You're the first person I've had mention the fonts. Was there a particular Era that was hard for you to read?

The Renaissance, holy god the Renaissance. Sorry if this comes off as rude, but that font is freaking obnoxious. Also GSF, and Stone Age and Early Civilization to a lesser degree.

I've changed the Renaissance font now. I find it interesting that Stone Age and Early Civ bother you, but the Roaring 20's doesn't. Would increasing the font size on those ones make them more readable (that's what I had to do with the 20's)?

A small update for Island Living and its corresponding game patch!

Change Log 7/11/19
Patch 1.52 Updates
  • Added the use of the “Off The Grid” lot trait to the suggestions section for the first four Eras.
  • Allowed the Fisherman part-time job starting in Early Civilization and onward.
  • Allowed taking odd jobs starting in Modern Day.
  • No restrictions on lounge chairs.

More Island Living Support
  • Allowed the Kava Bowl starting in the Stone Age and onward.
  • Allowed the Lifeguard part-time job starting in the Roaring 20’s and onward.
  • Allowed the Diving part-time job starting in the Roaring 20’s and onward.
    - I added suggested restrictions to each era regarding the diving tools and interactions. As always, these are suggestions and you don’t have to follow them if you don’t want to.
  • Allowed the Conservationist career starting in Modern Day.
    - You can, however, do various things to clean up the island at any time. You just can’t do the career until Modern Day.
    - Ex: Things like beachcombing for trash, cleaning up trash on the beach/water, and cleaning up residue left by the volcano will all help you clean up the Island without being part of the Conservationist career.
  • Allowed the Beach Life aspiration starting in the Stone Age and onward.

I wanted to thank you Snowie for keeping this going. I know you haven't had a ton of feedback, but I had taken part in this challenge in October 2015 (Fayeli on the Sims Forums.) I ended up getting really distracted with RL (got married and had a kid.) Finally had a chance to sit down and come back to playing. I was sad to see Cloudseeker no longer able to participate but so glad you picked up the torch. Looking forward to seeing what you've updated and altered; getting back to my roots in challenges. ♥

The other one

I'm giving this a shot but I had trouble downloading the empty worlds save, it kept saying the blog had been removed. I went looking for another one and found one here on MTS so just sharing in case anyone else is just starting out and needs a save file. This one isn't fully updated but of the 11 worlds I have installed, 7 are empty which is better than none.

Expansions and stuff packs and millions of kits, oh my! This update adds support for Growing Together, Horse Ranch, For Rent, Home Chef Hustle, and Crystal Creations, as well as a few general updates to fill in missing content and rebalance the Renaissance.
