The Sims 4 Ideas (2024)
Trait System Make it two types of traits: Zodiac Traits and the traits in the current game. The Zodiac Traits can be further divided into three parts, please refer to here. Society System Make it three types of societies: Present Society, Future Society, Ancient Society. Each type of society matches and restricts its own society functions, clothing styles, goods, house styles and occupations, etc. After every 112 days, the game changes the type of current society automatically and cycles infinitely. Building System Add half-tile walls and platforms, walls and platforms with a height of 0.125 times, walls and platforms hanging down from the ceiling, buildable prominent window sills, vertical sloping walls and platforms (22.5 degrees per rotation), rain gutters, cabinets for ancestral tablets, more single-tile sliding doors and functions of rotating objects horizontally and vertically in a discontinuous manner (22.5 degrees per rotation). CAS System Make it a discontinuous voice slider (mid-value can be taken). Add more interpersonal titles in family tree, such as uncle, aunt, cousin, father-in-law, brother-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, etc. Others Make players cannot switch Sims easily after entering a household. Cancel asking players, make us must go to work and school personally with the currently controlled Sim. Cancel the outline around the Sim when the mouse pointer points to a Sim. Make it no longer cause mutual penetration and superposition between Sims. For the ideas of The Sims 5, please refer to here.626Views2likes9CommentsWhat if Wheelchairs and disabilities were added in sims?
I had a thought (as I am sure many other simmers have had this thought) that what if the sims franchise added disabilities, for example... We can choose if we want our sim to be physically disabled, unable to walk (unless they get physical therapy). But work on the mechanics of the sim doing the animations on how they would go to the bathroom or get in bed. If we wanted our disabled sim to eat at the table, they could roll up in a wheelchair to the table where there isn't a dining chair, and they can just eat there or wherever you would want your sim to eat. There can be special build items that disabled sims can use; if they wanted to practice the piano, there can be an item specifically for that sim, OR the gamer could have the option in build mode to move the piano bench into the household inventory, that way the disabled sim can roll right up and 'tickle the ivories'. In build mode, if a gamer wanted their disabled sim to go swimming, or at least enjoy partaking in the pool(s) there can be an item in build mode for that too. Or if they need to go to bed, there is an item that the sim can use to hoist themselves into (and out of) the bed and sleep. And they could use those items to help build their fitness skill. If they live in a house that has a foundation, there should be ramps! it can be an added build item like the stairs and ladders. Now it shouldn't JUST be about the wheelchair, but there can be other disabilities too! for example. a sim could be born disabled. a sim could have gotten into an accident and got injured. (High chance of survival of course) those who are born disabled, (which would depend on a small percentage chance like say...10%) could either be in a wheelchair or born without a limb. you could also create the sim's disabilities; they could also have prosthetics. The sims can also do physical therapy which can also increase the fitness skill! Especially if they are in a wheelchair. There is probably a mod out there that has that. But it would be so much better if it was in-game. I recommend the disabilities be a Game Pack instead of an Expansion. Mostly cause the disabilities wouldn't need a whole different world...or would it? But I think it would be super cool and maybe a little fun if our sims had physical disabilities in the game.76Views2likes6CommentsSo Random, But So Good! A GLITCH TURNED INTO A STORYLINE
So yes! I'm five years behind playing Strangerville. This year alone, is when I really started added the packs. Simply because I had to start playing with my ps4 because my custom computer finally crashed. It did me justice. Moment of silence. Any whoooo, Yesterday, I decided to play with Strangerville. It's getting closer to spooky season lol. Well, I developed a whole story line where the female is the protagonist and lives off into the sunset. Oh, how the tides have turned. You see, I designed the perfect college student. She would go off to Britchester, major in psychology and become a professor. Now over the time of creating her, studying with her, making friends and forming her own little style....I became truly invested in her. My fav so far, and that says a lot. During her college years, she became heavily dedicated to wellness. So much so, she stayed at the spas on her free time. To the point I changed her aspiration to wellness. Then she began to teach classes, maintain her zen, and had the shape for clothes that not ANY of my other sims could pull off. She's a chef's kiss. One night at a party, she meets a guy, likes the guy, and a relationship blossomed. He showed up to her graduation and took her on a vacation as a grad present. After she started establishing herself with her career, she was finally able to have a nice nest egg. She was getting promotions left and right. She didn't have an issue with her man's job, but didn't see how it could coincide with her timeline of living on a tropical island. You see, he was in the military career. And without a college