LOL @Simmingal I've been a simmer for 22+ years, but I actually never ever expected to see a "ceiling thread" :) :) :lol: Such a great initiative, I will be glued ! :love:

Too bad I just wrapped up filming the Selvadorada episodes of my machinima series. Could have used the ceiling textures a week ago, then I wouldn't have had to go out of my way to keep the perfectly clean white ceiling out of the shots in my custom ancient temple. :DI haven't played the game since the update, but I'm definitely going to use this feature a lot. The white ceiling is fine for most modern buildings and even some of the not so modern ones, but special houses like the Goth mansion and the Granite Falls cabins require something a little more stylish.

I'll probably patch my game tonight, and I'm eager to add ceilings. But I'm also a bit nervous overdoing it in all houses, because back in TS3 this feature was one of the things that added significant lag to my game. This time I will probably restrict myself to main rooms or specific architectual builds where ceiling really makes a difference - like churches and castles and so on. I got a few so I will definitely keep myself busy :)

Let us know if you notice any sort of lag after going berserk with this tool :lol:

Was this change absolutely needed?
- Maybe not

Did I commit it anyway?
- Yes.

Can anyone point me to a video of how you can make the ceilings please? I'm finding them a bit difficult so a step by step would help! I've seen the icons and tried, but looking up at them?

Anyone else getting a little tiny bit of vertigo from looking at painted ceiling screenshots??

I just have that slight feeling of not knowing which way is up...

Come back, plain white ceilings, I need you to tell me how gravity works!

Spoiler

No, not really. I'm sure I will adjust.
