Events not about Cooking
Hi, My sims dislike reading books, cooking and making drinks so it would be nice if some of the next events could be focused on the other skills : Video gaming : Event with new video games Programming : Codefest event Logic : Quizz event or Escape Room Photography : Photography contest Mischief : Event adding new powers to the voodoo doll Fitness : Sport event
Lot trait: Solitude
I propose a new lot trait that prevents NPCs from autonomously interacting with the active Sim or with each other. If the active Sim initiates an interaction with an NPC, the NPC might react, but not return an interaction of their own--kind of like IRL when someone clearly wants to be left alone and gives politely terse responses to interruptions. This trait could be especially appropriate for venues like parks, national parks, museums, libraries, and others where people tend to go to get AWAY from others. What do you all think?
Things in 2025 I'd like to have
Here is a comprehensive list of things I want to see in 2025. Note: Life & Death isn't out yet so somethings may end up in that pack. Build Items Abandoned/Haunted House Build Pieces Amityville Horror infamous Windows Bent & Rusted Wrought Iron Fence w/ matching but Spooky Gate Boarded Windows Broken Conservatory Window & Windowed Ceiling pieces Broken Staircase build pieces Crumbling Brick wallpaper for foundations & Chimneys Deteriorating Doors (Interior, Front & Back Door) Fireplace that looks rather sinister. Perhaps with grotesques or wolves carved into it. Gable Brackets & Trim work that look weathered Grey and worn wooden picket fence with the occasional broken slat and a matching fence Mossy Slate Tiles Texture for Roof Porch Light that flickers Shake Shingle Roof Texture with missing Shingles Screening for Porches ripped and dirty Screen Door damaged and dirty Shutters uneven or falling off Torn & Worn Curtains Vine Covered and Worn Mailbox to match the aesthetic Window with Shutter askew Attic Access Ladder for modern homes and Victorian style Attic with aged staircase Awning tool with quite a few colors & styles Glass Awning preferable in the Art Nouveau style Belfry & Clock Tower Build Pieces https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o19YuGdtvRE Bells toll at 6AM, Noon, 6PM, Midnight Westminster Chime Cedar or other wood Gable Brackets for Cabins Coat Closet Single Tile Closet Acts just like a Coat Rack & Umbrella Rack Open the door and a light pops on in the closet Conservatory Build pieces for a more Victorian Style (Don't Forget the Cupola) Elevator Shaft like in Sims 2 Flying Buttresses French Trellis for Gardens Garage Build Pieces Driveway pieces Curved Straight Garage Door Raises & Lowers Parking Spaces Invisible for Residential Shown for Community Lot Update the Decorative High School Parking Spaces so that they are functional AND can still be decorated Gingerbread House Build Pieces (For an actual Sims House build not the confection I mention below) - "Nibble, Nibble Like a Mouse.

For example a Sim has a simple bed that goes with the decor but you have the Simoleons to pay for a much better mattress you just click on the bed and select "Buy a new Mattress" then a list of amounts pops up and you select how much you want to pay and the level changes the energy and comfort level of the mattress. Birdbath Add Water - Interaction Add Bird Animations Clean - Interaction Dump Water - Interaction Make it gradually look dirty Buffet Table & Dining Table with the Tablecloth. Add more seasonal table cloths Anniversary Autumn Baby Shower Christmas (Snowflake Day) Diwali Easter Graduation Halloween (Spooky Day) Lunar New Year New Years Eve Oktoberfest Spring St. Patricks Day St. Valentine's Day (Love Day) Summer Thanksgiving Winter Christmas Tree (The one you actively trim) Rustic - Red & Black Buffalo Plaid look for cabins and rural homes Black Trimmings for more goth homes. Emo folks like the holidays too Day Spa Update Can we please make the Day Spa a Paparazzi Free Zone. It doesn't make any logical sense to allow them to be snapping away, Spas are private businesses. Seaweed Body Wraps please Vichy Shower for the Body Wraps Dog & Cat Beds I honestly would love to the depths of most to be able to tuck them in. Like I do with my own little ones Add Put "Name" in Bed Door Update Set as Back Door Set as Door to Garage Set Wreath (Front Door Only) Autumn Day of the Dead Diwali Garlic Funeral/Mourning Lunar New Years New Baby New Years Snowflake Day Spooky Day Spring St. Patrick's Day St. Valentine's Day (Love Day) Summer Winter Exercise Equipment Sims who aren't bad or messy will wipe the seats down on Gym Machines after use Faucet Update Add R/O System - So that water coming out of it isn't unsatisfactory to picky Sims