The Disney Princess 10 Gen Challenge!
WELCOME TO: THE DISNEY PRINCESS 10 GEN CHALLENGE! SIMS 3: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/760184/the-disney-princess-challenge-10-generation-legacy MY CHALLENGE: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/809222/my-disney-legacy-challenge-11-jan?new=1 INFO: This challenge is based on the Disney Princess franchise and movies. Storytellers can follow the original stories or you can just roll with it. Some areas of this challenge ask for gender-specific heir/heiresses, this can be easily changed out if you're playing patriarchy or matriarchy. This challenge follows the original rules of the 10 Generation Legacy - although some rules may vary. If you own a particular expansion pack, then feel free to incorporate this however you would like, ideas will be provided as well with . Generation 1: Snow White "I'm wishing for the one I love to find me today" Founders have humble beginnings, so what's better than Snow White? To start, create Snow White. Storytellers may create her as a teenager and make her evil stepmother, but this is not a requirement. When Snow White becomes a young adult, this story begins. - Must be female - Must have 7 children (dwarfs) - Each child must have one negative trait (e.g Gloomy, Glutton) - Each child must have the same baby daddy - Each child must achieve something before their teenage years - this can be reaching level 5 in a toddler skill, reaching level 3 in all toddler skills, completing their childhood aspiration, or becoming an A grade student in school - Snow may never answer the door to strangers or talk to elderly women : Parenthood - each child must age up with at least one positive character trait. This number can be increased if you're looking for more of a challenge. Generation 2: Cinderella "A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep" Although you had six brothers and sisters, you always did the cooking and cleaning. Yet, somehow you loved it, as it transported you away from your chaotic home life.

The Legacy Challenge Rules
Note, items in bold have been modified from the original posting. Please take note of them. Legacy Challenge The Legacy Challenge is a long, 10-generation challenge where you start out with a single founder and very humble beginnings and try to lead the family to fame, fortune and success over the course of 10 generations. Starting out Create a brand new game file. You will be using this file exclusively to play your Legacy Challenge. You may use an existing game file, but your Legacy family must immediately become the “Active Household” and not cease to be active for the duration of the challenge. You may select any neighborhood. The challenge begins with a single founder. Make this founder in Create A Sim. They may be male or female. They may be any age that can have children (YA, Adult and Elder for males, YA and Adult for females). You have full choice over their look, color and clothing. Custom content may be used if you like, including create-a-style custom patterns and colors. You may choose all 5 traits as well as their three favorite likes (food, music and color) and a lifetime want. No other sims may be created in the founder’s family. Be creative with the family name, you’ll be seeing it for quite some time. Now to place the founder. While you are free to choose either standard town, there is a very specific lot that must be used. If you move into Riverview, you must move into “345 Riverblossom Hills Drive”. If you move into Sunset Valley, you will be moving into “15 Summer Hill Court”. The common thread between these lots is that they are large, empty and cost $14,700. Yes I know that leaves you with only $1,300 in cash to build a house, that’s the point. All legacies start out with very humble beginnings and expect your founder to live like a hobo for awhile. If additional neighborhoods are made available with mods or EPs, or we gain the ability to plop our own lots down, they may be used, as long as the lot in question is completely empty and costs at least $14,700. Rules: No cheating. Plain and simple, no money or mood cheats. You may use custom objects, as long as their price and mood effects are in line with similar ‘official’ objects. Objects purchased from the Sim Store are considered 'official' as well as the ones included with the game. Aging and story progression must be on and lifespans set to the normal level. You are allowed to play with any Mod that does not give you a signifigant advantage over a player without the mod. The only specific mod I know of at the moment, Awesome Mod, is allowed. The Legacy family must be the “Active Household” during the entire challenge. You may never switch the active household to another family. If you want to take a break from Legacy play, it is recommended you play in another saved game slot. No Ambrosia! Your sims may learn the recipe for Ambrosia, but may not cook or consume the dish. Nor may ambrosia be used to resurrect ghosts. You may not ressurect dead sims via the Science lab. Sims may not consume life fruit to gain extra days to their lifespan. You may age sims up via the birthday cake only once the game prompts you with a reminder of their impending birthday, not earlier. You do not have to use the birthday cake to age sims up, you can wait for the game to force the age transition if you wish. Death Flowers may not be kept in inventory. You may gather and sell them, but cannot be used to ward off death Black Market Restriction: The Black Market is no longer being monitored by police. Kleptos, rummagers and theives are now allowed to liquidate their ill gotten goods for cash. Moving Sims in: Any sim may be moved into the Legacy Family via marriage or move-in except for the following: Sims created by the player Sims/households downloaded and imported from the exchange Sims that had previously lived in the Legacy household but had since moved out Sims that are identified by your sim as "Rich" are now fair game for all sims except your founder. All other sims are fair game. You are allowed to create/download/import sims and families into your Legacy neighborhood, they just cannot join the family. No sims/families may ever be merged into the Legacy family. If you wish to add members, they must be done in game. Challenge concepts Generation: Order of birth in relation to the family at large. Your founder is generation 1, your founder’s son/daughter would be generation 2, the grandchildren of the founder would be generation 3 and so on. The challenge ends the moment generation 10 is born. Founder: The sim you create in CAS who starts the family. Heir: The sim belonging to the family bloodline who is slated to bring in the next generation once he/she is old enough and finds a mate. Spare: A sibling of an heir, who can become an heir should anything happen to the current heir. Spares may be fed to the time stream or kept on the lot if you wish. They are eligible to earn legacy points for the family. Fed to the time stream: Moving a controllable sim out of the legacy house. A sim fed to the time stream no longer can generate legacy points for the family, but still may be interacted with. Legacy points that have already been earned by this sim still count towards your total, even after you move the sim out. Legacy Points: Your score for the challenge, earned in a variety of ways described below. The goal of the challenge is to get as many legacy points before the 10th generation. Legacy House: The lot initially moved into by your founder. You may