Important (Very Long) AnnouncementWell, as some of you may already know from reading
this thread, I have lost my legacy.
I could technically get it back if I went to Chapter 27 again like I did a few months ago and replayed the entire thing but people, that's far too long ago! I'm not being lazy or anything, you know how hard I've tried to keep this going, but I just can't anymore. I think the problem was a corrupt file but that doesn't really make sense because my backups (the ones that worked perfectly fine before) seem to be doing exactly the same thing as the allegedly 'corrupt' file. The problem is that the Dreamer files keep crashing just before they finish loading. I have tried absolutely everything suggested everywhere and nothing works. I could technically wait till I get the new computer, as this could be a problem with the horrible laptop I'm playing on, but I'm not going to do that because the computer is not a guarantee, and if I do get it it certainly won't be very soon.
So.. The dream is over. I'm sorry.
Of course, I'm restarting though.
I will be continuing with the same family, but I won't be taking the whole family on. I don't have the entire family saved to my library.
(I did used to, but that was before I did that factory reset a few weeks ago, and since then I never thought to resave the family to the clipboard) Therefore, I need to use the CAS versions of my Dreamers, put them in a household together with relationships intact and restart.
I have decided on what is going to happen to the Dreamers and I have decided on who will survive the tragic event that will take place. Renesmee, obviously, Jayden - of course, and Lori. I feel obliged to keep Lori, I just don't think I could ever get rid of my first sim I ever made.
When I said she'd be immortal, I wasn't kidding.
However, I feel that this isn't enough. The family was huge, and I think killing off that amount of sims is not only unrealistic but really, really sad as well.
So... I'm getting you all to pick who survives!
So, before I ask a mod to send this thread over to the graveyard, I'm putting up a poll on Samoht's Den. If the result is a tie, depending on who the sims are, I will either decide to keep both or just pick who survives myself.
I have put up a short (well, it's short in my opinion
) description of each sim, and mentioned some implications of what would happen if this sim was chosen.
Because every sim is a CAS sim, I will have to redo any skill the sim has from the start. For the purpose of my sanity, I won't be redoing them all and I won't be bothered with, say, doing the challenge Ben did in France if he gets picked, or redoing Taylor's Visa Level 3. I think redoing them would defeat the purpose of my storyline.
As for the storyline itself, you'll just have to find out.
It will be very, very sad, but hey - I cried when my file got corrupt, so it suits!
Here is the poll. I have allowed you to vote for two sims if you wish. The poll lasts a week from today. (It will end on Friday the 17th)
Please vote!
Lori's Dream may be over, but that doesn't mean mine won't continue..!
A huge thank you to everyone who ever clicked the title of this legacy and had a read, every view counts, and an extra thank you to all the commenters. I'm extremely thrilled that this thread had almost 15,000 views because it's almost been a year and that's really wonderful to see. I hope all my current readers go on to read the next legacy and enjoy it as much as they have this one, or far more! I'm going to try and update the next one as best I can, and I will be structuring the way I write a lot more, bettering the screenies I take and organising my editing a little better than I have in recent times.
Again, thank you all! *Insert some cheesy line that incorporates the word 'dream' and highlights how much I love you all at the same time*