education, she felt he would take longer than she had hoped for. She already knew guys that where in the fortune 500 league by now. So this was a gamble for her, but she did love him. HERE'S THE TWIST! Yes, he was in the military career but he was practically a ghost. Meaning he came in, settled situations, and vanished. He owned homes in three locations and Sulani was one of them. So when he decided to take her again...he wanted to propose. He hated lying to her but it was inevitable. So while on their romantic weekend, he set up a studio at the house so she could teach yoga classes. She was so amazed. And when she wasn't doing that, she showed him just how thankful she was. But after returning home she began to feel sick and couldn't hold anything down. She was pregnant! What was she going to do? She was at the pinnacle of her career and yoga was her baby. After some thought she told her lover the news. He was quiet, almost solemn but came around fast. So much so, he married her before she started to show and threw a baby shower not to long after that. Only thing that was eating him up inside was the fact of the huge mission in Strangerville that he just got assigned to. You see, none of the personnel knew his ghost persona so he would have to ride the ranks just like everyone else. Which didn't bother him...that was light work. What wasn't lightwork was now having two weaknesses if things went South. His wife and child. If they were caught up in this, he wouldn't make it through. Several months later, he and his lovely wife were settled into Strangerville. They purchased a nice fix her upper and she only had to travel to Britchester once a week. What she didn't know...he picked this house for a reason. While she traveled to give lectures, he was busy making a bunker during his down time. It was complete with two bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, small dining room and bathroom. A whole house on the bottom. And room for their future baby to be quite comfy when the time came. But as the pregnancy went on she became more tense, irritated, and mean. He thought that it was the pregnancy and not having time to slow down since college. But she assured him that she was very content on how things were moving, but she didn't act like it. A couple months later a beautiful baby girl was added to the family. And you could tell she was the apple of her father's eye. Of course her mom loved her but she was quite distant. It didn't help that one week before her delivery, he had to tell her about the bunker and orders had came down that Strangerville was about to get shook on it's head. Weirdly, she didn't seem fearful or anxious, almost relieved. That reaction made him feel relieved but a little suspicious. So he had taken wire taps and bugged her conversations a couple of times. Neither findings made no sense. Both talked about money and not to worry where it came from and who it would hurt. These words coming out of his wife's mouth! Now more than ever he was ready to begin and end this mission so he could finally know what was up with his wife. As you can imagine the day of going out into the field was heavy tension. She didn't kiss him, assure him, nor act like it was bothering her. This was not the woman he married. But what did give him strength was spending the day with his sweet little girl. He fed her, gave her a bath, played tummy time, read her a book, and she silently fell asleep on his chest. In the doorway his wife looked on like it was just another day. While he was out getting intel, he noticed people acting weird, not able to talk coherently, moving their limbs in ways they were not to be moved. He broke protocol and dashed home. He burst through the door and noticed little spores glistening and floating through the house. He called out for his wife, his child...no response. Sweating profusely he ran down into the bunker...empty. Leaping three steps at a time, he made it back up to the top of the stairs and heard a faint noise. A noise he knew all to well....a sound of relaxation. He barged open the bathroom door and there lie his wife, soaking in a warm lavender bath. "Where's the baby?!" She looked slowly up at him as if he was out of line. "Why aren't you guys in the bunker?!" She simply said, "What for?" He demanded that she tell him where his baby was. All of a sudden he heard a faint cry. NOW THIS IS WHERE THE SIMS 4 GLITCH COMES IN BUT WORKED SO PERFECTLY TO MY STORYLINE. AS I DIDN'T KNOW THIS WAS A THING. I scanned the cursor on the baby's picture and she was all the way down the street with pink pores surrounding her as she screamed inhumanely. Her needs were all drained and she was sweltering! I put the game in first person mode and had dad run as fast as he could to his daughter. He picked her up and cradled her to his chest. You could hear his harsh breathing all the while passing weird strange people. Smiling wildly, flailing back and forth with no inhibitions about anything. Could they hurt you? Have they touched his child? He rushed down into the bunker; fed her, gave her a bath, soothed and comforted her until she fell asleep in daddy's arms. All the while, Mom is preparing herself something to eat. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS? THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO TELL IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HEAR IT. TRUST ME, IT'S GOOD! MY NAME IS NIKKI AND I LOVE THE SIMS AND I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME TO SHARE MY STORYTELLING🥰31Views4likes0CommentsMaximum population in the save file before sim culling?
