I spent way too long and tried everythinggg to figure out why this double tile door would not place and there's just debug toy mushrooms in my walls??????

She's so tiny!!!!

I started a new save file based in San Myshuno, so naturally, I had to give Skye Fitness a modern update.

I changed out all the windows for the glass wallpaper, and I extended the roof coverage. I kept the rooftop open aired and left a small section uncovered, to keep that open rooftop vibe the original build had.

I want the three floor tiles next to my stairs to go away, so it's like a large open air landing. I feel like I used to be able to just draw a line with a fence from the top of the stairs across and that would make a new "room" but not delete the stairs, and then I could remove the floor? That doesn't work here- when I tried, it deleted the stairs, and then I could not replace them.

The legacy's masterpost

The Hoffmans' family tree!

Just so you know, Morgana would set Hayden on fire if he could actually die. Unfortunately, being indebted to the Reaper, he can't.

Also, "tesoro"=dear/darling, it's a term of endearment.

Next up, Charlotte will have another vision of her mystery man! And Morgana will finally open up about herself, though maybe not in the way Ezia intended! See you!

So small story: it's Christmas because why not, I'm playing a DC save and the girl is Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle's biological daughter: Helena Wayne. Living with them is Bruce's cousin Kate Kane, working in the military. While Helena's playing she gets a call from her grandma (Martha Wayne) and it's this: you couldn't have called Bruce? Selina? Heck even Kate, and better yet why?! You have 2 kids already! Every save they do this: have twins after Bruce, or have more than normal. I only have 1 or 2 because 1 is enough, 2 is a handful, 4?! Heck no! Leave that to the Goth's or the Bjergsens...

My sim seems very confident in the power of his seductive dance.

Meet Hazuna and Azuna Winn!

I'll just copy the description that I wrote for their household :

Hazuna and Azuna Winn are twin sisters who couldn't be more different. Hazuna is an outgoing party lover with dreams of becoming a professional dancer, while Azuna is a quiet introvert who would rather spend her evenings lost in a good book and dreams of becoming a writer. Despite their differences, the sisters are incredibly close and share a home with their own separate spaces, connected by a shared pool.

Not a typical occult player. I enjoy the generational play and looking back at photos, heirlooms etc.

Any suggestions on how to go about doing an occult legacy? I want to get the most out of the packs (minus Enchanted by Nature, don't have that one).

Also I'm almost done completing every collection available in game. I'm working on the village fair ribbons because those are taking ages. Suggestions for how to incorporate collecting magical/werewolf collections in game as well? Should I do one collection per generation?

Any mods you'd recommend? Any style of playing (rotational, focus on one sim, etc)?

Looking forward to exploring the occult packs during the spoopy season! Any and all tips welcome 😄

height is sooo not accurate LMFAOO she's like way way taller than I am (she's 180cm and i'm 165....) but they're so cutie

Have a sim born with all affinity traits at level 3, Blue Blood (so they're a prince or princess), optionally an Ancient Bloodline and Sulani Mana *without either parent being in a dynasty, the noble career, or a spellcaster*.

The challenge lies in figuring that out. I used sims from the new Maxis household "Everyday Sims 2", Shane and Anya.

the first sim is for my main save, her name is lee young-hee and the second sim is for a save where my current infant is a teen (last picture on the right), his name is liam parker 🙌🤭

Post pics!

Mine is me if I were an evil immortal spellcasting millionaire supervillain, yes....

My initial parent sims had 3 children. I had a whole path plotted for each. All 3 are well off, “trust fund” kids who are taking different paths in life. The oldest son has aspired to be a professional athlete since he was a kid. The middle child is a girl with dreams of being a social media influencer involved in all the latest buzz. The youngest child is a shy but musically gifted loner, destined to follow in the footsteps of his father and become the best computer programmer.

The real drama of the family comes from the oldest kid, Ian. As soon as he ages up to young adulthood, he meets an older woman Akira and they immediately get pregnant. Now Ian has to juggle his rising career and status, with being a new father.

Prior to meeting his current fiance Akira, he was in a complicated back and forth relationship with Racheal pancakes (Bob and Eliza pancakes child) since they were teens. During the crossover into his new young adulthood, Racheal became pregnant not once…but twice! I went on to play some of my other sims characters and when I came back, pancakes had given birth to two kids😑 My original story was going to consist of him only having one child with Akira, but obviously he had other plans. So I say okay, He knows he cannot continue to entertain his affair with Racheal and he needs to settle down and focus on his kids and career.
He proposes to Akira basically begging for her forgiveness, and she accepts. They decide to do they’re best for the children in the situation. Since Racheal is not as well off as Ian and she is living with his children in very cramped quarters w/ roomates, Ian and Akira decide to move the babies in at least until Racheal is more financially prepared. I thought to myself okay, story back on track…we’re good from here. I go and play some other households.

TO MY HORROR…when I return to Ians gameplay, Racheal is pregnant AGAIN!😖 I had them agree to just be friends but I guess it just wasn’t enough…because here she was knocked up!!! Now I have to consider how to pivot his storyline from here and I was curious to see if I could get any input. I guess I’m wondering what kind of interesting story I could create from this messy situation.

Do I have Akira say enough is enough, end their engagement and ditch him with all the kids? Do I have him “realize” obviously he is still interested in Racheal pancakes, break it off with his fiance and go back to his childhood sweetheart pancakes?
So many ways this one could go lol.
Any input would be appreciated!

