The Sims 4: Animal Ark Challenge

Rules:

Create a Sim (young adult or older) with the trait Animal Enthusiast and the aspiration Country Caretaker. This will be the only Sim living in the household. You may add the traits Cat Lover, Dog Lover, Rancher or Horse Lover. You can cheat household funds only to have a big enough home for all the animals and to buy all the animals. After that, cheats are not allowed. You can join any freelance career or gain money from gardening, nectar making, etc. You just can't have a job that's off the home lot.

Adopt or buy two cats, two dogs, two chickens, two horses, one cow, one llama, one sheep, one goat, one or more fish, one hamster, one rat, one porcupine and one bubalus. The animals you have to have two of should be one male and one female. You may skip the animals of the packs you don't own. You can also have rabbits, birds and wild foxes on your lot by adding the items and lot traits from Cottage Living as well as the bees from Seasons and insects from Eco Lifestyle.

This Sim is solely responsible for taking care of each of these animals and keeping all of them happy every day.

The animals that can breed should have at least one offspring (kittens, puppies, foals and chicks) if possible. You may change some of the animals that require two of each to one animal so you can have more baby animals.

You may summon Bonehilda, hire a ranch hand, butler or maid to help take care of the animals if you find yourself struggling too much, but the idea is that you do it all on your own.

After finishing the Country Caretaker aspiration, you may start the Friend of the Animals aspiration. After completing that aspiration, you may start and complete Championship Rider. After that you can start and complete Angling Ace (keeping each unique fish you catch). Finally you can start and complete The Curator (once again keeping each unique animal you collect).

To make things even more challenging, you can try mastering the Fishing, Pet Training and Veterinarian skills from Cats & Dogs as well as the Riding, Endurance, Temperament, Agility and Jumping skills from Horse Ranch.

If any animals die before dying of old age or get taken away due to neglect, you fail the challenge.

That's it! Hope you have fun playing this challenge and please tag me in any videos or posts if you do!

The Sims 4: Medieval Save

Hear ye! Hear ye! The Medieval Save is finally here!

This has been an ongoing project which many Simmers from all across the world were apart of and we turned nearly 19 worlds from the game into medieval kingdoms. I've always been a fan of medieval fantasy as well as The Sims Medieval and so this save was born.

A few things to take note of:

* Due to the previous placements of some lots in destination worlds, a bug caused them to became unplayable. It is now fixed (as well as a few other things) and I kindly ask you to re-download the save and delete all previous versions (uploaded before 13 March 2023).

* This is not meant to be a historically accurate save and not all worlds can be considered "medieval". For example Oasis Springs was turned into Ancient Egypt and StrangerVille was turned into a Native-American world and there are many fantasy creatures in the save. Also, The Sims is a very modern game and we had to work with what we have. I guess it would've been more accurate to name it Historical Fantasy Save or something along those lines, but the main theme has always been medieval.

* It requires nearly all the packs and is quite a big file. I didn't want to restrict people's creativity and we don't have many medieval looking items in the game. I recommend lowering your graphics if you have a lower end PC and note that you might have many bald, nude Sims and missing build objects if you're missing packs.

* It doesn't add any new gameplay, though it could change how you play the game. Almost all modern appliances are removed and most lots are off-the-grid. This is not a mod and thus I couldn't add things like swordfighting or things that would make the save more immersive. Luckily there are many mods out there that could help with that.

* Some Sims with royal titles have longer names and editing them in CAS will force you to shorten their name. If you wish to edit them, you can shorten their name in CAS and just re-add their titles with MCCC in live mode.

* NPC Sims/townies will continuously spawn with modern clothing by the game's design. You can either delete them as they spawn, give them medieval makeovers or edit them in CAS and replace them with medieval Sims from the Gallery. There are some tutorials on YouTube which could help with this, like this video by KatsCorner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPsxmGk92M4

Dinner with the Goths

Mortimer Goth had a shocking expression on his face when his wife, Bella, told him she was expecting their third child. “Really?” he asked in disbelief. “You’re expecting again?” “I am indeed!” Bella confirmed. “Oh, I’m thrilled, my love!” he cried and embraced his beautiful wife. “I can’t wait to tell the children!” At dinner, Bella struggled to finish her meal as she contemplated how she…

To Be Stranded On a Bright, Sunny Day

To Be Stranded On a Bright, Sunny Day

It was a hot Summer’s morning when eight passengers woke up to find themselves stranded on a deserted island. They were on their way to a luxury resort, which each of them won in a radio contest, but the plane crashed and now they’re here. “Where the hell are we?!” Prissy Stratton shouted. “We are supposed to be on holiday, but instead we’re in the middle of freaking nowhere…just wait until my…

Uberhood -  A  CC-FREE SAVE FILE - Download v.1

1. Overview

The Uberhood is an ongoing PROJECT where I’m creating a savefile, with all the worlds and lore from The Sims 2 ported to The Sims 4. 

