A week on The Sims Forums
Sul sul!
Another week concluded! What are your plans for this weekend? Temperatures will be higher here, so I will have excuses to drink a lot of iced matcha lattes (yes, I have fallen to the trend...). What is your favourite summer drink? 🙂🥤
No news for this week, so let's jump straight into the Highlights!
Congrats to the newly engaged couple! posted here by BriiBear12

Let’s kick it off with CrazzySimmer’s question about everyone’s favourite and least favourite sims fears! Are there some fears that you find funny, annoying, or that you relate with? (I do hope you don’t relate with the Fear of being swallowed by a Cowplant, because there might be something very wrong with your garden…) It’s interesting to see that some of your favourite fears are someone else’s nightmare that they can’t wait to get rid of 😆 It’s true that some fears are tougher to get rid of, such as Being Inferior, so it also depends on the gameplay perspective. Make sure to share your favourite and least favourite fears in the original thread!

Next, cbarber89 has created a beautiful Pioneer Build for the Pioneer Day Celebrations on July 24th. The build is inspired by an old firehouse and an old city hall located in Spring City. The lot is a museum so your sim can appreciate the old architecture while learning a bit about history 📚 The two builds that form the museum have beautiful distinctive façades, and the interior looks like it has been recreated very accurately. Even the old jailhouse has been added! This would be a perfect spot for an nice afternoon for your sims who would like to diversify their activities.

If you have been following the Petite Alsace Collaboration for The Sims 3, you can catch up on some of the newest additions thanks to JudiAlbert's new video tour! The latest lots include two houses, a hospital and a bowling alley. Belle Vue Apartments (whatsociallife) and Vert Emeraude (Hidehi8) really look like typical Alsatian homes in their build and decorations. The Strasbourg Research Hospital (Sandraelle) will allow your sims to get treatment or come over to do some research or study in a historical building with renovated rooms. Finally, the Lutzelbach Bowling Lanes (Sandraelle) offers another attraction for the residents of Petite Alsace; it also keeps the original architecture combined with the retro decorations of the bowling alley. I really encourage you to have a look at Judi’s video tour, the level of details is remarkable and Petite Alsace is really coming along, I can’t wait to see the final results 😍

If you’re looking for a new challenge, Jonlou2019 has created a brand new one dedicated to Swedish author Astrid Lindgren, creator of Pippi Langstrumpf: the Astrid Lindgren Legacy 👧You actually start off with Pippi, living in her red house in Brindelton Bay, and move onto other generations that are also inspired by all the different protagonists from Astrid’s stories. I only know of Pippi so it’s great to learn a bit more about other characters. Each generation comes with its different rules, so this should keep you entertained for a while. Let us know if you decide to start this legacy challenge, or if this inspires you to take a dive into Astrid Lindgren’s books!

Finally, you can help out kusurusu to come up with different outfits for Sona! Sona is in need for new sports and party outfits that are compatible with the base game, but apart from that, there are no rules! Right now, Sona is rocking a navy sport set composed of a crop top with shorts. Maybe adding some colours would bring a modern touch to the look. One of her party outfits includes a jean jacket, skinny jeans and boots, which is always a good combo, but can feel a bit too casual for a fancy night 💃 So if you’re inspired by this challenge, feel free to showcase different clothes for Sona to pick and diversify her outfits!
And with this, that concludes the highlights for this week. I hope you have a great weekend and see you very soon 🤗 And always remember to wear your sunscreen!
Dag dag!
