I think “disappointed” wouldn’t be strong enough a word to describe my opinion on the Caliente refresh, especially since the Calientes are my favourite household from the entire series. So I’ve remade them, my style.
No CC, base game-compatible
“It’s no longer girls-only now that Caliente matriarch Nighat has agreed to welcome Nina's mooching boy toy Don into their fiery abode. With a house full of gorgeous ladies, including awkward bookworm Luisa, will Don remain faithful or will he get involved with more than one Caliente?”

Yes, I'm still alive, and I've brought a new trait!
Base Game compatible!
If your sim would rather be at home than anywhere else (like me) and gets anxious when out in public (like me), this trait would fit perfectly!
With this trait, your sim will always be happy (+1 Happy) when at home, or on any lot he/she/it/they own (except a business, because public), and will be anxious (+2 Tense) everywhere else.
This is a simple trait; just these two buffs. It doesn't conflict with other traits, at least not from the games I have (and I don't have any modded ones).
Have you ever wanted to play with Berry Sweet Sims? Perhaps a rainbowcy, but felt like there wasn’t much direction? Well then this is for you! Follow a pastel rainbow through 9 generations in this colorful challenge!
Find The Sims 3 Version Here!
This is my first time creating a challenge with actual rules, so go easy on me XD You’ll find it’s a very family oriented challenge. Loosely based on my own It works best on normal life span but if taking more of a storytelling route, you may wish to extend to long. You can skip baby stage if so desired. Babies... am I right?
This is a Sims 4 challenge but a Sims 3 version will release eventually, so stay tuned!
Berry Sweet Sims are designed after tasty treats or snacks, but you can also use names from any Color Finder / Color Wheel. Since this is also a rainbowcy. I suggest using a sweet name as your legacy surname and then you can use what ever first name you like.
You can roll for genetics with dice roller: 1-3 Parent One Genetics 4-6 Parent Two Genetics.
https://www.random.org/dice/
Q: How does the dice roller work?
A: Hi it’s just something you can do if you want more realistic genetics. The Sims 4 genetics are really wonky and you can easily have a baby born with blue hair and yellow skin when your parent Sims are pink and peach…So if you use the dice roller. Say 1-3 on the dice would be your pink Sim’s genetics and 4-6 would be your peach Sim’s genetics. You would roll tree times to determine the child’s hair, eye and skin tone.
Below the Mates are referred to by color THIS DOES NOT NEED TO BE THEIR NAME
You will want to roll for:
Hair
Eyes
Skin (Optional if you prefer to play Banilla*)
*Banilla = Berry Hair / Eyes + Natural Skin Tone
You will need CC Hair, Eyes and or Skin I suggest @noodlescc
You can edit your Sims genetics by using the cheat cas.fulleditmode
If you have trouble keeping colorful hair on your toddlers and children follow this simple guide! If you have questions please ask!
If you want to give this challenge a try please at me @berrysweetboutique and use the tag #BerryPastelRainbowcy I would love to see how you interpret this challenge. I have a blog just sitting around collecting dust, so I’ve re-purposed it to showcase your posts!
BerryPastelRainbowcy
Remember these are guidelines below, but if you need or wish to change anything to fit your play style, feel free to modify!
Most importantly have fun!!
