What is your strategy?

I've bought the video station and have been checking the trends. If i get, for example, a trend in "logic" i record a video of my sim playing chess using the drone...
Do you do the same? Has anyone used the recording cameras?

What do you do to make your sim famous?

painting a masterpiece, or write a best-seller
sing
act
play guitar, piano, violin
tell jokes
befriend famous sims

I usually buy the streaming drone and make sure it is following me 24/7

Thanks for the tips ?
@Globiddle23 does the live streaming raises fame? I have used and i noticed that it raises fans but haven't noticed it raising fame. Recording a video with the drone does raise game a lot. What is your expeeience?

I'm pretty sure streaming with the drone definitely raised my fame, as I've used this method exclusively while I go about my regular activities with my sim. It isn't exactly the fastest, but it doesn't take much effort haha

I'm the boring kind when it comes to fame. I love the fame system, and use it by cheating for my nobility and Council etc. Then there are a few regular famous artists, and I mostly do the acting gigs to build fame. I think painting might be the easiest and also well paid, in fact I think fame comes a bit too easy for someone painting but not actually wanting the fame. I know there are options when selling, which helps a bit.

I started making videos with a couple sims, but I kept mixing the online thing that came with City Living, and the Media Production thing that came with GF. I can no longer count the sims who has a media profile by mistake.

PS: I think meeting fans and attending community lots helps building fame, might need to be on a certain fame level for it to tick in, though. Perks can be useful, too, but I never paid enough attention to them.

I use the Road to Fame mod, because I wanted my Sim to become a singer. Then I enabled both the GF star-system and the RTF one. I had him play and sing in front of audiences at the Orchid A Go Go, capturing the moment on his drone. I also had him sing at the karaoke bars and compete as often as possible. Before he was out of high school, he was a Global Superstar. RTF allows your Sim to record albums. I would have him model, too, so that photoshoots (again via RTF) would put him on the cover of magazines. I had him interact with his fans often, signing those autographs and taking Selfies with them. When he gained enough hit points (100/100) he started being invited to throw concerts. He did this a lot. I also had him keep up with his Simstagram, updating it all of the time, uploading pictures from his phone. (A Sim gets fame+ points for this.) Just keep working it and get that first star, Notable Newcomer. Then work like the dickens and fill that bar. Use the perks you get once your Sim achieves a star. Be strategic in the purchase of the perk. Take whatever path you wish your Sim to excel at and go for it. Best of luck!

I have an actress sim who also does make-up videos on the side.

I mostly reserve fame for actors/singers/musicians.

Reading this thread though, I now want a famous author and painter. I didn't really know that was possible.

@DaWaterRat @marcel21 @Globiddle23 @Simmerville @GalacticGal @crocobaura @elanorbreton Thank you so much for your very valuable insight!!

My sim is a teen. He has the extrovert and loves outdoors traits. I've randomized an aspiration and he got the "be famous" one. My goal is to make him complete the aspiration.

I thought let's make him an influencer. But i now think it will be easier if he has another way of getting famous and do the media producing on the side... he worked in the creative aspiration as a kid, so even not being creative (per trait) i think i will make him follow his child dream and pursue painting. He will stream his painting sessions for his fans too. He already has 1000+ fans (just not fame stars yet ?)...
Thank you! ?
