generation 3 ↳ subject #6: pepper

Generation 3 is gonna be different, and I want to put it out here right off the bat because I think it's gonna be a little confusing as I start. I've been through a sort of style crisis (not really a crisis, I still like what I put in this blog) and so I decided to go for a different path of editing and playing, at least for now. I feel like these two styles clash together and it's not gonna be so cohesive anymore but I hope y'all will still enjoy it as much as I do. The main point though is trying to put more quality content this year even at the expense of frequent updates (even putting lepacy aside, I want to post more of my side projects including other sims and builds).

One thing I'd also like to point out is that during this generation for the first time we'll be following all Strange sibilings. Pepper is definitely going to be the main focus and it's her children that will be eligible to become heir for this lepacy but quite honestly I'm obsessed with all the girls and I want to do them justice for a while yet :)

Legacy superlatives tag game

tytyty for the tag @simsandgiggles!! i'm currently on gen 3 of my lepacy but like. a lot. has happened. spoilers for gen 3 and such oopsies I tag: @ticklemerainbows @simspaghetti, @hazely-sims, @miss-may-i and anyone else whose been playing a legacy and wants to yap about it 💕

Favorite heirs

Venture Minnow, generation 3 (ambitions). Yes Ven is gonna be the heir! I love them so much you have no idea. The iconic mushroom beret. The yellow hair. Their quest to win over their high school crush. The second they aged up into a kid and wished for a dishwasher I was sold. I'm so excited for them and the simbots they'll make.

Holly Minnow, generation 2. She was SO fun as a teenager and even more fun as a ya. Super fun to dress in cas. Getting cursed by her first mummy and getting the cure for it an hour before her trip ended. Overcoming her loser trait and winning martial arts fights. Her romance with Zhan and her overall style. Absolute icon. I'm gutted I couldn't properly finish her generation and get her ltw done, she was ONE TOMB AWAY.

Favorite spouses

Connor Frio, Gen 1. My first ever Sunset Valley premade spouse and he was everything. Such a sweetheart- autonomously proposing marriage to Sable as a townie, how caring and soft he was towards his wife and kids. Always wishing to hug Sable and read books to his kids. A loner and unflirty but he was the sweetest husband ever. and the world's cutest grandpa. Had some iconic oopsie moments in gen 2. I will always be fond of Connor Frio now.

Zhan Su, Gen 2. He was so so so so sweet when Holly first visited Shang Simla. He would call her to ask on dates, invite her over at night- it was a slowburn, and she finally rolled to kiss him on her last night of vacation. and he was such! a good! I got to explore different careers with him and have fun with martial arts, and I really really like his genetics. He was always autonomously taking care of all the kids and jumping into Holly's arms.

Favorite spare

Honestly? Moby Minnow, gen 2. If he was born earlier he would've had a clear shot at being heir, being the only sim to inherit Connor's ginger hair and having the brave trait for wa. He got a WA partner before the actual heirs did as a teenager during a trip to France, and became an iconic diva. Love that for him.

Favorite side characters

Cornelia Goth. Became besties with Sable, was distraught after Gunther became a plantism and randomly showed up at the doorstep at 3am announcing her feelings to Sable. Nothing happened autonomously after that but sometimes I wonder.

The Freezer Bunny gnome watching tv every night.

Dean Alto was Brooke's bestie and I honestly wondered if they would ever end up together, but they never did- but he was a really cool friend and always showed up to her parties and called to chat.

Mishaps during your legacy

A Riverview ghost possessing Pascal and attempting to murder Sable!!!! She (oddly luckilly) had the unlucky trait and came back but. Oh my god. Afterwards Pascal stalked the grocery store and art gallery until 6am and it was so creepy.

Not being able to bring the extended family to Twinbrook because the game kept crashing no matter what I did. I really wanted Brooke's family and Sable to come along :(

Largest number of children

Technically gen 1 since Connor had an oopsie alien baby which puts them at 5 kids.

Any surprises

The randomizer mod having Grandpa Connor ask if he could move in with Holly and Brooke, then as a roomie he became a mummy, got abducted, was secretly alien preggo during the trip to France and the Minnows came home to his mummy butt having an alien baby. and then nraas had Sable immediately divorce him. Incredible series of events.

