College shenanigans at my newly designed Brichester House.

living and dying or something idk ive never played sims 4

unedited below the cut because my preset was fighting me today

[agena87]

Ah. Apparently, while I was playing the Bjergsen-Münch household, both Mallory and Patina had their baby. I'll need to go see what the game decided to name them (and probably change it). Also, for some reason, Geoffrey (who is ENGAGED with Patina) had moved in with a random woman?! Why? He's not that kind of man.

I don't understand why my game keeps doing that, I have disabled autonomy for my households when I'm not playing them, and yet... autonomous pregnancies/relationships/moves/whatever still occur.

Anyway, here are the infant versions of the Münch triplets (Louise, Gabriel & Thomas):

[andeleisha]

I’ve never been very good at “playing” the Sims, I tend to be more of a builder. I have a hard time not micromanaging everything to maximize my Sims time, which ends up not being very fun and I don’t know what to do after I fulfill an aspiration. I’ve never been able to play more than three generations – once my original Sims died I was never sure what to do with their kids!

Enter the Decades Challenge – this got my interest because I’d get to build a new house and have a new story/new goals for each generation. I decided to play on “Short” lifespan to get through as many generations as I can.

And boy has it been CHAOS! I really enjoyed playing the 1890s – making my Sims self-sufficient through their farm was super rewarding, but it was a LOT of work, especially with livestock. By the time I had a second kid on the way, I was so overwhelmed I accepted that annoying lady’s call to come help out with my toddler and soon to be newborn. BUT SHE PROMPTLY DIED AND GAVE EVERYONE A SAD MOODLET FOR THREE DAYS! JFC.

The 3 day sad moodlets has been a big theme in this gameplay – the short lifespan means that relatives and friends are constantly dying, and it's a real bummer trying to get Sims to be productive around that. But I suppose that’s the point of experiencing time through this challenge – sad things happened, and you had to get on with life anyway.

I started in Henford-on-Badgley in 1890 with Ben and Felicity Merriman, and then moved to Chestnut Ridge in 1900 with my heir Philip who was a champion Endurance rider (going for a kind of American-dustbowl feel) and the second generation I was hoping for lots of boys, because I knew they’d be going to war. Four pregnancies – Boy, Boy, Girl….TWIN GIRLS!!

The first son Thomas didn’t survive the draft. (Soo…Sims killed with MCC don’t get gravestones?) Son number 2 William is off at war now, while his wife, Constance née Villareal, is living in Windenburg with his mother, Kylee née Bjergsen. His sisters Daisy, Rose, and Lily, have all married and moved out (two out of three husbands survived the draft). BUT!!! While I was getting the War House all set up, I forgot to disable neighborhood stories for my main household, and 1900 Heir Philip DIED while I was off screen! BUT NOT BEFORE GETTING HIS WIFE PREGNANT ONE LAST TIME. Another girl. Poor Kylee. Since pregnancy pauses aging, after five pregnancies she’ll be a whole two weeks younger than her husband. She’s not even an elder yet! She’s raising her last daughter Violet alongside her two grandsons Harry and Louis, who sandwich Violet in age.

I’m really looking forward to 1920. I’m going to totally break the challenge rules and make fizzy juice and nectar to sell at my speakeasy. Does anyone know if there is a way (maybe a mod?) to make a Cop-type character, who will go all Crumplebottom on people they see drinking?

I already want to play through the challenge again – maybe on Normal Lifespan haha. And I’ve always been wary of CC having had too many bad experiences in the Sims 3, but I think I’d like to get some more appropriate period clothing, heh. And it seems like the Life Tragedies mod would add some cool realism too? I’d love any recommendations for appropriate clothing or mods!

I interrupt your regularly scheduled Schuyler posts to introduce you to the newest Schuyler tot. 

Meet Thomas!

