Need Help Please with Clutter Items
Good day everyone! I am attempting to practice my building skills and am using the Immaculate in my kitchen. However, whenever I tried to place an item on it (for example the spiceduo boxes), the item keeps on snapping to the wall. I tried using the box from home decor and raising the item from the counter, but every time it moves, it snaps to the wall. How can I stop this? Is there a video that you can reference for wall snapping? Everything I found on youtube has not been addressing this issue. Thank yall so much!What would you like to see added in the sims 4?
What are your ideas that you really would like the sims to implement to upgrade game play. Personally I think it’s long overdue the vacation aspect is looked at! We need hotels, similar to residential rentals we need vacation rentals but on a multi lot scale not just one single house. For instance I’ve just built a campsite but like other sims where you used to go and get assigned a room, all staying on one lot, you can’t do this! It would be great if you could check in at reception and get to pick which room to stay in and at different prices. EA we need this!! look forward to hearing more suggestions fellow simmers! Jess
Share your Oasis Springs builds 🏜️
Like the title says, I'm really curious about what you've done with Oasis springs, both your builds but also the place. How many community lots do you have? What kind are they? Do you have any cool builds that you're really proud of? I look forward to seeing what everyone has done with the place.
Gameplay Suggestions: Extended Family, more Relationship Boundaries, and more
I'm so excited by the gameplay features released in Tuesday's patch and the possibilities expanding on these systems have for improving gameplay, so I wanted to suggest even more base game features that I think could be very useful. First, in Household Relationship settings where we have "Spouse", "Partner" and other familial relationships, I think there should be an "Extended Family" relationship for the Base Game. While I would love for the addition of "Cousins", "Aunts", "Uncles", etc. I understand that can clutter the UI and the functionality of all these roles would essentially be the same: ensuring platonic only bonds between sims and exempting them from romantic phone calls and attraction systems. As generations go on, if you share genetics, you should automatically receive the Extended Family relationship with each other. Plus it would be great for them to be included in the family area of the main UI relationships panel in game to make things like finding family to choose for Family Reunion events and more easier. I think this would be a great base game feature that can solve a lot of the awkward familial flirting that may occur. It would also be useful in story telling like if you wanted to start a save with two cousins living together, or an aunt or uncle who has adopted a nephew into their existing family, etc. Secondly, I think Relationship Boundaries that affect sim faithfulness could have a few more gameplay settings to help with setting Sim acceptance or rejection of various romantic advances in game with the Yes or No settings in the Base Game. "This Sim rejects non-physical romance to remain faithful" would control whether or not a sim in an established romantic relationship or marriage would accept or reject non-physical advances/flirting from other sims. "This Sim rejects physical romance to remain faithful" would control whether or not a sim in an established romantic relationship or marriage would accept or reject physical advances/flirting from other sims. "This Sim rejects Woohoo to remain faithful" would control whether or not a sim in an established romantic relationship or marriage would accept or reject non-physical advances/flirting from other sims. I think this would be great for complexity in trying to romance other sims and also adds unexpected drama and more surprising outcomes. I think this should also impact the Jealousy responses in the existing Relationship Boundaries system. If a sim rejects an advance, their partner should NOT get a jealous moodlet as has been seen in early access content, but rather get something more akin to an assured in the relationship moodlet and/or a positive sentiment. Thirdly, I wholeheartedly agree with TheEnglishSimmer's assessment of Lovestruck gameplay that if a sim finds your romantic advances a Turn Off, you shouldn't be able to still continue romancing that sim in that manner, and that the Furious sentiment should return. New Sentiments, could help make things more realistic and interesting. "The Ick" Sentiment where the sim's romance bar gets frozen at zero with the sim who is flirting with them, so they are unable to progress in romance while the sentiment is active. If a sim finds you very unattractive, you should honestly not be able to grow your romance bar with that sim. I think this could be fun too to encounter randomly in Base Game to spice up the game. "Furious" Sentiment where the sim's romance bar gets flipped to halfway in the red/hate, then frozen while the sentiment is active. If a sim gets caught breaking romantic boundaries to the point where they break up, it should be a little difficult to try to woo them back. You should have to grovel to get back into their good graces. "Us Against The World" Sentiment where the sims romance bar gets maxed and frozen in place while the sentiment is active as a result of a partner being reassured in the relationship by rejecting romantic advances or by doing many of their preferred Romantic Style interactions within a short period of time. Because really we love our sims to be in cute romances too. This was long but hopefully inspires the Sims Team to make this game we love even better. Thanks for coming to my Sims Ted Talk lol.
