Tell us about your current family!

Most current household is "The Uni Life" (as the saved file...) and there is 3 Sims.

Marisha Bleu, she is dating her roomie Thomas Braxson. Marisha is the nerdy girl while Thomas is the artsy fartsy one of the group. Then there is the Jock Kelly Osborne (no relations to the real life Kelly Osborne). They all succeeded all 3 social groups, and all graduated with perfect GPAs. Kelly was the most popular Sim, which was annoying at times... their mail box was filled most of the time. Thomas was also pretty popular with the ladies, but his heart belongs to Marisha

I might make a new family, or I might just keep playing them, haven't decided yet.

I'm playing the Majors family I stole the names from Rocky Horror Picture Show Brad Majors and Janet Weiss, they married not long after graduating college after they returned for the second time. Janet has degrees in Communications and Art while Brad has his degrees in Science and Business While at college Brad gained influence in the nerd clique while Janet was a Jock playing ping pong and doing keg stands. When they returned after their second trip to campus after completing Janet's Art degree she realised she wanted to become an art appraiser so she became rebellious and joined the career while Brad wanted to become a Video Game designer he is starting to have second thoughts and is curious about the Science career track. Meanwhile things started heating up in the bedroom and before Brad could switch careers Janet gave birth to twins: Lucas and Larissa Majors. They just celebrated their birthday into childhood when Brad was brushing up on his science and discovered the forbidden fruit and harvested it, bringing in a new plant-baby to the family: Serenity Majors, and that is where my sim-family tale leaves off.

I'm rooting for Kiru! I've noticed with my sims, it seems so much harder while in University to find love.

It would be kind of neat if TS4 implemented a bit of jealousy. Like if your other two sims would get jealous every once in a while of all the attention Kelly gets. Or if Marisha might get a bit jealous every once in a while of all the ladies clamoring for Thomas.

So all these babies have made it a bit harder for Brad to achieve his dreams, I am assuming? I hope he can (or has already) pull it off!


I am currently playing a legacy that I have just started this week. When creating the founder for my legacy, I clicked the random button in CAS and went with whatever it gave me. Here's what I was given:

Monty Cornwell
Young Adult Scorpio
Burgundy Hair, Violet Eyes
He was all the way fat on the fat/thin slider.
Bookworm, Genius, Animal Lover, Frugal, Schmoozer
His favorites are Stu Surprise, Green and Kids Music
Lifetime Wish: Illustrious Author

I moved him onto the largest lot in Starlight Shores (per legacy rules). I built him one wall and gave him the very basics, plus an easel. Immediately, I had him begin painting. This earned him money and skill toward his lifetime wish. Eventually, I was able to build him a small studio-like hut and he has continued to earn fruitfully. He has even gained a celebrity star point from painting.

Along the way, he got lonely and wanted to adopt a cat (Kobe). I also had him exercising every day and has become fit and buff. Eventually, because he was so busy with his skills and painting, Kobe became very lonely. Monty adopted another cat, named Dink. They are both avid hunters and play together frequently.

By this time, Monty has earned a pretty penny and I have built him a very nicely-equipped humble-sized house. After using online dating and getting nowhere with women, he finally met Shonda offline and they fell in love instantly. He just proposed to her last night and she accepted. I am excited to see where the next 9 generations take me!

Yes, I plan that the plantsim will take care of his garden giving him time to pursue his science career.

i'm currently playing Supernatural household: Oliver Tibeth is the vampire. he is proper, technophobe, bookworm, evil and insane. Anita McChow (stupid surname i know -.-) is the werewolf. She is perceptive, brave, hot-headed, night owl, and light-sleeper. her profession is investigator. next we have our fairy, Belle Ferginson. SHe is eco-friendly, green thumb,. childish, good and gatherer. Our witch is Levi Bendixen. He is brooding, no sense of humor, loner, natural cook and perfectionist. he is working at the diner. and last we have Devon Bendixen, Levi's sister. Devon is non-supernatural sim (an aspiring witch). She is mean spirited, supernatural fan, grumpy, dislikes children, perfectionist. she is working as psychic.

A lot of detail has gone into your family, maybe post about them in the legacies thread.

i might as well do that

Don't forget the pictures

I'm working on getting some screenshots together to begin a post about my legacy in that particular board, as well. Between work, play and language lessons, it may take me a while.

How does one take decent screenshots for a legacy, they always look so nice but for me the walls get in the way or it's too far zoomed in, yet I want it to look like you're in the room not looking from above.

A lot of pausing and moving the camera around.

I was afraid of that answer, maybe in TS4 they will make it easier.

My Current Family is called Royal, Started off with Madison, a YA who wanted to become CEO so she went to University and got her Business Degree, then met her crush "Richard Randall" he was a cute little nerd, they both fell in love

Current family is the Willow family, brother (Bruce) and sister (Jana), for Island Paradise. Jana now owns a five star resort and spends the majority of her time socializing with the employees/guests at the resort. She currently has her eye on the cute bartender at her resort. Meanwhile, Bruce doesn't have much of a social life outside of his computer. He spends his days playing video games, windsurfing, or chatting with Kailey online.

They actually started out as 'testers' for the new EP. But I decided shortly after to keep them and do something with them.

Current family: Bravo Family (themed after cartoon network show)
Bunny Bravo, the mother of Johnny bravo acts merely as a filler (in this playthrough) but tends to get in the way of Johnny's (mostly failed) escapades. Johnny Bravo is spending the majority of his time trying to "woohoo" and/or "try for baby" with every single female he can lay eyes on. There has been a total of 6 successes and 11 failures.

This play through is going to be short lived... like the rest of my "try for baby" with everyone playthroughs

I started a new family since I got IP, Well new legacy starter that is. Just a founder right now seeking out a merman to have her children with. She loves scuba diving and cooking and is trying to get a hand at mixology to entertain for guests but it's not working out so far. She lives on her house boat by herself at the moment currently by the Rocky Reef for that is all her level 4 scuba diving will allow.

well I am on a family. Just started them a couple days ago.

The husband name is Dixon and he is an adult and then his wife is Naomi. Then I am going to have them adopt cause the story behind them is they finding it real hard to have a kid. i set the chances of them having a kid with risky woohoo to like 2 percent so if a miracle child comes then good!

I hop around families and make them stir up trouble and drama. Make some famous and as they get famous they betray band members etc. mean girls at school vs loners. Play around. Ive never stuck with a family long term. I made a Tokyo once using different pieces from different places. It was cool. Their house architecture with the big walls was really fun to 'live-in' for a while.

im playing generations hade this save for a few months:

Stuart(dead) + Skyler(dead)
=Cassidy + Gavin (Married, Young adults)
= Michelle (child)
= Jayden (teen)

=Jesse + Rosa (married, Adults)
= Jessica (child)
= Owen (teen)
