I love how excited the Sims community is to welcome new players. There's a lot to learn about this game, but there's also so many people like LilSimsie who make helpful resources like this! There is one more shortcut that I think is worth mentioning. Ctrl+F can be used to cut floor tiles in half diagonally. It's great to use to make custom floors or to create a clean edge where the floorboards meet in the corner of a wrap around porch. Also, the fish, frogs, and insects from the debug can be placed in the world and they will be inside little aquariums. The fish can be mounted to hang on the wall. There are also feathers in the Cats & Dogs expansion that can be hung on the wall and they turn into little framed pictures of of the birds. (I don't know if the bugs and birds are available in base game. Bugs would probably be in Outdoor Retreat?)

I always like these videos because while I do know most of the tips by now, there's always at least _one_ thing I didn't know. This time it was the alt placement for roof heights. I had no idea that was a thing. I usually got annoyed when I would try to line up the roof with the wall and it just wouldn't work. I would end up rebuilding or reshaping the house lmao. Now I have a solution! 😁

I know you don't usually use or mention mods, but I feel like pointing out that Twisted Mexi's mod "Better Build Buy" organizes and names most the debug and live edit options, so instead of searching debug, you can search "trees" and it will give you all the debug trees. It just makes your debug tips a lot easier cuz they're more organized

With the wall tool you can hold shift and while it's held it lets you drag out a square. This can be used in combination with ctrl to delete a square of walls.

thank you for these tips even as someone whos played off and on since sims 2 I learned quite a few things like I never realized I could delete under the stairs. You say that could be a money saving thing but I could see for me that being an organization thing as well since then I could put things under the stairs.

Roofs clipping when making a stair landing can also be solved by making the fence go through the stair opening. Like at the top of the stairs, don't break up the fence, but continue it. The game will make it invisible and sims can use the stairs, but the game will also recognize the space as a room and not clip the roof.
@Zandalorscat Рік тому
Good tip! I thought the fence going through the stair opening had stopped working? I remember sometime around the release of Snowy Escape all of a sudden the stairs of most of my downloaded builds became unusable and I eventually figured out that I needed to delete that fence part. Maybe it's been fixed since then, I'll be sure to try it out later. 😃

i've been playing the sims 4 since it came out and, although i knew almost all these tips (i knew the camera positions thing existed, i just never bothered to figure out what keys it was), i am so keen to share this video with my friends and family. as soon as i heard the news that the base game would be free i told them all about it and i think this video would be super helpful to them. thanks kayak !

i was an architecture major and i was so used to making models and rendering with shortcuts and commands that i use in those softwares.. i'm not even kidding, the amount of time i wasted trying to figure out how to build in the sims even when i've played it in the past is embarrassing😂

I played the Sims as a kid (Sims 1 and 2) and just recently got Sims 4. The building has really changed since then and didn't understand it at all. This video was very helpful. Thank you :)

Thank you! Now I know how to place things on anything without floating/in the wall. Now I can clutter up. I am New creator🫶🏻 crystal pack getting for my birthday next week, my creations will have everything/will do base game stuff eventually. I don’t have twitch but watching your streams while playing is a huge vibe 💛

I love this! I could always use more build tips. I'm fine at decorating interiors but I feel like all my builds always end up just boring boxes from the outside 😂
@MiamoryHJ Рік тому
Ohhh thank you for the tips! I didn’t know about sims 3 camera xD definitely going to try it! I wonder how people do triangular floor tiles and making pattern out of those. Is that also f5?
@Tashtickle17 Рік тому
Thankyou for this video , as somebody who has played the sims since the first game release I’ve always had troubles with building and always do basic builds and focus on the gameplay. But now with these tips I’ll be able to fully customise my houses ☺️ thanks take care

Imagine how much agony/screaming into the void I could have saved myself from if I had known about holding shift to change only one side of a roof. I thought I knew all the things. Thank you, you have given me back years on my life.

That's definitely a nicer take on it than to think of all the years lost, haha

Me when I started playing: I dont need a tutorial this is going to be easy Me now: HELP HOW DO I DELETE A WALL

I've picked up most of these from watching your videos but the custom cabinetry just blew my mind!! I can't believe I've never seen that before
@kristaylor5115 Місяць тому
This is so incredibly helpful! I'm not a builder by any means, it's not my favorite part of gameplay but I do like to redecorate a little when I move a family in and I absolutely love clutter. I actually just made a live in cafe and the paintings weren't looking how I wanted so knowing how to scale and move them more easily will definitely make an improvement :D
