The Sims 3 Expansion Legacy Challenge

I made this challenge because I wanted to experience everything in the game, so this challenge was born!

I appreciate constructive criticism.
If there are any grammar mistakes please tell me.

Please tell me if I forgot or messed up anything.


Setup

Download and use Sim Game Selector to remove any packs. (Doesn't work on mac.)
https://modthesims.info/d/499140/si...stuff-quot.html

Create your starting founder.

You can move into any lot you like.

You don't have to stay on the same lot though out the Challenge.

(General Rules)

You can use any mods that aren't to cheaty.

No CC or B&B/CAS Store Content. Gameplay items and lots are Okay.
(This challenge is about experiencing what the game has, so if you have the whole store or CC hair and clothing, you would pick that over the game.)
(DEFAULT REPLACEMENTS are fine)


No cheats that cheat gameplay to your advantage.
(No cheating needs, I forgot this was a rule and cheated my babies needs, so I failed.)

No aging sims up until day 0.

No bringing heirs back from the dead.
(You may bring any other sim back though.)

You must randomize your sims traits,
(If you have to pick a trait for a generation unlock the next pack before the teenage heir ages up to a young adult)

The next generation starts when your heir grows up into a Young adult.

You will have one main heir to the generation but you can also have secondary heirs who live with the heir.
(Secondary heirs can do anything the heir can do except produce the next heir.)

Any task you don't complete in a generation get transferred to the next generation.


LIFESPAN SETTINGS

Baby 2 days. because nooboo's are boring.

Toddler 7 days. I thought 7 days was enough time to get everything done with the little tots.

Child 12 days. When I've put my kids into after school activates they never get the trophy or whatever they get, because I've only been able to have my kids go to the school for a show or something where they get a gift a few times and my kids are always in after school activities! sorry, I been holding that in for 8 years.

Teen 15 days. I don't know why.

Young Adult 40 days. No way you could do all of this with only 21 days as a YA.

Adult 30 days. We don't want are sims to miss their 40s do we?
why does everyone think adults are 30.
40 is the big number in the real world so I'm always confused when people say "my sim's an adult now their in their 30s"

Elder 24 days. So they can meet their grand kids.

You Have now Completed the Challenge!

Hi, I would like to know something. Shouldn't we unlock the next pack when your heir turns into a teen? Only so that you can pick a trait and wish for your heir before they age up and begin the challenges. This is one of the best challenges I've done so far. It really made me fall in love with the game all over again and to see how simple it started. I hope to see updates soon.

Simmortality is doing something very similar to that on her youtube channel if anyone is interested in watching. Link to the MTS thread
She's very close to starting generation 2 now (World Adventures) and will install WA shortly before the heir ages up.

I'm hoping for a update on this challenge soon. Almost at Gen 4

I really hope that this challenge will be updated soon!

This looks like something I might want to do! As already mentioned, a great way to remember the basics of the game :D

Mind if I take over and finish updating this challenge?

I have now finished writing the challenge, but if you would like to make your own spin on it be my guest.

Yes that would work, whatever seams the easiest for you to do.

Sorry it took so long, but the challenge is now complete.

I am so sorry it took so long but it is completed now.

So happy to see this has updated!! This looks great!

I'm sorry it took so long, but I'm back to playing now and will be play testing it as i go.

I have been playing this wonderful challenge for a while, having the most fun I've ever had in this game.

I'm with the last pack, ITF, and found a bit of a problem with one of the requirements:

Complete one of the Following Careers
(Astronomer, Bot Arena.)


The rabbit hole buildings for these careers are in Oasis Landing, but because of the mechanics of the game, it's impossible to get a job there, unless you use Nraas Traveler. Another option would be to install the rabbit holes in the home world, which would sort of defeat the purpose of the "future" scenario.

So... I didn't do that one. Instead, I reached level 10 of the self-employed bot-building career, which I was actually able to accomplish in Oasis Landing.

Thank you for telling me about the jobs. I haven't played that yet and didn't know about it. It's an honor to know that someone would play this challenge at all but especially to the end. Thank you so much.
