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.

Anyone else getting a little tiny bit of vertigo from looking at painted ceiling screenshots??
not really but i do find that those speed build videos always spin my head too much
so it could be the multiple camera angles 😅

PS @Simmingal it looks like there is a thing called "ceiling white" now
Yup it just doesn't show in catalog unless you copy it from existing ceiling which I think it should

one more ceiling for now
I forgot to post it yesterday
I was not sure what I wanted ceiling in this bar in Brindleton Bay to be
and I also felt like wood would be overdoing cause there is lots of wood 😅

but I figured this is still better than white so its like this for now
don't have the industrial kit so that could surely help when/if I get it one day

I was gonna do more ceilings today
but I realized that since the pack is releasing today
there might be some server traffic
and I don't want to be there to bog it just building ceilings or something when I could do that anytime 😆

Thanks :)

Took some time to adjust the lights right, too small for me to find the little buggers first to click on :D

I would love some starry sky too if I had flat ceilings or walls its so pretty
irl as kid I always had this awful white styrox style textured ceiling
that couldn't be easily removed or painted hated it so much
-crime against humanity really

these days I live in small log cabin with A frame ceiling all wood no paint and I love it so much I don't want to paint anything
best would be skylight but that comes with con of snow, lack of privacy, sunlight which can be deadly to vampire such as myself

Look up galaxy/star projectors. They look so cool. Some of them can be semi affordable around $40. The dirt cheap ones don't seem to get great reviews. I want one but would rather spend that money on video games or my cats. :lol:
