Ranch Expanded - Unofficial Buildmode Addon with 64 new items
It's finally done! This is why I tend to break up addons with multiple core styles; things get out of hand if I don't. And oh boy, did it get waaaay out of hand for Horse Ranch. Three core styles that were not fleshed out enough for my liking, and one without any corresponding doors or arches makes Peacy go overboard with filling the gaps. I am really happy with how it all turned out, and i am particularly in love with the open bifold doors I made, but i think I my eyes need a break from them for a while. Luckily you all won't have that problem, so build away!
inspired: merfolk actually have very different concepts of gender to humans because they’re an entirely different species with their own unique culture
It’s a biological fact that fish do indeed change their sex to keep the male/female ratio balanced in their school population. So this fluidity actually makes more sense from a scientific standpoint than the silly idea that merfolk are born with a strictly assigned sex like humans.
Human: (invites merfolk friend to a boat party with their friends)
Merfolk: oh man, there are a lot of women here. Haha don’t worry guys, I got this :) *changes into a man to keep a balance because that’s culturally polite for merfolk*
diet culture people make me feel like i’m going crazy. you want me to take an experimental pill that destroys my appetite?? you want me to remove part of my stomach??? you want me to stop eating bread and rice, two of the staple foods most inherent to humanity????? why exactly? because my stomach is big? because you don’t like the way i look, and you think it’s reasonable to tell me to carve pieces off of myself and try random drugs and ruin my own life so i can look more visually pleasing to you? and you somehow don’t see how absurdly cruel and selfish that is to ask of somebody???? while pretending you care about their HEALTH????????????????? FUCK YOU!!!!
do you like creating complex stories with complex characters? inspired by the Not So Berry legacy challenge , we’ve created this challenge to explore new stories and experiences in our games. welcome to our ten generation legacy challenge, “what could go wrong?” created by @darlingstoriees and @maadsimming
follow our WCGW stories @curious.whims and @maad.whims over on instagram!
challenge rules:
each generation has a suggested color for you to follow; this of course is optional but it makes it a bit more fun!
the colors of the spouses don’t matter. unless specifically stated in the rules, you can do whatever you please with them.
some generations will have relationship rules, however if none are stated, the relationships between all sims will be up to your interpretation!
unless said otherwise, money cheats can be used, but not excessively. suggestion: use freerealestate for your first home, but no cheats afterward.
your sims may live wherever you please unless the world is specified in the rules of a generation.
every heir should complete the rules, aspiration, and career(s) of the generation unless explicitly stated otherwise.
if you do not have the packs required for certain traits, use the suggested traits options (or if the suggested traits simply just fit your ideas better, feel free!)
if you play this challenge and want to share it with us, make sure to post with #wcgwlegacy so we can see! feel free to tag us as well: @curious.whims & @maad.whims (on instagram)

generation one: new in town.

generation two: hopeless romantic.
you always loved love. from watching the prince and princess fall in love at first sight in movies, to crying about random older couples on the street. the only bad part about love is that it doesn't seem to find you… until the one person you hate proposes the idea of being in a “fake relationship,” and you would do anything to be loved… even if it happened to be fake.

after hearing the story of your parents "romcom romance" you made up your mind to never fall in love or have a family. besides the strong dislike for affection, you did love attention. you had many trophies and medals lining up your shelves in your bedroom from every theater performance you had as a child. you always needed to have the center of the spotlight… you even knew how to keep your spotlight bright, while diming your coworkers’ who ended up getting you pregnant.

you grew up with a selfish parent who taught you to act a certain way to get what you want. all you wanted was a parent, and you thought acting out was the way to get one. once you realized that's something more unrealistic than an ufo sighting you decided to run away. running away ended up being a worse choice than living with your parent, when someone took you in and got you into a messy situation...

generation six: blending in.
you always admired big friend groups and being surrounded by people. you wanted it, you needed it. but because of one simple flaw, you were kept at a distance. being an alien wasn't fun or quirky for you, it was isolating. you studied how to be human as much as you could... picking up several skills, doing weird jobs. finally, when you prepared yourself enough you took a big leap straight into business in hopes to blend into society as perfectly as you can.

Creator Note:
Hi guys, & welcome to my challenge! So over the last few months, I’ve looked for for a challenge that I thought I might enjoy, but I always kept coming across ones with extensive gameplay rules ( and scoring? ) and while that’s totally fine, it’s just not how I like to play my game. The thing I love most about The Sims is that YOU get to choose how you play, so this challenge was made for people with wild imaginations, with the general outline to guide your narrative without actually telling you too much HOW to play your game. I hope you enjoy it, and as I think of more objectives, I’ll add them!!
Feel free to tag me in your challenge! I’d love to see. :)
Today is International Book Day, and as such I'm bringing a little posepack for those little pixels that are starting the ride to read and find a lot of fun and worlds under words.
At what age did you start reading?
My mom tells me that she missed the exact moment 'cause I just got to her and showed her i knew how to read but i was 3 years old back then.
So I thought about making some poses for the little toddlers that are starting to read with and without help haha and I have to say that I'm in love with these poses, they're really cute!!
BTW for the last 3 poses I tried to contact with Mel Bennet (the original creator of the acc) for them to convert the acc to toddler, but they didn't answer so I took the dare to convert the book accessory to toddlers for them to hold the book like a big child hehe. All the textures and the mesh belong to Mel, so the credit goes to them, I just converted it to toddlers.
I hope you like them and enjoy them, and I wish a happy international book day to those who love to read!!!
----------
What is on it?
1 Duo pose for an ADULT sim and a TODDLER sim.
5 Trio poses for an ADULT sim and 2 TODDLER sims.
1 Duo pose for 2 TODDLER sims.
2 Solo poses for a TODDLER sim.

