Hey guys! I'm here with a spin on the BACC - but with TS2-style aging. I, for one, only play Sims 3 with TS2-style aging, but would still like to play a BACC in Sims 3. This is for all of you who would like the same! I hope you will try it out and post pictures of your games!


Rules:
- You need all EP's (If you want to play without all EP's you would probably have to adapt stuff in the challenge beforehand, so it is possible)

- You need a completely empty neighborhood - whichever you want to play in, but NO lots whatsoever, not even rabbit holes. (I'm playing in an emptied Midnight Hollow)

- You need a mod that allows you to play with TS2-style aging, where only the active household is aging - I'm playing with Awesome mod, but you can play with Nraas Storyprogression too if you like. No other people can move into the neighborhood. You decide how you want to play the families in town; if you want to play with a strict rotation or just play them for the amount of days you like.

- You might also want the Nraas Consigner mod so you can sell more stuff at the Consignment Store (once you lift that restriction - because you are not allowed to just sell stuff from your inventory that you have found around town)

- Aging span set to normal.

- This challenge is about building up a city from scratch and lift restrictions for each generation that grows up in the city.


Backstory:
One day you wake up..... but not in your bed. Not even in your house, or in your home town - you wake up in the middle of an empty lot. You look around, and all you can see is a completely empty neighborhood. Where are you? No time to think too much though, your stomach is complaining and you need a place to stay for the night...


Starting Out:
- Create a sim in CAS - could be male or female. Make the founder look however you like. He/she has to be a young adult. Move the founder into an empty lot, and build a house for the remaining money. No money cheats, and NO electronics, cars, smoke or burglar alarms yet.

- You now have to random which career/job path your founder will get - and random which restriction he/she will lift for the neighborhood. (Look at the lists further down this post). You then have to build (or download and plop into the city) a lot for the career you have gotten, so it is possible to go to work for your founder. A hint: Put the lot close to your founders home, since it is not allowed to use cars/taxis yet, so your simmer has to run to work!

- You also get to lift a restriction - random the list with restrictions, and the one you get will disappear!

- Now your founder will need to find a significant other to repopulate the neighborhood with. It may be a bit hard to find someone, especially since you can't call them on your cellphone (it's restricted!), so you have to strike quickly when you meet someone. (You are allowed to make the empty community lots set to "Visitors Allowed" so you can meet other people, but remember, no taxis around town, your sim has to run/walk herself)

- If you get someone else to move in with your founder, they CAN NOT open up a new career or lift a restriction. They will have to work in a career already opened up. It is only a child born into the game, who grows up to a young adult, who can open up a new career and lift a restriction. Remember that there is also restrictions on how many kids a sim can get.

Good luck!

The start of my game:


Here's my founder, Daniella Lane. She lives in an emptied Midnight Hollow (with a bright lighting mod)
She is a Bookstore Clerk and lifted the restriction of changing hair/makeup/clothing of other simmers in CAS



Daniella in her humble home! She's trying to grow her own food in her living room/kitchen.



She's painting the beautiful landscape in the neighborhood. :lovestruc



Her baby making partner! I didn't even get to ask him to move in with her, he left right after she got pregnant and I haven't met him anywhere in town since.
