Hobby Aspirations Bundle B

I added 6 more aspirations to Hobby category. I decided to upload it as a separate mod, so you don't need to have previous one for that one to work. This time I took a bit different approach to aspirations in general, so you'll see only 1 phase insted of 3 or 4.

New aspirations:

  • Art Lover - focuses on watching art and visiting museums, a few interactions were added to allow any Sim discussing some art topics (Friendly cat. > Interests > Art Lover)

  • Music Lover - focuses on listening to the music, the one from radio, but also live performances (listening to someone playing instrument or DJ mixing music). A few interactions were added to allow any Sim discussing some music topics (Friendly cat. > Interests > Music Lover)

  • Crafter's Journey - focuses on crafting anything that you can craft within the game (or almost anything: Sim can knit, paint, craft candles, make flower arrangements, use fabricator, robotics table, woodworking table, nectar maker, juice fizzing station, pumpkin carving station, pottery, tattooing, mixology, herbalism, apothecary, papercraft). I wanted this to be very generic aspiration for any crafting skill out there, so you can focus on only one skill, or you can mix. Only task about crafting items with Outstanding Quality  might not work with all because the game is not giving quality states to all crafted objects. Here also a few interactions were added to discuss crafting topics.

  • Lane Legend - focuses only on bowling, but attention - this one will be difficult to complete! I actually never managed to score Perfect Llama, so good luck ;)

  • Social Game Enthusiast - it focuses on all type of games (apart from video games). Following games will be accepted: chess, cards, simbles, don't wake llama, foosball, darts, horse shoes, arcade machine, ping pong, juice pong, sabacc, bowling. For this aspiration my Game Night event will be useful (although it will not be essential if you have City Living EP).

  • Fun Bucket List - this aspiration is the only one that has more than 1 stage - it has 5 stages! But due to UI limits, only 1 will appear in the aspirations window, so don't be surprised that you have the 5th stage after completing 4 ;) And as name says - it is a list of fun things that your Sim wants to do during their life. It was not easy to choose 20 things out of all Sims activities, I did a lot of lists and a lot of striking out :D I hope you'll enjoy it :)

Each aspiration has its own unique reward trait. You can check the details on the below images.

Is there a separated files version where I could delete aspirations relating to packs I don't have?

i
ilkavelle · February 22, 2026

There is not. But I read your comment earlier, and I have separated the Lane Legend aspiration, I just need to upload it. I will upload the new version when I finish with all mods - I still have around 10 mods to update to finish with this patch.

am I able to download this even without the required packs? like if i dont have a pack for an aspiration will that aspiration just not show up?

i
ilkavelle · December 8, 2025

It will show up, you just won't be able to make any progress. It's only for Lane Legend aspiration. All other will work for base game, just some objectives will not show up.

Beam / Glimmer · August 11, 2025

what exact packs does the bucket list aspiration require?

i
ilkavelle · August 14, 2025

I needed to come back and check at home, cause I don't remember :) So: Spa Day, Bowling SP, City Living, Get Together, Snowy Escape, Discover University, Island Living, Paranormal Stuff (or my mod for Seanse Event), Eco Lifestyle - but you don't have to have all of them to try out the aspiration, there are also some objectives base game compatible. You will should see only the objectives that will work will packs you have. If you see the objective, but you can't complete it due to missing pack - please let me know, it's just the human error that I'll need to fix.

Would you possibly consider adding pottery to crafter's journey?

i
ilkavelle · July 10, 2025

I actually have it already done. But I wait with release to update also for the new EP and apothecary skill.

hi I keep getting an exception of this mod saying its outdated

i
ilkavelle · May 2, 2024

Hi dear, I can't help without more details. The mod is for sure not outdated, but the issue can have many reasons. Firstly, are you sure you have the latest version of this mod installed? Do you get this error when there is only my mod in the game? Do you have the stuff pack with Bowling? If the reply for all 3 question is yes, then please send me the exception you get, so that I could try investigate it (my email: ilkavelle@gmail.com) Thank you! :)

HI! I love this bundle hobby pack! I was wondering...I don't have the bowling pack and since the bundle includes Lane Legends and requires the bowling pack should I not use it? Or will it be okay to use just for the base game hobbies? Thanks!

i
ilkavelle · March 30, 2024

Hi, you can still use it for the base game hobbies. The only thing is that if you choose Lane Legends aspiration, you won't be able to complete it (unless you cheat with codes ;) ). Only that :)

Love this! 💕 Would you consider full fledged (3-4 tiers) version of these? I enjoy playing though the chapters and have been searching for a crafting aspiration like this for forever.

i
ilkavelle · November 1, 2023

Thank you so much :) I will think about it, however I don't want to force having more tiers. For these topics it felt really a natural move for more to make it this way. But if I have some ideas that could fit the hobby approach, I'll surely expand :)
