This thread is for those of you who are looking forward to the new GP. Or at least willing to entertain that it might be a fun pack. Although I've seen and enjoyed all the movies I'm not a big Star Wars fan but I am interested in seeing how this plays out.

The highest a sim can go in this game?In the screenshot it looks as if the rocketship rises even higher, but I think they both vanish from sight at the same elevation.

I'm back to posting here and of course what I post about is my ongoing Star Wars gamepay, with or without the actual pack.My sims got challenged to a Walker race (nothing more exciting than seeing an AT-AT slowly waltz along a straight line, right?) for which I found this gem by DrGluon on the gallery:Check it out, it's perfectly live-in able thanks to clever use of the Realm of Magic teleporters (or just plain old cheat-teleport).I placed one on the plane crash lot. Don't worry, neighbors, the Empire is here to protect you!For a while I had the perfect coat for my First Order officers. It goes over the regular uniform with minimal clipping. This picture was taken inside the AT-AT cockpit.Unfortunately the last update broke the coat. (Sims already wearing the coat still have it, but it doesn't show up in CAS anymore, so I have to use MCDresser to copy it over.)Since the coat is an accessoire, it can get combined with any not too bulky top. Just don't be surprised if your superiors don't take you serious if you wear your Alderaan sleepwear t-shirt for breakfast!A screenshot of a combatent using force-throw to hurl their lightsaber:To do this, you need to move the camera into the other sim until they fade out. Then change to cameraman mode (TAB) and zoom back out - the faded out sim or object will stay invisible. I love to use that trick for screenshots.

Shortly after the battle of Crait, Finn confronts Kylo Ren in Black Spire, on the planet Batuu. He has no chance of defeating the Master of Ren, but just enough willpower to drive the dark side adept away. After the encounter the city is safe for another day.Meanwhile the First Order seems to have changed its approach to ruling the occupied planet. Is that General Hux hugging local children?!And what's with that scarily human-looking droid in the white shirt?Finn's triumph changes into sorrow, when Poe tells him that BB-8 broke down and that the pilot is about to get a new one. How cold and distant the friend has said this... And why is Poe running around in the First Order district in that bright orange flightsuit, that marks him as a target?Finn seeks out Master Savi, who councels him that he shouldn't walk around after dark anymore. Savi shows Finn what he takes for a safe place to spend the night. But what Finn will see in the safehouse will change his life even more completely than having defected from the First Order.EDGE OF DETROIT is a picture story that I'm writing with my Star Wars sims. I start posting tomorrow, if you're interested: Edge of Detroit (At the moment there isn't anything to see under this tag.)

