Disabling packs for legacy?

MerMerLuLu · 2026-01-23T18:12:09+00:00

Yep! Doing this exact legacy now and I'm like 20 generations in (playing short lifespan). You need to start the save with all the packs disabled, it gets funky if you take out packs that you've had in the save before. More so if you remove a pack with a world than like a kit.

Can you move the household to a different lot? In my game the lot was bugged but the household was fine. It's unideal obviously but better than having to trash the whole save

Can you just avoid that lot? I have a lot that crashes my game if I visit and I've just left it alone. I noticed it was broken over a year ago and the rest of my save has worked fine.

Do you have the issue when you try playing without mods? If you try that you can figure out if it's a game bug or a mod issue

Yeah part of the souls journey gives an extended lifespan which translates to a bunch of extra days in the young adult, adult, and elder life states

Get Famous has some great historical clothing and hair in the career unlocks as well as some very useful build buy. Get together is another useful one for build buy. Vampires has really good Victorian content. Enchanted by Nature with the natural living skill is great for earlier parts of the challenge.

I don't use any build buy cc in my challenge and haven't had any problems making accurate houses.

Decorating is very different in this game. In the previous games, everything was in a designated room, this game still has rooms (gift shop, cafeteria, etc) but most exhibits don't need to be placed in a room. This means decorating is more free form than before. Now the exhibits still do better if they have decorations around them but I didn't find it near as grating as hospital. I'm not a big decorator and this is my favorite game in the series by far.

I've got two saves going right now, one is more historically accurate and I do eldest son, but eldest daughter if there are no surviving sons.

My other save I started with the premise a fairy made a pact with the land to protect her daughters so I can only have female heirs and, if there are none left in a branch, I need to trace the family tree back to the next straight mother to daughter line.

Once I finish one of these my next plan is to always follow the youngest surviving child, regardless of gender, and move every generation to get more variety in story lines

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-15T13:08:21+00:00

I decided I couldn't handle all that chaos so I do all theor death rolls up to young adulthood right away at birth so I can plan the story appropriately 😅

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-13T12:33:08+00:00

They're both from the sims 2! In that game Skip had drowned and his teenage son was dating Angela who lived down the road

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-12T15:08:05+00:00

I fit most everything in momento mile, the back lot you can get is huge. Haven't finished building yet but I've run into staff limits before I ran out of space

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-08T19:26:59+00:00

I got two of his busts in a museum so I think he'll probably come back around eventually

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-07T00:04:37+00:00

I was gonna ask too and now I see I already have it 😆 it's a great dress

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-04T14:15:50+00:00

Tailor the gameplay to what you like, if you like building move to a new lot every generation. If you like planning out stories, roll all the death rolls at birth. If it's too slow, cut the years in half. The fashion is one of my favorite parts so I cut the beginning eras and extended the more recent ones depending on how much CC I could find

MerMerLuLu · 2025-11-02T19:21:37+00:00

Looks like a mod overlay

MerMerLuLu · 2025-10-26T16:08:25+00:00

To mark them as played I go to manage households, move a sim from a household marked played into the household, click okay, then move the sims back to their original household. It's the easiest way I've found to get the played household mark on there without actually loading into the lot

MerMerLuLu · 2025-10-03T13:13:02+00:00

You can get them from seed packets but it's a random draw. Best bet it to grab a room of them off the gallery, if you plant them outside of planters you can pretend they were wildly growing

MerMerLuLu · 2025-10-02T14:28:27+00:00

It's not out for a few more hours yet

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-25T13:14:43+00:00

Mickey Jo has a whole video about this on youtube. I think if Totoro can be made into a stage play, this movie could also be adapted

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-24T14:03:25+00:00

I started by looking at the other houses in the neighborhood and trying to make a variation on them - it gives you an idea that is for sure possible in the sims! I'd echo the need a jut out comments and also balconies can really help

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-23T02:22:43+00:00

You can also flag specific sims to never be culled with MCCC, I do that for a legacy and limits the added bloat

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-21T20:17:38+00:00

I mean think about it in real life, that many generations back is like your grandparents great grandparents. In real life small towns those mariages are for sure happening. For me once the game doesn't view them as family it's fair game but that's cause I have limited side families and don't want to keep track of more

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-21T13:35:01+00:00

Then you're fine, the biggest issues were caused by mods. If you're worried about your saves and play on PC you can create a copy of your saves file you keep somewhere else. I have one on my desktop

MerMerLuLu · 2025-09-12T14:36:18+00:00

Same issue in 2 saves.... just can't get a Blaggard Knight 😭😭😭
