Oh! Besides Khaleesi aging up to an elder, Oliver still has one more yet-to-be revealed requirement!
He's so close to completing all his requirements, it seems!
Speaking of, I see that the Championship Rider aspiration is listed separately from the Every horse competition requirement.
For some reason, I thought the 17 competitions were part of the aspiration. Still never doing that aspiration, lol!
Those shots of all the ranch hands showing up were hilarious!
Is a Ranch Hand normally like a butler in that it takes up a household slot?
I'm so glad Watcher was able to find the gravestone. Was a mod involved in that process?
I hope the Sandovals can temporarily add Jaime to the household so we can learn his cause of death.
Overexertion by Horse Manure? (jk)
Ash's hair is almost black! Or am I not seeing the color in the proper light?
The Championship Rider aspiration requires competing in 15 competitions while the source challenge includes winning every competition available. There are 16 (4 types at 4 levels each) plus the Ultimate, so 17 total.
That Ranch Hand thing was SO FUNNY! I was just rolling. I was like "Oh, another one, and another one, and here's another one!" I had Oliver doing Friendly Introductions as fast as he could so I could learn their traits. It was really hilarious but then it just didn't stop. I was determined to bring Jaime back, it was such a shock to lose him, but all those Ranch Hands on the property made rethink it - maybe best to leave the Ranch Hand thing alone. But the final decision isn't made - if Jaime doesn't show up like Camille and Devon do, then Oliver will Necro Call him, and depending how that goes, we may bring him back to join the family before the heir moves out.
I did use a mod to retrieve the gravestone - because he is Not In World and didn't die on my property, I don't think his gravestone would have been retrievable otherwise. The mod I used is by LittleMsSam and is called "RSM - Release all Ghosts & Get Urn for". You need an urn or gravestone to to click on, but it can be the one from debug or anyone else's.(Oliver had several to choose from in the basement.) You click it and have the option to release the ghost (or all ghosts) or to get an urn for any dead Sim. But you have to know that it doesn't track whether you already have the urn/gravestone and would let you retrieve multiple for the same Sim. It is creating one for you, not actually retrieving, so you could later find the real gravestone for the Sim out in the world - that happened to me in my BDD - I looked everywhere I could think of for one of my Cordova's gravestones, finally retrieved it and put it in the family cemetery, and shortly after found the real one outside the Shrieking Llama.
Ash's hair is actually dark brown - I don't have cc hair colors - it's the fourth swatch from the left, same as Oliver's. It does look a little darker though in all lights, just a style thing I guess.
Oh, my life! 2 dozen ranch hands! The game really got in a muddle, didn't it. I'm glad you managed to sort it.
The default High School is so inefficient. I've got a nice one from LilSimsie at the moment. It's much more compact and has decent art and computer rooms.
The family secrets just keep revealing themselves. Sounds like it's time for a family conference.
I keep meaning to replace the high school, but each generation my teens don't go that many days, and once they graduate I forget all about it until I go there with the next gen teens. So this time I have notes about what we're doing in the next two weeks before the heir moves out, and replacing the high school is on the list.
I don't know why the story keeps pulling me back to Jasmine's ordeal, but I think once we've moved on from this house I'll be over it. 😉
