Drama In The Family: A Legacy Challenge

So...@hauntedtrait and I created a legacy challenge! This was in the works for a year & now its FINALLY here. We wanted to play through a legacy that has some sort of drama involved because...who doesn't like to torment their sims with some drama!? We've tried to incorporate relationship, friendship & family drama into this challenge. There are currently 7 gens to play through and maybe in the future we'll add more gens.

here is the google doc with the full guide. Use the tag #DITFlegacy if you plan on playing! Would love to see everyones gameplay!

Under the cut is the first gen of the legacy, but you can check everything out fully in the link above~

Guidelines

Firstly and most importantly: have fun! The challenge guidelines are just that, they are not a strict rule set you absolutely must follow no matter what, feel free to change things around as you see fit. If it works for you, then it’s right. 

This challenge was created with all packs and some mods in mind to enhance gameplay, but do not let that stop you, adapt as needed.

Wanna cheat the game, feel free to cheat, who are we to stop you! (That said you miiight have more fun if you don’t — unless you absolutely need to) 

Some gens are meant to be played immediately after the one listed above it, but the overall order isn’t absolute and you’re welcome to change it around. The only hard rule is that the White Picket Fence MUST be the founding generation.

For each generation multiple traits, skills, careers and aspiration options will be presented to you. We recommend picking 2 or 3 of the suggested traits, and the third (or more, if you use the 5 traits mod) is up to you, and 3 or more skills. It’s also up to you which aspiration(s) you complete, as long as you complete at least one from the list! 

Reaching career level 10 is not required unless specified.

Each gen starts at the young adult life stage. 

Suggestions

Medium and long lifespans will offer more time and opportunities to fully experience all aspects of this legacy challenge, but if you prefer to play on short you are more than welcome to.

Utilize gameplay from L&D and Growing Together if you have them to give each generation more depth, like Wills, Bucket List, Heirlooms and Keepsake boxes.

If you have the Businesses & Hobbies expansion and like that kind of gameplay, you could use a Small Business in place of the career option to make it more immersive (ie. if the career is lawyer, you could make a law firm small business) 

Generation One: White Picket Fence

You come from a very traditional household and always imagined yourself following the same path as your parents: marrying your high school sweetheart, having three kids together and living in the perfect white picket fence home. Unfortunately, things have not turned out that way so far – there was no childhood sweetheart and your apartment is far from perfect.  You start university, but you find yourself struggling to stay on track. You work odd jobs and part time to make ends meet while you try to figure it out. At this point in your life, you’re actually not sure if everything you’ve always dreamed of having is what you really wanted.

Career: Any 

Aspirations: Any

Traits (Pick 2-3): Hates Children, Self-Absorbed, Romantically Reserved (or Unflirty if you do not have the Lovestruck pack), Non-Committal, Lazy. 

Skills (Pick 3 or more): Charisma, Logic, Writing, Knitting, Pottery, 

Goals

Start in a small apartment or still living with your family. Cheat or use SNB bank mod to give your sim 2000 simoleons or less. 

Work odd jobs or part time until you get pregnant/get someone pregnant from a one night stand or short relationship.

Shotgun wedding! Marry the first sim you get pregnant with during the pregnancy. Bonus points: your spouse must have a conflicting trait with one or more of yours.

Once married, move into a fixer upper home and renovate as family funds grow, doing the nursery first of course. 

Start your career, you can’t keep up a family of three and a house on gig work after all.

At some point, have an affair with a coworker. 

Situations

College Cram: Finals are almost here and… you’re not prepared at all. Truth is, you’re beyond stressed and unsure if you’re cut out for this kind of thing.

Option A: You decide it’s worth pushing through and getting this done. You’re nearing the finish line, just one more semester, you can make it work, so you pull some all-nighters and ignore the looming dread, successfully getting your degree.

Option B: The struggle is too real and you can’t deny it anymore: college isn’t for you. Your parents are disappointed and you’re not sure what you’ll do about career prospects, but you just had to get out. You drop out of college and try a different path in life than the one you chose when you were 18.

The Affair: You’ve been seeing your coworker for some time now… and your spouse finds out.

Option A: Despite your mistake, your partner forgives you, and you both promise to work to mend this relationship, after all, the kids don’t deserve the difficulties of a divorce. Unfortunately, you remain unable to stay away from your coworker… so you get better at hiding it.

Option B: This is it, the end of the line. Your partner will never see past what you’ve done. Divorce is filed, it is not amicable, but it is fair, each one gets half, and custody is split evenly, with the kids spending equal time with each parent.

Extras/Optional

Live and bicker with a roommate while living in the apartment. 

Despite what the description implies, you don’t HAVE to go to uni and work at the same time. 

Also feel free to cheat for university if you’re not a fan of that kind of gameplay. 

Your spouse must have a conflicting trait with one or more of yours.

Your coworker must have great compatibility with you.  

Make your sims parents and siblings, if they’re still alive!

Have more than one kid, maybe even one with your lover?

