Official Sims Inventory Build Challenge Rules

The challenge:

Fill a lot with a bunch of build stuff, and upload it to the gallery. Take the “inventories” that others have uploaded and use them in your own builds. The idea behind this challenge is as if a household is moving and has most of their old items and they need to create a new cohesive decor with what they have, in a different home.

Rules:

Every single item must be used at least once. If an item, for example a chair, is placed twice, then it must be used at least two times.

No changing the color swatches of the items.

If flooring and paint/wallpaper is included, then you must have at least one tile/section of wall with that material and it must be visible.

No using move objects to hide items that you don't like, every item must be visible. This also extends to having a throwaway room for the stuff you don't want to use, (unless it's a obvious storage room that makes sense).

You may add other objects if you would like, as long as everything already on the lot is used.

Debug is allowed.

Cheats are totally okay (not to be confused with cheating).

No cc if you are making the inventory. CC is fine if you are doing the build portion of this challenge.

If you download an inventory and you don't have one of the packs, that's okay. Just keep playing as if those items weren't there to begin with. Unless you want to make it more challenging and replace them with the closest matching items from the packs you do have.

If you are making the inventory, you may include whatever you would like, (pools, paint, wallpaper, flooring, lights etc). The more items you include, the more difficult this will be. As long as the basic structure of the build isn't included. Personally I plan on sticking to stuff that a family would typically take with them when they move but that doesn't mean you have to. It's completely up to you.

Feel free to stick to a theme or go crazy and add absolutely whatever you would like. Also feel free to change it up with what packs you use.

Make it harder:

Only use what's included. Only adding the necessary things for the bathroom and kitchen (toilet, sink, shower, stove, fridge, counter, if not already included.)

Use the build stuff in a house that doesn't fit the decor. Ex: modern stuff in a ranch style house or country stuff in a large fancy Victorian home.

Find a build shell off the gallery and combine both challenges if you want this to be really difficult.

Challenge a friend. Make crazy inventories for each other (maybe try to keep a similar number of items to keep it fair) and swap. Or challenge your friend to do the same inventory in the same shell. You can make this as easy or difficult as you want.

I'm hoping this challenge can help get people out of their comfort zones with building. This way you can get out of your typical building bubble. Or this could help those of you who don’t build much, to start. With a set of build objects already picked out, you can work on layouts and floor plans more easily. I also hope this will help people find objects that they weren't even aware existed. Use the hashtag #inventorychallenge to find existing inventories, and to post your own results. Make sure to upload them to the gallery to I can check them out. Also feel free to check me out on the gallery @katriciariet. I will be trying to use your inventories in my builds, and I have a dozen or so different inventories uploaded as well.