not move the family to another lot during the entire challenge. All heirs must be born in this house (or rather, born from sims living at this house, even if they use the hospital to give birth) Bloodline: Any sim who can trace his or her family tree directly to the founder. Adopted sims are NOT part of the bloodline. Sims that are moved in are only considered part of the bloodline when they contribute to the birth of the next generation. Mate: A sim brought in from outside the family to reproduce with the current generation’s heir to produce the next generation. When the next generation is born, the mate becomes part of the family bloodline and eligible to earn points. Points: You earn points for your family in the following ways. Generation: You get 1 legacy point for your founder, and 1 point for every generation born until the 10th. You earn each point at the birth of the first child in each generation. Further births in that generation do not generate more points. Thus you can only earn a maximum of 10 total Generation points by completing the challenge and birthing the 10th generation. Lifetime wants: You gain 1 point for every unique lifetime want fulfilled by a family member. The sim in question must be living in the legacy house and be part of the family tree to earn this point. Once a specific liftime wish has been fulfilled by a sim, further sims fulifilling that wish will not earn you a legacy point for doing so. There are 32 unique liftime wishes in the game, meaning you could earn a maximum of 32 points in this category. Portraits: 1 point for creating a portrait of a family member and keeping it on display after their death. Like above, the sim must be part of the family tree and living in the legacy house to qualify for this point. You earn this point after the portrait is created, you do not have to wait for the sim in the portrait to actually die. Portraits are still worth their points even if the family member pictured is moved out of the house later on. The skill of the artist doing the portrait does not matter, as long as it features the sim in question it counts. Portraits may be of any size or style. Keep in mind that a sim must have a painting skill of at least 5 to get the option of painting a still life (needed to capture a sim’s picture). Sims must be of Young Adult or older and living on the Legacy Lot at the time of painting to count for a portrait point. Legacy House: Earn 1 legacy point for every $100,000 in net worth the house is worth. To get the net worth combine the "Furnished Value" of the house with the family's cash on hand. Round up. This category can have a maximum of 20 points earned, meaning a net-worth of 2,000,000 Aspiration Rewards: If a sim is able to earn 100,000 points worth of aspiration rewards, they earn your family 1 legacy point. You are free to spend aspiration points as you gain them, it is your lifetime total, not your current total, that matters for this point. Like the other sim-based points, this may only be earned by family members. You may earn an additional point in this category from a sim if they somehow earn 200,000 points in their lifetime. . Birth and growing up Whenever a sim is born or ages up, they will often obtain new traits. Sometimes these traits are randomly assigned by the game. Other times the game lets you pick them. In the Legacy Challenge, all traits are random. If you are given the option to pick traits for any sim, you must hit the random button and accept the trait that is randomly assigned. The only exception is if you are playing with the "Family Trait" optional rule. If you are, and the family trait is one of the options, you may select that trait rather than hitting the random button. Death Sims that die on the family lot may be kept around as ghosts, or may be moved to a cemetery. It is up to you. If a sim dies and you forgot to get their portrait, making a portrait of their ghost does not count. If the bloodline is cut short by death, the challenge ends immediately. It is always a good idea to have at least one spare in case the heir perishes. Even if ghosts become playable, they may not earn any further points for the family. Ghost babies are not considered part of any bloodline. Bringing in the next generation. In order to bring in the next generation, a new sim must be born. Adoptions do not carry the family bloodline and thus don’t count. (You are still allowed to adopt sims if you really want to, but they won’t help point wise) If the heir is male, you must move their mate into the legacy family house before having a baby. If the heir is female, she may move her mate in, or simply get pregnant while off the lot. In either case, the heir and their mate don’t have to be married. Sims may be born at home or in a hospital, whichever you prefer. The moment the next generation is born, the heir’s mate officially becomes part of the family bloodline (and thus can earn lifetime want, aspiration perk and portrait points for you, provided they are living in the Legacy House). Optional Rules These are optional rules you may play with if you wish. They don’t affect your score in any way, and are merely tools to help establish a theme for your family. Family Trait When creating your founder in CAS, choose one of the founder’s 5 traits to become the ‘family trait’ for your legacy family. There after, every sim born to the legacy family must possess this trait by the time they reach young adulthood. If they do not inherit it at birth, you must choose that trait the moment you are given the option to. The remaining traits still must be rolled for. Matriarchy/Patriarchy Whatever gender your founder was, this must be the gender of every heir. Meaning if you started with a female founder, only female children may become the heir to bring in the next generation. Children of the other gender are still counted as part of the family bloodline and may still earn the family points, they simply may not bring in the next generation. A male dominant family is called a Patriarchy, a female dominant family is a Matriarchy. Story Teller A popular practice is to write a story for your Legacy family and upload it in chapters. If you feel the creative energy, why not try uploading your own story? There is no in-game bonus for doing this, but the addition to the community is always welcome! FAQ Why do I have to buy such a big lot. I barely have money in the beginning. Early poverty is a hallmark of the challenge. A large plot of land not only drains the available cash from your starting funds, it gives you the ability to build some epic sized legacy homes as you play through the generations and get more wealth. If I’m playing with the family trait option, does my sim’s mate have to have that trait too? No. Can I move in/marry sims into the legacy home that aren’t going to help bring in the next generation? Yes, keep in mind that they don’t earn any points for the family. Even sims that are destined to help bring in the next generation won’t count as part of the family until the next generation is actually born. Does the first born have to be the heir? No, as long as they are part of the bloodline and born on the legacy house they are eligible to be an heir, regardless of order of birth. They must be the proper gender if playing with the matriarchy/patriarchy option. Are collection items, such as rocks, insects and seeds subject to the black market restriction? No, you are allowed to sell any collection items you find...as long as they weren't stolen out of someone's house or garbage.