Fireplaces Add Clean Interaction Add Change Flame Color like Sims 3 (Bonfire, Campfire, Candles, Fireplace, Torches) Add Garland to Fireplaces with Mantles Add Stockings to Fireplaces with Mantles Fix the Auto light to not come on until the temperature outside is below 40F Gate Add Creaking Sound Affect No Sound Affect Grandfather Clock, Cuckoo Clock & Mantle Clocks Wind Set Chime Ode to Joy Westminster Whittingham Chimes at 6AM, Noon, 6PM, Midnight Grills I'd like it if you use the grill a couple of times it gets noticeable dirty Animation for using the grill brush to clean it Add Instrument Tuning Cello Guitar Harp Piano Violin Make Curtains & Blinds expandable by half squares for width Mermaid Update Bassinets Deep Dive Zones and the ability to follow the Mermaids there via Scuba Diving Surfing Skill & Mermaids are great at it Waves Radio Station Update 20's 40's Bluegrass Broadway/Show Tunes Carousel/Carnival Egyptian Cultural Music Fortune Teller French Pop German Bavarian Music for Octoberfest - Recommended Song Ein Prosit Haunted House Sound Effects Hindi Cultural Music Reggae Rockabilly Zydeco Topiaries Lighted Versions of all topiaries Blue & Clear Clear - Cool Light Clear - Warm Light Green Orange Pink & Clear Purple Red Vacuum If you run the vacuum in a room where another Sim is sleeping they will wake up Vampires Update Vampires cannot wear silver Jewelry Vampires fear all-white horses and pure white horse will be fearful of all vampires and will know they are vampires immediately. This is a reference to the Dracula from 1979 starring Frank Langella. This is also Vampire lore accurate. They used to take all white or all black horses into cemeteries and make them walk across the graves. If there is a grave the horse refused to walk over, then that is where they determined a vampire was resting. I think it might be cool for evil Vampires to make flowers wilt when they pass by Vampires and Ghosts get a dance animation exclusive to just them. When slow dancing with another Vampire or ghost they will start hovering in midair while doing the dance. Vampires have a favorite Plasma Type Unlockable new Vampire Power - Eclipsing Fog just like Sims 3 Parasols will help to shield a Vampire from the Sun for short periods If there is a hospital Sims can go in and donate plasma. Vampires on the other hand hand can go in and choose to steal or purchase plasma from the unscrupulous. (Only Lovers Left Alive Reference) I would like it if fastidious neat freak Vampires would have an occasional dusting of their coffin & maybe spray something like Febreeze inside it, just for laughs Sims will get the feeling they are being hunted like in Sims 3 If Burglars get introduced Vampires will always attack a Burglar - They always win and when they do, Yum. Like staying in and ordering Take Out. (In fact that would be a wonderfully morbid moodlet) Chance to make the burglar their minion. Forgotten Hollow should get its own Cemetery Lot & Bell Tower Werewolves Update If they don't already have this Werewolves should have the "Smells Like Wet Dog" moodlet after they shower. Werewolves cannot wear silver jewelry or hold canes with a silver handle Weather Update Fog - Light Fog Pea Soup Fog - Thicker fog Eclipsing Fog - Thickest and Supernatural in Nature and a part of a Vampire's learnable powers. Allows a Vampire to walk freely in the daylight but only briefly Sandstorm for Deserts & Dust-storm for dry area📍 Venue feedback
Hi, The venues are always the same ones in every worlds, 23 worlds later it would be nice to add new venues to the basegame. Museum and Library aren't places to have fun. Park, Bar, Lounge, Dance Club and Gym there are enough of them now. IRL people also hang out in these places : Arcade / Fairground Bistro / Brasserie : Bar/Café with waiters (no host, no chef), just go to a table and sit. Casino / Gambling Club Cafeteria / Canteen / Fastfood Restaurant : Literally the NPC Stall vendor doing the job inside a building Circus Market Place : Selling local products Movie Theater : Watch movie trailers and buy popcorn before the movie. Actors and directors could come for the movie premiere. Playground : Venue for Child, toddler, infant and their parents/nanny. Shopping Street / Mall
Retro Pack
I was thinking that a retro pack would be a great addition. By retro I mean objects, game play and cas items from older sim games revamped and put into a pack for sims 4. The classic dancing from sims 2, the burglar and cops, the gardener actually putting fruit & vegetables in the refrigerator instead of household inventory, quilting, sewing, hobbies from sims 2, being able to build to the edge of our lots, orange trees, and the list goes on. I'm certain my fellow simmers could fill in loads. Thanks for listening.
