I FINALLY DID IT, MADE A CONVERSION OF THE VERY VEGGIE CHALLENGE FOR THE SIMS 3!

🌿 The Sims 3: Very Veggie Legacy Challenge

10 Generations of Nature-Inspired, Personality-Packed Sims

Each generation is themed around a vegetable, with traits, goals, and tasks reflecting its flavor, lifestyle, and quirks. From artists and adventurers to ghosts and gold diggers, every Sim must overcome their unique roots to grow their legacy.

🌱 Introduction & Setup

This is my Sims 3 conversion of the Sims 4 Very Veggie Challenge created by lilsimsie. I tried to keep it as close to the original as possible while including alternate stories to better suit Sims 3 gameplay features. This version includes content from various Sims 3 expansion packs, so feel free to substitute similar items if you're missing something. I love the idea of this challenge and wanted to create an option for people who still enjoy The Sims 3.

Just like the original, this is a rags-to-riches legacy challenge: no cheating! Everything should be earned. Inheritance and genie wishes are allowed.

🏗️ Setting Up

Start with 1 young adult Sim as your founder

Dress your Sim to match their assigned color theme and vegetable

Use the assigned traits and Lifetime Wish for Generation 1 (Broccoli)

Use the assigned favorites, likes/dislikes, and zodiac sign

Move your Sim to any empty lot

Set household funds to §0 using cheats:

🔒 Rules

All listed traits, careers, and Lifetime Wishes must be completed unless you're missing required content

You may move lots or worlds between generations to signify new chapters. (Optional)

Monster High Legacy TS3 ✨

A big shoutout to @simmingsamantha for coming up with the original challenge! You can find all the details for the TS3 version in the handy Google Document 📄

I decided to spice things up and add two extra generations, inspired by @domzoknem, specifically for The Sims 4.

If you’re planning on picking up the challenge, don’t hesitate to share your progress, stories, and creations! Make sure to tag your posts with #sarhxz and #sarhxzMHLC

RULES 📌

The rules remain the same as the original challenge, but I just want to clarify a few points.

As mentioned by simmingsamantha, each generation in the challenge is assigned a specific color scheme; however, you're not required to follow it if you don’t want to. Additionally, you don’t have to make your Sims look like the dolls in question. I also recommend you read each generation before starting!

One update I’d like to add: You can buy more lifetime rewards, though the ones shown are still required. You’re also allowed to humanize Sims using cheats unless a specific occult is required for that generation.

But like any other legacy challenge, you're the one who makes the rules, so the most important one is to have fun with it!

With TikTok being banned in a few days, I've decided to start posting my current household to tumblr! I've been playing my own version of a Taylor Swift legacy challenge for about a month now.

I am currently on the Fearless Gen, which is gen 2! This is my heir, Love Taylor! She is a good, hopeless romantic, hydrophobic, mooch equestrian. She got engaged with her now husband, Jack, back in high school and was soon pregnant after that. She gave birth to her oldest, Winter, on her birthday. As a young, stay at home mom, she used her free time to practice riding her horse, Superstar. Together, they have entered many competitions and will continue to win many.

Love and Jack had another song recently, named Adam after the man Taylor wrote Enchanted about. At the moment, Adam is going to be the Speak Now heir. I am excited to see how the family grows!

⚠️ ADVISORY: Malicious Mods, Identity Theft, Malware, and You ⚠️

Hey, all! Not sure how many people will see this, but if you do, please reblog. This is a 'little' post regarding a potentially big problem affecting the Sims 4 community. If you download mods/CC at all (and yes I know CC is a type of mod), this applies to you.

TL;DR: For the sake of your personal info, identity, bank account, et cetera, please STOP downloading any mods/CC for the time being. Especially from the following sites: CurseForge, ModTheSims, The Sims Resource. It doesn't matter if you know the creator or not. Give it at least a week while we all figure out what's going on. If you must, I would recommend only downloading directly from a creator's Patreon (assuming they have one).

Other people have written at length about the mods in question, so I'll just share their posts below.

What's going on?

From the Sims 4 After Dark Discord server (a server you should join if you're not in it already):

⚠️If you downloaded any mod listed in the above post and played the game with them installed, this is the cleaner program Kuttoe (creator of the Home Regions and Townie Demographics mods) mentioned in their post: GitHub - overwolf/sims4-social-events-cleaner: Source files and exe release for a tool to clean up your machine if you have downloaded the "Social Events - Unlimited Time" Sims 4 mod ⚠️

Got confirmation from Kuttoe that as long as you didn't boot up the game with the malicious mods installed (or deleted them completely from your computer before playing the game), you *should* be fine. Still, I recommend that anyone who thinks they might have downloaded any of them run the cleaner program.