A bunch of other stuff. Connor's townie proposal, how nice the ea houses actually were when you decorated them (I really liked the Frio house), the unicorn in egypt, how amazing Twinbrook is, surprise pet adoptions (Map the squirrel and Cedar the puppy), Susie Broke randomly burning to death and getting rezzed by Grim outside of school, finding a heart shaped pink diamond in the freaking consignment store by accident, the WA tombs (especially the Sphynx), Yumi Sekemoto OUTLIVING Gunther Goth and on-off dating Jared Frio.... what an icon

Favorite family pet

Who else than the legendary tiberium king... Rocky Road! Connor had him as a puppy while he was a townie and I decided to keep him despite pets not being a thing in those earlier gens- and I was so glad I did. This dog. THIS. DOG. Found SO many space rocks and tiberium and made the Minnows go from 1k in funds to rich overnight. He was also a sweetie pie and I will never ever forget him. Rocky was the first dog I really got to have in ts3 since other attempts at having a dog in households corrupted the ai for me, but Rocky was the goodest boy and I love seeing his happy ghost haunt the gen 3 house in Twinbrook.

List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore ♥♥♥

Thanks for this ask! For this, I'm going to go with Lain Amsel, the founder of my LEPacy. Maybe this is a bit of a cop-out, because I haven't got that far in my two legacies, but I stand by it.

I really like the way she looks, I think this was the first time I really experimented with the way my sim looks, rather than just defaulting to the usual look.

She had such as messy love life and I really enjoyed playing her and her rough start. It made me really appreciate the base game.

FACTS:

Lain's parents were often gambling and wasting money, something that really informed the way Lain views money and life. She ran away the moment she was old enough, not wanting to be dragged into their lifestyle.

Because of the above statement, Lain has a lot of anxiety and desperately craves stability and normality, something she doesn't have in common with her youngest daughter...

Lain might have actually had a good relationship with George the Arsonist if I hadn't installed a mod called NPCRomance that allows sims outside the active household to make the moves on sims they are attracted to. George was really into Lain, unfortunately, the mod made him hit on her before they even really had a relationship and Lain didn't like that...

Lain's favourite food is hotdogs. It's a bit of a guilty pleasure from childhood.

Although they broke up, Lain remained friends with Hunter Cottoneye and, in fact, remained his only friend. Because of this, she was the one that got all of his money when he passed. About 60,000 simoleons if I remember correctly.

Sims 3 Lepacy Gen 1 : Chapter 1 - Just getting started

Eileen purchased a beautiful lot in the same area where Gobias Koffi and the Wolfs live. I built her just a very small starter house, which we will expand on once Eileens starts saving up some money, and perchance has someone to live with ;) Eileen also got wants to plant seeds and learn gardening. She's in fact rolling a lot of wants to learn skills like athletic, handiness, fishing, cooking etc. I find the best way to learn lots of skills is to get the Sims Store tablet and have the sim listen to a tabcast while they do other activities, so Eileen's definitely going to get that once she gets a bit of cash. Maybe it's slightly cheaty but she's not going to have as much time if and when she has kids!

Eileen got a job in the Military career as she wished and her boss is Erin Miller who will hopefully become a friend in the future. Eileen prowled the town and met some new people; namely new friends Ayesha Ansari and Nancy Landgraab. I wanted her new friends to also be sims that I haven't played around with before. I did sort of cheat and have Ayesha also join the Military and ditch her job in the Criminal career bc a) she has similari traits to Eileen and the Military would suit her better and b) I wanted Eileen to have another coworker and the Military always has so few workers. They just didn't derserve Ayesha!

In addition to making friends with Ayesha and Nancy, Eileen also met Hank Goddard who she had the hots for! She thought he was a 10/10 and didn't meet any other guys who interested her. Now I play wants based even though I might have some ideas for what I wish my sims to do. But ultimately my sims get to date who they want to even if I know they aren't well suited. Hank for example is enganged to Pauline Wan at the start of a new save but they will usually break up pretty quickly due to story progression, and they did split this time around as well. This happened on day two or so and Hank moved into the Mosquito Cove lol. I don't use the EA attraction system but a new attraction mod which I'm testing out with this save. It seems so far to be pretty similar to the EasyVarietyAttraction mod I was using previously.

Eileen rolled the wants to make friends with Hank, go on a date with him and kiss him for the first time so that's what we will pursue in the next chapter! Hank probably won't be her partner for life since he has the commitment issues trait. And on top of that he wants to be the boyfriend of 10 different sims. 10! Which means Eileen would only be number two which is unfourtunate. But hey not everyone meets their soulmate immediately at age 21! Right!?!

ps. I don't have that many photos of these first chapters bc I didn't decide to document this Lepacy until much later in my save. So it will hopefully get a bit better later on.

To my Sims 3 friends!

Hey folks, good morning/afternoon/evening, hope you're having a good time.

So, I'm 99 % sure I do want to play the bachelor challenge with Michael this summer. I might restart my mods folder and go light cc but we'll cross that bridge when we get there. I know, shocker. Nika wants to get rid of her beloved cc? What? Are you alright?

