) playthroughs. :smile:
@EuphorialQueen I wanted to let you know about a couple of adjustments I made to the game. One: because I'm so OMPlumbob tired of the standing forever on the sidewalk when the sim gets home from work glitch (Ophelia stood outside talking to passersby while her Bladder, Hygiene, and Energy needs climbed higher and higher…
I've saved this - along with your TimeLord Challenge - to play once I finish at least one of the challenges I'm playing through right now. Looks like so much fun!
