Sims 4 Tutorial - Functional Attic & Roof Windows | Kate Emerald
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 มิ.ย. 2019
- In this The Sims 4 tutorial I teach you how to build a functional attic that your Sims can use including roof windows and a roof balcony. Weather does not affect the Sims inside the attic so it's fully functional. In this video I explain step by step how you can not only build the attic but also how you can add skylights/roof windows and the roof balcony.
By default attics do not exist in The Sims 4 but with this little trick you can make your houses more realistic and let your Sims move into the attic. The roof balcony is a special eyecatcher that make your builds more unique.

honestly I think the most mindblowing part about this is that shift trick! How did I not know about that before!
Glad that was helpful for you! :)
OMG THANKS
Same
That shift-tip changes everything I knew about roofs!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN MY WHOLE SIMS LIFE????!!! THIS IS AMAZING!
Aww, thank you! :)
Haha my thought exactly! Why am i seeing this now instead of 8 months earlier 😂😭

I know im randomly asking but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Parker Griffin instablaster =)
You are really the best sims builder on youtube. Still amazed how can you found tricks like these. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much! :)
Yeah she's pretty awesome!
Im sooo mad I never knew about the shift only doing one side of the roof. Thank you!
"I built a little something here"
Me: i will never be able to build that "little something" or otherwise!
I am sure you are amazingly talented!
Hey, my first house was a box-ey nightmare, but it gets easier! I love to casually watch videos like this whenever or while I play and you pick up all sorts of tricks. And if you're a hands on learner - I sometimes watch tutorials for a build technique and then go to the property in the gallery and place it so I can take that piece apart and mess with it in the correct context
For ps4 players, hold square when bringing the roof back for the window, keep you finger on square when you press x to set it, works like the shift key.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TIP. I play on both systems!
WildGypsy Rose you’re welcome:)
WildGypsy Rose what do you do Xbox?!!
Oh God, thank you man
makayla simms you press a than hold x than drag
This is super informative and helpful, thank you so much for showing us all how to do this because I have been wondering for the LONGEST time how to make attic rooms!
Thank you so much!
I legit didn’t even know making an attic room was possible
Sis how do you even come up with these?! This is dopeee!!!
Thank you! :D
You legitimately are one of the best builder Ive ever seen you need to get in contact with ea seriously
Can you put the intro house on the gallery, it looks gorgeous (not that I'm lazy or anything heh)
mindblown... I didn't even know about the SHIFT thing and I've been playing sims for 14 years...
You're so creative!!!! I've been trying to build a bedroom with a skylight and have always failed, but now, i have hope!! Thank you so much for this tutorial ❤️
Thank you so much! So glad to hear that this is helpful for you. Have fun trying it! :)
Abbey E
I was LITERALLY about to comment this- She is soooOoooOoOoOoooooOoo creative!
I truly hope your content excels like it should, so many of these tricks are things I would never think of!
Edit: I did not even know you could change a single roof side! Mind blown 🤯.
Thank you sooo much, how kind of you! :)
ARMYYYYY
Thank you so much for this! I've been struggling trying to make sky lights forever
I really like how you explain this stuff. You don’t just rush over it, you accurately describe what to do, the repetition also helps. Keep it up. Perfect tutorial
I love finding innovative builders to see what we can truly accomplish in this neat game! Thank you!
Cool! One of your video’s showed up in my feed and now I can’t stop watching. I will start playing the Sims again!
Thank you so much, this makes me so happy! Happy simming! :)
You're a genius! I have been looking on tutorial to make this. this video is by far the most informative tutorial I found.
Thank you so much! :)
Honestly your tutorials are actually quickly converting me to getting sims 4. These builds and ideas are absolutely amazing. I like the open world of sims 3 but this looks so much more fun to build in.
This is honestly the BEST explanation of attics I have EVER seen! So easy to understand. Thank you for this! I can’t wait to try it out!!!!
I tried this method and I honestly can't be any happier with the look of my house. It's modern yet rustic at the same time. Really appreciate this tutorial, Kate
Thank you so much, glad to hear that! :))
Most beautiful video I’ve ever watched on TH-cam! Totally worth to see and opens your dimensions of creativity!
Thank you sooo much! :)
This is absolutely mindblowing! I am like a worm when it comes to builds...Hoping this steps up my builds a few notches!
Really clear and to the point. I always skip in videos because of too much talk. You were perfect.
Also, knowing about the shift trick would have spared me so much frustration in the past! Thank you for the tip!
i have learned so much from your videos! great tutorial as always!!
Thank you so much this means a lot to me! :)
I'm playing since 2014, but i didn't know about the "roof shift trick". Thank you! :D
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!! This is INCREDIBLE!! I have LONGED for a way to do a roof like this that didn't involve special codes or mods or packs. I am SO amazed! You have earned my sub JUST because of this video.
She is so creative who would ever think of these ideas so amazing can’t wait to create this!❤️Thank you x
Thank you for that! I have been wondering how to make usable spaces and you just taught me!
I literally never knew about the SHIFT trick with roofs! My mind was blown when you did that XD Thank you!!
Yay, thank you! :)
Only just stumbled on this!! This is absolutely the best tutorial on making fully functional attics with skylight windows... thank you!!
