Cleggworth Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Hey everyone, I got the platinum earlier today thanks to families downloaded from @Malachen, @Naomie_Len and @NZBigC. Stellar work from you all and to anyone else who posted tips along the way they were much appreciated as well. I couldn't play the game in one stretch but I think if I could have I'd have been done in 3.5 - 4 hours tops 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got all the trophies for family 2 and killed one of the 2 from the married couple but after that I get kinda stuck on what to do next Are they at 100 friendship? If so, move one of them out to the lot next door using the phone to split household and move. Give them enough cash to buy the lot next door. Now the lot will load and you will have just the ghost. If you already got the career trophies with both then simply zoom out to the house next door and you should see the neighbour. If not, go round to the house and select the sim they are married to. One of the options should say invite to household. If it doesn't, then leave the person in this house and manage worlds from the main menu. Play as the original family again and choose the married Sim and select the Sim who should be in your house to move in. I will do a video on this asap. I hope this helps a bit though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then once it is at 100 you can kill one of them off and carry on with the rest of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainPrizun Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 This guide is absolutely fantastic and worked like a charm, apart from the get a million trophy but managed to brute force that by filling an empty lot with fridges, moving a single sim in from gallery as the neighbours and bulldozing but that minor inconvenience was massively offset by the ease of everything else! I can see this being doable in 2 (maybe under) hours if you get a good run at everything! Thanks again for everyones work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer360540 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 So I tried to find a random couple for the Black Widow trophy in the gallery. What I did was just use the same couple needed to get up to 8 household members. I then killed the husband of each couple, added the same couple and killed the husband so equal the 5 spouses needed for the trophy but it did not pop. Dont know if that method just does not work or it glitched out on me. But I hope this helps if anyone tries to try that same method! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm interesting, every time I have tested it the family has had 1 million simoleons and the rosebud trophy has popped. 2 hours would be possible if you could get a perfect run at everything but the game runs poorly with more than 2 Sims lol. 2 hours ago, drummer360540 said: So I tried to find a random couple for the Black Widow trophy in the gallery.

Popular Post Deluziion90 Posted February 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Managed to get the platinum in 11 hours also because I had no idea how the controls worked and I had to ask Malachen a bunch of questions . For anyone wondering how I got it as a complete noob I'll add my big long list of steps if anyone is not sure how to get the platinum. This is from someone who hasn't touched the sims in 10+ years. This isn't a #1 spot race guide but I'm very OCD to keep my profile as high in completion rate as possible so it's safe to say if you follow this your sure about the 100%. In no way I want to take credit or anything for this It's just that I got stuck with a lot of questions and I hope this answers it for some people who have doubts to start this 1/10 platinum. Step 1: check page 1 on Sims 4 guide. Add all the families from Naomie_Len, NZBigC and Malachen (see video how to do this) Step 2: Search in item name for "Triplet" sort by most popular. You'll find a blond woman with a guy who has tons of downloads. This is a 100% safe choise to get this trophy. Step 3: These sims don't have any needs no stress about toilets, food or sleep in my experience they always stay fully maxed green so take your time googling/youtubing when you get stuck on something So you've added all the families in your library from this point on you should be ready to go: (Always replace the families who live in the house never use the merge option) 1: Start with Legacy Family: Trophies auto popped - just afk Alphabet Legacy Legacy Player 2: Start Family from NZBigC Trophies auto popped - just afk Full House Games Within Games Cast Away Basketcase Introvert The Most Interesting Sim in the World All Nighter Beyond Repairs Smooth Talker Literal Genius Straight for the Jocular Green Thumb 3: Start Family from NZBigC with the grimreaper and 2 blond girls Trophies auto popped - just afk again. Hello, Darkness, My Old Chum 4: Start family from Malachen (Named Trop-Hee) Trophy auto popped: Rosebud (Replace the family as mentioned above dont merge some people have issue that this trophy wont pop) If it doesn't pop just go to main menu start a new game and try again. Everything resets when you start a new game. 5: Select family member Entertainer(She's called this way no worries you'll know who it is) - Have her talk to herself in the mirror Trophies auto popped (go grab a drink a whole bunch of trophies will start popping Ivory Tower Tungsten Chef Mischief Mastered Code Monk Mael-strum Fired Up Refined Palette Elementary It's Not Brain Surgery Tender Loving Connoisseurus Rex Bow-dacious 6: Select Writer. The following steps ignore all other sims and focus on this sim: - Buy an Insta-Large and Insta-lean potion - Drink the insta large potion. You'll get fat. Now drink the Insta-lean potion. You're thin again My, You've Changed! 