BATUU RESOURCESI decided to compile a short resources list for everyone who wants to jump into Star Wars and/or Batuu gameplay but is annoyed by the restrictions. This list is meant to give some basics to beginners. There are way more mods and cc around, but the ones in this post are those I use myself and can answer questions about.Before we start, do we really want Rey to be without Finn, Rose and Poe, Kylo without Hux and Vi Moradi without Captain Cardinal? From Anakin Skywalker to the pregnant force ghost of Darth Vader (not joking), almost every Star Wars character is in the gallery. Lots of ready to use builds, too.A gallery version of Finn showcasing the perfect t-shirt to go with your visit to Batuu!The basics: CheatsYou'll want to have testingcheats active before entering the other cheats.To build on the three premade lots:bb.enablefreebuildTo find and use the Batuu deco in other worlds:bb.showhiddenobjectsbb.showlifeeditobjectsIf you still cannot find something, type "debug" into the catalogue search and more objects will appear. The X-Wing, TIE-echelon and Falcon require this approach.Reminder that the space ships are functional everywhere, I took one to the summit of Mt. Komorebi and it looked awesome! cas.unlockbytag GP09 will give you access to the Batuu outfits instantly.Droids will follow sims around in other worlds, if you shift-click on them and then choose "follow protocol". They can even enter shallow water (tried it in Tartosa).With testingcheats enabled, shift-click on a sim, find "pack cheats" -> "game packs" -> "Batuu" and you can set your reputation or give yourself the Batuu items. This is useful if you have a specific backstory in mind for your sim. I think the white kyber crystal is unobtainable, but you can get it from build/buy on your homelot. "give batuu items" is mainly useful when you are already in Batuu.The advanced options: modsReminder: Always make a copy of your "saves" and "tray" folder before introducing new mods to your game. When you no no longer want the mods, delete the file localthumbcache in your Sims 4 folder.The most important mod to create immersion is the one that gets rid of the enforced Batuu outfits. With it you can wear tourist outfits or individual Star Warsy attire. Wear whatever on Batuu.There are many mods that unlock the complete CAS including all Batuu outfits. I use this one. It isn't automatic, but instead works by shift-clicking on the mailbox, so you can choose which households should have access to the full CAS and who will have to work for their unlocks.Rotational players will find that Sims 4 doesn't load inventories of other household sims, thus making it impossible to duel your own sims from currently inactive households with lightsabers. This mod enables dueling, but be careful, the sims really enjoy this activity. My diner has become the local lightsaber fencing hotspot whenever two lightsaber owning sims spawn there.An orange swatch for the BB astromech droid can be found here: BB-8There are several mods that enable occult powers on Batuu so that your dark side adepts can throw around force lightning or properly duel each other. I used this one for a long time.Need a sim to appear on scene RIGHT NOW? Maybe your Rey/Kylo is stuck or you want to have your pet despite the game not allowing it. Then the teleporter statue is your friend. Without a control pets mod having animals in Batuu is not recommended, however.The statue also has a new function directly added to the menu: "Just go away" makes any sim leave instantly. (At least I think that one came with the statue, correct me if I'm wrong).Sims teleported in via the statue can get added to the household by shift-clicking the sim and then choosing the "add to family option". In this case they will still have their complete inventories, so if you want a laptop or Freeze Ray in Batuu, this is the is the way to go. Be mindful with streaming drones and mini sheep/goats, please, they tend to get lost in the regular worlds a lot already, Batuu isn't an exception in this.Other useful mods are TOOL for moving objects off lot (I place public toilets in all districts) and All cheats enabled to destroy stuck objects via shift-clicking. Get both here.And finally my perhaps favorite part:Tired of Lt. Agnon, Vi Moradi, Rey and Kylo Ren? With MCCC you can have Tarkin, Vader, Leia and Luke instead. The options "complete sex change" and "import tray sim" allow you to change the appearance of the iconic npc while fully retaining their functions.Just keep in mind that MCCC is a complex mod. Definitely study what exactly it does and which modules you want before you let it do anything in your game.

The only TS3 expansion I own is Into The Future so if I can have that experience again I'm all for it.

I hope it's entirely separate from the actual game and I can just portal to it and never see Nancy Landgraab jogging again.

From this pic it looks like we can actually build spaceships similar how we can in the base game. Notice the blowtorch and protective mask...

https://statscmain-10b33.kxcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/screen4.jpg

OMG this pack looks so cool to me and I barely know anything about it yet! Hopefully they've included some things or kept gameplay open enough for the Sixamians!

So those ships will probably work like the rocket ship...

Looked at the picture to see the spaceship building action. Ended up thinking much longer about how I hope that the boots and fingerless gloves are separate items and not part of a full body outfit. :D

@CAPTAIN_NXR7 Probably... I doubt we would be able to drive them directly which is unfortunate but they still look cool!
@telmarina I really think they've nailed the SW aesthetic and it looks great! I would have loved a more generic scifi pack but this still looks pretty cool. Hopefully they have included 'clean' swatches as well as dirty looking ones on the CAS and BB items but I won't hold my breath...

Is it weird that I now really want a Marvel cross over after seeing these screens?? I'd love to recreate Guardians of the Galaxy... we technically have raccoons too! It could definitely work...

EDIT: Rocket isn't a raccoon though, my bad! :lol:

I understand why some people say that they wish TS4 had come up with it's own lore. But from the info we have the gameplay seems much less linear than StrangerVille. For example, I for one have no idea who Ben & Rey are and I don't really care (although I'm sure they are deserving of a happy ending), but at the end of the day SW is just a tale like many others, it has the good, the bad and the greedy and I think we will be able to mix it up and play it in a way that makes it our own. And I enjoy the cyberpunk aesthetic.