I'm currently trying to figure out how many people I'd like to accept for the BC!

To recap, Michael is the heir in my Sims 3 lepacy, his will be the Showtime generation and the winner of the BC will be his spouse, naturally. He/him, bisexual, any gender welcome, no occults (sorry, it hurts me too but we'll have the Supernatural gen for that). He's going to be a singer.

I know some people said they would love to join but they don't know how to export sims from ts3, so no worries, I can show you that too when we get there. In fact I'd say it's easier than ts4, actually. Well, gallery is superior to sims 3 exchange, but we don't talk about sims 3 exchange here, that thing bricked my game ages ago 😂 Sharing .sim files is easier than sharing tray files in ts4 is what I meant.

Last but not least, may I ask you to share this around? I'm out of the loop with simblr again.

[puppysim]

I decided to start a lepacy cuz that looks like it could be fun! I'm following the rules by @anneliesembsims. The first gen will be a combo of Base Game & Spa Day. Introducing Maki Ackerman (named after my 2 fav anime baddies). She just moved into Oasis Springs in a nice lil house I found off the gallery and has a whopping §1 to her name. Maki's stats:

Traits: Cheerful, active (she just earned that one), vegetarian, romantically reserved, spa membership

Aspiration Goal: Inner Peace

Likes: Mindfulness, exercise, yoga

Dislikes: Cooking, non-mindful sims

My goals for this gen is to obv complete all the goals outlined in the lepacy. Once I complete her Wellness aspiration I'll then switch it to a base game aspiration (idk which one I'm feeling yet).

Also trying to playing with minimal cc bc my laptop is crying so let's see how this goes

Simblr Gratitude: Gameplay Edition

I missed Simblr Gratitude Day because I was so busy with college- I'm sorry!😫I hope it's not too late for me to join in!

This Simblr Gratitude post will be all about gameplays and my personal favorites to binge read over and over again. I will be including Sims 3 and 4 gameplays, but feel free to reblog if you know some great Sims 2 ones as well!

Shoutout to @armoricaroyalty for creating Simblr Gratitude Day and to @simblrpositivity for being such a ray of sunshine in our lovely community💕And here we go!

Sims 3

@thepettymachine you can't discuss TS3 gameplays without mentioning thepettymachine. Her gameplays are pretty, funny, and engaging- I've read through the Osbourne Legacy way too many times🤣

@pixelbots another iconic TS3 simblr. STUNNING pictures, too- I wish my game could look that great! The Zodiac Legacy is also one of my favorite TS3 gameplays.

@muckleberri absolutely beautiful sims and pictures, and awesome gameplay! Definitely check out the Lepacy, Maxim isn't the nicest sim out there but man is he hilarious.

@simspaghetti beautiful gameplay, relatable sims, a super detailed and helpful resources page- what more could you want?

Sims 4

@sojutrait ICONIC. Similar to the Osbournes, I've binge read the Halabi Legacy more times than I can count- Ollie my beloved😍One of the few simblrs out there where I can actually see the sims as real people with distinct personalities!

@akitasimblr two words: Harper. Legacy. One of the best gameplays out there- 11 generations in the main legacy, wow! Ana is also one of the sweetest people on here too, always showing love to everyone including my little blog🤗

@pixelnrd absolutely amazing Decades Challenge. This is another one I've read through many times. Beautiful writing, storylines that make me cry, gorgeous sims.

@cyazurai adorable gameplays and such pretty sims! I'm always a fan of Not So Berry challenges, too😉

@wileyfern pretty and interesting gameplay that keeps you hooked! Definitely read through the Live for Something challenge.

@sammyshuno omg, the Sweet Legacy is one of my favorite gameplays on simblr. I can't get over the bright colors, stunning sims, and storytelling!

@plumdale beautiful gameplay and editing. It's like I'm watching a tv show!

@estah love the Random Legacy- Atlas is one of the prettiest sims I've ever seen!😍

@tulipsimss I've read through the Random Legacy so many times. Her gameplays are just so pleasing to look at and manage to tell interesting stories just through pictures and moodlets (which isn't easy)!

@cinamun trust me, read Things Fall Apart. AMAZING storytelling. You'll be laughing, crying, and wanting to jump through the screen and meet these sims because they feel so real!

Both

@nikatyler one of the best NSB challenges on simblr. Ross, I love you!😍I love how she plays both TS3 and TS4 and adds storytelling too!

@berrysweetboutique read the TS3 story Splash of Color! Iconic, sweet, funny, it has it all, and she even retold the story in Sims 4 as well! I remember reading this story years ago and it definitely inspired my own storytelling skills.

