Welcome to the Sims 4 Neighbourhood Legacy Challenge! This legacy challenge is designed to showcase the best of every neighbourhood within the Sims 4. Each generation will be based within each Sims 4 neighbourhood - so this will require all of the current packs! However, if you don’t have a certain pack, it’s totally ok to skip a generation or mix it up to your tastes! We have 8 out of 11 generations complete so far, so I will get to work on these ASAP! Let’s get started with your founder:

Starting Out:

~ Create a young adult sim (any gender/preference). They may be any species (alien, vampire, berry etc.) CC is allowed! ~ Select your aspiration and traits for your founding sim - you must pick one trait from 3 out of the four different categories (one emotional, one hobby, one lifestyle or one social - any combo) e.g bro (social), lazy (lifestyle) and bookworm (hobby). This will be the trait selection style for each sim born into the legacy. You may wish to make this harder by randomising a trait within each category as well! ~ Set your lifespan to long or normal - long is recommended ~ At the start of each generation you must move your sim into the neighbourhood and lot required for this level of the legacy. Your sim may not move, but is free to travel to any world they please ~ You must complete all aspirations unless specified in the generation ~ No cheats apart from MOO, resetting sims etc.

Generation One ~ Fall From Grace (Del Sol Valley - Get Famous Required)

Required Trait: self absorbed + 2 traits from other categories Career: Acting Aspiration: World Famous Celebrity, Master Actress/Actor or Mansion Baron

~ move your sim into the 64x64 lot in the pinnacles. Bulldoze the lot and give yourself $5,000 to build a house then take away the rest!

Book a celebrity cleanse to reset your fame tree, then purchase all of the negative fame perks. Pick fights with the press and be dismissive of your fans as people keep shaming you for your affair! All press is good press, right? ~ get divorced and your spouse moves out, taking your family with them. You never remarry but spend the rest of your life reforming broken ties with your family and restoring your public image, realising the error of your ways