Last month, I faced my first "auto-culling" experience in my save file. I noticed some sims in "other household" are missing without a notification pop-up. 10 sims are missing! I went to check in "MCCC_GetPop" but there isn't any number of "Total Culled/Netherworld Sims". Fortunately, I have the backup file and lost only the nighttime progress. However, I started feeling unsafe to play the game until I knew who was missing and what's pattern of how the game chose someone to be culled. I replayed that save a few times then I could collect the information. *I knew there was information about the culling system somewhere a long time ago. But I don't find any recent topic about that, so I have to start a new one. If there are any, please tell me. This is what I found in my case... - Removed sims in my test sessions always 3 Secret Society members, all stray pets (6), and Erwin Pries! (Total 10) Culling progress starts when all active sims sleep, not the day-changing. Culling progress is triggered when the population number ("Total Sims" in MCCC_GetPop) exceeds 670. (The Sims count in-game is around 615. This might not count the hidden sims.) Non-hidden Sims who are removed are in the "Other Household". All of them are "Secret Society (from DU EP)" who are homeless. Other homeless sims are still saved but I'm not sure if they will be next. I guessed that the game chooses to remove unimportant sims first. Hidden Sims who are removed are... Stray pets... all of them (6 sims) Erwin Pries (He's a hidden sim but seems not necessary to have?) I tried to find ways to avoid culling without using mods but finally gave up. I'm glad that MCCC can prevent sim culling, but I don't sure about how many sims I can have in one save file without breaking the game. I want to start a topic about "sharing your population data in your save file" as well. But I'm more curious about unwarned "sim-culling" right now. --- Side note - I play the game without "Get Famous EP", so my population number grows faster because the game has to generate new NPC despite using the existing one.138Views2likes6CommentsAny small Sims youtubers here?
I recently started a YouTube channel and I wanna connect with more people! Feel free do drop your username and I will Subscribe :3 maybe one day we could do a collab or something~ Something about me: Hello! I'm KnoxTheF0x (or just Knox) and I'm 24 years old from Croatia. I've been playing Sims since I was six years old. I love the game so much and it's been a big part of my life. I would also love to hear some tips and stories how you started your YouTube channel. It would help me a lot! Have a lovely day/night! 💗 https://www.youtube.com/@KnoxTheF0x3Lovestruck without cupid's corner?
I have seen several videos and articles about lovestruck but would like to hear your opinions. Most of my sims find their true love through the hand of the Watcher (me 😉) I would give cupid's corner a go for a single sim and then probably don't touch it afterwards. My sims will have a date occasionally but that's about it. Is there enough other gameplay in the EP to make it interesting? Is there enough outside of cupid's corner to call it a useful addition to the game?102Views0likes4CommentsWhen is the next update
This new expansion pack has ruined my whole game, it's been more than a month and I haven't been able to play! at first with my mods I simply couldn't get to CAS it kept loading and loading. Then took off mods uninstalled and reinstalled and stared a brand new game and now it's stuck on white screen. All I see is everyone having the same problems!! I've paid more than $1000 just on this game and maybe that's my fault because this game is constantly breaking. You would expect for customer who spends so much money that their game would run smoothly but that's not the case.. PLEASE UPDATE AND FIX THE GAME205Views2likes5CommentsNostalgia pack
I have idea, i hope maybe you would like it. New patch can have a name: "Nostalgia" Do you know, that people have memories about past . It's can be smell, games, places, food and etc. It's can be good and also bad moods. I remember my grandmother when i feel smell of pion rose and home pie. My second grandmother teached me how to play to chess. I think everyone have it. Do you remember moment from cartoon "Ratatouille", when he is tired food and backed to past when his mother cocked him this food. I sit and thought about that. If you are interesting i can give more for examples. Another moment: T-shirt apparat: people can make individual T-shirts, same like you paint some Painting with your photo. It was just some ideas, i would like to share more. Thanks and have a nice day! Sorry, if I can't good explain, because i speak in another language. [ Edit note: Posting an email address is not allowed and it has been removed. Ask readers to post replies for more info ], ask me if you want more information. For that i would like to have only one bush in this game it's lilac. Ivan39Views3likes0Comments
