The Sims 3 Immortal Dynasty Challenge

[Trip]

That is the correct lot size for Bridgeport's dynasty lot. And yes, it is tiny. Even smaller than Twinbrook's dynasty lot!

[Jamie]

Well, at least I'm not into building. I'll probably have my sims sleeping outside.  Thanks, Trip!

[Shirin]

If you have IP, just buy them a tent from buy mode.

Oh, I was just thinking about putting their beds outside. I don't have seasons so I'm not worried about the weather or anything like that.

[Shirin]

Oh, well, that works too!

Island Paradise? Lets you buy tents? I never knew that. I thought the tents were part of WA and you could only get them on vacation.

I used sleeping bags at first.

[Shirin]

Yeah, IP comes with a tent - if memory serves, it's under Outdoors > Activities, pretty close to the windboards.

Its size is the same as the smallest of the WA tents that you can buy on vacation, and the IP design is blue on the default and icon.

Works wonders if you can swing a tent, a fridge, and a shower/potty combo.

I know it's early, but any word on if it's ok to use the tractor in the Grandpa's Grove set?  I would think we can since it doesn't age you up or down, but wanted to make sure first.

[Deme]

So...I've run into a small problem. Well, a large one.
My generation 3 Heir was born invisible. Reloading the game does not help. She cannot be selected to be interacted with, and thus cannot be deliberately tended for or anything. I don't even know if she can be autonomously cared for. I've tried reloading the game, but no dice. She's even invisible in the save select portrait.
So, assuming clearing my caches tomorrow does not work, can I go to a previous save and try for a non-invisible baby?

Yes it looks fine to use, unless you find some kind of aging bug while using the tractor, let's hope not.

Yes, that's fine. Good luck.

I have also had this problem before, or something like it. You might have some bad cc causing it. That's what was my problem. If not then I can't help.

[Deme]

I don't have any custom content. I have store stuff, but that's about it. Nothing that'd show up with a baby.

Speaking of which -- I asked this on the ambitions board, but the only people who could answer it are probably reading this board, and may not think to look... Let's say you have an heir who has an imaginary friend. You don't make the IF real, but it is "living." This heir becomes immortal. Will the not-real IF live forever?

[Trip]

Since they're permanently tied to your heir's life if you don't make them real, yes.

[Sherry]

Are we allowed to change the spouse name just to match the themes we are using?
What I meant is when we move the spouse in, and then we go to town hall to change the name...
