#BACC info

[melsie-sims]

Welcome to New SimNation!

In this BACC, I'm attempting to go back to my roots by playing the game the way I used to when my Simblr started taking off — minus a lot of mods and almost all of my CC.

I will be following the rules by PurzelSims exactly as they are written here and will be using the spreadsheet they provide here to keep track of my progress.

Another lot owned by the Brokejaws! This time, by Ayizan. For a knowledge sim, the flow of information is important. Plus, it allows me to mess around with this postal mod.

🖊️Household Summaries

James: Hartley starts off the season by going on a date with Alta to the new local community park. They woohooed at the park and Alta had roll a marriage want but Hartley didn't share the same sentiment. Both Amara and Skye learned some new toddler skills back at home. Avery had also gone on a date of her own with Creed to the park as well. Marley found out she was pregnant by none other than Hartley himself, she soon gave birth to a boy named Logan. At the end of the season, Hartley, Marley, Skye, and Logan move out into the Cohen's new home as the James household was getting too crowded(and a little toxic).

Montague: The Montague's start off the season with Alta getting a romantic want for Wylie but that honestly wasn't going to go anywhere. Wylie got two promotions this season and Alta gave birth to a baby boy named Hawk. Wylie throws a party and invites over a few of the neighbors and Alta and Hartley snuck off during the party to have a little woohoo. Unfortunately Alta suffered from a miscarriage and immediately told Hartley the news and he stayed the night to take care of her and Hawk. Soon Hawk ages up into a toddler and Alta starts thinking about the family she'd love to have and it gets her thinking on if it's worth it with Hartley as she raises Hawk.

Langston: Laurel continues prepping for her home business for her paintings at the beginning of the season. The house is a handful with two toddlers and one soon to be toddler but she manages to push through. Tyler soon ages up into a toddler and Laurel opens up the home business for the first time and sells almost all of her paintings. Later in the season, she gets to talking with Wren about adopting a kid and hopefully that can happen when they get some more space. On the final day, Halo reaches level 5 of the Politics career.

Vance: Creed joins Laurel in opening up a home business, but he's selling items he made right at his doorstep. He gets a good business booming and a good review from the townie critic but some drama goes down while he's making sales and Dylan is manning the register. Alta felt betrayed and hurt by Hartley's public romantic efforts towards Marley and ended things right there for most of Ghoulcrest to witness. Creed does lose a star from Alta because of it but he did sell everything. At the end of the season, Dylan and Creed get to talking about their love lives and both of them decided it's better to move in with their respective partners. Creed moves in with Avery and Halo and Xavier move in with Dylan.

Jett: Rosa has an interesting ROS at the start of the season and is tasked with fighting Alta but before all that can happen, Rosco ages up into a toddler. Rosa decides to host a party for all to witness either the greatest fighting achievement or the biggest fighting loss of her life. Alta ends up winning and Rosa owes her 4,600 simoleons. Sometime through the season both girls get sick with the flu and struggle to get better as they share close quarters and spend a lot of time together. This does unlock a position in the Medical career and Francesca works on getting into that position.

Glassbury BaCC - Be'linn household

I can't help but feel really awkward when it comes to storytelling, lore and stuff, but here goes:

"After what felt like eons working in the depths of the Sixam Space Agency, Ka'aico was finally promoted from Paper Pusher to Colonizer, receiving a one-in-a-lifespan opportunity to move to Earth with his little sister to found a colony from scratch. If he succeeds, he may even be granted clearance to start a full blown invasion! Exciting, right? It would be, if he hasn't been warming up more and more to the alien species on the planet and having profane thoughts of (gasp!) assimilating into their society and living peacefully. To make matters worse, he's also stuck with his two good-for-nothing younger brothers who sneaked into his ship. Could the Be'linns and the group of simpletons, outcasts and naive alien obsessed sims make it all work?"

(Anyway, don't get used to this, I'm not really into storytelling, but the nhood can't just pop from nowhere. Also, I'm not a native speaker)

As you can tell, I didn't allow myself extra funds for decorations and landscaping this time around: we're doing things the hard way. Anyways, what I thought while furnishing this thing was basically that the family is in love with all the bright colors present on Earth, but don't really know what goes well with what and whatnot. They also think IKEA it's the coolest place in the world. So there's that.

I've been in love with this house for a while now, but since I don't play TS4 it's been a once sided affair until now mwahahaha

Unfortunately I cannot for the life of me find the OP/creator, so please let me know if you know who it is (since I straight up duped their lot)!

I just realised I could have added a lot more info on the sim panels lmao I need to go to bed

[kayleigh-83]

Hello, hope you are well! I've been really enjoying reading through your BACC posts and i was wondering if there is a particular set of rules you use for your BACC?

Hey, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!