Rusty Needles Tattoo Parlor

Sul sul!

It’s been a little while. I hope everything’s been good on your end!

As you can see, I took a bit of a different turn this time. Before diving into my upcoming Disordinato set, I wanted to take advantage of the new Businesses and Hobbies expansion pack, especially since it added some cool features for tattoos.

I started testing to see if we could create our custom tattoo stamps, and once I realized it worked, I just had to make a full stamp set. Then I thought, “Well, what if we could display these tattoos in live mode too?” So, I made some framed tattoo artworks, then a few more. Next thing I knew, boom! A whole set was born. Totally unplanned.

And that’s how Rusty Needles came to life. This set includes 16 new objects and 34 custom tattoo stamps.

To use the custom stamps, you’ll need the Businesses and Hobbies expansion pack. But don’t worry, I'm planning to upload a few ready-made tattoos to the gallery in the coming days for those who don’t own the pack.

You can decorate your tattoo studio with items like framed tattoo displays that match your Sim’s body art, waiting area seating, and tattoo chairs. (Please note: the interactive tattoo chair does require the Businesses and Hobbies expansion pack, but all the other items work with the base game!)

You can find a full list of included objects down below ⬇️

lava-nder’s vanilla celebrity dump! 

i’m on gen 4 in my family dynamics LP and needed sum celebs soo here they are! Let me introduce them to you. - it might seem like a lot of text but it’s juicy pls read<3

1st row: Tash Castillo has been on Simstube since she was a teen, hence her massive following. She does every-day casual vlogs, and hasn’t been affected even a bit by all the fans and fame her career has earned her. She has been humble since day 1- Well, alright.. Maybe she did date famous chef Hiroshi Ono to live in his huge modern mansion for a while, but he turned out to be extremely possessive and toxic, so they broke it off after a year and a half, though Hiroshi is still bitter about it… Tash is happy now living in her lovely retro humble home with her husband Ty Kahn, who used to also be a chef, but hated how aggressive everyone was in the kitchen. He’s a soft happy boy, and he decided to share the smile he always has on his face by becoming a comedian.

2nd row: Yvonne Blanchard is your typical old money illustriously famous actress that everyone knows and.. hates. Well, it’s well known that, as good as she might be as an actress, she’s not the best person, and her daughter Audrey Blanchard is following those exact footsteps, willing to step on anyone’s back just to get the leading role. It’s no surprise that when Aurora Blanchard, that was known by the pen name April White, came out as the world-famous children’s author, no one believed her! They believed neither that such a dark creepy girl could be writing those happy-go-lucky children’s books, nor that her surprisingly sweet and generous personality could be related to the Blanchards!! If she wasn’t Audrey’s identical twin, and if her books weren’t filled with deep cruel allegories, no one would’ve believed her.

𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘩, 𝘉𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘗𝘰𝘱𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘯

You may think popcorn ceilings are ugly, but did you know that they serve a real purpose? Popcorn ceilings can improve indoor acoustics by mitigating ambient sounds in noisy indoor spaces. In older homes, they’re especially useful for hiding structural impurities. Sometimes a little ugly is a good thing.

🪻Foxglove Farm: A Decades Challenge Home 🪻

Have your legacy sims outgrown their simple starter home? Do they long for greener pastures or a fresh start in a new decade? Complete with a stable, nectar cellar, large farming enclosure, two animal paddocks, and a fishing pond, Foxglove Farm is a turn of the century dream! Inside are two modern bathrooms (the luxury!), an office, a nursery, three bedrooms, and all the activities a growing historical family might enjoy.

This house is designed to be accurate(ish) to the 1900s/1910s, as it’s meant to be a companion to my 1890s Decades Challenge Starter. Of course it can be also used for all decades or any style of gameplay, and I personally think it would make a fun “old” fixer upper for my modern babes!

Lot Type: Residential Lot Size: 50x40 Original Lot: 3 Ole Mill Lane, Henford-on-Bagley Lot Value: 108,363 Lot Traits: Great Soil, On Ley Line, Peace and Quiet Lot Challenges: Simple Living, Wild Prairie Grass House Size: 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms

As usual, it is CC free, but please feel free to redecorate it or redesign it, just tag me if you use it so I can see your lovely pixels enjoying it too!

BIG HAPPY FAMILY VANILLA BASE GAME FAMILY

Say hello to the Sims! Parents Alexander and Alisha; their three kids Arin, Aliah and Angel; and Alexander's mother Antonia and Alisha's little sister Amina all under one roof. (Dog not included. Those cost money.)

I was looking at all the new base game cas items and decided to make this family. 7 sims all in one household. Just like the good old days.

Sims have 1 outfit per category, pronouns, sexual preferences, likes and dislikes, turn ons and turn offs, body hair and all that. No skills and jobs this time.

Again, all you need is the base game for these sims. If you haven't updated your game in awhile everything wont show up, but it's all replaceable.

If you want the Sims family to look like they do in the pictures, check out my defaults linked below.
