I just started using the Club System and man is it a blessing. It's the one system that I like being vague and general because you can fit it into specific things without feeling like half the time you are just "pretending". It can range from being an actual club, to being for social events not in-game like Sleepovers. I rarely have to use my imagination because all you have to do is set the clothing to pjs and once that happens it auto feels like a slumber party with kids running around in their pj's and all sleeping in unison, with the help of Club Do's. I feel like it's perfect for "social groups" as well and many other things. How have you used this god given system?
exactly !
that club system is imo the most "sims" feature in TS4 so far
i wish the devs would develop more features like that, open ended, sort of in game tools to enable the players to tell their stories instead to ask the players to play along what the devs thought would be fun & funny to play
about the clubs i had
several family clubs which i adjusted to the respective families for all sorts of family activities,
one chess club for a group of elders, one writers' club, one woohoo club, one hackers' club, one painters' club,
several cinematic clubs for different groups of sims meeting together
& my most successful is the romantic club for two which i use for every couple instead of sending sims on dates
i will probably make also a bowling club of course
& i had a not so successful because glitched kids club, the standing still while the time is running bug was it, no idea if that was addressed in a patch already, i hope so
the rules for clubs which i use very often is to ban explicitly those activities, which sims do all the time if left idle, that was previously playing games on the phone, now it's more surfing the web & reading books as far i could test it
those banned rules keep clubs' activities in shape
i still wish there was at least a mod which enables A CLUB FOR ONE SIM
if there was i could finally ! ! ! have all played sims behave as i want them to, that would be a replacement of actually working traits !
without such a feature sims are all acting more or less the same, which is still nothing but boring
