Sims 4 Chat and Q & A *new question*

I always have so much I want to talk about regarding sims 4. Because I play this game every day :o . Im actually going to start playing only on nights or weekends, because I let Sims 4 take up to much of my productive time I could use doing other (real life :smile: things )...BUT I really enjoy this game!

Anyhow, this is a thread, for us to chat about what we're currently doing in our games! And ask questions of other sims 4 players o:)

So you guys, is anyone running a business? Im thinking of building a small flower shop for my sim! I have no interest in running a restaurant , at the moment but a flower shop would be neat and fun! :)

    As has been said, because there's no win situation, I don't consider it cheating but simply a means to an end. When I play instances where my sims need funds to buy the house (or subsequently any additions), I look at adding a large percentage of the property value as a mortgage, then calculate a repayment scheme with appropriate interest depending on the family unit. I use 'cheats' most of the time when the base game doesn't have anything to cover what I want my sims to do.


    I really wish the game would add mortgages! It would solve a lot of my dilemmas! Im going to keep suggesting it be added as an option until it happens! @aldavor
  • What I ended up doing eventually was just building a cheaper home they could afford and its still a super cute house! :smiley: I cant cheat! I dont want to because it ended up being boring @AriaMad2

    That’s okay! You do what makes you feel comfortable. Maybe when your sims start making money, you can build it up more and more!
  • Lately I have been really into UFO shows and Aliens and what not.. So, I decided I am going to start a new save and make an alien. My alien will have landed on Earth to study the humans, and do experiments on their DNA by mixing it with her DNA... Maybe she will even become a vet so she can research the animals too. Oh, and a gardener so they can study all the plants... Ooo and an archaeologist so she can study minerals. I wonder how the rest of my sims will handle this new alien in their world :#

    I think I may even make my alien a celebrity.. Has anyone had a famous alien yet?
  • Hey, so rotational players! How many families do you guys rotate between? Right now I have two. But I think I was to rotate between 2 more! <3
  • I am trying to go through a save rotating to every family eventually. It is hard though, as I start having fun with one family and don't want to leave them. Then when I do, I feel reluctant to as I don't want the game to play them while I am playing someone else, so I save them and start a separate save for the next family. I have mcc for story progression if you were wondering. At this rate I will end up having too many saves, but disabling story progression is not something I want to do as that is why I got mcc in the first place. lol One of these times I am going to leave a family and not make another save and see what happens with the family lol.

    You might ask how can someone have too many saves? Well I find the more saves I have the less likely it is that I will get back to them.
  • I dont want story progression, so playing rotationally doesnt change too much. It does keep my sims progressing in their careers while im not playing them though! Which I like! :)

    With the MCCC mod, households marked as Played don't get affected by the story progression. I've marked all the premade households as played while working on my template file, and so far I haven't seen any marriages or deaths (I also have aging turned off). So maybe something like that so your rotational households are immune from story progression while the rest of the world changes.

    I started with two and now have six! I was going to start a couple of the families just to have more variety for future spouses and can't let them go to just be NPCs.