Decades Challenge

Welcome, and thank you for checking out https://i.imgur.com/BxWTgGk.png This is a highly dramatic, plot-driven legacy story that follows Alexander Rosebrook, the grandson of one of the characters in my now-complete SimLit story, Dust to Dust. Though reading Dust to Dust is not necessary to understand/enjoy this story, I will caution you that this story does contain SPOILERS for Dust to Dust. If you plan on checking out Dust to Dust, I strongly recommend that you read it before beginning this legacy. :) Please click the link at the top of this post to check out my story :blush: Thank you so much for reading!
Not So Berry Legacy Challenge
Not So Berry Legacy Challenge Do you like the rainbow? Do you like the idea of playing with berry Sims but hate berry Sims? Do you want to mess around with aspects of the game you’ve never used before? Boy, do I have the challenge for you! Welcome to the Not So Berry Legacy Challenge, a ten generation legacy with a focus on bright colors and new experiences. Basic Rules: Each heir must represent the color of the generation (i.e. hair, makeup, clothing), but brightly colored skin is not necessary (these aren’t actually berry Sims, that’s the joke). Of course, this is optional but a big portion of the fun. The colors of the spouses don’t matter as they aren’t part of the challenge. Unless otherwise stated you can do whatever you please with them. Money cheats can be used, but not excessively. Suggestion: use freerealestate for your first home, but no cheats afterward. You may live wherever you please unless something is specified in the rules of a generation. Every generation is supposed to complete both the career and aspiration of the heir unless explicitly stated otherwise. Keep the lifespan on normal. If you play this challenge and want to share it with us, go ahead and post with #notsoberry on twitter, tumblr, or even the gallery so we can see!The Sims 4 I'm a Lover Challenge 10 Generations

TS4 Parentcy Challenge
UPDATE 25/09/21: Adoptions are allowed! (excluding generation 1) I realise no adoptions wasn't a very inclusive rule and have removed it to be more inclusive! Rules No Cheats No Mods that can make the challenge easier or provide you with an advantage i.e mods that alter the prices of objects or bills or enable easier promotions etc Custom Content is allowed No quitting game without saving The heir is required to stay on the lot until they die No Lifetime Rewards (exception for gen 2 and Fertility Treatment) You are allowed to play other households as long as you do not interact with the sims involved with the legacy (so i.e I am going to change the clothes on one of the sims and I'm going to make one of their friends get married or something) When you move onto the next generation, the old heir/founder cannot earn points from their point chart, likewise, they cannot lose points either. Only skills that have been maxed by the heir to the next/of the current generation are counted for points. You may use the MC Control Center on other sims as long as they are not married to the heir, going to become the heir and/or related to the heir and still living in the household. Obviously if your sim gets abducted, there is nothing you can do about it, and that's fine. It'll be interesting to introduce alien blood into timeline. This counts for every generation: +25pts for every aspiration completed. GENERATION 1: SINGLE PARENT OF ONE (Two if they have twins, three if triplets) You create a sim. They venture out into the world to make a living. They reach level 2 of a career of your choice. They meet someone and become pregnant or impregnate someone. The other parent disappears.