I started these new eyes back in September, and had quite a few detours, but here they are! I wanted these eyes to be extremely comprehensive from the start so that I could fully replace the 2PM swatches I was using, so we have: defaults + non-defaults for EA swatches, all occult defaults, 36 color natural addons, 20 color starburst addons, Sorbet Remix, Historian, and Scientist! This is an extremely long post!
Download and Info under the cut!
Link to the download folder (with organized subfolders!) will be at the bottom! Please let me know if you encounter any issues or errors :)
Defaults/Non-Defaults
The standard EA palette; available as both defaults (replaces the EA swatches) or non-defaults (adds to the genetic panel, but does not replace anything). Heterochromia for all ages.
Alien Defaults
Replaces the EA Alien eyes. I replaced the squiggly pattern in the last swatches with more colors of the swirl and big ring, as I prefer the look of those! Get to Work Expansion required
Vampire Defaults
Replaces the EA vampire eyes. No emission maps. Vampires Gamepack required
Mermaid Defaults
Replaces the EA Mermaid eyes. No emission map. Island Living Expansion required
Werewolf Defaults
Replaces the EA werewolf eyes. No emission maps. Werewolves Gamepack required
Blue/Green/Brown Addons
Remakes of my expanded natural eye color addons! Individual downloads, or merged available. 36 total swatches. Heterochromia for all ages
Starburst Addons
Remakes of my favorite swatches from the 2PM Eyes! Natural eye colors with a bright burst of a secondary color around the pupil. 20 total swatches. Heterochromia for all ages.
Sorbet Remix
Palette by @noodlescc
This is my main berry palette, so obviously needed to be included! 72 bright rainbow swatches, and each of the 8 overlays comes in all 72 swatches. Heterochromia is for all ages.
Historian
Palette by @serindipitysims
One half of the academia palettes, with beautiful muted swatches! 28 muted rainbow swatches, and each of the 8 overlays comes in all 28 swatches. Heterochromia is for all ages.
Scientist
Palette by @serindipitysims
The second of the academia palettes, this one with desaturated pastels! 28 pastel swatches, and each of the 8 overlays comes in all 28 swatches. Heterochromia is for all ages.
Overlays!
These 8 overlays come in the Sorbet Remix, Scientist, and Historian palettes! There's the merged files that contain all 4 slot options for each overlay (Left Cheek, Right Cheek, Left Lip, Right Lip), or individual files if you only want one or two slot options.
DOWNLOAD!!
Simfileshare | Dropbox
100% free, no ads! Do not reupload, or put links behind any kind of paywall or adwall.
Required Heterochromia Mesh by @oydis! The heterochromia options will not work unless you download this as well! You need the unshaded version!
Now, as you're downloading, you may ask "hey, Ants, what the heck is that 'TO REPLACE 2PM' folder with seemingly the same files in it?" fantastic question, I say, those are special files that conflict with the 2PM eyes that you use to replace your eyes effortlessly with! If you want to shift from the 2PM eyes to the 9PM eyes, just delete the 2PM files, replace with the files from this folder, and your sims will automatically have the new textures without having to manually go through and fix all their eyes! If you're not currently using the 2PM eyes, just download the normal files in the main folders.
this challenge spans over 5 generations but feel free to stop whenever you’d like or continue onto making your own gens with the left out signs
ofc i’ve only used 5 signs so im sorry if yours is left out, it wasnt for any reason
some of the traits might seem a little “off” because i tried to not use the same trait twice and so went for something close but not exactly correct
i’ve planned another 5 gens to make the legacy a full 10-gen legacy but i’ll see how this is taken first!
rules:
your sims can look however you like
all cheats are allowed apart from giving your household extra moneys (yes even free real estate, but ONLY when moving heirs or giving siblings/parents new houses, not in the middle of a generation for a bigger house)
each generation should be completed before moving your heir (or previous heirs) out
gen 1: aries
your sim has come from a wealthy family that lived in willow creek. they ran a factory that brought in heaps of money. however, after your father passed away, and your mother became ill, the business fell into bankrupcy. unable to work due to caring for your mother, and being an only child, you struggle imesnley with money. when your mother passes away, you miss her greatley, but also feel a massive weight lift from your shoulders. you can finally live your life again. you decide to start fresh in a new city and dream of living the luxurious life that your parents had.
move them into the city into a tlc aparment: unfurnished!!
use the cheat: testingcheats on, and then, money 5000 to set your household funds to 5,000 simoleans. these funds are your starting amount to decorate your house and give your sim their basic needs.*

this includes your day job in the business career (either branch) up to level 10

*this took forever to work for me! i dont know what i did to make it work. i tried simply typing money 5000 so many times (which is what you’re supposed to do), then tried sims.modify_funds-5000, which didnt work, then sims.modify_funds - “money amount” without the quotation marks and then FINALLY simply typing in money 5000 worked! so idk if theres a need for sims.modify_funds to be entered before typing in money 5000??? who knows.

the idea of public restrooms as "women's spaces" continues to confound me. you know who I hope is in a public bathroom when I go in?? no one. I would prefer no one else be in the bathroom. and if someone else is in the bathroom I am going to ignore them as much as possible. I did not go into the bathroom to connect with other women. I went into the bathroom to piss and/or shit. it's a toilet's space, not a women's space. shut the fuck up and let trans people piss and shit in peace. let's all continue to avoid eye contact with each other and any and all interaction in the toilet's space.
human brain is so easy to manipulate its stupid. sun is out longer in evening = life is worth living...read some negative social media posts = everybody hates me...read one interesting article = i have the scholar's ambition