[bekindtoyourself-darling]

Bekindtoyourself-darling’s ‘just make it better’ save file v.2 - Snowy Escape Update

This is an update to my save file in which Snowy Escape has been updated. Not all lots have been changed or changed majorly as some I personally believe are already very nice. But some have been updated, some have had minor or major changes. The sims have also been updated.  While the original intent is for this save file to be played with cc for the sims, there is an option for cc free sims, but be aware they won't look as good as their cc'd counterparts. I would recommend default skin or default eyes at the least as this helps update their look majorly without the need for a ton of cc. There are three versions to this save file. These versions are:

CC Free Buildings, but CC’d Sims (You can find the cc lists under the cut, most sims have the same CC.) (This is labelled as the CC save)

CC Free Buildings and Sims (This is labelled as the No CC save)

Buildings Only. No Sims.  (This is labelled as the No Sim save)

This means you can pick the one right for you. If you want my cc’d versions of the sims which you can look at if you go through my sims tag then you can go through the cc lists and download all the cc. CC Lists are all linked below. While some sims have a lot, most sims have basic cc like skin details and default eyes, most of the cc is the same. While each household has a cc list a lot of those cc lists are identical.  You can find all the CC lists linked below.

Equally if you work without cc or don’t want the hassle of downloading more cc you can get the cc free sim version or if you want a completely empty world save there’s a version with no sims at all.

Please bear in mind that I have all the packs, although I do not have the new kits. This is a save file that uses all the packs and uses them in different worlds. You might find things missing from builds if you don’t have all packs! You might also find items missing off of sims such as hairs and clothes!

I have gone through and added relationships for sims. There are some sims who are completely new and some sims have relationships we might remember from sims 2!

If you use the save and take screenshots etc. I’d love to be tagged so I can see you enjoy it and using the sims and the builds!

I have also sorted out an issue with the bathroom in the Strangerville bar, it is now big enough for your sims to go into and use! If you notice any other issues when playing with my save file do let me know so that I can fix them!

So IDK if this is a challenge yet or not but either way may I present the...

Townie Baby Challenge

Using a matriarch (or any sim that can get pregnant) try to have a baby with every single pre made townie in the game and raise those children to adulthood without them dying or being taken away. As more packs come out more townies and babies will be had.

Rules

Must have at least 1 baby with every pre made sim. This doesn’t count sims from the trailer on the gallery that gurus or maxis post. These sims must be already in the world and in everyone’s game.

Cheats can be used to change pregnancy ability of different sims.

Must start with average funds and build up house from there.

Cannot have a baby with the same sim twice.

Cannot marry until matriarch becomes and elder.

If child dies or is taken away, another baby with that child’s parent is needed. (If you have twins and one dies no need to do this).

Matriarch cannot get a job.

Toddlers must get all skills to level 3 to age up.

Children must get two skills to level 5 and get an A in school.

Teens must get an A in school and have two skills at level 5.

Skills should relate to parents traits. (Parents from a certain pack’s children should have skills from that pack).

Must wait until underage sims age up to young adult to have a baby with them.

If matriarch dies before finishing this then youngest daughter (or impregnable child) completes the challenge.

Townies currently to woohoo

(As more packs come out and townies added this will update)(* indicates underage)

Controversial Local Celebrity Ingrid Gorman Dies Aged 72

Elsa Bjergsen, Senior Reporter

The Windenburg Times-Gazette

Few names in Windenburg are more recognizable than that of Ingrid Katlyn Gorman, local mega Mom of seventeen. Gorman was heavily associated with the  Newcrest First Baptist Church, which is headed by right-wing Pastor Jacob Fleming. Gorman’s tenth child, daughter Patience Grace, married the Flemings’ son Jon Edwards when Patience was eighteen. Ingrid’s second child, Josiah Thomas, later married the Flemings’ oldest daughter, Laura. Josiah and Laura are currently expecting their second son after three years of marriage. Meanwhile, Patience Grace is 24 and recently announced that she is pregnant with her fifth child. She will turn 25 shortly before her due date, and celebrate 7 years of marriage around the same time. 

