Nothing was said about elevators.

So far elevators in sims 4 are only used in apartments and penthouse lots. We obviously can't use apartments with the new pack. but now that the team has confirmed that they won't let us use penthouses for the new lot type there is no reason to add elevators in the for rent pack. Unfortunately.

Hopefully we'll get some functioning elevators in a Hotels Pack.

that’s what i was thinking too, functional elevators might be a “feature” they’re waiting to use for hotels

Let's hope so. I'd love to get a hotels pack

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes our sims to go down 4 flights of stairs to get outside...

Does anyone know if theres speculation that we'll have elevators? I don't really want to build a four floor walk up :s

If they don't and you can (or want to) use mods - https://ravasheen.com/download/uplifting-elevators/

^That looks like a good mod, I personally haven't tried it though.^

----------

As @Atreya33 mentioned, the "Realm of Magic" portals would work. This excellent mod uses that teleporter coding to make functional elevators. It's not that difficult to figure out. I've made both elevators and "beaming transporters", (like in star trek) using this mod. B)

Can you imagine how long it's going to take our sims to climb all those stairs if we build a load of levels! They give us a cheat to build higher buildings but no elevators. Crazy. :#

A cheat to build higher? Never heard of that one before.

no- there is a limit.
I have dropped a room on a 4th floor from the gallery with luck but It was hard to do anything with it. @Atreya33

That's what I thought as well. I just wanted to ask because @Freckles1971 mentions a cheat for it.