Today is my simblr's 2nd birthday and I couldn't be happier to be on simblr. Everyone is so sweet, talented, and welcoming to newer/smaller blogs like mine and I've already made a few friends! I hope to find many more amazing gameplays in the next year. Thank you all for making simblr a fun place and Happy Holidays!❄🥰

Cartwright Lepacy - Generation 2 - Naomi

I think I'm finally stepping back into my lepacy save this winter. I'm feeling really inspired to play again and I 100% want to reach the next generation. I'll start by posting some super old screenshots from July last year which is crazy to think about. I have some newer from March too but it's been a hot minute since I played this save.

I've spent the morning of this grey and cold Saturday updating all my mods and downloading some new build/buy sets from my favorite creators.

I actually think that the announcement for the new EP is what has inspired me to get back into playing finally. I'm really looking forward to build and play with the new pack when it is released.

Also, keep your eyes peeled for a giveaway when the pack is released!

Now let's see what Naomi and her family has been up to!

[moonfromearth]

As a "sim parent" (sim maker) we shouldn't have favorites - but we do. Post your favorite sim baby (the golden child) and least fav. Pass it on!

Tysm for sending this igglemouse!! I have so many favorite sims I could really go on forever about them lol 😆

Anyway, on to the main event!

Favorite: Nicholas Gorman

Honestly, Nicholas is to blame for me loosing steam in his family's gameplay because I loved playing his story so much. Pre-Corey he was definitely my Number 1 favorite sim hands down no contest. 😆

The Gorman family was almost like a lepacy in that I basically played a new generation around the time a new pack was released or I bought one so they were very much meant to be used to utilize the features of a pack. Nicholas got to experience both University and Snowy Escape and it was so much fun! I do have a few regrets about his gameplay though and it's that I didn't finish an aspiration, reach the top of the teaching career, or climb Mt. Komorebi with him. I kind of wish I could go back and play his generation over now 😭

Least Favorite: Willow Root

Okayokayokay least favorite is a stretch because I love Willow and there's a lot I really enjoy about her gameplay and story. I loved the complicated relationship she and her mom had and getting to explore High School Years with her was awesome!

However, like I did with my last answer (which I was going to link but can't find right now), she's more of a least favorite only because I feel like her gameplay/story could have been done better by me. After high school I played through her entire time at university and... It just didn't feel right and I'm not really sure why 😅

I actually had an idea to bring her into another challenge but... Whether or not that happens we'll have to wait and see 😏 It would be really nice though if I could get a second chance with her (plus I miss the Root family sm!! 😭).

Base Game Fun - An introduction to Some Kind of Lepacy

Never in my life did I think I'd play a sim who would fall in love with a gym bro named Moose. But here we are 🤣

I've wanted to create a starting save file for some time now, but I always over complicate things. This time I decided to start with just adding in all the premades from the promotional trailers and lightly add relationships between sims that were hinted (BFF household are all friends and have just enough romance to have a romance bar between the girls and Travis, etc). And I'm currently enjoying a base game play in my new save. I added a few parts of the Relationship Pregnancy Overhaul mod as well as First Impressions to let the game (and mods) tell me who my sim would be friends with/date. And on night one she met Moose in a bar and instantly had a crush. What started as "he'd be fun for a night" has now become an engagement between the two. Moose Dubros has moves, always suave and passionate kissing, swept her right off her feet.

The sim I created is on the gallery under: jamielynnk she's base game only. Though I do use skin and eye replacements. Trying to weed myself off an overuse of CC and experience what the game has to offer.

[voidsnoise]

Yippee !! So I've been playing the Hix Completionist Challenge by @horusmenhosetix as a way to get back into 3. I've been having a lot of fun with it so far, esp since I'm playing it lepacy style and only installing packs when the gens turn over, and I wanted to try my hand at documenting gameplay this time around (because keeping a giant block of notes in my phone is not. working very well on my other lepacy,,) With the twist that I'll be drawing most of my logs because I like drawing my sims! And I run my game on kinda low-ish settings so my laptop doesn't blow up lol Without further ado, here is Ada Falcone, the politician of the future! Maybe. Probably. If she can get her finances in order. And keep it professional. And get a foothold in a new town where she doesn't know anyone and has literally no prospects. She'll be fine Traits: Commitment Issues | Childish | Charismatic | Schmoozer | Ambitious

Lifetime Wish: Leader of the Free World

Hobby Roll: Handiness Ruleset: Little Lies [Politician]

