Major updates to the Random Trait Generator are now live!

Hey everyone! Our super awesome tech guru did a major update to our trait generator last night and hopefully it is working as intended now.

First off, adult aspirations are now generated for teens instead of adults.

Secondly, the bug that was preventing parents from having certain traits has been fixed.

Finally, we added a SECOND generator to the site, this one will give you all traits and aspirations at once (like the generator used to do). Several people had requested it back, so, ask and you shall receive. Both generators can be found on the menu above. The new generator is called “Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator (All traits at once).”

Here are the links to both generators:

A few updates

Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know of a few updates.

Most important of which is a fix to the Random Trait Generator that was preventing you from choosing a teenager trait to roll an adult. That has been fixed. You can now click the blue plus sign next to “Child Trait” to add a Teenager trait.
Since we’ve been getting a lot of questions regarding the trait generator, I have added some instructions to the top. You will notice that the Adult/Teen aspiration is showing up only under adults for the moment, which means that it won’t show up when you roll for a teenager. That is being fixed. In the meantime, just put in a dummy teen trait in order to get an adult aspiration for your Sim. I’ll post once that gets fixed.
Finally, I fixed a typo in the rule changes that made it sound like in order to get the Creativity point you had to do ALL of the creative dedications per Sim. You don’t. Choose one (painting, music, comedy routine, biography) per Sim.

Random Trait Generator update!

The Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator has been updated today. The updates are as follows:

The traits of the two parents are no longer locked with child/teen/adult trait levels, meaning that you can now freely populate traits in all three slots. For some of you who had founders with no child-friendly traits, you should now be able to correctly plug your founder into the calculator.

Next update: Adding a “Generate only one life stage” mode to the calculator, letting you only generate a child trait/aspiration, a teen trait/ adult aspiration or the third adult trait one at a time so you don’t spoil what all the traits are going to be when you do your initial generation, or worry about forgetting with the later traits were.
