The Sims 4: Hollieween Build Challenge

Hello Simmers!

It’s been a while since I’ve created a build challenge and really wanted to get into the spooky mood this October!

The Hollieween Build Challenge has launched this week, so if you’re looking for a fun, creepy themed build challenge to sink your teeth into, look no further!

the sims, the sims 4 challenges, build challenges, the sims 4 build challenge, halloween build challenge, halloween challenge

The Rules:

  1. Roll the dice to pick your theme
  2. Pick any sized lot, in any world, and assign any venue type
  3. Roll the dice a second time to see which object you need to include*
  4. All DLC is allowed! No money restrictions! Custom content is not allowed (sorry CC lovers!)
  5. Upload to the gallery using the hashtag #Hollieween2017! Also you can create a speed build or a walk through and upload it to twitch, but I understand if it’s not possible to do so.

Check out the official video here!

I’ll check out each build live on my twitch channel from now until Halloween! You can feel free to submit your builds after that as well!

*The anti-balloon balloon item is from the Digital Deluxe version of the basegame. If you do not have this version, feel free to re-roll!

Add New Lot Traits to The Sims 4 with these Mods

Are you looking to expand the amount of traits that you have in your game even if you only have the base game? Well The Sims 4 Modder Endermbind has created two mods that do just that.

Adding the traits to your Lots is easy! Just click on the little house with the “i” on it which is in the top left hand corner of the screen while in build/buy mode and you can add the traits you want to your Lot.

Add New Lot Traits to The Sims 4 with these ModsMod One

The first mod has lot traits that eliminates particular needs on the chosen lot. These include the following:

  • Arid – Bladder
  • Hermitage – Social
  • Manna – Hunger
  • Pleasing – Fun
  • Immaculate – Hygiene
  • Invigorating – Energy

Add New Lot Traits to The Sims 4 with these Mods

By choosing any of the above Lot Traits means that all sims on the lot will have that particular need fulfilled. One thing to note is that these lot traits are a weaker interaction compared to actual Sim(s) traits and object interactions so in some cases you may find that trait is overrided.

To find out more about the Needs Lot Traits click here.

Mod Two

The second mod again is focused on lot traits and does work with the base game and comes in two parts meaning you can pick to have both parts of the mod in your game or just the one. These are broken into Positive Moods and Negative Moods which you can find out more below.

Positive Moods

  • Happy
  • Cofident
  • Energized
  • Focused
  • Flirt
  • Playful
  • Inspired

Add New Lot Traits to The Sims 4 with these ModsNegative Moods

  • Angry
  • Bored
  • Sad
  • Tense
  • Uncomfortable

Add New Lot Traits to The Sims 4 with these ModsLike the first Lot Traits mod, some of the traits are weaker than some Sim(s) traits and object interactions and therefore may be easily overrided. Negative Moods are weaker than Positive Moods so can quickly become overridden. Again the Moods do stack so you can select multiple Lot Traits at any one time.

To find out more about the Positive and Negative Moods Lot Traits click here.

Both of the mods are easy to add into your game. Simply download the file from Mod The Sims. Extract the files and then drag and drop them into your The Sims 4 Mod file. Once you have done that simply load up your game. Also don’t forget to make sure that you have Custom Content enabled and then you are ready to go!

The Sims Blog: Open Your Very Own Vet Clinic

1

Via TheSims.com!

Hello Simmers! Roll up your sleeves and get ready to work, because The Sims™ 4 Cats & Dogs* has arguably our best business venue yet. In this latest expansion, your Sims can open a Vet clinic and begin working as the local town Vet. In doing so, they can design the clinic however they wish in Build mode to match their personal style and hire a staff.

The Sims Blog: Open Your Very Own Vet Clinic

Naturally, give employees raises, fire and discipline them, or even force them to wear ridiculous outfits. Or, normal ones, but where’s the fun in that? Those with Outdoor Retreat can have their Veterinarians wear the bear suit!

Much of the action revolves around your Sim improving their Vet Skills, which is key because your Sims themselves are the vets. If you want, train the entire family as your staff to maximize the number of clients you can serve and save on wages! The first stop is the exam table. Here, your Sim will need to carefully balance the patient’s stress levels while performing tests to diagnose the issue. There are a variety of new ailments in the game, like Fleas, Gilded Guts Disorder, and Advanced Swamp Mouth. Once you isolate the cause, you can perform the treatment and collect payment.

Or, you can take a shot in the dark and see where that leads you. But, beware! Using the wrong treatment will cost your Sims valuable time, Simoleons, and heavily stress out your patient!

The Sims Blog: Open Your Very Own Vet Clinic

Some treatments are too complicated for the exam table and require surgery. Luckily, we have a robust surgery station to perform these complicated treatments. Your Sim can also spay, un-spay, neuter, and un-neuter pets as well. Sadly, pets emerge wearing the cone of shame, but don’t worry, it only lasts for a short time.

When not serving patients in need, your Sims can also craft new Medicines (or direct employees to do it) to sell in the vending machine, use on their own pets, or administer at the exam table to de-stress pets. There’s never a dull moment at the vet clinic!

Long term, pay to train your best employees, or unlock powerful new perks to improve your business further. There’s so much to discover at the vet, and so many ways to customize the experience to enjoy it on your terms.

The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs has so many new things to do, but we made sure players who love earning Simoleons and telling stories have a great new way to do just that as a veterinarian. This is a first for The Sims and we cannot wait to see what you think about it. Perfect that bedside manner and prepare some proper puppy care this November!
