August 29, 2014March 23, 2020 weightlessmagic50 Comments

STABLES – 1 STAR HORSES – ADULT SIMS ONLY – PRIZES: 2 STAR HORSES AND 3LP

Once you have built the stables in the Need for Steed Quest you can built and clear the first arena which is horse tricks (read my guide to the stables post for more information) Once built 2 adult sims and 2 horses can complete this hobby at one time.

Send an adult sim to the stables, click on the horse and select:

Horse Tricks- 3 hours

After the time has passed come back and click the exclamation mark above your sims head to find one of the ribbon collectibles. Every time your sim does the horse tricks your horse tricks hobby skill level up percentage will increase, once you reach 100% you will level up, there are 6 levels. You need to reach level 6 to be able to unlock all of the ribbon collectibles, once unlocked you will be able to find them.

The table below shows the level up percentage:

This may change in future updates

LEVEL	Horse Tricks
1-2	50%
2-3	40%
3-4	30%
4-5	25%
5-6	20%

For example you would need to do horse tricks 2 times to reach level 2 from level 1

The next table shows you for each level what ribbon collectibles you unlock (so you can then find those ones too) and also the level up reward that a second and future sims will receive when they level up in this hobby:

LEVEL	TITLE	1st TIME LEVEL UP UNLOCKS	2nd+ TIMES LEVEL UP REWARD
1	Horse Servant	Take a Bow and Here Boy are unlocked in the hobby collection	–
2	Neighbourly Friend	Nod your Head and Kisses and Hugs are now unlocked in the hobby collection	250XP
3	Obedience Trainer	Stay Put and Meet and Greet are now unlocked in the hobby collection	500XP
4	Sideshow Rider	Rearing on Up and Spinning Pony are now unlocked in the hobby collection	S750
5	Trick Master	Back it Up and Look Away are now unlocked in the hobby collection	10,000 Town Value
6	Horse Whisperer	Say Hi and Shake your Head are now unlocked in the hobby collection. You can now complete the collection!	1LP

NOTE: only the first sim completing this hobby needs to get to level 6 to unlock all the collectibles, future sims will be able to find any collectible even if they are only on level 1 in this hobby!

You won’t find a new collectible each time, you will get repeats, if this happens just keep going, you will find them eventually! If it is still taking too long you can use the lucky spin on the row where you cannot find the item, this will cost LPs, when you click on the LP button it will clear the row and give you a random collectible on that row so you aren’t guaranteed a new item (you will get back any other collectibles you already had in that row) Need to earn some LPs to use the lucky spin?

The completed horse tricks collection is shown below, once you complete the collection you need to click ‘start a new collection’ at the top of the hobby collection screen, this clears the board so you can complete the collection again to earn more rewards (you will only get the option to restart the hobby collection when you have completed the collection):

You will earn XPs when you complete a row in the hobby but to complete the collection you need to find all 12 of the collectibles

The rewards for completing this collection are 2 star horses and 3LP:

The first time you complete the collection you will unlock 2 star horses, these are needed to be able to complete the horse vaulting hobby (check out my guide to horses for more information)

You will now also be able to use the 2 star horses to complete this hobby quicker!

From the second time onwards each time you complete the collection you will earn 3LP

The Sims Freeplay- Restarting a Hobby Collection

August 23, 2014September 1, 2020 weightlessmagic33 Comments

This is the same for any hobby, firstly you need to complete the collection as you will not be able to start the collection again if you don’t have all the pieces yet.

Once you have found them all it will tell you, then you will need to go back to the blue collection screen (where you can find all the hobby collections)

You do this by clicking on the sim info panel, find the hobby tab (second one) and click on the hobby picture (on a sim who is doing this hobby)

Once opened you will see the start collection again button at the top, click that and the collection will be reset so you can find all the pieces again.

When you reset the hobby it doesn’t reset your level, so if you were on level 6 you will still be on level 6.
