Do you use the Moo (moveobjects on) cheat for other than just moving the furniture around?Maybe you even build completely new objects by moving and lifting different objects together?If you want to try yourself:Open the cheat console: press and hold Ctrl+Shift+CEnter: bb.moveobjects onLifting objects: press the 9 keyLowering objects: press the 0 keyYou can also hold the ALT button when moving objects around with your mouse, so they don't snap to the grid.(Keyboards in different countries might have different keys that need to be pressed. For example, I have to press the SHIFT key in addition to lift objects)Once I had been so excited for that plant pot from Growing Together that I couldn't wait until release day and built one myself ^^'I also added the mouse hole 🐭That was fun!

@OzSimsFamilyThis sounds so amazing and I'd love to see screenshots of the progress or the finished garden.And I think sharing your experiences and asking will help you keep going. And I too think it will be worth it in the end.But I also must say that, even when I don't finish a build (and there are many ^^') I never regretted building it.I always learn something new and I get new ideas from the things I've learned.Building is one of the few things that keeps me focussed (I have ADHD) and I can dive in so deep that I get into a flow and forget about time, my troubles and pain.So building is never lost time for me ^^Here are a few pics of my ingame waterfalls, also placed with MOO. If I remember right, they come from the Island Living and Cottage Living buydebug.The waterfall in the second and third pic is also raised from the basement because it's bigger than the pool.

@LennyOggThe recycler! Haha, no, didn't spot that, but of course that would produce the perfect animation.The move-up from the room below trick has helped me a lot, too. Here's an imperfect example where raising the object from the room below wasn't feasible, on account of this build being an oil rig that sits on a pool. With no room below, there was no grid to help me orientate, so I opted for the imperfect look as a compromise between visuals and too much fiddling.Still, seeing my sims clean the oil pipes was fun:

Just a tiny detail but with moo you can layer your own pictures in the frame that comes with the basement treasures kit. The pink frame has a picture of my sims. I really wish this was a frame we could put on any picture.

@EnkiSchmidt oh my you still remember the claw machine? That was August 2022!It is even (semi) functional and once Vlad spent the whole night clawing that Ewok for Ji Ho :3It's a room with windows and columns and I moo-ed the Get to Work 'science machine', the Eco Lifestyle recycler (you can spot it when you zoom in. Right next to Vlad's feet ^^'), two drawers, that box shelf and lots of Star Wars toys together.

@EnkiSchmidtThe idea with the oil pipes is really cool! (I wish they also came in less funky colors though ^^')How to “repair” a car:I raised the car from the pit below to avoid routing issues and placed a small fridge and a toilet under the car.If you click them to upgrade, it seems you are repairing the car :3Here Jeb is restoring a car:

I'm not a builder, really, so I am happy to admire everyone else's builds,
and what they can do with MOO , or just generally creative no CC solutions . 😃

The builds that you have posted pictures of are lovely! @LennyOgg 🙂 They are very creatively designed. The waterfalls are very pretty.
It is true that we can learn a lot through building and working on ideas, however they work out. We can find out new things as we try out things in a new way or look for solutions.

Your oil rig build is great! @EnkiSchmidt 🙂 It is very creative the way you used the woodworking tables! It is a great idea.

Your guide to how to repair a car is great! @LennyOgg 🙂 It would feel that it really is being done in the game. The way that you have designed it is great! The furnishing of the garage is very nice. It is great photos of Jeb restoring the car.

A little fun project was the towel rack in Kiyoshi and Jack's wine and cheese cellar.
I used the base game wooden frame, towels and the little goat from Horse Ranch 🐐
Everything can be foud in the Wall Deco section.

The towel rack is very creatively designed! @LennyOgg 🙂 It looks great the way that you have designed it and put the items together. The goat is sweet! It is a lovely wine and cheese cellar.

Since the slots on the shelves are placed so weird, I used MOO a lot to decorate our Corner Store.

Your furnishing of the Corner Shop using MOO is so very great! @LennyOgg 🙂 It is very detailed! The design is very nice. Very lovely and creative displays of items on the shelves and on the tables, and the vending machines corner is great.
