great update.

Ani-Mei: I don't have Ambitions for a few reasons. First of all, I tried to buy EPs in order and for some reason I thought it went WA -> LN -> Generations -> Ambitions. Then I didn't have enough cash to go out and buy video games (grad school, man), and now I'm scared that if I try to install another EP on my computer, it will explode. At some point I will get more EPs, even if it's just so Auden can have fun with chainsaws, which is a very Auden thing. I'm glad you're mostly caught up!

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Fingers crossed that I can get another update this weekend! I've got all of Saturday and most of Sunday free, so we shall see!

[Emily Whalers]

Woo, I managed to squeeze out a new post here!

[Emily Whalers]

Chapter 4.13 is here! The last chapter of Generation Four, and Generation Five will be on the way soon!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

I have a No Vehicle Relationships mod, mostly because I think it's just wrong. Also moar route phails at the stairs, three words: moveobjects on. Anyway, nice way to start generation 5 I haven't turned any IF's real in forever. In my Rainbowcy I abandoned my Orange gen heir's in China, and gave my Yellow gen heir's one to a playable Townie kid who never gets one, he was so happy. Looking forward to a new generation.

Spoiler:

I may have to look up that mod. While I think it's silly that Callie has a relationship with her car, it's annoying when it happens to other Sims. I've tried moveobjects on and rebuilding the entire upstairs landing to stop the glitchiness, but it hasn't really worked. It's been better since I replaced the stairs, but it will never be completely free of glitches, sadly. Puzzle is the second IF I've turned real (I did another in an unpublished save) and she's going to be the only Scatterday IF to become real. I had to do it at least once! Hopefully Generation 5 will be to your liking! Thanks for reading and commenting too!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

I add stairs at least 3 wide and an elevator so never had any route fails. Elevators work when I build basements which I do in every house, it's just a good place to stick things like the obsessive Skull jewels I HAVE to have every time and all the WA treasures. The No Vehicle Relationships mod is by Buzzler on MTS 2 if you still want to get it. And I also have the same Zodiac for twins and trips too.

I started reading this a long time ago and probably forgot to come back or went on one of my famous hiatuses for a million years. I am hoping to catch all the way up (I'm on chapter 3 of generation 1...LOL), soon. I just want to put a first post here so I don't forget ever again.

I am really enjoying this and I love your founder.

Ani-Mei:

Spoiler:

I didn't actually build the house, but it's been fine other than the weird glitchy staircase. The upstairs landing is kind of narrower than it looks, so I'd barely be able to cram in two staircases. I'll have to look into the no vehicle relationships mod, but twins and triplets having different Zodiacs oddly doesn't bother me, so I think I'll skip that. Thanks for the mod recs, though!

Jenn: Welcome! Or...welcome back, I guess. I'm glad you're catching up and that you're liking Ainsley so far! She was a hoot, and I miss her. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Chapter 5.1 and GENERATION 5 is here!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

Aging heirs, is it normal to not want them too? My playing is ahead of my writing again so I still want to turn the clock back but I cannot... Anyway, nice chappie despite those annoying celebrity smearing campaigns. I like my cheats, can't help it. I get rid of them. Heh, looking forward to gen 6!

[Emily Whalers]

Ani-Mei:

Spoiler:

My sadness about aging heirs is only because Callie has been in my game for so long! She was born in-game in 2013, became an elder in 2015 (I am so behind on posting, wah), and she's still alive in my game! It just felt like I'd have her around forever, you know? I'm going to have to look into some cheats to get rid of the celebrity supernatural Woohoo shaming thing. I just keep forgetting to actually add it in-game, and I'm worried about it conflicting with Twallan's MasterController, StoryProgression, and other mods. I do really appreciate all the recommendations!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

I just turn on the Testing Cheats with the NRAAS controller then I can Ctrl+click away the negative moodlets. That's how I get rid of them.

[Emily Whalers]

Ani-Mei:

Spoiler:

Eh, that's way too cheaty for a legacy (I try to play without too much cheating) so I think I'll avoid it. The moodlets don't bother me too much, it's the whole paparazzi being awful thing that bugs me.

Chapter 5.2 is out!

[Echoweaver]

I just got to the post where we said goodbye to Grissy, and I realized that none of my comments are showing up on your posts.

I want to cry.

[Emily Whalers]

Echo - I forgot we had that weird commenting issue. I'm so glad I figured out a way to fix. Still a bit annoyed at Wordpress for that one.

At long last, it's a new chapter!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

Finally got that girl huh? About time too, it's contagious when I want a certain gender heir I get the opposite and then the house is full, so I have to wait for someone to die off before I can try again to get the right gender. My sims like to outlive their alotted days by about a week or more, it's both a blessing and a curse. Anywho, nice to see you back.

[Emily Whalers]

Ani-Mei:

Spoiler:

Getting a girl for baby #2 is amazing for me! Usually my first girl is baby #3, because my game hates me. That's always how it works - you want a certain gender, but they're never going to show up! My Sims also stick around for a bit - granted I did jack up my elder lifespan, but after Griselda lived for 121 days (unheard of for most Sims on the regular lifespan!) I think I'm going to bring it down a notch. I just don't want my Sims dying before they get to bond with their grandchildren!

Update 5.4 is here! Happy SimNaWriMo, everyone!

[Emily Whalers]

More updating! 5.5 is over this way!

[Emily Whalers]

Shorter update, anyone? Chapter 5.6 is here!

[Ani-Mei]

Spoiler:

I think you meant to write Elaine was aging into a teen, not Mabel. She's still a child. Anyway, I have been reading just slacking in the comments sections and I've also been updating for this too as well as trying out a Sims 3 Monster Mash challenge (which is harder than it sounds). Other than that, nice updates.