Trying to like/love Sims 4 and I think this could help
To start I find Sims 4 unplayable with out extensive tuning mods, this game as-is is very frustrating (and more customization should be held in the gameplay options/settings). I never modded Sims 3 till after all the EPs/SPs came out, as I found it was a very playable game even without mods just using cheats when needed. I am a Sims 3 player trying to like/love Sims 4 but there are definite blocks and possible patch updates that could remedy this. Background I am a fan of Supernatural so I bought Realm of Magic, Vampires, Werewolves, Paranormal, as well as Life & Death (this was what lead me to to give Sims 4 a chance), Crystal Creations, etc. More cross patch friendliness. I got Outdoor Retreat for Herbalism and Bug Collecting but was very sad to see bugs are only in that one vacation world and that their inventory thumbnail is the same image (I found this very lazy and loved how bugs where handled in Sims 3). Skills should open like in Sims 3, I want to see skill statistics and challenges, as well as seeing what I unlocked besides they one time pop up notice. Skills feel like they lack substance in the GUI. More layering and mirrored jewelry. There is an arm band in Realm of Magic that could be layered with bracelets but it won't let you (it takes up the bracelet slot) and there is a bangle bracelet with rings that would really be great if it also came mirrored with the left hand. Too many build/buy colour swatches don't match, I tried to match Realm of Magic with Life & Death furniture and the wood colours don't match and it is very annoying. If you are going to take Create-A-Style away at least have the build/buy brown/red wood colours match cross patch wise. This is probably a not possible but I really wish the Magic Realm had 1 residential lot (on it's own floating island) and that we could edit the Magic Realm for custom HQs. Crystal Tree is not on the Gardening Notebook which I found sad that you can research and it not be noted :( I want to be able to edit/customize a town before making households like in Sims 3. The Grim Reward eyes option for Vampire form only would be nice instead of having to be both exclusively. When all else fails don't stop cross pack compatibility and play catch up with the past ones not yet providing this. Lastly NPCs/Townies need to back off, if I do not know them I do not want them bugging me or my Sims. The interrupting interactions and intruding on 1v1 conversations is really turning me off the game I am probably not your majority player base but I think I should have a chance to voice my wish list that could help me like/love Sims 4 or I might just give up, stop bothering and stop buying packs.A Few Suggestions for Kitchens, Gardening & Cooking etc. for 2025
I enjoy cooking in my real life and I love to try new things. I am very impressed the fact that Sims 4 has really has gone out of its way to add a lot of new international recipes that we have never had before. I honestly believe that this is fantastic a form of representation that we really need in the game. So in this spirit I would like to add an enhanced version of an earlier list of recipes I had posted. (My original Post is giving me weird error messages.) I also added country of origin to make it easier to place the recipes in packs. It's a pretty long list so the overview is: New Cooking & Baking Recipes along with Juicing and new Tea Blends New Harvestables More Purchasable Spices Kitchen Enhancements & Appliances (Home & Restaurant) Appetizers & Snacks Bacon Wrapped Dates Chicken Wings BBQ Buffalo Garlic Parmesan Lemon Pepper Louisiana Rub Mango Habanero Teriyaki Chips (Corn Tortilla) with Guacamole Deviled Eggs Fried Calamari - Italy Fried Cauliflower Fried Green Beans Fried Pickles Grilled Octopus - Greek, Very commonly served in Greek Tavernas Jalapeño Poppers Lahmacun - Turkey Oysters on the Half Shell Oysters Rockefeller - New Orleans, Louisiana, United States Pemmican - Cree Nation?

