NEW IN V1.0.0 Early Access (02/22/2024) Public Release (03/12/2024)
Hi everyone. I hope you are all doing great.
After a lot of testing and playing I found that single goal aspirations sometimes make me lose track of what I'm doing with my sims having a few different long term goals can spice things up and keep them interesting. So I developed a complete Redesign of BetterGoals a mid point in Between Lifetime Aspirations and the original game style aspirations.
This is the New BetterGoals.
Each aspiration now consists of 3 to 4 long term goals of different difficulty that compliment each other.
This first update include 66 aspirations containing:
-
Default replacements for all base game aspirations.
-
20 new Base game aspirations.
-
4 New Seasons aspirations.
-
4 Get Famous aspirations (2 default+ 2 new).
-
4 Growing together default replacement aspirations.
-
1 New Kids Room Aspiration.
Coming Next:
-
All teenager aspirations: 10 (Growing Together)
-
Get to Work Aspirations: 6
-
Get Together Aspiration: 1
-
City Living Aspirations: 6

No More Flavors
Bettersims Originally had 2 versions one following the game style similar to a step by step tutorial, and one following a sims 2 style with only one long term goal. This meant that I had to re do the mod twice, fix bugs twice and play test twice making it a very time consuming and confusing process.
Now with only one version and the fixes I made I can finish making new additions faster and don't need to re upload new versions again and again.
Updates will only contain new translations of bug fixes.