[BETA] The Sims 4 History Challenge
IMPORTANT NOTICE: After more than a year of trying to get back to updating this challenge, only for life to throw something new in my face, I have accepted that I won't be working on this for the foreseeable future. HOWEVER, the awesome @Snowie has taken it upon herself to step into my shoes and keep this challenge alive, and she has my complete blessing to do so. If and when I return, we will figure out how to proceed. In the meanwhile, you can find the latest semi-unofficial updates here, and the matching scorecard spreadsheet here. My apologies for not keeping this challenge updated, and for taking so long to accept it, but I hope you'll enjoy it now that it is in Snowie's capable hands. /Cloudseeker LATEST UPDATE (February 29th): Fish and plants no longer count toward the money earning goal of the Prehistoric Era. The goal has been lowered to 20 000 simoleons to compensate. This is so that people won't have to decide whether to sell a fish or keep it for food. Also, the plants had the potential to make the goal absolutely trivial. The challenge-wide goal "earn 150 000 simoleons during a single Era" has been raised to 250 000 simoleons. I have added some clarification as to which social events are needed for the challenge-wide "earn 10 gold medals on each social event" goal. The cas.fulleditmode cheat is now allowed for modifying tattoos and other skin details, but ONLY for those purposes. Gaming Tables have been moved from the Roaring Twenties to the Old West. Both male and female Sims may now have multiple mates during the Prehistoric Times. Popcorn Poppers are now allowed from the Roaring Twenties onward. Movie Projectors are now allowed from the Roaring Twenties onward. Wishing Wells are now allowed from the Middle Ages onward. http://i57.tinypic.com/211rtz5.png ABOUT THE CHALLENGE The Sims 4 History Challenge is a Legacy-style challenge that takes your Sims on a journey through the history of the world. It spans 7 major time periods, referred to as Eras, from prehistoric to modern, across multiple generations of Sims. The selection of aspirations, careers, and objects you may use will be quite limited at first, but as you progress through the Eras you will unlock more and more options. You will be challenged to not only succeed in the long run, through a set of challenge-wide goals, but also on a per-Era level, as each Era has individual goals that can only be completed while that Era is active. The challenge is designed to be historically accurate on a general, foundational level, with a few changes and personal touches to keep it challenging and dynamic. I have tried to keep available careers, objects, etc appropriate to each Era, making modifications only where things would conflict or when they would just make playing the game a pain. The main inspiration for creating this challenge was the Through History Legacy Challenge for The Sims 3, as well as the Legacy Challenge. Many thanks to Cassalina and Pinstar/ImaginingMystic for inspiring me to do this. RECOMMENDED MODS/CC Please remember that downloading mods/cc is at your own risk. Though the chance may be small, they can possibly break your game. If you feel uncomfortable using mods/cc or simply don't care about things being time-appropriate, but still want to try this challenge, you are certainly free to do so. While this challenge technically does not require any mods or custom content, the following mods/cc are recommended in order to have as good an experience as possible. In addition to the listed mods/cc, feel free to download as many additional aesthetic mods/cc as you want, such as hair, clothes and time-appropriate object variations, to give your challenge a bit more life. However, you may not use any cheat mods, or mods that otherwise give you an advantage over people who do not use them. If you find a mod/cc that you think would be good for this challenge, let me know and I'll add it to the list if I think it belongs. Teen Careers For All Ages by Plasticbox (outdated, may not work) No More Culling by Dark Gaia To avoid the ghosts of family members being removed, allowing the related Modern Day goal to be properly completed. Nature Calls Wild Grass Toilet by LadyCadaver To give Prehistoric Sims a place to do their business. Not needed if you have Get Together. Notebook by Plasticbox To give Early Civilization Sims a way to write books before the invention of the computer. Typewriter by Ozyman To give Old West Sims a way to write books and do career-related activities before the invention of the computer. Empty Worlds by One Billion Pixels (recommended by @ewright9) Only download this if you do not want to manually delete all lots and households during the setup phase. DO NOT FORGET TO MAKE BACKUPS! No More Autonomous Phone Actions by SimsProductions (recommended by @ewright9) Stops Sims from constantly using their phones on their own. Not necessary if you play with autonomy off, obviously. SupeSpeed Mod by Artum (recommended by @ewright9) Use this to manually activate super-speed in case it doesn't automatically get activated when Sims go to sleep. Gain Hygiene from Swimming by Tanja1986 Use this if your Sims no longer gain hygiene from swimming in pools. Download the normal version, not the "Faster Hygiene gain from swimming" version. No Autonomous Roast at Campfire by ClaudiaSharon (recommended by @Anninhaliz) Stops Sims from autonomously roasting random stuff on the campfire. Not necessary if you play with autonomy off, obviously. SrslySims Tumblr by @SomaSin Multiple time-appropriate object variations created with this challenge in mind. The No More Culling mod is a script mod, and so it is important that it is installed correctly. Make sure that you place the .zip file directly in your mods folder (not in a subfolder), without unzipping it. You must also allow script mods in the game options. EXPANSIONS/GAME PACKS/STUFF PACKS To play this challenge as intended, you will need the Outdoor Retreat Game Pack, as it contains a number of items and gameplay mechanics that are necessary for the Prehistoric Era. Other EPs/GPs/SPs are not required, but you can use them if you wish. I have added special, optional rules for them, and those rules are colour coded so that you can easily see and disregard rules that relate to an EP/GP/SP that you don't have. The EP/GP/SP colour coding is as follows: Outdoor Retreat Get To Work Luxury Party Stuff Perfect Patio Stuff Spa Day Cool Kitchen Stuff Spooky Stuff Get Together Movie Hangout Stuff Romantic Garden Stuff CHALLENGE-WIDE RULES The following rules apply to the entire challenge, but may have exceptions during a specific Era, if the rules of that Era explicitly say so. All traits and aspirations, except for those of your Ancestors, must be decided