The Gorman family around the time Ingrid married. Ingrid’s brother Thaddeus became pastor at their father’s church after Luther’s death, but a rift over modesty rules led to Ingrid joining the Newcrest First Baptist Church.

A family photo of Ingrid as a child.

Ingrid Katlynn Snyder was born in Mount Korembi, where her father, Luther, had planted an offshoot of the Windenburg-based Bible Baptist Church. Ingrid was the oldest of ten children, though she married when her mother, Katlyn, was still pregnant with #9. Ingrid married Stetson Gorman on her twentieth birthday. Stetson ran a small woodworking business and taught at the school attached to her father’s church, Bible Baptist Academy. She gave birth to their first soon, Ezekiel, nine months later. 

Like her parents before her, Ingrid was an extremely devout Christian who eschewed birth control, homeschooled her children, and gave birth to her last child at 44. She expected her children to enter supervised courtships rather than date, which meant they could not hold hands with their spouses before engagements or kiss before their wedding day. Including Patience Fleming’s current pregnancy, Ingrid has 33 grandchildren already, and will likely have well over 100 by the time her youngest child, Miracle Joy, stops having children. 

Ingrid was buried beside her husband in a family plot in Evangelist Christian Cemetery in Willow Creek.

Many doctors interviewed for this piece opined that Ingrid’s large number of pregnancies--which also included two miscarriages. 

“My sister was lied to about the effects that pregnancies can have on the body throughout her whole life, mostly by her own family,” commented her brother Nathaniel, who broke away from their family to attend college and become a physician. He is now retired. “But even when the effects started to catch up with her during her last few pregnancies, she refused to consider stopping. I hope she can find peace and that her children won’t feel pressured to take the same path she did.”

Ingrid was pregnant with her 16th child when her daughter-in-law, Emily Anne, was pregnant with Ingrid’s first grandchild.

Ingrid and Stetson Gorman’s vow renewal, which took place shortly before Stetson passed away.

It seems that Gorman’s children are split on whether their mother is a role model worth emulating. Ingrid’s seventh and eighth children, twins Evangeline and Camden, have both spoken out against their family in recent years. Evangeline--who has two children and recently graduated with a masters in piano performance from the University of Britechester--has left her parents’ church, and Camden eloped to marry a woman who does not share his parents’ views.

But Patience Grace--along with her other siblings--wants to continue her mother’s legacy.

“She was the greatest woman I’d ever known,” Patience told me between tears during an interview. “She was Godly until the end.”

Carrington Catchup: Duke and Duchess of Bilchester 

The past five years have been very busy for the Duke and Duchess of Bilchester! 

The Duchess of Bilchester began Moms For Moms shortly after the royal wedding, which supports mothers across Carrington and provides resources to single mothers and less fortunate families. This news was accompanied news that the Duke and Duchess of Bilchester were expecting their first child together! 

The couple welcomed a daughter (and the country’s future Queen!), Princess Anastasia of Bilchester, just months later. She was christened just weeks later, with her godparents as Miss Jessica Bjergsen, Dante, Viscount Binoir, Mr. Lucas Munch, Mrs. Louise Patrick, TH Hannah Strathern and Alexander, Viscount Ravensburg. 

But Anastasia isn’t the only child that the couple have welcomed in the past 5 years! 2 years ago, the couple welcomed their second child, Prince Michael of Bilchester.

 He was christened 2 months later with his godparents as Mr. Thomas Holland, Mrs. Mariela Crandall, Mr. Ryan Bjergsen, Mr. George Hallon-Zhao and Miss Violet Austen. 

While the couple presently already have an “heir” and “spare” respectively, sources close the couple say that they want more children. “They’ve talked about children for a while, and they both want a large family. I’m certain that Michael is not their last child.” 

In the meantime, we’ll just keep enjoying cute family photos like this one!
