There was something so hilarious and menacing about Bess coming to the lot to swindle Semaj out of more money, only to find him standing in front of an almost empty lot with a pile of valuable items on fire behind a safety fence, and Semaj just like "mind your own business, move along now"

I feel like the collector's aspiration also helps with dumpster diving, but could just be my luck. Also, the spell that generates food makes a plate that can be put into the dumpster and generate items. You could have stayed on your home lot the entire time. Using the bottomless trash lot challenge also helps the dumpsters stay full.
@anska74752 жыл бұрын
Then we were both lucky, my sim with the collector aspiration got really nice furniture out of the dumpsters too. Being on a landfill lot is also helpful, because people sometimes dump very valuable appliances and electronics.

When the potion of plentiful needs malfunction, it sets all of your needs to 50%. Unbreakable objects and those made unbreakable thru upgrades can't be affected with any destructive magic like incinerate or electrify. Repairio can improve the quality of things that you fabricate on the wood working table. The herbio spell create a random plant, BUT, it only create plants from the base game and realms of magic. There is a mod that allow the creation of some other expansion packs. Have a random wall to hang pictures and paintings. Burn it. Repairio it.

I wonder if you could make a full household of eight sims and just have them churn out books. Like a book writing factory of sims.
@DoveJS2 жыл бұрын
You could do that. Also have a household artist factory. OR if you have Get Together, have the book factory household create an Artist Club, buy a bunch of easels, and have your challenge Sim on a Digital Art pad when the club is at your lot and that Sim isn't writing books (so you can buy club perks like Inspiration moodlet and gaining art skill faster, that sort of thing.) That said, from CAS you have to create a household with exactly one Sim for this challenge, it won't let you start with an 8 Sim household or even a 2 Sim household, so you'd need to add Sims to your household either through gameplay or manage worlds. And don't forget the yard sale table/yard sale wall from City Living so you could get the mark-up on the art (if you had the writers make copies of the books, you could sell those on the table too but I think you'd need to keep the original to continue making copies.)