randomly, using whatever method you prefer. I personally recommend using CreateARandomSim, as it allows you to easily select which traits and aspirations should be considered for randomization. A Sim's aspiration may never be changed, not even once it is completed. The only exception to this rule is if a Sim has an aspiration that is not allowed for the current Era, in which case you must change it to an allowed aspiration, chosen at random. Your challenge household may not move to a different lot during the challenge, and you may not play any households other than your challenge household. Your Sims may travel freely within the challenge World, and may travel to other Worlds if required by a challenge goal or an aspiration. Sims may be moved out of the household at any time, but moved-out Sims may never be moved back in. Sims that have moved out may also no longer contribute to any goals, but any contributions they made before moving out still count. Only spouses/mates may be moved into the household, but they may not bring in any money. To prevent this, make sure that they are not the only member of a household before moving them in, or use the money cheat to remove any money they may bring in. Moved-in spouses/mates may contribute to goals. The Lifespan setting must be set to “normal”. Sims may not be aged up manually except for when it actually is their birthday. Items that modify a Sim's age (except for the Birthday Cake), or resurrect dead Sims, may never be used. Sims are allowed to Plead with the Reaper to save a dying Sim, but they may not use a Death Flower to guarantee success. Cowplants may be grown, but not sold. Cow Berries may be sold, however. If you want to get rid of a grown cowplant, simply place it in your family inventory. Additionally, you may milk cowplants, but if you do, you must immediately sell the received Essence. Reward Potions, like the Instant Fun, Happy Potion, and Moodlet Solver potions may not be purchased or used until you have reached the Middle Ages. Potions of Youth are still forbidden, however. Cheats may not be used, except for getting out of glitched/bugged situations, or when you are explicitly told to use a cheat. EXCEPTIONS: moveobjects may be freely used for aesthetic purposes, cas.fulleditmode may be used to modify tattoos and other skin details (but NOTHING else), and bb.showhiddenobjects may be used to add ponds to community lots. Fishing in the hidden areas (Sylvan Glades, Forgotten Grotto, etc) may only be done by Sims that have reached level 10 in the Fishing skill. The different Eras have lists of what objects/furniture may be used during that Era, and they append to the objects allowed for the previous Era. For example, during the Middle Ages, you may use all objects that are allowed for the Middle Ages, Early Civilization, and The Prehistoric Times. However, to try and avoid walls of text in the rules, I have only listed objects that have some special functionality. For items not specifically allowed for an Era, the general rule is to use it only if it makes sense for that Era, but if you are unsure, it's always safe to just not use any items that aren't specifically allowed. Some community lots might however require objects that are not yet allowed for the current Era. In such cases, just place the objects in a room/basement without an entrance, so that Sims cannot get to them. Sims are allowed to craft anything they can on the woodworking table, and objects they craft may be used even if that type of object would normally not be allowed in the Era-specific rules. The "Copy" option on crafted items (Paintings, woodwork, etc) may not be used. If you want two crafted chairs, you'll have to craft two chairs. Ghost Sims, except for the ghosts of your Ancestors, may be moved into the household, and they may contribute to goals if they were eligible to contribute to goals while they were alive. However, only one Ghost Sim may be moved in per Era, and a moved in Ghost Sim must be Released to the Netherworld when you progress to the next Era. Instead of storing all of your urns/graves on your challenge lot, you may create a Generic community lot to act as a dedicated challenge graveyard. Alien Sims may not join the household until the Roaring Twenties. If a Sim should happen to be abducted and made pregnant before this, you must either terminate the pregnancy using a mod or cheat, or send the baby to its homeworld as soon as it is born. Crafted items sold in a personal store may not be restocked using the restock option, they must be re-crafted by a Sim in the household in order to be sold again. Clubs may be created and joined at any time. Use your common sense when setting club activities, so that they fit the Era. ERAS There are a number of general goals that cover the entire challenge, but each Era also has its own set of individual goals and restrictions that are specific to that Era. The goals are locked to their specific Era, and therefore can only be completed while in that Era. Restrictions, on the other hand, are additive, so everything that gets unlocked in one Era stays unlocked, for every Era after it, unless it is explicitly re-locked. In other words, if something is not directly stated as allowed or disallowed in the rules of your current Era, the rules of the previous Era apply for that particular thing. You progress to the next Era when a new generation is born, i.e. when the child who began the Era (or one of their siblings) has a child. Something like this, for example: http://i57.tinypic.com/2uz9ma1.png The only exception to this is the Prehistoric Era (this is further explained in the Prehistoric Era post). GETTING STARTED It is recommended that you start a fresh, new game for this challenge, since you cannot play any other households than your challenge household in that save file. Create your two Ancestors, one male and one female, both Young Adult, and both human. Give them a prehistoric/tribal look, and choose their aspirations and traits out of the ones allowed for the Prehistoric Era. Make sure their relationship is set to “Roommates”. Consider sharing your Ancestors on the Gallery, using the #HistoryChallenge tag, so that others may add them to their game. Choose either Willow Creek, Oasis Springs, Newcrest or Windenburg to be your challenge World. Newcrest is recommended, since it spares you the trouble of bulldozing everything. Select any empty lot in your chosen World (the largest available lot if you chose Newcrest) and move your Ancestors onto it. As soon as you regain control, exit back out to the “Manage Worlds” screen. If you did not choose Newcrest as your challenge World, select your Ancestors on their lot, and click “Move Family”. Move them to a 50x50 lot, bulldozing it and evicting any family already occupying it. If