My TSR challenge adventure

Failure is not an Option… Saturday, 26 July 2008

Dusty Roads is the target sim

Poor, poor Dusty. He has to experience so many of the ‘bad’ thing in the game. I just gave him a few extra heartaches to live through hehe.

I left the Run away from Home objective till last. Otherwise I had to wait until he went to college or became an adult before I could finish the other objectives. Of course the D report card objective you can only get while he is at school, so hurry up and get that out of the way. Easy peasy – Dusty skipped homework a few times, and missed a day of school.

Then I tried to get him to see vermin. It was all about carrying trash towards the trashcan, and then canceling the action so that it drops onto the ground. Even a stray dog kicked the trashcan over – I just left everything so that the roaches will come sooner. Eventually little Dusty saw them bugs – eeeww.

He brought a friend home from school: Shenene Collins. They were BFF’s before his birthday. So I got her to age up with him (new option that came with Free Time). Turns out she’s a romance sim. She broke his heart. He eventually lost a fight to her new boyfriend. I had to cheat to give the beau a higher body skill that Dusty.

Needless to say he did have a lousy birthday party, it was a disaster actually. Rainee started making out wit the mailman. I didn’t want to have his relationship with his parents too low too early, in case he runs away before I completed any of the other objectives.

Visit from Repoman is easy as well; just don’t pay bills for a few days.
While parents had off days I worked on their relationships with other sims. I planned a grand finale for when Dusty decided to pack his bags. Rainee and Sunny both invited townies they were good friends with. Then I made them kiss their friends at the same time. Dusty nearly got whiplash from gawking at his parents. But his lifetime relationship was still too high with his Sunny. So I made Rainee break up with Sunny. He left the house (I found him again later in the sim bin in neighbourhood view). Wasn’t long and Dusty said that he had enough and he’s leaving.

Objectives completed!!

*** Tip leave free will ON, otherwise Dusty won’t run away. It’s an autonomous action.
