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!