you did not download the Empty Worlds mod, and did not choose Newcrest as your challenge World, bulldoze all other lots in your challenge World. Delete all households except for your Ancestors. Place a Pool Venue and/or a National Park community lot somewhere in your challenge World. If you want to, you may also place a couple of residential lots in your challenge World. You may create these lots as you go, or place them from the Gallery, as long as they adhere to the rules of the Prehistoric Era. You may also move in a couple of additional households, if you wish. If you decide to create lots and/or households, consider sharing them on the Gallery, using the #HistoryChallenge tag, so that others may add them to their game. Finally, select your Ancestors and start playing. Use the following cheat to set your household funds to the proper starting amount: Open the cheat console Enter testingcheats on to enable advanced cheats OPTIONAL: Enter money 1000 to set the household's funds to 1000 simoleons, and buy some decorative trees, shrubs and rocks using that money. Note that this will increase your bills, and these objects cannot be sold until the end of the Prehistoric Era. Enter money 2500 to set the household's funds to 2500 simoleons Enter testingcheats off to disable advanced cheats Close the cheat console You are now ready to start the challenge! CHALLENGE-WIDE GOALS These are the long-term goals of your family. They can be contributed to and completed at any point in the challenge, by any Sim that is eligible for contributing to goals. They award points upon completion, no points are awarded for partially completed goals. A simple Excel spreadsheet for keeping track of these goals, as well as the individual Era goals, can be found here. If you'd rather keep track of your score using pen and paper, a printable PDF version can be found here. Also, @ewright9 has made a small sheet specifically for keeping track of the 50 000 simoleons goal of the Prehistoric Era, and it can be found here. Reach level 10 in every skill at least once - 1 point Earn 10 gold medals on each different type of social event - 1 point Only the base game social events are required. These are House Party, Dinner Party, Birthday Party, Wedding and Date. Earn 250 000 simoleons during a single Era - 2 points Reach level 10 in 2 different careers on the same Sim - 2 points Reach level 10 in 10 different skills on the same Sim - 3 points Have the same Sim earn at least 20 000 Satisfaction points - 3 points Complete each aspiration at least once – 4 points Complete at least 10 in-game collections – 4 points Represent each Era with a family portrait/photo – 5 points A "family" portrait means a single portrait with both parents and at least 1 child in it. The child must be older than the “baby” stage. The parents do not necessarily have to be the child's actual parents, as long as they are the parent figures of the household. The portraits/photos must be on display somewhere on the lot in order to count. Display the graves/urns of all deceased family members on the challenge lot or on a dedicated graveyard lot - 5 points The graves of family members that died while they were not part of the household do not need to be displayed.

The Amazon Challenge (Updated For Sims 4) (Island Living Update!)
Note: Original creator Isaria (mod the sims) all original content was created by her so the original idea is not by me. Amazon Challange You start as a young brave amazon woman who builds her tribe over the course of time. The Beginning -Begin with a YA Female -She needs to be beautiful -She needs to be Athletic and a Genius -You need to start in a empty lot (Preferably the biggest) Rules -Because its an amazon tribe only women. Men are allowed but only Male Slaves, Breeding Males and Tribal Sons -Men have their own quarters (must be small). They should not mix with females but only for breeding purposes. -Men should only be used for breeding and slaves. -Men for breeding have to be discarded (It's your choice on what to do.) -You can only create amazons with CAS every 2 weeks but you can invite townies to become amazons whenever you want -Slaves can be won in combat, an amazon (preferably the warrior) must fight him and if she wins you can add him to the tribe. -You can only have two male slaves (not including teens, kids or babies) too many men will spoil the tribe. -Males born in the tribe are to be used as slaves until their YA birthday. Then they have to be killed. Before killing a tribe son, a non related woman can use him for breeding purposes, once. A tribe-born male is cleaner than other males and if you wish, they can be buried in a special cemetery on the lot (this cemetery can NOT be mixed with deceased females, since male corpses will contaminate the female ones). -Men cannot leave the lot or get a job -Boys still go to school (There really isn't any other choice) -Newcomers shall not bring in any money. To get rid there money do this: Enter: Testingcheats true Then Money x (x is amount) -A women who gets engaged or married to a man is to be punished by death. -The heiress is the first born female of the creator she will take over in the event of the creators death. -A heiress can overthrow the creator but she must have the support of the amazons. This is usually done through a fight if she wins the creator will be executed but if she is unsuccessful she will be banished from the tribe. -The creator can not be married but other amazons can marry each other. -To get to a certain rank they need to at least have some skill-points in most of the specializations. They also need to have a fitting job (if possible). This is if nothing else is mentioned. Upon raising in rank, they can change to a more fitting career. Tribe rankings The Creator She is the first of the amazons and the highest ranking amazon. She is in charge of the whole tribe and is the most respected. Traits:Genius, Athletic Skills: Mechanical, Fitness, Charisma The Heiress She is the next in line to the throne and this rank is only given to the descendants of the creator. Skills: Mechanical, Fitness Warrior She is the strong and fierce amazon in charge of protecting The Creator and tribe. She will be in charge of conducting punishments and executions and is just below the heiress in the hierarchy. She must train in fitness and will not be able to have children but can take partners. She is fierce and is allowed to sentence amazons and slaves to death or punishment (unless they are a priestess, shaman or a heiress then they are judged by the creator). Traits:Active, Ambitious Skills: Fitness The Gatherer She is in charge of collecting food and gardening. She is not allowed to get a job she has to spend her days collecting and gardening. Skills: Gardening, Fishing Scholars