I've always called Brightmaple a quasi-BACC and I have to lean reeeally heavily on the quasi! I took a couple loose rules from BACC gameplay (mostly from @deedee-sims Griffinmere) but left many out from the start.

These days I'd say it's best described as generational growth-minded rotational gameplay with a custom ruleset, but that doesn't roll off the tongue the same way.

I don't play with a tax and/or mayor system, nor do I have rules for unlocking services like fire and police and such. Community lots and subhoods are fair game for me to add as needed, whenever I like. Many of my rules are constantly evolving and being added or changed as I go along.

My most essential rules are the strictness of rotation to keep everyone's ages in sync so the generations progress evenly - every household gets played for the five day full season, every Sim gets five days of life experience per round.

I also have a no Maxis jobs rule - I find them boring, and wanted to get more comfortable with owned businesses - before this hood I had hardly touched them. So every household owns a business (in a few cases instead of an owned business a Sim might work from home ie: selling paintings, instead). Once there is an owned business in the household, then another Sim in the home can work as an employee of another business.

I also don't use the service NPC's which is I guess another nod to BACC rules - no maids, gardeners, repairpeople (using landlords for repair is OK to me, perk of apartment living to make up for all the glitches), grocery delivery (but pizza or Chinese delivery is OK). I will allow nannies when it's required like going on vacation, but for day to day child care I use the 'ask to watch kids' mod and ask a family member or friend. And police and fire dept are also OK. I guess it's just DIY when you can is the rule?

I also have some more info outlined on my Gameplay Rules page which talks a little more about specific things in how I approach day to day gameplay and population control and things like that!

After 17 rounds and getting into the third and fourth generations, these days really digging into the individual characters of my Sims is becoming top of mind for me. It can be easy to become repetitive and play out the same stories over and over after so long (I think my last rough count was about 100 playable Sims in Brightmaple's history, dead and alive) so letting their individuality come through is I think essential for keeping gameplay fresh and interesting.

(Edited to add) I also should mention in terms of the finance system generally, I'm not strict - I allow the $20k handout. Beyond that evidence of my Sims living in a socialist utopia, my only real money rule is it has to come from somewhere. There is money that can be won from some ROS rolls, and I can "loan" them money with cheats that they have to pay back, without interest. I will also have parents buy items for their teens still living at home, to stuff in their inventory, and sell when they move out on their own as adults - essentially the parents giving their kids some money to start out with, if they can afford it. Not everyone's business is as lucrative as everyone else's, so some can't give as much.

[esotheria-sims]

This one's for you, @lunelfy! 💜

I've been sitting on your ask for a very long time, wondering how to reply. My BaCC sims don't say an awful lot (I'm lazy to write dialogue, lol), but there is this other fun worldbuilding idea I've been mulling over: Factoid sheets.

Basically, little all-in-one info dumps where I can toss any extra info that gets overlooked or goes otherwise unexplained during my gameplay. I'm still trying to come up with a format that I can stick with, but for now, I think I'd like them to be sorted by themes. The sheet above tells us a little more about the paintings adorning the walls of Whitestone Castle, which is the residence of my BaCC's royal family, the Moonfeathers.

With apologies for the ridiculous delay, I hope you enjoy! ^^

[feronaville]

i recently said i was considering slowly making lots (and sims) i build (and make) available for download, and i figured the starter homes i built for my youtube bacc would be an okie place to start! also bc these are among the very first lots i've built myself haha.

pics, info, download, n ramblings under the cut!

included are five starters, the very ones that started port taylor :^) their styles are pretty simple as my idea was to give them a bit more personality once my founders moved in and acquired enough money to renovate--i liked the idea of the starting homes all being similar like a newly built neighborhood!

a lot of my lots have small closed-off sections--they're for when i expand houses during my gameplay, stairs will go there!

i ran into some mild (i guess) hiccups as i was preparing them for upload, i've included what specifically in the info text documents with the houses that had them, but it should all be fine! just kinda annoying to me lmaoo. also included are floorplans and additional pics of the houses!

they're not cc free! not cc heavy as the furnishing is very minimal, mostly build mode stuff. also i have ultimate collection if that matters!

it took me a few tries to do it properly (it turns out that packaging lots with cc does like every recolor for a mesh you have rather than just the one recolor so i had a BLAST -sarcasm- removing all the extra stuff and tryna figure out which recolor it is specifically) so lmk if there's any issues please!

now lemme show you the houses!

Colorful Desk & Colorful Laptop

I made these for my BACC challenge, i needed more color options for the basic base game desk and the base game laptop... The original laptop needs a certain career to be unlocked I think, this one doesn’t.

