      I'm pretty sure the Lifetime Reward Map is the same map you make if you put in the effort to find all pieces... I paid both the 25k points and found all 4 pieces and after I found the pieces and put it together nothing happened so..

      Which island has the biggest lot? I think it might be No Trouble Atoll, but i'm not sure. Thanks!

      So I reached level 10 in the lifeguard profession and didn't get an uncharted island. Did I miss something?

      The *theory* is that it unlocks based on how many sims you've saved rather than just reaching level 10.

      I got Cay island after saving a certain amount of lives. A notification pops up and says you get the key to it. I know it was under fifty lives because the lifetime wish my sim has is to save 50 lives and he didn't fulfill it yet.

      I am trying to unlock the island that the resort front desk told me about, I already talked to Rosa and delivered kelp to the science center. The next step is to firewalk successfully, which I have done on multiple occasions with different temps but nothing happens :( Does anyone know if I need to talk to someone after that or am I missing something?

      I just did that part and it told me to go back to the Science Lab to report in.

      Now I have to fight a shark. I think you have to scuba dive to do so, but I'm not sure how that works. Anyone had to fight a shark yet?

      Yep, just go down to the ocean floor and click observe on any shark that you see. If you're lucky (or unlucky? :P) the shark will attack you. Hopefully you don't die...

      How do you get your Sim to ask a local about an adventure in odrer to unlock an unchartered island? It doesn't seem to be an option for mine anywhere. :(

      How big is the lot on that island? I started my legacy family on a houseboat because I'm waiting to uncover the largest island lot to be their permanent home. Thanks!

      It's a 60x60! Sorry it's late, but I hope I helped!

      That's great thanks! I'm working on getting through the resort mogul LTW now so this island will be perfect for us!

      As far as I know, you can only ask someone at a resort about an adventure. I checked into a resort and asked the desk clerk.

      That sucks! To bad I can't check into a resort because it freezes as soon as my sim gets to the desk! :evil:

      I'm having the same problem! I just assumed it was my save file since it has been glitchy (since before installing IP).

      This is Mermaid's Secret.

      Note: I added the port myself. That little strand of beach is perfect for one. My ideas for this lot is to make a garden. My own little private garden island. It's full of beautiful flowers!

      My sim has found an Extraordinary message in a bottle,(or some such name similar to that) worth 3,333 simolians. when he found it, Plumbob Island was unlocked. I would like to put the pic I took of it, but I don't know how to post pictures here.

      I think I only have one left to find. It's the Lifeguard one, but I don't really want to be a lifeguard because it's kind of glitchy :(

      Beryly Shoals is great for building a resort if you don't mind toying around with terrain leveling. You get the ENTIRE ISLAND to build on, not just a designated "lot." Here's what I've done with it so far.

      What do you use to get the fully zoomed out view on the world map?