Their job is to seek knowledge with reading and painting they may also collect valuables. She has to write books of past creators. Skills: Charisma, Logic, Painting, Writing Providers They cook and tend to the children and babies. They are also in charge of learning instruments and playing for the tribe. Skills: Cooking, Charisma, Guitar, Violin Newcomers and Tribe Family These are girls born from the creators and heiresses. And the ones added in without a field yet. Skills: Added when ranking chosen Elders They are the aged amazons and the ones you go to for wisdom. They will be given a well respected funeral. They cannot take on any career Sons of the tribe Will be used as slaves until the age of YA, there after they can be used once for breeding, before being killed. Slaves A maximum of two can be in the tribe at the same time. These need to have a small place to live, since they shouldn’t mix with the females too much. They take care of things like cleaning, repairing and such. If a slave interacts with a female without permission, he will be punished. Can’t work, or even leave the lot. If they try to escape, they’re to be punished. Tips! *Different ranks should wear different colours and clothing. *Here are some face paints that would look great on your amazons. (http://tinyurl.com/hqoa8ly) *To have woohoo with a slave and not have a relationship you can create a club and have one activity be woohoo but an easier method is through the mc command woohoo module that allows woohoo without a relationship. !!Outdoor Retreat Update!! & !!Jungle Adventure Update!! Your amazons can now venture further than ever before here are some of the new things added for Outdoor Retreat & Jungle Adventure. Tribe Rankings Shaman (Exclusive to Outdoor Retreat) The shaman is the amazon that connects with the spirits and sees the life giving nature of this world. She will be the one to seek for ailments and advice from the spirits. She will need the herbalsim skill which is gained through gardening she will also have to prepare herbal remedies. She must also once in her life journey to the hermits house to gain knowledge. Traits: Loner, Loves Outdoors Note: Elders are allowed to be shaman's Explorer She must go on quests for creator and travel to far worlds to seek new objects, sacred relics & creatures she will either go alone but she can take the shaman and the scholar if she chooses. Traits: Loves Outdoors, Outgoing Things to do Grand High Meeting Of the Amazons The amazons every week shall meet around the fire pit to discuss further plans for the tribe (it's also a good time for you to think about the future). During this the creator must talk to the shaman about what the spirits sees and her judgment of the spirits (Read next text). This can also be a time to introduce newborns to the rest of the tribe. Judgement of the spirits With this the creator must talk to the shaman during the amazon meeting where the shaman will give her a quest to complete in the sacred lands of granite falls or the home of the amazons in Selvadorada. She must go alone and complete the tasks that she was presented with by the shaman or a high priestess. !!Spa Day Update!! Tribe Rankings Sisters of The Moon (Priestess) Sisters of The Moon connects with the goddess's on a whole other level. She is wise and connects to the nature around her. She must master the wellness skill as taking on a seclusive life connecting with everything around her. Sisters are not allowed to be in any romantic relationships with other amazons or procreate with slaves so only amazons that have never slept with anyone else are allowed to take this role. Sisters of the moon must be chosen as soon as they are a child if it is decided that the girl will join the sisterhood she must go live with the other sister's who have their own hut (the sisters hut can be placed with the other amazons). Slaves are allowed NO interaction with the sisters with the consequence of death. They will need to take on a life of meditation and yoga and will perform ceremonies for the goddess (these ceremonies are entirely up to you). Note: You can have a specific goddess for your tribe so you may want the goddess of fire if so the sisters will dress in bright robes with similar colours to fire. The moon goddess is just the generic choice. Traits: Loves Outdoors (Can change depending on your goddess) Skill: Wellness Things To Do Sister Ceremonies With the introduction of the sisters you will host ceremonies to please the goddess's. These will run entirely up to you but some idea's are a sisters ceremonial mediation circle, slave sacrifice and food offerings. Although the moon goddess is the main goddess you are allowed to make your own up for your tribe. !!Get Together Update!! Amazons will now be closer than ever with this new addition. Tribe Rankings Entertainer This amazon is out to entertain the tribe gaining new skills set out to impress the rest of the amazons with her dancing. She must master the dance skill and under a full moon the Amazons will gather together to witness her beauty and elegance. She will use the bonfire to her full advantage and learn to dance with the fire. She also has to master all the instruments available to your amazons. Traits: Creative, Music Lover, Dance Machine Skills: Dance & Music Things to Do Amazon Club The amazons with a set ranking (no slaves, newcomers, elders or tribe family) will form the grand high council of the amazons (name is up to you) in this group they will come together to do the set out tasks chosen by you. You need to cater these tasks to your own amazon tribe (e.g. A nature tribe will do gardening and spend time outdoors). There are tasks that will be forbidden and they are any romantic interactions, slave activities, games, drinking or excessive eating as well as anything that will spoil the amazons. They must discuss the future of the tribe and strengthen their bond you can choose the place to meet but I recommend the natural pools and the ruins. If you have outer tribes they can form a club with you but you must create a separate club. New Place To Live The expansion added Windenburg which has great new areas to live. I recommend you demolish all lots on the island and move your amazons to the 64x64 lot there. Not only is it massive but it is very stranded and can be used for strong immersion purposes. It is close to the ocean which allows for alot of fishing and it is surrounded by ruins which would go very well with your tribe. !!Vampire Game Pack Update!! All Vampire Amazons This is an option if you want to try something new. All roles would stay the same even the gatherer since you still need to make money. Slaves would not be allowed to be turned since they would be more usefull as walking plasma packs and would still need to