sylvan_glade | ◈ Frequently Asked Questions

1) Who runs this blog?

That would be Autumn Dies-Irae! If you’re interested in my Simsona, I’m an Ambitious/Creative/Cat Lover Sim who works as a scientist.

2) What version of Sims do you play on? What content packs do you have?

I play on the most recent version of Sims 4, on Origin. I have the following content packs: Seasons, Cats & Dogs, Get to Work, Vampires, Dine Out, Parenthood, Laundry Stuff, Toddler Stuff.

3) What is a ‘legacy run’?

“The Legacy Challenge tasks you with creating a single founder Sim moving them in to a giant lot, and starting out in abject poverty. Your founder must build their house, build their wealth, and ultimately bring in the second generation to continue when they die. In this challenge you play a single family for 10 full generations.” (Source)

4) What is a ‘berry sim’?

Created by BerryPie27, Berry Sims are colorful Sims, often with thematic skin colors, hair colors, and names. For the purpose of the #notsoberry challenge, Sims do not have to have skin colors and names, but should still try to have themed clothing and homes.

5) What is the #notsoberry challenge?

6) Are there any modifications to your run of the challenge?

Yes, these are listed on the CHALLENGE INFO page. The largest modification is due to myself lacking specific careers or personality traits from certain content packs.

7) How do you tag posts on this blog?

I tag posts by generation and Sim name, as well as the official #notsoberry tumblr tag, the #simblr tag, and the Sims4 community tags. CC is tagged with #sylvancc. Miscellaneous mod posts are tagged #modpost.

8) When do you officially transition from one generation to another?

When the heir of the next generation becomes a young adult - before then, I will post about them in their character tag, but will continue to tag it with the previous generation until they are no longer a teenager. This is to keep in line with the descriptions of each heir, which refer to them as adults. You will also know the transition occurred since the colored banner on each post, the blog description, and the blog colors/pictures will change to match the generation’s theme.

9) Will you continue using this blog for new challenges after the #notsoberry one is completed?

I would love to! I have a few challenges in mind, including CAS Challenges and other Legacy Runs!

10) Where do you find your CC?

Mostof my CC and mods are found from @plumbeeccfinds, @petalscc, and @bramblefinch, and others I find via the Simblr tag! A few others I picked up randomly from YouTube and Sims forums, like the four-column CAS mod and the MC Command Center mod. If you have any questions about specific CC, send me a message!

11) Where did you get Peppermint?

Peppermint’s real name is Toby, and he was created by paintbottle on the Sim Gallery!