7: Buy an inspiration potion on writer again. - Go to build mode - Buy yourself the most expensive computer (It has a pink keyboard but just check the prices) - Drink the Inspiration potion and select Write and go write a book. Doesn't matter what and title doesn't matter either - Wait a few minutes and the writer should hit the max Over-Achiever should pop. In my case it didn't. Just exit game and dont save and try again. My second try it worked. 8: getting all the skills trophies (Here I made some severe mistakes so follow me along: You can get this fast or just by afking. When you select a sim and check there trait you can see they all have 9/10 on something. The family members have there associated trophy name as there in game name Family 1 has the following trophies to obtain: Writer, Tech Guru, Secret Agent, Athlete and Entertainer. Example 1: Click on Writer. You'll see has a daily task to do. You can a) Complete this task and get her max fast or just afk and she will go to her work and get it anyways. If you want to do it fast you'll notice that some things can't be done because your probably in the small house. Just buy the needed thing for example the painter needs a canvas to paint. So buy a canvas, let her paint and your done. You can now go to the next sim for the daily task. (Do this for the whole family. Step 2: WORK HARD. When a sim goes to work you'll notice a really small white icon on there name. - Click on the icon and select Work hard. This speeds up the process. As these sims don't get sick or anything you should always abuse this to get the job done quick. Step 3: This is the waiting game. Your sims will go automatically to work so in the end you'll get all the trophies. Unfortunately some sims take some time and won't work every day. So just keep the speeder on max and wait there trophies out. Trophies that should pop if you've waited long enough: World Competitor Startup Upstart I, Spy The Pen is Mightier Are You Entertained? 9: Unlock a new plant type through grafting. ALWAYS USE ENTERTAINER FOR THIS! You can do this in step 8 while waiting for all the trophies! - Go to a computer and buy seeds - I used a cherry seed and a random plant. Best to select a vegetable and a fruit. Don't use the same type! - Entertainer should have seeds in her inventory. This went a bit buggy for me but you should cancel all her task and walk her somewhere outside in an open space. - Select the seeds you want and if done correctly the seed should be seen really small on the ground. - Click on the seed and select plant - Do this step for your fruit and vegetable. - Waiting game. Wait till these things are fully grown (that's why you can do this in step 8) - Select the fruit and choose: Harvest - Select the vegetable and you should have an option called Graft. When selecting graft you're done. Splice of Life 10: Have a Sim listen to all radio stations and watch all TV channels. This one really bugged me out and took me a while but thankfully I found a nice topic on the EA forums so all props to them for this. AGAIN USE THE ENTERTAINER! - "You need to make sure you have ‘The Landlord Whisperer” radio purchased, but you can use any TV for this. When you can, you’ll want to install the “Super Reception” Upgrade onto both objects. This will unlock all of the Stations and Channels. The list of Radio Stations is as follows: Alternative Blues Classical Electronica Kids Radio Lullabies Pop Romance Spooky Winter Holiday Retro (Unlocked after Upgrading) The list of TV Channels is as follows: Action Comedy Cooking Channel Kids Network News Romance Sports Fireplace (Unlocked after Upgrading) Music TV (Unlocked after Upgrading) Watch/listen to them all to unlock the trophy." Make sure your sim is listening to the radio and cancels the first station and is listening to the next station before you queue up a new station to listen to on the radio. Same for the TV. ------------------------- Ok halfway there. 