It currently includes Pleasantview, Veronaville and Three Lakes. That’s four residential worlds, one vacation world, and all the career lots (detective, hospital and science lab). It also includes all the premade families as well as the iconic townies that lived in those worlds in The Sims 2 times. They all have jobs, relationships, sentiments, lifestyles and reputation (please do check the sentiments because there’s a lot of drama in there!). 

Note that this is not a an exact replica of The Sims 2 worlds.  While everything is inspired by Pleasantview and Veronaville, I wanted to update everyone’s looks as well as the looks of the houses and community lots. All builds are built from scratch and they are not “makeovers” of any EA builds. I’d like to think this is what TS2 team would have done if the game had been released in 2021 with the packs that we have today.

DOWNLOAD HERE: http://www.simfileshare.net/download/2688629/ 

SEE INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. 

2. The towns 

The save currently includes: 

Pleasantview (Willow Creek)

Pleasantview Plains (Newcrest)

Career lots

Bluewater Promenade (Magnolia Promenade)

Veronaville (Windenburg)

Three Lakes (Granite Falls)

TOOL was used to decorate outside the playable area (added parked cars, playgrounds, etc.), but

you don’t need

TOOL for the save to work or for the objects to show. I also added rabbit and bird spawners in Three Lakes and some areas of Veronaville. 

THE REST OF THE WORLDS (EXCEPT HENFORD) ARE 100% EMPTY, as I will be developing them in future versions of the save.

2.1 Pleasantview

For more information on the lots and the families of Pleasantview please see this post: https://anotherplumbob.tumblr.com/post/627890352769089536/pleasantview-2020-v2-a-savefile-now-100 

2.2 Veronaville

For more information on the lots and families of Veronaville please see this post: https://anotherplumbob.tumblr.com/post/660212870129352704/veronaville

2.3 Three Lakes

For more information on what you’ll find in Three Lakes please see this post: https://anotherplumbob.tumblr.com/post/660213269671395328/three-lakes

3. Required packs and How to Install (PLEASE READ)

ALL EXPANSION, GAME PACKS,STUFF PACKS AND KITS RELEASED UP UNTIL COTTAGE LIVING ARE REQUIRED. Star Wars pack will never be required.

If you don’t have them, sims may be half naked, and/or bald and stuff may be missing. Install at your own risk. 

In order to install:

BACK UP YOUR SAVES.

Download the the SAVE file.

Put the save in your SAVES folder.  Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4 > Saves. I changed the name of the file so that it will hopefully not overwrite any of your saves (including the previous v1). If your system prompts you to overwrite a save, do not click yes. Just change the name of the save (keep it 8 numbers but change the numbers) and try again.

4. Recommended CC

Even though this is a CC Free save, these sims were originally created using CC skintones and eyes so they look best with CC in my opinion. In fact they creep me out without CC.

Please see my resources if you want to download the same default skintones and eyes that I use: https://anotherplumbob.tumblr.com/FAQ

6. Special thanks

I’d like to thank @ophelia-nygmos​ for putting up with my in Discord throughout this project, and also for testing the save and creating some of the amazing townies you’ll see running around.

7. Disclaimer and TOU

I’m just one person and there may be some bugs here or there.

Feel free to report them but I will only fix them if I consider them super relevant or game breaking, otherwise the save is provided as is and you install it at your own risk.

THE TERMS OF USE ARE: Be nice, wash your hands and get the vaccine when you can.

Freak For a Friend

Freak For a Friend

Ita Mann and I were old friends, going back to kindergarten. So when she called me over the phone, sobbing over the death of her husband, Chuck, my heart bled for her. I wanted to be there for her and help in any way I can, so I asked her to come over for a weekend. I was surprised how much weight she gained since I last saw her, but it’s not uncommon to eat more during quarantine. “You’ve gotten…

A Fairy's Tale

A Fairy’s Tale

I always knew I was different. Back in elementary school, other kids would call me “Elf”, “Pointy Ears”, “Freak” and all sorts of names. I had an ear condition that made my ears look pointy and I was forced to wear a uniform to school, which made me an easy target to bully. The insults got worse each year. I later started wearing my hair loose to try and cover my ears, but they were too long and…

New Residents

I remember life before death. I used to be a well-renowned paranormal investigator in the late 1970’s. Yes, the one and only Claude René Duplantier Guidry. People worshiped me – they took my photos, asked for autographs and even made a painting of me. Years later, that same painting would become my permanent residence. I had a girlfriend. Her name was Temperance. She couldn’t stand seeing me…