More info and download under the cut:

BGC

Desk: 45 swatches from my Removable palette

Laptop: 25 swatches from my Craftling palette and 10 swatches from my Pastel Power palette

Tag me if you use it in your screenies so I can see! And feel free to contact me if there is any issues, so I can fix them. Also, if you like my content, consider buying me a coffee or asking for a commission ! It would help me a lot 💖

hazeldine bacc intro + rotation 1-1 pt.1

hai guys im starting an eras (kind of) themed bacc!!

it's pretty much a typical bacc but all of the following items are locked to start: electricity, phones, tvs, computers, cameras, kitchen appliances, indoor plumbing, cars, all alarms, and all phone services; and they all have their own special rules to be 'invented' :-)

i might make another post with all of the rules i made but it's a lottt so im not gonna do that here! + this post is already gonna be super long

here is our founder henrietta hazeldine !!!!

her traits are adventurous, loves the outdoors, ambitious, lucky, and nurturing (should i also show their personality points when showing info abt them?)

she ran from the village she was from with only 4000 simoleons to start off her new life in this uninhabited neighborhood that she named Hazeldine , after herself of course

here is her little house to start !! the plants in front are from the sun&moon mod spice of life and the roses might be from a different one of their mods i cant remember :t

you can see the inside of the "house" with this picture of bald mr. humble :p i have no idea why hes bald now lmfao idk what happened hes always bald now

the birdwatching pic is literally stunning but that stupid stinky thing(???) is in the background

she was talking to craig ray and as you can see by the memories it really was not going well like at all LMFAO

since no phones i had to wait for him to walk back by the house and then i like immediately tried to have him move in and apparently that was the wrong move

craig ray didnt walk back to the house (actually until after she got married) and so she ended up meeting this jason guy and they really needed to start moving things along so they started dating and got married in ten minutes!!

baby bump!!!!!

bigger baby bump!!

our sweet babies were born!! and a set of twins :D meet wilma and jack hazeldine <3

they grow up so fast!!!!

i didnt get like any pics of them as toddlers ): but heres this , they were such cuties

man they really Do grow up so fast

look at the babies :P

heres their traits: (sorry for switching where the text is its being annoying D:)

wilma - shy, genius, lucky

jack - social butterfly, athletic, loves the outdoors

updated house pics :P the easel is mostly jacks, his oth is sports but he lovesss to paint

welcome to hazeldine's handmades!!!!! jason has a gold sewing badge so heres where that goes to !! this also means we unlocked another cas!!!

however this part doesnt end here (completely at least) bc i needed their week to get back to monday morning . the households not being in sync would drive me nuts

oo also heres jason's traits, they're randomized

no sense of humor, star quality, lucky, night owl, light sleeper (that shit is aggravating)

rrrrr only 30 pics allowed per post buut im almost done soo

part 2 :)

🖊️Household Summaries

James: The James household welcomes Skye into the household and soon enough Amara as well. Things are a little tense at the start between Hartley and the girls due to ROS and Avery happily gives her attention all to Creed who readily accepts it. They decide to go steady but Avery still isn't sure if she wants to continue things with Hartley but then decides to end things because of jealousy from witnessing Hartley and Marley being romantic. The girls age up into toddlers near the end of the season and with Avery being angry at both Hartley and Marley, all positions in the Law career unlock.

Montague: Wylie found a position in the Law Enforcement career which is a great help for him and Alta. ROS makes him invite over Halo and during that time, Alta becomes best friends with her and plumbing and electricity get unlocked. Alta and Hartley get close through a surprise booty call and she wounds up pregnant from it. By the end of the season, Wylie is progressing fast through his career and reaches level 3!

Langston: Halo unlocks community lots and townies by reaching level 4 of the Politics career! This also unlocks home businesses which is great for a few sims in the town who have been wanting to start one! She did end up getting demoted from a chance card right after but that changes nothing. Wren gives birth to a boy named Tyler and in that same night, Xavier ages up to a toddler.

Vance: The Vance household are the first to visit the Ghoulcrest Community Park. They spend some time together and meet a few of the new townies in the neighborhood. Creed starts his home business and sells a few things and reaches Rank 1 by the end of the season. The boys ended up getting robbed by the same burglar that robbed the Montague's last season.

Jett: Rosa starts off the Winter season finding out she's pregnant by Francesca. She gives birth to a baby boy named Rosco and they ended up getting robbed just like the Vance household did...from the same burglar and he takes a lot more from the girls than he did from everyone else he robbed.

⚠️Under Construction⚠️

Welcome! So happy to have you here! I'm Arti, a sims 2 & 3 player. This blog will be mainly Sims 2 content(despite me posting the Sims 3 versions of these towns here - my sims 3 tumblr is @simsreaper). The links below will take you to the individual pages of each save with my gameplay info, rotation & family trees!(family trees are being updated as I play each household and get pictures of the sims)

-I've done the scripted events for Sims 2 and using them as a guide for the Sims 3 but also doing what I want/what my sims want, both games will have different things happening, I'm not expecting them to be the same.
