TS4 Galaxy Legacy Challenge
Hello everyone, as promised, I present to you the new challenge I created. It’s based on ten of the galaxies within the universe with plenty of opportunity to mould it to something you will enjoy. I particularly like the tenth generation. I hope you enjoy it! I also have a PDF version of the rules. The hashtag is #galaxylegacychallenge Please tag me @missim-you-official-cc-finds or @missim-you-official so I can see.
PDF Download
The Idea
We all live in this beautiful world and it’s the same for the Sims, too. But what is beyond that beautiful night sky? Beyond the alien planet that many have claimed to have visited? Do you have a fascination with space and time? Inspired by the zodiac? This is the perfect challenge then!
The galaxies around the one within which we live are vast and glorious, but I haven’t got much knowledge about them. This is as much to learn about space as it is to have insanely fun Sims challenges. There will be ten heirs in total. There are numerous galaxies beyond those mentioned in this challenge, so you can expand your challenge if you wish.
CAS
Use the colours of the galaxies to set a colour scheme for each heir in CAS or use it more as a metaphorical approach for their traits, romantic interests or décor within their homes. It’s up to your own interpretation of how you see the galaxies.
Rules
For the sake of this challenge, I will be creating my own colour schemes, trait lists and ideal career paths, but you can edit them to your own hearts’ content.
Start your game with only a starter budget for your Sims.
No money cheats are allowed.
You may use MC Command Centre.
You can use custom content.
Spouses can be anyone, within reason or otherwise noted.
Play on a normal lifespan.
Elements like traits, colour schemes, ideal careers etc. are only a guide. You may edit them if you wish.
Name your characters whatever you wish.
Works best if your characters remain either alien or human rather than vampires. Optional.
If you undertake the challenge I would love to see it. Share your gameplay on tumblr under #galaxylegacychallenge so I can check it out. I will include my gameplay at @missim-you-official.

This challenge is one that has been stuck in my head for a while, but I never really got around to it because of study getting in the way. These are just some fun challenges I like that helped inspire me to work on my own challenge.

Taking care of your PC is very important to keep it running at its optimum performance. One of the things you have to regularly do in order to maintain your PC’s eligibility is conducting a computer clean up. This can either mean digitally or physically. Digitally, you have to free up disk space in your PC, not just to have more space for future files, but also for giving your computer some extra space for valuable system resources and memory. Physically, conducting an actual clean-up will allow your computer to breathe easier and smoother, and to heat up less by allowing efficient air circulation. By doing both, you’re speeding up your computer, keeping it running optimally, and prolonging its life. As a computer user, it is your responsibility to know even the simplest ways to clean your computer. Here are five tips for cleaning up your PC.
Tip #1: Disk Cleanup
Perhaps the easiest way you can clean up unnecessary files is by running the Windows utility “Disk Cleanup.” The tool is very simple to use and it quickly does everything for you. It deletes stuff you no longer need such as temporary and cache files with just a click of the button so you can free up space in your hard drive.
You’ll find the tool in Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools or you can search for it in the search bar. Once Disk Cleanup opens up, choose which drive you want to free up some space in, check or uncheck the files you want to include in the cleanup then click “OK.” Click on “Clean up system files” to get admin access and delete even more files, and to get “More Options” for freeing up valuable disk space.

Tip #2: Uninstall Programs
There are many programs and apps in your computer that take up a lot of space. Uninstall those you don’t use or those you didn’t even know was there. Be careful though, some programs you don’t know of may actually be of great importance to your PC so try to find out what the program is before uninstalling it.
Windows has its own tool for uninstalling programs which you can find in Start > Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program or by searching for it in the search bar. The tool shows you how much space the program takes up, but it’s not always accurate because of other trace files. Click on the program then click Uninstall to delete it. The Windows tool won’t always get rid of all traces of a program though so consider using a third party tool.
Tip #3: Remove Programs From Launch
You might have already noticed that some programs immediately start up once you turn on your PC. These programs slow down your PC start-up so you’re better off getting rid of them. Don’t worry, you won’t be removing the program, it just won’t launch immediately from launch.
For Windows 7, type Win+R then go to msconfig > System Configuration > Startup and uncheck those you don’t need during launch. For Windows 8, you’ll find the Startup option in the Task Manager.
Tip #4: Defrag
Defragmenting your drive will boost the speed of your PC especially after you’ve deleted or moved files one too many times. Your PC usually does it for you but you may still see some fragmentation on your drive.
You can find Window’s defrag tool from All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter or by searching for it in the search box. Click on the drive you want to defrag then click “Optimize.”
Tip #5: Physical Cleanup
Physically cleaning up your computer is very important because all of those dirt, dust, and hair that gets trapped and accumulates on the inside of your PC’s system will prevent heat from escaping and discourage proper ventilation. This will not only slow down your PC but it may cause the PC to cook itself up from all the trapped heat.
To clean up your computer, use canned air to blow away all the accumulated dirt and dust. Although it may be tempting to use a vacuum instead for a more thorough clean-up, don’t because static electricity from the vacuum may damage the delicate electronic components of your PC.
