I haven't seen one of these yet so why not make one myself! I don't see many historical simmers on here who only play with historical families (like me) so I'm hoping to find some more with this thread. I currently need to stack up on some more historical sim screenshots but until then here's a few. Please share your own historical sims/historical sims screenshots!(One of my 1899 sims Elizabeth "Lizzie" Florence)https://i.imgur.com/litNGID.jpg(Lizzie and her secret girlfriend/lady's maid Theodosia)https://i.imgur.com/SV5nGHz.jpg(An 1820 portrait of my sim Eliza from my Eliza Through History series http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/comment/16483940#Comment_16483940)https://i.imgur.com/VVeJs14.jpg(Lizzie looking a bit grumpy while I'm trying to get the poses sorted)https://i.imgur.com/9gJtZtt.jpgI might add a few more soon. Feel free to share your history challenge sims if you are not a historical sims player like me!

Great idea!I haven't played with a historical family for a while but I might do it again soon!

I've always wanted to play historical sims but I don't really like using custom content. Really hoping the team release some kind of pack with medieval/victorian/other historical clothing and items some time in the future! I just love the idea of playing in different eras.

I really love your historical pictures - always seen them in other threads! They're amazing!

I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. Where can I get some historical CC?

I've been able to find 18th century clothing to a degree, but they haven't been updated and interfere with the game. I had to clean out my mods folder, as a result. :'( I really do wish I could have found the little white linen cap women wore during that time frame. It was supposed to help keep their hair clean in between washings, which didn't occur too often and certainly never during the winter months. :open_mouth:

Outfits are CC? Interesting idea. Do a lot of it in TS2 (medieval), but none in 4.

@fairytales It depends on what era of history you want to play in! Historicalsimslife (blogspot link here https://historicalsimslife.blogspot.co.uk/ ) is a very good historical cc maker but they mostly do 1700s/rococo cc

Wow! Your screenshots are awesome! I just started a historical legacy family. Two sisters born in the late 1870s. Their parents died when they were teenagers, and they are heiresses to their large Victorian house. The money starts to dry out, so one sisters marries an up and coming businessman. Her husband doesn't get along with the younger sister, and resents having to care for her wellbeing. They clashed a lot. She was turned into a vampire though and attacked him before running away. Now, I am going to play the legacy through the decades with the older sister's descendants mirroring the vampire sister through the decades. The non-vampire sister just had 3 girl triplets though -_-

Anyways, I don't use CC. I am trying to get by on expansion pack clothing. A lot of people wear the same things haha.

I'm actually in the process of collecting CC to do a Historical 100 Baby Save should be challenging and fun to keep those kids entertained without using a TV/Computer. Probably going to set it in a vagueish Medieval setting because there's been a fair amount of stuff out there converted from Sims Medieval.

There's actually quite a bit of decent historical CC out there now compared to when I last looked two years ago. Definitely makes me happy but I still hope we'll get some sort of historical based pack or maybe a Medieval type spin-off game at some point.
