Is There A Way

In scenarios, I know you can use existing sims or a new one. But what I want to do is: Play all scenarios with a new sim. BUT in one save file. I think that would be a nice way to fill a save file with sim families. I would have life span off until I was happy with the sims in this save. They would all be different with there own story.

    It says its not compatible with existing households. ( No Skill One) And I think for the others it said with new or existing sim.


    You can make a new household in an existing save game though, that's how you would start the scenarios which give that message. There are no scenarios that require you to to create a whole new save to start them, but there are quite a few which require you to make a new sim household.

    I did that. I created a scenario save & I play a new Sim or Sim family for each scenario. My scenario save and my Snowy Escape lifestyles save are the only things that are keeping me interested in the game at the moment.

    Sadly, I know what you mean, though for me, it’s the Scenario Challenges and Parenthood, the most recent pack I bought; credit goes to that YouTuber LGR, if not for his videos on the different Sims4 items being sold, I never would have gotten it and thus never would have gone online with Sims and got that awesome update with the Scenario challenges and had so much more interest in the game— for the time being.
  • Hey everyone I just had a DAAAAA moment. Every time I started a scenario I clicked the top where it says start new scenario save. It wasn't until just now I noticed all the other saves has a start scenario button to click on. Yeah!!! I am going to do it. Thanks for your responses everyone and I think this is going to add a lot to my game.

    I might try that actually. There are many scenarios I haven't tried yet, and I'm utterly bored of my current save - I went too ambitious again and tried to make an "extended" legacy by following all descendants. I think what I'll do is make yet another new save for scenarios, play them in order and afterwards, monitor the sims in "My Households" while I play a different scenario. It could be fun to see what happens once they have free reign.


    Yes thats what I want, but I'm not sure if the game will let us. Thats the, Is there a way comes in.


    I've started saves with different scenario households that I meant to play, so it should be ok.

    But how did you do it. Step by step please.


    What @Stormkeep said. After you initially start one scenario in a new save, you can start any other scenarios in that same save file. There are no scenarios that require you to to start a new save file to play them.
