Welcome to VIVARIUM (v1.0)
After weeks of hard work, it's finally ready.
VIVARIUM V1.0 - Official Release
Vivarium is my first attempt at sharing my weird stuff with the world, in the shape of an inhabited custom neighborhood for TS2.
It's inspiration comes from the movie of the same name, "Vivarium", as well as the popular TS4 100 Baby Challenge.
It was also born from my annoyance with Family Aspiration sims and their constant wants for MORE children. So, I did what any sane person would do, and pitted them against their own nature.
Essentially, the matriarch, Ms. Violet, plays the role of Birth Mother to an entire town of male baby daddies, except there's a twist! One of the baby daddies has alien ancestry. The player successfully wins the challenge if:
They reach the 100 baby mark, using whatever means necessary (except adoption, of course)
They have an alien baby and therefore find out who the alien baby daddy is.
It is meant to be played like it's TS4 counterpart, with minimal tweaks to the rules. Kinda like, 100 Baby Challenge meets a Find The Alien in Disguise Challenge. The baby mama is also not allowed to have any sort of income, asides from child support! 🥵
Includes:
50 lots that look exactly the same, for insanity purposes. All baby daddies have the privilege of owning one, as Mr. Jack here is keen to demonstrate.
One very neat birthing station mommy homestead home for Mrs. Violet.
Including a real neat tree house in the back for your kids! Clearly, the children aren't the prisoners of this hellish experiment.
There are a total of 50 baby daddies in this challenge, 37 of which are normal sims, 3 are warlocks, 3 are werewolves, 3 are plantsims and 3 are vampires. It's up to you now to find out who the alien is!
Rules of the Challenge:
Please refer to the spreadsheet!
Mods & CC:
There are a number of Necessary Mods for this neighborhood to work. You will run into errors if you don't have these in your downloads folder. These are:
Custom Skintone Selector - You just have to keep this in your Downloads folder. It keeps the alien in his disguise.
No Sim Loaded
Smarter EP Check
Anti Redundancy
No Stray Respawn
No Townie Regen (search for "notownieregen.zip" to find it in the list)
The Necessary Mods in order for the challenge to be played, unless you want to play the challenge your own way! These are:
Child Support Controller v3.A - So that your birth mother can have a source of income while popping out all those babies
TeenStar PC / PC Omega 3000 - A PC that allows teens to move out on their own
Last Name Chooser (Baby) - So that you can choose the children's last name to be their father's. Note: Last Name Chooser seems to conflict with two Mods by TwoJeffs: "No Smart Milk Drag" & "Same Sex Marriage"
The following mods are Optional / Recommended, as well as some buy-mode cc included in the lots.
Hereditary Supernaturalism
Autonomous Casual Romance / ACR
More Realistic Genetics
Lot Imposter Lights
Thirstiest Bath Mats + Recolors
Maxis Match Wall Cabinets
I've also taken the liberty of including a spreadsheet for easy note-keeping.
Without further ado, happy birthing!

its been 12 in-game weeks. I'm on my 6th vial of elixir of life and baby 16 is on the way.
looking a little crowded, maybe?
all jokes aside, this challenge has actually taught me some very valuable info about the game that I didn't know before! so, win-win.

Vivarium Update:
Behold: Sophia, one of the offspring that came out of my playtesting today!
I've been making some changes and taking notes on what should be changed before official release, but it's all minor stuff. I take this to mean that the thing is close to completion!
I might even post the official thing sometime tonight!

An Update on VIVARIUM
I've finally finished making baby daddies! The town is essentially ready and I've made a spreadsheet to go with it.
This is our baby mama, Violet!
I've actually begun play testing it last night, and my lord😂 I didn't realize the challenge was this hard... It took me a full in-game week to get the first baby daddy to try for baby with birth mother 😂 repo man showed up on day 3 cuz I didn't have enough cash to pay bills! 😂
Adding some minor tweaks to fix some issues I've found while play testing. Should be ready for release in no-time!

Will be using my tumblr to document my progress as I build the Vivarium: a 100-baby challenge in an uncanny suburb-town inspired by the movie of the same name.
Essentially, the matriarch will be playing the role of Birth Mother to an entire town of male baby daddies, except there's also a twist: one of the baby daddies has alien ancestry. The player wins if:
they reach the 100-baby mark using whatever means necessary (except adoption), or
they have an alien baby and therefore find out who the alien baby daddy is.
This picture was taken some 2 weeks ago, when I first started trying out different terrains and town layouts. Takemizu Village turned out to be the best layout for this.
At that point, I still hadn't considered having the town up for download anywhere. It was strictly a personal project that I was trying to channel my crativity through and keep myself inspired, somehow.
Until which point I posted it on reddit, wondering what other people thought of the project, and I was bombarded by a multitude of "would love to see more on this, looks interesting", and "Omg are you going to upload the neighbor hood somewhere?" from people over there. All I had posted was the picture above, yet people seemed intrigued by the idea enough to request it to be posted, so that they too could play it.
So for the next week and half, I worked through removing as much CC as I could from the lots I'd already created!
So far, this is what the town is looking like. I've begun working on creating all the Baby Daddies, NPCs and Birth Mother. Two or three baby daddies down the line, it got boring, so I resorted instead to using the New Sim Randomizer and made a list of 50 possible baby daddies. No way I'm making 100 baby daddies to go with this.
Next comes working on the alien in disguise. I'll know who it is, so the "find out who the alien baby daddy is" won't really apply to me, as the creator, but I'm definitely going to be working for that 100-baby mark!
I'll keep you posted on any updates :>