Here's an explanation from @anadius2 (reposted by Kuttoe) in the Sims 4 After Dark server (not providing a link to prevent brigading or spam, but you can DM me and I'll give you the link) about what the malware will do to your computer:

And a little dive into the back-end coding stuff for the more tech-savvy Simmers out there:

So, to recap:

Fake mods were uploaded to Curseforge, ModTheSims, and The Sims Resource

@msqsimsofficial had their account compromised on 2 of those sites (they are a victim of hacking, so do not send them hate!)

If downloaded, these malicious mods have the ability to steal very sensitive info (your passwords, credit card info if saved somewhere in your browser, data)

As of right now, antivirus software may not be able to detect the malware

Mac and Linux users seem to be safe; Windows users are the ones that could be affected

Why is this happening?

Unsure. Lots of theories are being made by people far more knowledgeable than me, but from the looks of things, could be crypto bullshit and/or an attempt to steal your data and sell it. This is very, very serious, and could wreck your life if said data/personal info falls into the wrong hands.

Identity Theft: What It Is, How to Prevent It, Warning Signs and Tips - NerdWallet

It's always a good idea to change passwords every couple of months or so, but if you think you've been affected, you also need to change your passwords for things like online banking, email and social media accounts, healthcare sites AFTER running the cleaner.

What now?

I want to talk about how we approach modding our games and downloading files in general.

Please STOP downloading mod file folders from people who did not create the specific mods. Period. This includes Sim dumps, building/lots with CC, mod folders promoted on YouTube, etc. This does not mean that anyone sharing them is doing so maliciously. In fact, I appreciate the amount of effort people put into compiling these resources! But unless you're super careful (and super knowledgeable), you run the risk of downloading malware like this on your computer. Make no mistake, the malicious files in question look like run-of-the-mill, everyday mods. Two of them were even posted from a trustworthy creator's actual account! The only way to know what they actually do is to peek into the code, and idk about you, but I don't know Python. So even after this issue is resolved, you really should only download files from the creators themselves.

But what about CC shopping?

Here's how I like to approach it: I stick to lookbooks and combing through the Patreons/accounts of creators who make items I like. If I see a Sim dump with CC that I'm interested, I try to reach out to the poster and ask where they got specific CC. If I can't do that, I see if it was shared via Drive, look at the individual files themselves, then head to the original CC creator's official download page and get it from the source.

That's all I have for you! Stay safe, and happy Simming! 🫶🏾

The Sims 3: Cosmic Legacy Challenge! (The Crow Family)

Recently decided to play the Cosmic Legacy Challenge by @thepettymachine and have been obsessed with my sims so thought I'd start sharing! So let me catch you up!

I started off with the founder and sun generation, Soleil Day. She's a career obsessed level 9 acrobat living in Starlight Shores. She ended up meeting her musician husband, Jackson Crow, early on and fell madly in love. They had a baby early into their marriage who is the mercury heir, Malachi (the teen in the last picture). They also had Mercury who is their other daughter that is currently a child.

Soon after aging into adulthood, Soleil decided to sneak out after a gig to meet up with a local celebrity friend (and cheating on her husband), the town found out and Jackson is now sleeping in the garage, as Soleil refuses to get a divorce because it will ruin her reputation even worse. Although before he found out, Soleil found out she was pregnant with their son, Micah, so now they have to navigate trying to raise their son while separated under the same roof.

[swiftsims13]

Here’s the Lockwood family, the couple is Eeden and Grayson. They love each other a lot and met walking their dogs (they’re both big dog lovers) and just a few months after being together they found out they were pregnant and Eeden gave birth to Haven. Before Eeden and Grayson moved in together Eeden owned Nyla who is a mix of a Cardigan Welsh Corgi and a Pembroke Welsh Corgi and Grayson owned an Australian Shepard named Oscar. Once they moved in together Nyla and Oscar made a puppy and her name is Lola.   

[swiftsims13]

This is what I’ve done so far with the new cats and dogs expansion :)

[swiftsims13]

Luis doesn’t look too scared this time and last time it wasn’t even his own child.

[swiftsims13]

Ava: Babe I think I’m going in labor

Luis: Oh my God! Okay let’s get to the hospital.

[swiftsims13]

Luis broke the dollhouse in the attic playroom.

[swiftsims13]

Ava made Carmine a lunch for school.

[swiftsims13]

Here is a bird’s eye view of Carmine’s new room.

[swiftsims13]

Carmine: Ah, monster! Mom, help!

[swiftsims13]

Carmine: It’s okay Mr.Bear, I’ll make you all better!

[swiftsims13]

Carmine started her homework almost right after she aged up.

[swiftsims13]

Here is Carmine as a child!

[swiftsims13]

Ava: Happy birthday, Carmine!
