The Adventures of Melinda (Mindy) Jones
Hello, my name is Melinda Jones but you can call me Mindy which is my nickname. Mindy is believed to be a nickname to Melinda but I love Mindy because I love watching the Indiana Jones movies, so I shorten my name to Mindy. Ever since I got into watching the Indiana Jones movies, I wanted to be an Archeologist and that was when I was 6 years old. After watching the movies, I would go outside and dig into any dirt pile that I could find as well as a few other things that I won't even mention as it's too embarrassing to talk about but my parents got pictures of those times but I won't ever show them to anyone...😳 I'm known as being a goofball who loves reading and being in the outdoors where I can enjoy nature and going around collecting rocks and any gems that I find on the ground and in the dirt. But sadly, I lost all of my earlier collections when our house burnt down and I lost my parents in that fire. Thankfully I wasn't at the house at that time as I was in high school, but lucky for me, I was old enough to live on my own. So when I didn't have a house to live in, I stayed in a camper that I brought and placed on the lot while the house was being rebuilt with the insurance money that I was given. The contractors would work on the house during the day while I was at work and on the weekends until it was ready to move back into. It's a good thing that my parents had a good deal of money saved up for me for when I became an adult as I needed it sooner rather than later. My parents weren't filthy rich but they were well set up because of my grandparents on both sides of the family. So I will be posting about my adventures that I get into here and hopefully they will be very exciting ones but if not, then that's okay as well as I just want a written or should I say, typed blog to keep track of all the fun things that I get into...🙂 I do have some things that I have already done and had jotted down on paper as well as some pictures that I took of those things as well as pictures that people took of me using my camera, but I need to sort them all out in the order that I want to present them in my blog. So I will see you all later my friends and take care! Love, Mindy ❤️ Day 1, Pt. 1 Day 1, Pt. 2 Day 2
CK213: VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartending Action
This may, or may not, be the start of my new Let's Play series. I would like to play my own version of the characters from VA-11 Hall-A with a Sims 4 spin. But this depends on how the new forum works as I experiment with it right now; Bear with me while I set up and try this and that. 😅
My Sims 1 Save File Progress
I've been working on recreating The Sims 1 in The Sims 4 and it's still quite a work in progress, but I'd like to share what I have done so far. I had shared some already on another post where I had started playing as The Newbies, but I've added some more since then so I decided to make a new discussion for it. I started with Neighborhood 1 and decided to place it in Newcrest. I'm using 20th Century Plumbob's map replacements. We'll start with Lot 1: 1 Sim Lane - The Jones Family You know the saying? Keeping up with the Joneses? Well, the Jones family are doing pretty well for themselves. Or are they? Every family has their quirks. Edward works in business, Barbara is a stay at home mom, and Bobby is doing well in school. Sounds perfect, right? I guess we'll have to wait and find out.
👽 Miller Legacy 🛸
Sul sul fellow simmers! The Miller Legacy is my first Legacy Challenge and the way I found to explore the (for me) new The Sims 4 game in the moment I decided to buy it. It's the translation of what I originally posted in Italian here, and the new chapters are being posted on my blog here. I'd also like to point out that this legacy is currently being shared also on the parallel Sim Creative forum. This small forum has practically the same template as the old one and is not buggy, making it a very cozy place where to share the old conversations we used to have in the former Creative corner. I suggest you to give it a look! ;) Back to the introduction, with this legacy I'm basically novelizing what happens when I'm playing my game, introducing as many mysteries and issues to overcome for my sims as I can. For sure, the Miller's are not a family like the others. I'm not a fan of too strict gaming rules, thus my main rule is just: "reach generation 10 without cheating". This legacy is definitively more story-driven than rules-driven. So I'm not taking track of points in any way, often instead of choosing traits or careers randomly I choose what I think would be funnier for me to play or better for the story progression, I often move the family to new houses (not built by me because I'm a horrible builder) and so forth. In particular, I'm taking a lot of freedom about a certain cat, but also in that case I found a way for doing it without technically being cheating. As for the heir, I don't follow a strict rule but just choose the one for which I can imagine the best character development and who can give more in terms of story progression. The only rule I'm following in that sense is that I want every heir to be the biological child of the previous heir, because I'm curious to see how the genetics algorithm in TS4 work over a 10 generations span (consider this as a small experiment :P ). The full story index (beware, it's long!) can be found HERE. I'm closing this premise here because I don't want to spoil the story, so I wish you a pleasant reading through the most mysterious sides of this game ;)

Welcome to BNS 190: A Bar in the Woods You can't believe your eyes! Country singing legend Hank Blois has just walked into your office! You realize your mouth is gaping and hastily close it into a wide smile. You introduce yourself and shake his hand warmly, offering him bottled water and a chair. He sits down after you do. "What can I do for you today, Mr. Blois?" you ask, still a bit giddy. He smiles and stretches his legs out. "I have a debt to repay. You see, when I first started out, my good friend Shuck Frazer used to allow me to sing at his bar every night when he did not have booked entertainment, or if the booked entertainment didn't show. By doing that, he really let me build up a group of die-hard fans of my music. About four years ago now, his bar was demolished by a tornado. Since it was during the pandemic, he had no money to rebuild the bar. I only found out a few weeks ago when I finally had time to visit him. The poor man has taken to fishing and playing checkers all day, not really knowing what to do with himself without the bar he had for forty years. He has planted fir trees to sell as Christmas trees in a few years, so the lot is not available for building. I bought the lot beside it for the new bar. I know we can't give him an exact replica of his bar. Maybe a new bar would be better for a fresh start anyway." You agree with him and ask what the budget is and if Shuck has any hobbies or collections that might inspire the decor. Hank pulls a wad of bills out of his breast pocket and tosses it on the desk. "I have $300,000 for the bar. Hmm, well, I know he used to be into cars and motorcycles in his younger years, and he had some photos of that in the last bar. So let's stay away from that kind of thing. I am thinking, a country bar maybe, with country-type decor. Nothing too flashy, but everything comfortable and homey. He needs an office, public restrooms, and a kitchen for cooking food. A cellar to store all the bottles and kegs of drinks would be a good idea, but with the entrance behind the bar of course. Hmmm...a stage for me to play music for his granding opening, of course, and a dance floor. A place outside for BBQs and events would be great. And whatever else you think a bar/business will need these days. Do you think we can do all that for the budget?" "I am sure we can, and we can do it by the end of the month!" you let him know proudly. "You just made my day!" he grinned back at you. The brief: Lot size: Any Budget: $300,000 Build a country-style bar with country decor. It should have: A bar area An office A few tables and chairs both inside and outside. Bathrooms, a kitchen and a BBQ area Various bar activities A cellar to store kegs. Landscaping The Sim Challenge Create Shuck Frazer and some staff to help him run his new bar. You can pick all details - traits, aspirations, likes and dislikes, etc. Remember to show their outfits and include some s screenshots of them running the bar. The Room Challenge: Create Shuck Frazer’s office. Budget: $15,000 Remember to include the hashtag #bns190 with your build so it can be found.
