[Build Mod] Floor tiles on ceiling/change look of ceiling

Hello everyone,
sorry if there is a thread like this already but I googled and could not find one.

With this thread I am asking for the feature we had in TS3:
We could put floor tiles on our ceilings and change the look of them. As far as I know we can not do that in TS4 at the moment.

Here are pictures which show what I mean (from TS3):

We could easily place floor tiles on the ceiling. Right now the ceilings in TS4 are always white and it really destorys the immersion when you are, for example, making a spooky crypt and then you have a pure white ceiling.

edit: It seems like this was also possible in TS2!

I agree! I remember in the sims 2 there was an option to toggle the ceilings on and off while the walls were cut away and build mode had a button to go into a 45 degree view so you got clear view of the ceilings

So I think it should not be too hard to add to TS4 too. :)

Please considere putting that in soon. I really miss it and its a small thing but bugs me big time.
I hope its possible!

  • This building on the outside has white ceiling. It should be the same as walls, shouldn't it? :|

    Yes. I can understand ceiling inside being white, but this no.

    Yeah it drives me nuts because it looks sooooo bad, I can bear with an inside ceiling being white but and outside one is just upseting
  • The camera won't point up, you can barely see the ceiling. I wish you could point it straight up or down.

    TS3 had the ability to paint ceilings with floor tiles (since the third EP I think) and that's a game from 2009.

    They should really add it. It feels like they've abandoned build mode.
