Ceiling colors?

I used to not care about that, most homes I know IRL have a white ceiling so I could live with it, but then I started building things other than normal homes and since then I can't stand the ceiling anymore xD

@GlacierSnow I hit tab and all the UI was removed. I pressed the up key and the camera moved around, but there was still no ceiling. I tried pressing a bunch of random keys and still got no ceiling. It's a mystery to me. :)

@Rouenpucelle That's odd. :confused: Are you using the Sims 4 or Sims 3 camera option (can change in the settings menu). I'm using the Sims 3 camera style. Also, I don't mean the up arrow key. I mean the key you would use to change your view up to the next level of the house. I play on a PC with a full keyboard, so for me it is the "page up" key. If you are playing on a laptop, it might be something different.

Sorry to everyone for getting off topic. I hope you don't mind. I just try to help when people ask questions.

@GracieO312 Your picture is a really good example of a place where those white ceilings look bad. It can be frustrating getting a good screenshot in certain buildings because of it. As @sofasim mentions, it's often the non-house builds or non-modern-house where it ends up being a problem. Modern houses often have white ceilings, so it doesn't look so weird. But other kinds of builds (like community lots or old fashioned houses) it can be distractingly bizarre looking. I'd definitely like an option to edit it, at least to choose different colors if not actual textures.

I am yet another hater of the plain white ceilings. The white ceilings aren't too bad in very modern builds, but if you're doing a log cabin or a castle or a gothic mansion or an underground burrow/bunker home...those white ceiling are just the most grating thing in the world! And it's not just in screenshots or machinima, but just if you like putting the walls up and zooming in while playing for a little extra immersion...BAM! White ceilings, ruining the atmosphere! I really hope they give us the ability to paint the ceilings before they're done with TS4, because the plain ceilings drive me up a wall...Pun intended...

I quite agree, we definitely need the ability to change the ceiling colors. Even simple recolors will do. I'm sick and tired of angling the shots in my story to avoid the ceiling.

Ceiling recolors. YES, please.

The ability to change the texture of the ceiling is one of the things I've been waiting for from the beginning. I build a lot and this white ceiling drives me to despair. By the way, it would be wonderful to be able to paint the roof from below.