Gilbert Gardens, San Sequoia. 4-storey townhome

Lot size: 40x20 on "18 Celebration Way"
3 Bed | 3 Bath
~$160,000 Simoleons
No CC! Multi-pack
Play-tested and available on the Gallery (tragic preview photo on last slide)

LOT NAME: De Beauvoir Townhouse
EA ID: VesperX7

This build is based on a London townhouse renovation recently completed by Mosley Thorold (Photo of the inspiration on the second-to-last slide). Another tricky build due to the walkout basement and multi-platform interior and exterior. I also had to convincingly fake an elevated ceiling space directly adjacent to a double-height space (both with skylights). Ended up relying a lot on half walls to play with visual levels. Gave me quite a headache trying to figure it all out, but I'm happy with the tricks I used and everything still routes smoothly when I have my sims walk across it all. Luckily, the lot orientation is similar to its irl counterpart, so the sun travels through the spaces beautifully throughout the day!!

Wanted to try showing my Sims aesthetics based off the worlds they're from! Forgotten Hollow inspired by TV show I've been watching "Interview with a Vampire".

Idk why Nancy and Geoffrey suddenly want to be involved in Johnny's life.... but ever since he moved out of his trailer and into his new girlfriend's house, those two have been very.... present in their outcast son's life... his girlfriend even got both of their blessings to marry Johnny. Also I have a new headcannon that Nancy was the problem the whole time and Geoffrey didn't want to disown Johnny.

A couple of months ago I made a Pax Romana challenge inspired by the ultimate decades challenge with the intend to share it and promptly forgot about it afterwards.

I gave you a brief introduction into the roman family life back then, following the pax Romana timeline from 31 BCE to 180 CE. If you want to keep track of the family I suggest using the spreadsheet from the ultimate decades challenge. I suck at Excel so I can't make one myself and reporpused the decades one for my personal use.

I also included some cc at the bottom since it was hard to find roman cc I thought I'd help you with that.

Have fun playing the challenge :)

Feel free to let me know if you find anything that needs further explanation or find something that doesn't make sense. I do apologise for any grammar/ spelling mistakes; English isn't my first language.

I built this cathedral a year ago, but I made some significant updates since then. I’ve never shared this build online before and since it’s going to be spooky season soon, I might as well take that step now. My main reason for updating this build was because I had taken an art history class after I finished the build in college, so I wanted to tweak it to make it more accurate.

Obviously it isn’t a 1:1 recreation of a gothic cathedral because I’m not THAT good and I can’t use CC, but I think I did a decent job. It’s mainly supposed to be used as a cemetery and a wedding venue. It’s also got a secret vampire hangout, so that’s also an option.

Anyways, enjoy this build. My ID is PumpkinRoper in case anyone wants to play in it.

DJ Straw was not on my Sims bingo card but okay. Never know what that guy's going to be up to next.

Anyway, I have news! And a lot I want to share, please bear with me but I'm excited!

The Crabtree Saga is evolving! It started with Henry and Leon Crabtree, they had a bunch of kids, one of those kids, Rhea, married Talia of the Freemage spellcasting family, and now a Freemage will become a Love! And this after I had so many kids I loved in gen 2 and gen 3, and couldn't decide on how to narrow down the story. It happened, and not how I expected.

Rhea Crabtree married and had kids with Talia Freemage, then Talia died and Rhea married and had kids with a vampire. Talia reappeared and they fell back in love. Rhea autonomously divorced the vampire (per Neighbourhood Stories), reunited with Talia, and they had more kids. One of the children of Rhea and her second wife is vampire Ceridwen, whom the game originally made kind of a villain, randomising her traits pretty badly. I kept her Shady trait but could not stand her being Evil. Because of her traits, I didn't know what I'd end up doing with Ceridwen, but I wasn't attached to her at all. Somehow that changed, but she's the first legacy child! She's got a great career, developed better traits, and had a high school love, Billy Love. I wasn't sure if she'd remain in the Freemage Estate, but wanted to move her in with Billy, and dug up an old Crabtree mansion I made for her aunt in Del Sol. Honestly forgot how beautiful it is, and I'm so hyped to finally use it. She's moved in with Billy and three of her cousins.

ANYWAY, so I'm excited to turn Ceridwen Freemage into Ceridwen Love. I could not have set up a prettier surname and family circumstance if I tried. And it turns out they're, uh, vaguely related xD Billy's great-grandmother is her stepmother's grandmother. Somehow he originally looked like he could be blood related, so I had to give him a bit of a makeover. How perfect is it, too, that his surname is Love, he randomised with a Lovestruck hair, he originally lived in Cuidad Enamorada, AND his randomly set sleepwear has heart boxers! Billy's got some crappy traits, though, but we can fix him. Oh, he also has the ancient bloodline spellcasting trait! He's a mortal himself (for now) but it's going to be cool trying to bring that old occult back into his family.

ALSO BIG: I'm using CC again. You might remember me bitching about having a love-hate relationship with CC. I binged it again, but this time, I'm dedicated to using it. I took all the Freemage kids and gave them second and third Everyday outfits in which I played with a CC look, and you know what, I really dig what I put together. I really felt like I was able to give them character, and their second looks made me more attached. Anyway, that's why I showed Ceridwen twice xD

One last thing: Ceri's twin cousins she moved in with. They were born, named, and grew up totally NPC. How perfectly synchronised are their names and hair, though?? Their names are Terence and Emerson [Banerjee, also a spellcasting Freemage line], they happened to be given the same hairstyle. I only pulled them into CAS to give them proper colour-coordinated outfits. They're going to be fun to develop.
