UPDATE March 2023: These will no longer be supported/updated to reshade. If you download it for reshade, things WILL look different 

_____________

Another one! lol

Requested by some lovely anons :)

I didn’t bother changing the name I originally saved it as, so that’s why it’s called what it is. I just name them randomly tbh

Anyways, SassyFrassy is a Gshade preset From a while ago, and I didn’t take any new screenshots with it which is why the previews are kinda random and all over the place. But I think you can still get the sense of what it looks like in different lighting situations.

It doesn’t white-out the UI so it’s fairly gameplay friendly. Search for and turn on ADOF if you want the depth of field shaders that are used in the wedding pic. Be aware as well, that the colours may look different depending on your monitor settings.

This is one of my fave presets now that I look back at it, so I hope you like it :)

TOU: You can of course edit/tweak the preset to your liking. Just link back here to the original and don’t take credit if someone asks about it.

Alright, have fun!

Grandpa/Grandma’s Farm Legacy

This is my first generations challenge! There might be some tweaking along the way. 🩷

Required packs:

Horse Ranch

Growing Together

Cottage Living

City Living

Eco Lifestyle

High School Years

Cats & Dogs

Seasons

Get To Work

Get Together

Snowy Escape

Get Famous

You can replace traits with other traits if you want or you don’t own all these packs. Do whatever you want, just follow the main rules.

You can download the starting lot on the gallery. The my ID is pasteliiish. It’s labeled “Grandpa/Grandma’s Farm”

Place the lot in the biggest lot in the horse ranch world. You don’t need to afford it, you can use cheats.

Move into the lot

You can start the challenge with the maximum of 500 simolians (ignore my bad spelling, it’s a made up word, okay?)

MAIN RULES

You cannot sell anything on the lot. You must make your own money. You can “clean up” the lot over time in build mode. There is a lot of debug items. :)

You can renovate the house over time. Upgrade appliances, counters, furniture, etc. the only rule for this is you cannot delete the original house. You can only add onto it.. meaning that you basically just can’t start from scratch. (You can move the house on the lot though)

Renovate the house however you’d like. Change up the outside, inside. Add more floors. Expand it.

Next to the house there is a stable with stuff for a horse and nectar making. This rule also applies to this.

WORLD SETTINGS

Make sure families can’t move or move into other houses. That’s it.

Generation #1 - The inheritance

A few years ago, you inherited your grandparent’s farm. It’s old and dinky, but you have many great memories here. You have spent summers camping here and telling stories around the fire. You have bonded with animals and the townspeople alike. And now you’re all grown up. And you’ve decided to move in. It’s.. a mess. It clearly hasn’t been taken care of in a while. Sure, it may be old and close to falling apart, but hey— you’re pretty sure you can make something great out of it.. right?

Traits:

Rancher

Animal Enthusiast

Clumsy

Generation Challenges

Complete the Expert Nectar Maker aspiration

Never have a job and make money by nectar and livestock

Have one kid (Required)

Teach your kid the horse riding skill

Expand the house to have at least another bedroom and bathroom

Max the Nectar making skill(?)

Generation #2 - The Horse Lover

Ever since you where little you have been OBSESSED with horses. Your parent has made sure you have grown up around animals and farm life. And you love it. You couldn’t be more grateful. Now, your goal is to become the greatest horse rider of all time.

Traits:

Horse Lover

Loves the Outdoors

Jealous

Generation Challenges

Complete the Championship Rider aspiration

Train horses as your job (I haven’t looked so I do not know if there’s an actual job for this, but you can train horses using the community boards around the world)

Have one-two kids (Required)

teach your kid the horse riding skill

Expand the house

Max the horse riding skill and parenting skill

Generation #3 - Chasing Fame

You have lived in Chestnut Ridge your whole life.. and frankly, you’re done with it. You want to get out of this old house. It’s so.. dirty! All you want is to be a musician in the cities and become big and famous. How hard is that to ask for? So you decide to move out. Your parent is heartbroken, but you could care less. You’re finally living the dream.. at least that’s what you think.

Traits:

Self-Absorbed

Cheerful

Music Lover

Generation Challenges

As soon as you become a young adult, move out of Chestnut Ridge and move to San Myshuno

Complete the World Famous Celebrity aspiration

Max the singing skill

“Accidentally” have a kid (required, this can be cheated or legit)

Never get married

Once your parent dies, visit your childhood home and realize that you miss it (parent death can be cheated or legit)

As an adult/elder move back into your childhood home and buy a horse and max your friendship level with your horse

Slowly lose your fame and switch to a family aspiration. You do not need to complete the aspiration.

That’s it for now. I’ll be adding more to this challenge over time, but I’m tired. Enjoy :)

I love this game

I wish in general discussion of ADHD that executive dysfunction wasn't used to just mean difficulty with task switching and task initiation.

Like, there's so much more that is a part of executive functioning! Executive functioning includes impulse control, emotional regulation, working memory, attention, awareness of time, goal formation, planning, and that's not even all of it. It's a broad catogory of cognitive processes, not just a single symptom.

ADHD symptoms do mostly fall under executive dysfunction because ADHD is an executive functioning disorder.

In general terms, it's not wrong to include difficulties in task switching and initiation in executive dysfunction! They are certainly a part of that! But oversimplifying executive dysfunction to only be task switching and initiation difficulties isn't accurate and gives an inaccurate picture of ADHD as a whole (or at least, from what I've seen, it impacts the discussion surrounding ADHD negatively).

It might just be me. idk. But discussing precise problems while calling them by a blanket term can make it hard to identify what exactly the block is. For example, if I'm having trouble getting started on a task and I just say "oh I'm struggling with executive dysfunction right now" that doesn't tell me anything about what's wrong. But if I say "I'm struggling with task initiation; I keep meaning to do it but don't know where to start" then I can think through the steps to start. Or if it's motivation, "I'm struggling with motivation" means I can think of how to overcome that. "This is overwhelming" means I can plan. "I don't want to stop what I'm doing/this is a task switching problem" means I can decide if I need to finish the task at hand or trick my brain into swapping.

(This is a separate problem but then you also have people saying execytive dysfunction is laziness or results in laziness when they are meaning that difficulty with task initiation. Even if it was true that difficulty with task initiation was laziness (it's not), saying that executive dysfunction = laziness is so incorrect. That would mean poor short term memory = laziness. That would mean hyperactivity = laziness. That would mean emotional dysregulation = laziness. And none of these are even CLOSE to true. That's another issue though.)
