SIMS IN BLOOM CHALLENGE - CH 1 - GEN 1
Meet DAISY BLOOM, our Generation 1 Founder. Challenge rules state that the founder has to have the Cheerful, Clumsy, and Loves outdoors traits, and that she has to max the wellness, fishing and gardening skills, complete the Freelance Botanist Aspiration, and have a job as a gardener. Likes the colors white and yellow. She can marry, but that sim must have the loves outdoors trait. My own additional rules are that Daisy must have a fully functional house with a basic bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living area before she can move her potential spouse in. I also downloaded one of the Maxis pre-made spa builds in Newcrest. ~ ~ ~ Playing Rags to Riches in Spring (30 days). Moved Daisy onto a vacant lot - 2 Olde Mill Road in Henford-on-Bagley. She sold all the trees and rocks on her lot and got $648 simoleons. I then downloaded a 0 simoleon Abandoned Cottage (it's a debug house), and added the debug toilet/shower stall from the Jungle Adventure pack. I also placed a debug contemplative stool (rental) for meditation. (This actually works to increase wellness skill). Lot traits are Simple Living, Penny Pixies, Homey, Wild foxes and Off-the grid. With the funds she had from selling the rocks and trees on her lot, she bought a dumpster (her bed for now - lol), and an Always Has a Snack Bag. She also purchased 2 inground garden patches ($10 each). After this, she had $4 simoleons left. She then got a job in the gardener career. It was now time to make some simoleons to purchase some garden seeds. She found a frog, some upgrade parts, a MySims trophy, and did some fishing at the pond. The welcome wagon came and never placed the food on the ground. So whatever it was, they took it back with them. She then headed to Finchwick and did some fishing...during a thunderstorm...and egads, she was struck by lightning. Deciding that she had enough fishing, she headed to the Gnome's Arms Pub to see if there were any eligible bachelors who also loved the outdoors. She feasted on free chips and water and made several friends, but no-one with this trait. She napped on the couch in the Gnomes Arms Pub and so ended Day 1. ~ ~ ~ Notes: Sims in Bloom Challenge Rules - go HERE. Abandoned Cottage by Quakeers. I had done a preliminary run-through for this challenge and found it difficult to find sims with the loves outdoors trait. So, bearing that in mind, I randomly downloaded some sims from the gallery, and also used some of the pre-made Maxis sims for potential love interests. I moved them into an empty lot in Newcrest, so Daisy will randomly meet them. Here they are. From left to right - Barry Varner (by nengster65), Terence Thayer (by nengster65), Brenton Ferguson (by Gods Treasure), Edmund Leighton (by Rickchikchik), Tristen Palmer (Maxis pre-made), Rémy St. Feu (Maxis pre-made), Kurt Lumberjackson (Maxis pre-made), and Pierce Coombs (Maxis pre-made),117Views2likes15CommentsI created an improved highschool using just Base Game and Highschool Years

Hi everyone, I recently found a build on TikTok but no one seems to know the name of the build or the creator. I assume it's made by Maxis themselves because it was on one of the trailer slides on the Steam page (The Build) based on a reverse image search that I did. Does anyone know what's the name on the Gallery? Anything can help.35Views0likes3CommentsWanted Man
In this thread I will document my gameplay of the Lone Traveller Challenge: rules here I created my own list of locations and length of stay will be only 1 die + 2 days, otherwise I intend to follow the rules as written. Meet Daniel O'Malley, a favorite sim whom I use in most of my saves! Daniel is... ♪ Well I went to sleep in Bridgeport And woke up in Willow Creek Wonderin' why the plum I'm wanted At some place half way between ♪ ...like this. An OUTDOOR LOVING, HOT-HEADED, HORSE LOVER, who also has a DOMESTIC side, that he probably won't get to live this time around. Daniel rolled three events this round: police investigation, (21) and (39) - I didn't look up yet what the other two mean. The investigation gives us a backstory, that explains why he took up traveling: In an ambigiously 1850s setting, Daniel worked in a general store in Magnolia Blossom City. After an argument with his employer, that went violent, he and his horse Plum are now camping at the edge of town. Trouble is, AFTER the brawl the employer got robbed, and Daniel is the primary suspect. He wants to catch a Mississipi steamboat upriver, but is not allowed to leave Magnolia Blossom City as long as the police investigation is underway. To pass time, Daniel agreed to train a mustang, Maira, for a nice sum (= his randomized means of income this round). Well, and that didn't go over well with Plum, who is just as jealous as Daniel is in my other saves (Jealous used to be his third trait before Horse Ranch introduced Horse Lover). Plum absolutely harasses Maira, who gives back as good as she gets. The family life on the O'Malley lot couldn't be any more explosive. One of the lot traits being Quake Zone doesn't help, either. So much for introductions. The following posts will have dialogue, maybe also some narrated passages. In the next one we'll meet the investigator. I keep him around to follow Danny wherever he goes, in the hopes of catching him at another crime.100Views4likes9CommentsWhat would you like to see added in the sims 4?
What are your ideas that you really would like the sims to implement to upgrade game play. Personally I think it’s long overdue the vacation aspect is looked at! We need hotels, similar to residential rentals we need vacation rentals but on a multi lot scale not just one single house. For instance I’ve just built a campsite but like other sims where you used to go and get assigned a room, all staying on one lot, you can’t do this! It would be great if you could check in at reception and get to pick which room to stay in and at different prices. EA we need this!! look forward to hearing more suggestions fellow simmers!
