Generation German, Chapter Four

Hello, and welcome to the new Around the World Legacy. Or, in German, Rund Um Die Welt.

As promised at the end of the last chapter, my save file is now huge. The family needs to move. The town is full (of Edel's children) and story progression is killing people left and right. The legacy house is lovely, but too crowded. It's time to go!
Not only that, but it's time for some new mods. Okay, so CC ate my game alive a few generations ago, and I've been understandably scared of it since then. But I have custom objects now. I have custom hair. I have custom clothes and custom patterns (So. Many. Patterns.) and I have numerous Chimerees and Numerals. I even have a few minor mods.
And story progression has really sucked recently. So… I downloaded a few mods. I now have:
Twallan's Story Progression (plus almost all personalities) and Super Computer and Woohooer
Reaction Removers (finally!)
Aikea's Camera Mod

I'm still going to seed the neighborhood every generation, but now I don't need to use quite as many families. One or two should work fine. I've experimented a bit with the story progression mod and it's amazing! The neighborhood is alive! And it's so customizable. I wish EA could give us something like that.

So those are the new mods, but what will I do about my ginormous save file?
Do you even have to ask?

Welcome to Twinbrook, Legacy Family!

I brought all the paintings, and the ghosts (as you can see, Gummi dropped them off at the graveyard) and sculptures. I also brought some family members. No, not all of Edel's children could come, but some did. Faux and Frac are here, plus his favorite mistress, Lavender, and my simself. The rest of the family was left behind in Sunset Valley.

This is the new house. I spent forever building it, and it's still a bit small for our (projected) needs. I plan on adding on to it when the family needs it.
Downstairs is the front hall, with a bathroom on the left behind the stairs. To the right is the kitchen and small dinning room. On the left is the living room, another hallway, and two bedrooms with three beds each. Outside there is a pool, the garden, and a place to work out, plus the cars and motorcycle.

Upstairs is another hall. On the right are the two bedrooms for parents and grandparents (which switch off every generation) which share a bathroom. On the left is the study, laundry room, nursery, and another bathroom. If the family needs it, I plan to expand the nursery and add another room for things like the tattoo station, makeover station, sculpting station, etc.

Before moving I had the family sell all their businesses, which paid for most of this house. They had close to $3,000,000! I've never had a family that ridiculously rich (without cheating) before! When they got to Twinbrook they bought all the businesses immediately. I was surprised that they could afford to buy all of them so easily! Maybe we'll play around with this upgrading lots thing. If it costs money, the family will be glad to do it. After all that spending they still have well over $200,000.

Anyway, the family got right back to their normal routine... oh. That's the old house. Where are the pictures of them in the new house?

No.

No.

No.

Uh, guys? I seem to have, uh, neglected to take any pictures of the girls' childhoods in the new house. It's not like they did anything exciting. They worked on their respective skills - inventing, writing, and wasting time - for a day, then went to the cakes. I know this chapter is mostly me babbling on without any exciting pictures, so let's just skip right to it.

-ahem- Before long the girls were ready to grow up.

Gabe grew up... well, not ugly, I would say, but not the most gorgeous of girls either. I believe she added the perceptive trait.

Galle added hydrophobic (I didn't get to pick the girls' traits this time, since they all had Cs from just moving into town). I think she's lovely. She totally has that beach-babe thing going on.

As long as you don't view her from the side.

I thought Gummi was cute (in a Gwen Hadley sort of way) until I realized that she had the same exact face as her mother, and I had given her the same haircut (in my defense, it's hard to find one that looks good with that chin).

So I changed her hair. But I'm not to thrilled with her anymore. Not very unique, is she?

So I sent her off to learn to cook while Gabe registered as a self-employed inventor, and Galle became a self-employed writer.

And I leave you with pictures of our three neurotic (potential) heiresses, having a good freak out (except Gabe couldn't get out of her bed).

Ah. Nothing like a good scream to start off the morning.