work in the daytime. The Creator is the only Amazon to be made into a vampire with CAS and if you want to turn an existing Creator then you'll have to cheat with cas.fulleditmode since The Creator holds the highest rank and can have no master. The Creator must turn all the amazons herself if an amazon is to be punished or executed eating garlic or trapping her in broad daylight works. Warrior (Vampire Pack Version) She is the strong and fierce amazon in charge of protecting The Creator and tribe. She will be in charge of conducting punishments and executions and is just below the heiress in the hierarchy. She must train in fitness and will not be able to have children but can take partners. If she is human she will make sure that no Vampires will come near the tribe so she must study cures and garlic items to protect the tribe. She is fierce and is allowed to sentence amazons and slaves to death or punishment (unless they are a priestess, shaman or a heiress then they are judged by the creator). Traits:Active, Ambitious Skills: Fitness !!Pet Update!! Pet Companions Now Amazons can have the companions they deserve. Out from the ocean came a new amazon called the beast tamer, she is a friend to all animals and is the amazon to train and care for pets (not including animals for worship). She is not meant to be the main companion and her role is mainly caring for animals like washing,feeding and training. She must also find strays or raise puppy's for those who request one. Pets can be for companionship, hunting or worship. Companionship pets are only permitted for high ranking amazons like the the creator and heiress (so they must have the highest relationship) the beast tamer must train them to obey all commands. Pets for hunting are permitted for warriors (only large dogs are used as companions for warriors), gatherers, explorers and shamans and must be trained by the beast tamer to better hunt animals and trained to obey all commands. These animals will hunt for creatures to sell and and be a fierce companion to the warrior. The last type of animal are the ones to be kept for worship. If a goddess is tied to a specific animal (i.e. cat goddess or goddess of nature) animals are kept with the high priestess and are to be cared for and worshiped by them. There are two ways to find pets the first is through CAS but if you choose this way it has to be created as a puppy and raised by the beast tamer till they are an adult. The second is for the beast tamer to go out and find strays in good condition and train them till they are fit enough to be given away. The pets must always be female if a mistake is made and the animal is male then it must be given up for adoption but if the animal is docile and relatively small they can be given to slaves. Beast Tamer She is one with nature and works with all animals. Her role is to train and care for pets and to give them away to select amazons. If an Amazon requests an animal it's the tamers role to either find a stray or raise a puppy from CAS to be the amazons companion. The amazon must train the animal to obey all the commands. In her spare time she is to make sure all animals have food and are clean. If she has a child she can train her to become a beast tamer by giving her a pet and teaching her how to care for the animal. Aspiration: Animal Skills: Pet Training Type of Pets There are three types of pets.. Companion The companion is only permitted to be kept by the creator or the heiress and is there to simply be around and keep the amazon company. Before the beast tamer can hand the pet over she must train the animal to obey every command. Breeds: The animal can be big or small, cat or dog it's really up to the amazon. Traits: If going through CAS you can choose any except territorial (cats) or aggressive (dogs) Hunter These pets are permitted to be kept by the warrior, shaman, explorer and gatherers. These animals are there to hunt for there masters and need to be trained to hunt and obey every command by the beast tamer. Breeds: The shaman and gatherers are allowed a cat or large dog preferably a breed that are known to be good hunters. The warrior or explorer are only allowed a large dog, again preferably a breed that is known for hunting. Traits: Hunter and adventurous is a must but you can pick a third (as long as it doesn't conflict). The Warriors are different as their pet has to have hunter and aggressive and you may choose the third. Worship These pets are to be cared for and looked after by the priestesses. The pet must in some way connect with the goddess and unlike the other animals is not trained or cared for by the beast tamer. Breed: Any, as long as it aligns with the goddess (i.e. Nature Goddess represented by the fox) Traits: Any, this animal is the physical embodiment of the goddess so they are already perfect. !!Island Living Update!! With this new ep your amazons will have a whole new world to live in as well as a new life state fit for your amazons. Your Amazons should be put into the Mua Pel'am hood as it has the largest lot available and is the most deserted allowing privacy for your tribe. Mermaid only Amazons So, with the introduction of mermaids comes the opportunity for mermaid amazons. For a mermaid tribe you will need two things to begin with and that is a creator and mermadic kelp. The creator will need to be a mermaid and will only be able to take in amazons after she has collected mermadic kelp (how you do this is your choice). The creator will choose who is blessed with the gift of mermadic kelp and it's up to you how this is judged. It can be due to an amount of time with the tribe or how much they've done for the tribe. You could simply give the kelp as soon as they enter the tribe. Slaves are not allowed to become mermaids as they have not earned such a gift. Off the Grid With the new lot trait, it is recommended that the tribes live off the grid (this is also available within the base game). This gives more for slaves and gatherers to do so be aware that this will create a more challenging game. It does also help that fishing is now far more in depth, so the gatherers are now more important than ever. Island Caretaker So, with the new amazon location comes a challenge of protecting the land. The caretaker is the one to make sure Sulani is kept clean and looked after. She makes sure the local wildlife is happy and the plants are thriving (she and the gatherer are to work closely together). She is the only one permitted to find shells and treasure and she has the greatest knowledge of what can be taken and what needs to be left alone. Traits: Child of the Ocean & Child of the Island Skills: Logic More to come... Note: The grand high meeting can be done without outdoor retreat. The warrior can be done without the Vampire GP.