Summertime Thrills Game Pack
Summertime Thrills Game Pack (Information) Hello to all reading. This is my first time using the forms so I apologize if somethings are off. I had an idea for a game pack based around amusement parks. This pack in total would include 72 pieces of CAS, and at least 100 pieces of Build/Buy items. I tried making the CAS as equal as I possibly could, and even thought before launch it might be nice to have a couple updates to the base game. These would include a color update to the infants/toddlers floppy hats, sunscreen for infants/toddlers, swimwear for infants, and sloped pool entrances. Since the community has been asking for more diverse hair styles I think the unisex hairstyle that is available from toddler to elder should be medium length braided hair with beads. As this is a hairstyle that is suitable for most ages and frames. The CAS would be divided up as such; 13 pieces for infants, 13 for toddlers, 14 for children, 14 for feminine sims, 14 for masculine sims, and 4 unisex adult sim accessories. For infants there would be; 4 new tops, 4 new bottoms, 2 new one piece swimsuits (rashguard and swim dress), 2 new pairs of shoes (water shoes and sandals), and a new hairstyle. For toddlers there would be; 4 new tops, 4 new bottoms, 2 new one piece swimsuits (rashguard and swim dress), 2 new pairs of shoes (water shoes and sandals), and a new hairstyle. For children there would be; 4 new tops, 4 new bottoms, 3 new pairs of shoes (water shoes, sandals, and sneakers), accessory goggles, a new hairstyle, a one piece swim dress, and an outfit (oversized t-shirt,shorts, with backpack on the back). For feminine sims there would be; 4 new tops, 4 new bottoms, 2 new pairs of shoes (sandals and water shoes), 2 new hairstyles, a new maxi dress, and a new swim dress. For masculine sims there would be; 4 new tops, 4 new bottoms, 2 new one piece outfits, 2 new shoes (water shoes and sandals), and 2 new hairstyles. Lastly, the unisex items would include; 1 new hairstyle, 1 new face paint (new "dewy" facial highlight), 1 new necklace (a nonfunctional utility bag worn around the neck), and 1 new sun visor hat. New Lot Type; Amusement Park I am not sure how EA decides what makes it into a final game pack or not, however these are some of the ideas I had for the gameplay and Build/Buy of this pack. The rides/attractions included for the pack are; a log flume ride, the Gravitron, bumper cars, roller coaster, carousel, drop tower, two enclosed pool slides ( one curved and one straight), at least 1 kiddie ride, and a bounce house. The log flume ride could be a rabbit hole if need to save space. However, before the sim leaves the attraction a picture could be taken. The base game selfie feature could be reused and sims would "pose" for the camera while on the log ride with other NPC sims. The picture would then show up in their inventory after they resurface from the rabbit hole. When sims go down this ride or one of the 2 new enclosed water slides they could get the moodlet of "Wet and Wild" which would make them energized from going down the water slide. Or for a negative moodlet "Sad and Soggy" which would make them uncomfortable from getting very wet. Bumper cars, the Gravitron, and Bounce House were also other attractions that I thought could be rabbit holes since they are usually enclosed. Teen-elder sims who enter the bounce house and have the childish personality trait might also get a special moodlet boost. Toddlers and children who enter the bounce house can also gain movement/motor skills while using it. Now, onto gameplay. I have not set a specific amount of sims allowed on each ride as I am not a game developer. However, I have set age ranges of who would be allowed on the rides. The Gravitron, bumper cars, roller coaster, drop tower, straight enclosed water slide, and curved inclosed water slide will all be useable by sims child-elder. The carousel will be useable by sims infant-elder. The bounce house will be useable by sims toddler-elder and the kiddie ride(s) will only be useable by toddler and child sims. I say kiddie ride(s) because aside from it being only for children and toddlers, I have no idea what theme to give it. I also wanted to add a face painting station (a painter can be hired) for sims toddler-adult, with at least 3 different options to choose from. Games to play would include; water squirter race game, lucky ducks (for toddlers and children only), ring toss (can easily use Outdoor Retreat horse shoe animation), and balloon pop (can use dart board animation). Since I added water slides, I also wanted to add a couple more features to the game. Round pool floaties that can be used by children-elders, and baby floaties which would function like highchairs for the water and allow toddlers and infants to be in the pools. Possibly a new pool type could be brought in to the base game, a sloped pool. This would then allow the option for toddlers and infants to be in the pool with adults and wade toward the beginning. A horn (included with the pack) could be added near the deep end of the pool and would then turn it into a wave pool. Sims child-elder would also be given the chance to "Dive For Lost Items" when entering the wave pool. Whatever they do or don't find will show up in their inventory. These finds could range anywhere from broken objects to money. This pack would include a snack shack with hireable attendee. They might sell foods such as; popcorn, cotton candy, popsicles, funnel cake, snow cones, nachos, burgers, hot dogs, chips, french fries, pretzels, corn dogs, candy apples, deep fried snack cakes, and peanuts. Along with soda, fruit punch, and water of course. I have yet to draw concept art, but I am working on it at the moment if anybody is interest in seeing it!
If I had my choice of what I'd like to see in 2024
If I had my choice of what would be going on this year for new features, items and updates this would be my list Cemeteries, Groundskeeper NPC, Grim Reaper update & Funerals Groundskeeper/Undertaker NPC https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/1200x675/p01h6bdn.jpg http://www.hauntedmansion.com/images/secrets_graveyard_caretaker.jpg Funerals Pet Cemeteries too Weeping Angels Mausoleum build pieces Tomb Rabbit hole I wouldn't mind Zombies back as long as they didn't tear up the gardens The Grim Reaper still likes to play chess Bonehilda still has a crush on the Grim Reaper If a female Sim hates the deceased she'll come to the funeral in a red dress Gates get a new creak sound effect that can be added for increased creepiness Costumes as a plannable clothing category for Sims & Pets. Give us additional classic costumes for ex: Bride of Frankenstein Dracula Frankenstein's Monster Imhotep the Mummy The Invisible Man Lot Sub-Categories which help decide the types of NPC's that are attracted to visit, similar to how it worked in Sims 3.