SCOREBOARD: + Move to Sunset Valley (+2 Points) + Have the Schmoozer and/or Charismatic traits (+0.5 Points) + Founder with custom multi-colored parts: +1 per eyes, hair, skin tone, make-up, clothes (+ 4 Points) CURRENT TOTAL: 6.5 Points

Gameplay pics under the read more :)

[grimfolks]

Hi! Your Sims 3 lepacy inspired me to load up the game and start my own! I'm currently in the second generation and having so much fun :) may I ask where you got Jia's hair in your introduction card for her? I'm looking forward to reading more about your save :)

Sorry for late reply! I feel like it's the first weekend since a while that I can actually do my hobbies (so also running this blog and opening sims). Glad to hear you enjoy playing sims 3, it's such an oldie game but it truly deserves the love from our simmer community, I wish more people were actively playing and sharing it. I also hope I will be able to build a queue and share more soon~

About your question, Jia's hair is from here

[isstoria]

Keeping up with the ts3 lepacy challenge I'm playing. For the world adventures expansion I choosed the Seasoned Traveler lifetime wish and it wasn't the easiest one to complete.

Generation 2 : Célia Curtisse🛫

From a young age, Célia and her brother were taught to respect their parents' expectations. It was on her 15th birthday that Célia made the decision to do what she wanted. His relationship with his mothers, Queen and Bebe, was not getting better. "Do you want to travel? Why? No, my daughter, you will stay here in Sunset Valley and you will be a doctor, that's all!" Not surprisingly, Célia became a doctor, cut ties with her family, traveled a lot, met many people who became her friends, married her best childhood friend, and had a sweet little girl.

For some, her life may be tainted by her parents' disappointment, but for her, her life is pure success, from A to Z.

[phoebe-twiddle]

Just some LEPacy housekeeping.

I finalized my new sims aspiration spreadsheet and took a week or two to update *everyone* in the LEPacy hood to their new aspirations, which also helped me iron out a few kinks in the spreadsheet, so that was good. I've also decided to rename a handful of families, making it easier to differentiate between different branches and for tagging purposes (I've already applied new tags to previous posts).

The Pinella Family (Ari) ⇢ The Favor Family. Ari married townie, Oliver, and I don't know what his last name used to be, so I picked a new one.

The Drummond Family (Evie) ⇢ The Caliente Family. Melody has moved out and Grey has passed, so it's more like Evie is living with her daughter's family than her daughter's family is living with her.

The Drummond Family (Graham) / The Drummond Family (Milly) ⇢ The Co-Op Family. Unless Milly and Major get married & move out, at which point they'll become The Mccown Family. If Wilma and Graham get married & move out, then they'll become the official Drummond Family.

The Zimmerman Family (Neena) ⇢ The Lawson Family. Neena will take her dad's first name as her last name to reduce the number of Zimmerman families there are.

The Marchand Family (Xavier) ⇢ The Morphon Family. Xavier will take Lora's name to reduce the number of Marchand families.

The Marchand Family (Peter) ⇢ The Avant Family. I have no idea what Elroy's surname used to be, so I chose one for them.

The Zimmerman Family (Chloe) ⇢ The Russell Family. I don't remember what Dahlia's surname was, so I picked a new one.

The Darling Family (Nicholas, Meredith, Brian, Noriko) ⇢ The Marchand Family. I have no idea where they picked up the Darling surname as Nicholas is a Marchand and Meredith is a Zimmerman, and there's no evidence in their memories of either marrying a Darling before each other, so they'll become the "main" Marchand branch. And while I'm changing names, I'm changing Noriko to Nora.

I've played the founding Pinella household, and university, so I'll be setting up the queue for those soon :)

[rosinquarts]

Hi, i'm Rosinquartz! I'm new to the sims 3 simblr world! I've spent a bit of last year learning about ts3 after stumbling upon a youtube lepacy series. I'm not new to the sims, though! I played the sims 2 in high school, then sims 4 in uni and still do (but I'm on a break until growing together), and now I'm playing the sims 3! Now that I feel somewhat confident, I decided I wanted to join tumblr to share my legacy family :)

Introduction:

Rosalie Carter is my founding sim. She is a bookworm, light sleeper, and easily impressed. (I forget her two other traits, whoops!) Rosalie is a wannabe investigative Journalist slowly making her way up the ladder. She works hard and spends her evening going through dumpsters and harassing townies for the latest scoop!🕵️‍♀️

She is married to townie Connor Frio, who is a stay-at-home dad and author. He works hard to take care of their kids and their kitty, too. You can see him constantly chasing their kitty around the house instead of working on his novels.

They currently have 3 children that they are barely managing to care for! Unfortunately, we have already lost one butler in the processes of raising these kids... 😱💀
