10/8 — Work from home careers mean those where there is no option to leave to go to work.
10/10 - Correction to above. Work from home career - any career that allows your Sim to work from home every day, and your Sim must do that - no going to work.
10/11Added two new rules: - Each sim may have only one spouse total. If there is a divorce or death, neither spouse may remarry.
- Your household may move at any time, but everyone in the household must make the move and they must move to an empty lot/house - no moving in with another sim. The move must be made using the phone, not using Manage Households.
Modified: -
Previous - Big Dreams must be unique until you have
completed all you can complete (based on the packs you have). Then you may start a second round of unique Big Dreams. Second and subsequent rounds do not have to be in the same order as the first round.
-
Current - Big Dreams must be unique until you have
started all that you will be able to complete (based on the packs you have). Then you may start a second round of unique Big Dreams. Second and subsequent rounds do not have to be in the same order as the first round.
Added to existing rule: - Children and teens do not have to attend school on system-created Holidays that come with the day off. You may create additional holidays whenever you want, but only 1 per 2 weeks can include the day off from school/work. (This was subsequently changed - see "Removed school attendance rule" below)
- Updated Soulmates requirement regarding honeymoon to say that the honeymoon must start the day of or the day after the wedding.
10/12Removed school attendance rule: -
Previous - Children and teens must attend school every day (no vacation or sick days from school). Children and teens do not have to attend school on system-created Holidays that come with the day off. You may create additional holidays whenever you want, but only 1 per 2 weeks can include the day off from school/work.
-
Current - Your household may create 1 custom holiday per week.
Modified for clarity: -
Previous - Spouses joining the household must complete the Most Interesting Sim in the World Achievement (12 traits) and complete 1 unique collection (not completed by any other spouse and not required by the sim's Big Dream - this sim must do all the work of acquiring the collection). This replaces the toddler, child, and teen requirements, as those can't be met by an incoming YA or older.
-
Current - Spouses joining the household replace the teen and younger requirements with completion of both: 1) The Most Interesting Sim in the World achievement of having 12 traits and 2) One unique collection not part of their Big Dream.
New Rules Added: - The Wishing Well may only be used to wish for promotion once per week per sim
- Players may add 1 rental lot or change 1 residential lot to a rental lot in each town that doesn’t already have a rental lot.
- Players may download residential lots from the gallery (at your own risk) through the Gallery function in build mode (no free real estate) and provided that there are no career reward items on the lot.
- Added requirement that initial 2 founders be created in CAS as spouses.
- Players may replace, add and edit community lots (player-made or gallery) at any time.
- Each collection must be completed entirely by the sim who has that requirement.
Rules Removed: - Once a Sim moves out, they can't move back in.
Updated Spreadsheet: - Added alternate requirements on several Big Dreams to make playable with Base Game.
- Changed/removed/added a few requirements.
- Added one new Family-Oriented Big Dream playable with Base Game only.
- Added indication of packs required for each Big Dream.
10/13 - Added rule: Alternatives to Scout activities and Character Traits must be completed before age-up to YA. This means founders are exempt from completing these.
- Added alternative Satisfaction Reward on Foodie.
- Changed Music to My Ears requirement of earning $25,000 in tips to "Play for tips for 25 hours on community lots".
10/14 - Added "(among spouses)" to the collection uniqueness requirement - that was accidentally lost when I reworded that. So it now is: Spouses joining the household replace the teen and younger requirements with completion of both: 1) The Most Interesting Sim in the World achievement of having 12 traits and 2) One unique
(among spouses) collection not part of their Big Dream.
- People Person Big Dream - added Shameless as an alternative to Incredibly Friendly, and added a musical instrument as an alternative to singing to keep it base game eligible.
- Soulmates Big Dream - Replaced "Buy Incredibly Friendly" with "While a teen, mentor other sims in any skill for 10 hours" as the alternative to the Compassionate Character Trait to keep this Big Dream base game eligible.
- Love 'em and Take 'em - Changed the alternative to the Irresponsible Trait (discovered that Make messes is still part of Parenthood) - it is now Smash a dollhouse 10 times and "Slack off" at school for 3 days.
- Added: "If a Sim dies before completing a Big Dream, that same Big Dream has to be completed by another Sim before that round is considered complete. If you have already started a subsequent round, the incomplete Big Dream must be assigned to the next available Sim." This is to prevent players from killing off Sims in order to avoid a more difficult Big Dream. Not that anyone would ever do that . . . but just as a precaution.
10/15 - Modified: "The Wishing Well may only be used to wish for promotion once per week per Sim" was changed to "Any Sim that wishes for promotion at the Wishing Well, must wait one week before wishing for promotion again."
- Added: If you get an offer of $50,000 (or any large amount) you must decline the offer.
10/16 - Modified: "Each collection must be completed entirely by the Sim who has that requirement" to include "without using any kind of copying or cloning technique."
10/24 - Added: If your sim is working on the "Master Maker" aspiration you may encounter a known bug that prevents fabrication gigs from completing. After sending the item to the client and getting the client's response on your Notification Wall, if the gig does not register as complete, you may cancel it and count it as done. When you've completed 5 gigs and everything else in the aspiration is done, you may use a cheat to complete the aspiration. If you don't know how to do that cheat, please refer to the Cheats Page here on Carl's Guide.
11/7/21Modified multiplier example to be more clear that the Sims who completed Big Dreams DO count for the multiplier.