The houses in Life and Death
The people who designed the houses in the Life and Death Expansion Pack did a fantastic job!! I just wanted to say that because I have loved all of the houses and buildings in that pack. They are all so thoughtfully planned out and have so many details. Also, everything about that pack is perfection. Great job!I Like To Request Objects?
Where do I go to ask EA developer’s on a object that I want in Sims 4 for PC? We have some music instruments but really need, DRUM set Flutes Harps Trombone Saxophone Trumpets base guitar clarinets (Spelled) symbols (Spelled?) tambourine all types of musical instruments for an Orchestra! Please need to do a Orchestra rock band and so much more! sorry for any misspelling!💡 Ideas > ♻️ Content from The Sims franchise

Alarm Clock on Cell Phone
Please consider adding a settable alarm clock in the cell phone workflow. Something that each sim in the played household can set individually to remind them of something e.g. On the day of a sim's birthday as to remind the parent to remember to go to an outing or restaurant. It might be set for wake-up time in the morning. If set, then the sim would sleep throughout the night without waking up. Take into consideration the exclusion of the scenarios: the monster under the bed, a vampire visiting for a drink, sim needs running out, etc. And more...
Disabilities
I've been playing The sims since the first edition. I played The sims 2 from 2005 to 2021 and I've been playing with The sims 4 since 2021. I love a lot of the new content, especially the possibility to have polyamorous relations and the scars and medical devices. That said, I'd love it if there was more inclusion of disability in the sims. The hearing aids are great but it would be better if you could have real deaf sims. It would be awesome with we could create or birth sims with only one leg or who can only go from place to place in a wheelchair. I know it has to be a big challenge but we'll soon be in 2025 and I think it's doable. I'd get it even if it was an expensive pack.
Casual Romance Conversation Options Gone?
Hey all. I started playing this after buying and installing the Love Struck pack, and there were a group of options for casual romance. I LOVED THIS!! Was that part of the game? I keep the game modded for several reasons. First and foremost that shopping cart. I already own everything except a couple of the lowest level (5€) items that are of no interest to me. The knitting couldn't be resumed last time I tried. And last week, in a 5-hour gaming session, my one gal was abducted 7 times. The bearskin rug from Love Stuck caught afire 3 times in front of fireplaces that were fireguarded (no fix for this, just move it farther away). I just wish I had a fix for the rocketship upgrade resetting when you save and exit the game, then re-enter the next day, and the books and knitting resetting when you leave the lot, and sometimes when you sleep. Sheep not being able to be sheared - you can just reset the object, and only one type of gate will allow you to lock-out the foxes but lock-in your critters. So, did anyone else have the conversation options grouping called "Casual Romance"? When I bought and installed Life and Death, that disappeared. It was disappointing, because the Sims 4 feels like it was designed by two groups: People born in or around 2000 and people born around the 1940s. The sexual repression in the game is disgusting for me. I'm a gen-x, and we women fought hard to have sexual freedom. This game forces me to romance people, before I can get into their britches, regardless of whether I play a man or woman - and for both of these this is an antiquated mentality: repressive and wrong to force on people. The game should not be forcing a certain set of moral standards on players, or send messages to females that the values set by the male patriarchy still apply to them, or telling males that they have to toy with women's hearts to get what they want. It can be negotiated like adult human beings. I just want to tumble with them, not have to win their hearts. It does not promote the idea that women can be independent and unashamedly in-charge of their own sexuality. And it ALWAYS comes back on the women....Separate Molding And Paint Colors
I would love to see the ability to pick wall coverings where I can pick the paint color independently from the wood molding. Similarly to be able to choose fabric colors on furniture independently from the wood parts of the item. Not even necessarily on all furniture that has wood and fabric but at least some options. Coordinating colors in a home can be challenging, especially when you have specific wood tones you're trying to stich with as well as colors you're matching and the combinations available can be limiting. Adding this feature would make designing buildings easier as well as allow for more unique styles in an interior that are still cohesive and harmonious
