A Builder's Frustrations
Sul Sul!
I mostly build houses in the Sims. Occasionally I play but I find the game-play a bit repetitive so I just build houses and occasionally create sims. I have a couple of requests as a builder:
Please create a bannister to match every fence you create! Nothing worse than placing a lovely fence around a porch only to discover there is no matching bannister for the stairs.
Please create a range of curtains that will actually fit the windows you create. I hate that curtains just won't fit certain windows. There are times I want to use a specific window for my build and there just is no curtain or window dressing that will fit it. Super frustrating.
Please create more paintings for walls. There are a whole tonne of kiddy type pictures but not nearly enough variety for more mature wall decorations. I'd love to see a whole range of beautiful flower and plant pictures as well as more abstract and realistic, maybe even some impressionism paintings that I can adorn the walls with. I know Sims can paint these and put them on the walls, but when I build, I like to decorate the walls nicely.
I would love to be able to place stairs on an angle. In fact, angle building needs an overhaul. It's clunky and frustrating when trying to place furniture on the angle. Windows get elongated, cabinets don't click together, curtains go out of shape... it's a nightmare. And don't even get me started on roof placements!
Can we please have the ability to create ponds using the terrain tool? I loved that feature in Sims 3...
Upper kitchen cupboards to match lower kitchen cupboards.
And while we're at it... how about cabinets that match the bars so we can make longer bars???
I would like to add: Vertical half-walls. Let us build and connect walls half-grid
Roof gutters
ceilings textures and beams
Triangular shaped windows to put on the sides of A frame roofs
Curved fountain and pool pieces
modern/contemporary cabinets and counters with natural wood tones
less stylized ceiling fans and ones that include a light source.
normal sofas with normal designs and colors, with nice matching or well accented pillows
rustic iron fireplaces
So that's a few I can think of now. Feel free to add any you think of too.