11: Exit to main menu and select Trop-Hee family 2 from Malachen. - Follow everything exactly as mentioned in step 8 to get the rest of the skills trophies these are Astronaut, Criminal, Culinary, Business and Painter career Flying Colors Stellar Work Suave Criminal Captain of Industry Up a Notch 12: Painter and criminal are the ones you need. Rest can be ignored for now. These 2 are married and needed for some trophies. - Keep spamming Friendly chatting with them and focus on getting the green bar fully maxed out. - In this process build yourself a space ship and "woohoo" with them in the spaceship 50-Mile-High-Club 13: Painter and criminal max in love and friendship? Good lets continue - MAKE A SAVE!! This part kept failing for me and I still dont know how but thanks to this safe I could retry until the trophy popped! Select painter or criminal and press: L1+L2+R1+R2 typ the following: traits.equip_trait laugh - selected person is now a ghost. - Select the ghost. - Click bottom left on the mobile and choose split from househould. - make sure the ghost has around 30k with them to buy a house. - Now choose the land with no house on it to make this easy. - Loading screen appears. You should now have your ghost on the land with no house. - Quit back to the menu with the neighborhood. - Select the family with the painter or criminal (the one who still lives). - Loading screen. - Quickly select painter/criminal and zoom to the open land. You should see the ghost - X on the ghost and click to chat. - Go to more choices -> Friendly.. -> Keep selecting more choises untill you see the option: Invite to household. If nothing went wrong (this went wrong like 5 times for me before the trophy should pop Ghostly 14: You should be back in your househould including everyone. - Let painter and criminal Woohoo again. (Yeah have sex with the ghost weird people at the sims) What Would It Be Like? 15: -Start the Triplet family. - Speed everything to max - Real life options: Grab a smoke, grab a drink, go take a walk or just stare at your tv. - Takes a while but the girl should give birth to a triplet Triple Play 16: Have a Sim outlive five spouses - Start a new game - Check google or youtube or find out yourself how to do this as this takes a few steps - Create 8 Sims. - I created 4 woman and 4 man. Make them all married to each other. - Buy a small house - Create a swimming pool. - Let all 4 man or 4 woman get into the pool (I choose all man to make it easier for myself) - When there in the pool - Build mode - Build a wall around the pool - Just afk again and let all 4 man drown. - Save game. - It's some searching but you can add new sims into this family. - I created 4 man again and married them with the 4 widowed woman - Repeat steps, Sell the wall let the man jump into the pool and kill them off again. Black Widow and there you go my steps to get the platinum Ultimate Sim GuruEarn all trophies. 11 hours, 53 minutes, 19 seconds Edited February 18, 2020 by Deluziion90 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malachen Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) That is a nice layout there, I'll admit, mine is going on the fact you have either done the tutorial or played sims previously so this is real nice. When I wrote the original topic it was supposed to just be a quick thing to show people it could be done but it turned into a lot more than that lol. Doing a video guide at the weekend which should hopefully be foolproof. EDIT: Also the walkthrough I submitted contains some of these extra details as well. There are a few things such as the radio channels and TV channels I may need to add. Edited February 18, 2020 by Malachen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malandrins94 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Got the platinum in 15 hours thanks to Malachen and all the other people who shared sims on the community, big thumbs up for everyone! Also for the "Black widow" trophy i used a slightly different (and maybe longer) method. I made a new elder sim on the household with the trop-hee family and set it to married to one of the women there and made them woohoo until the reaper came for him. It may take longer but it works and hey, death from snu-snu is an honorable way for a sim to leave ?

Now thanks to you, @Malachen and @Naomie_Len this game can be done just by using the gallery, great work there. I also have a feeling that a few of us will have the sims 4 flagged, 5 people already send me some messages on psn calling me a cheater by having half of the trophies popping in 1~2 minutes. Until this method is well know by the community, we better save some screenshots and stuff just in case we get banned. My biggest fear, so I asked a CRT member for input. Basically it does exactly what a save file would do, EXCEPT it is an in game function repeatable by ANY user so...by those standards it should really be ok...I hope lol....either way I'll wait for reassurance for now, thank you for putting this together though So, received confirmation that this is indeed ok to do. Woot I'll see how fast I can go tomorrow. Edited February 19, 2020 by Asmund89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NZBigC Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 As much as I would love to take the credit @Deluziion90 , those families were created by @Naomie_Len I only created a Sim for the circle of life trophy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
