A week on The Sims Forums

Sul Sul everyone!

Long time no see! Coming back to work after a long break is tough, but writing the Highlights is always a pleasure! I have still been reading them as well as all the comments on holiday, and thank you again for all the lovely messages 🤗💞

We have no news this week, so let's jump right into the highlights!

The Moon shining over Gibbs Hill, posted here by SilverJanSims​ 

  • 🙈 We know that sims have a widely different version of privacy, and GalacticGal​ wants to know about all the times your sims have not known boundaries. One of the teen sims has been seeking his father for advice, and couldn’t wait for his dad to finish his business in the bathroom to ask him something. You know, just like any regular father and dad conversation… I haven’t really experienced it with my sims, but I’ve always disliked how neighbours feel entitled to literally everything in your home once you’ve met them. Excuse me sir, you welcoming me to the neighbourhood doesn’t give you a free pass to my fridge 😩

  • This week’s build is a tiny house from cbarber89​ , inspired by a real house, and it looks even better in the game! This house is not so tiny, as it is set on two floors and there even is a balcony on the first floor. It also includes an open kitchen and living room, and a double bedroom and bathroom upstairs. It is perfect for a single sim or a couple that doesn’t mind spending too much time with each other! There are plenty of windows that give a lot of brightness into the house, intensified by the lovely colours and tiles picked as decoration. Finally, there is also a neat little garden where your sim can enjoy a relaxing campfire at night time 🏕️

  • ⛵ Ahoy matey! ump1vintti​ is coming back with a new world project for The Sims 3 with Buccaneer Bay. For years, this tropical island has been used by the pirates to make all sorts of deals or hide their treasures. Now, the island is busy with charming locals as it is expanding with new businesses. It already includes an apothecary, with curious and (mostly) safe items salvaged from old shipwrecks, as well as an old library that includes ancient scrolls, books and tales about the old piracy times, a bakery and a lovely nectary. So let's put on our best pirate accent and let's set sail towards Buccaneer Bay and see how this new world grows over time. Yarr! 

  • 💃 atreya33​ is hosting a grand ball and needs your help! What would be the ideal location for this event, if you had to organise one, especially when you take into account all the… well, the weird behaviours that sim tend to have? A lounge, or a bar with some of the equipment hidden (such as the TV) could definitely work. As many said, the less distractions around, the better! Can you imagine hosting a ball in a park and having someone ruining your first waltz because they couldn’t resist using the fitness equipment or the monkey bars?! 😬

  • 👾 Finally, let's take about cheats: the game wouldn’t be the same without them cheats, and 9BrightHues​ wants to know what are your must-have Sims 4 cheats? I realize that apart from the good old motherlode and BB.MoveObjects cheats, I don’t use that many and I’m really missing out! The fire.toggle off cheat code would have been really handy to have at some point, in many of my games... 😰 The FreeRealEstate cheat is also popular, because our sims’ lives are too short to be spending them in boring houses! And of course, the cheat that fulfill all of your sim’s needs in one click is a true life saver. Make sure to let us know in the thread what are your go-to Sims 4 cheats!

And that concludes another week of Highlights! This weekend we are expecting higher temperatures due to a heat dome, so I hope my fellow Europeans can enjoy some sunshine and relax a little bit! In any case, let me know what are your plans for this weekend 😊

Dag dag!

  • Thank you for the Shout Out EA_Cath. One of the reasons I love this game, is the autonomy. Yeah, Joey just barged right in, then got embarrassed. What on Earth did he expect, it's a bathroom!  LOL

    Nice set of highlights, as usual. Congratulations to all those who were mentioned.

  • Welcome back EA_Cath​ me and my partner try to get as many breaks from work as possible so I know that first day back always feels worse 🤣 but very glad to have you back :)  thank you so much for the mention, and I'm very happy that you enjoyed my build, tiny builds have their own challenges but I think I did it justice :)