FINALLY!!!! I FOUND SOMEONE WHO EXPLAINS IT FROM START TO FINISH!!! Currently building a replica of my own house and I have several room that have slanted ceilings so it doesn't totally work for it but for now I am SUPER happy!!!
Such a great tutorial! I can’t wait to add an attic to some of my homes! Thanks so much! 😆
I never ever wanted to build my own house. After watching this, you have inspired me. I agree with others, you are simply outstanding to learn from. Thank you!
It took me three years to learn how to build in sims now I cant stop lol
Spent the last couple of hours watching your tutorials, never realised you had so many! Loads of ideas to be used! :)
I think it's genuinely hard to make good tutorial videos, or at least I find it hard to find good tutorial videos haha, but this was SUCH a helpful video. The info was laid out so so so well and really helped me follow along at a perfect pace without having to pause/replay or having to sit through any rambling that made it difficult to focus, and I have difficulty parsing info like this sometimes. Such clever building too, the amount of times I actually gasped lol. Love the balcony option too. Thank you so much!!!
thank you for actually teaching us how to do it, I watch builds a lot but very few people explain how they do/did things
Thank you so much! :)
This is an amazing tutorial. I had a lot of 'aha!' moments and I'm excited to use this in my game!
Thank you, so glad to hear that! :)
OMG. Srsly O. M. G. Honestly you are the BEST builder out there Kate YOU SHOULD BE GETTING PAID FOR THIS!!!!! Thank you SOOO much!!!! I spent 3 days trying to put a roof over a pool for heavens sake, let alone trying to make an attic. You are a legitimate GENIUS!!! 👏👏👏👏🙇♀️👑👑
I recognise your accent and been watching a lot of Sim building tutorial but yours is by far the best, the most technical, the most helpful, the most creative and the most beautiful. Keep it up! ❤️
Thank you sooo much! :))
I cannot even begin to understand how you think of these innovations!!!!!!!
Thank you for the tutorial. I have been wondering how to do this for a while now and I never started using online tutorials until just recently. I love this. Thanks.
This is the best tutorial I have seen in 2019 for TS4 Build.
Omg now I can fix and use the attic of my grey not so berry house! Thank you so much I was struggling so much to figure this out! Your truly amazing❣️
Thank you so much! :)
I just got sims for free and I was really trash at building houses but with your help I'm going to be much better!
Thank you! 🤗
Thank you so much!
This is incredible, just when you think you can't get anymore from sims then you get this, amazing!
the first 2 minutes of film already helped me so much ty!!!
Kate: *Makes tutorial on making a proper attic*
Viewers: OMG I NEVER KNEW ABOUT THE SHIFT THING!
Amazing! You inspired me to go build much more! I never thought of this!❤️
Thank you so much this means a lot to me! :)
i love how simply you explain everything! you make these tricks and tips super understandable, so thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻
Aww, thank you! :)
This is fantastic! You explained and demonstrated this so well. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
I'm loving it! I will use it so much.
Danke! Greetings from Spain
i didn't know this was possible omg... thank You
Amazing! I've only done skylights one way so it's great to see new methods. Thanks for sharing your creations!❤
You are so so helpful sharing these sneaky tricks with us, much loves
Uhhh THANK YOU?! This is amazing.
That's a clever way to solve the gap with tall walls! I heard the upcoming patch extends how far you can drag eaves, and I wonder what new things with roofs we will be able to do!
Thank you so much! :) I am very excited for that update, this will definitely make this easier and will give us more opportunities for roofing! :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I had no idea SHIFT pulled only one side of the eaves, and I have been building for forever. It always bothered me that both sides moved.. I am so embarrassed that I did not know this. Where have you been all my Sims 4 life? Haha! This is by far the best tutorial. You explain so well and easy to understand. I appreciate it. Can't wait to try some roof windows which has always been a fail for me TILL NOW! Whoop Whoop!! See ya on the Gallery!
Honestly I stumbled onto your channel and I’ve instantly fallen in love, you’re so helpful in the way you describe things and you’re really good, it’s amazing 🕺🏼 thank you
Thank you sooo much! :)
Nobody explained it that good! Thank you
Thank you so much! :)
You guys can also hold down ALT to customize the roof height and curve. So your roof will always line up, no matter what size each piece of roof is. Just in case no one knew about that, and the shift button.
If you don't want the little wall under your roof windows or just prefer to have it see through on both sides, make the glass roof wall's a 1x1 square. And use the SHIFT button to slide the roof edges. Not the wall. If you want a good example of this check out Kate's other video for angled window facades!
You are a genius!! I didn't know the trick about Shift + changing one side! I love it! Thank you so much for making this tutorial!
Glad it was helpful for you! :)
Probably my favorite Sims 4 tutorial, so useful! I will have a lot of fun with these tips. Thanks Kate!
Thank you so much! :))
You are GENIUS!!! Instant subscriber here! I always make my roof as simple as possible cause its so complicated to use these tools. Thank you for sharing with us! P.s. but at least im good at decorating 🤣😂😄😘💋💓
Thank you so much, this means a lot to me! :)
Also I live in the attic IRL so my Simself can live and appreciate all the beauty of being two stories above everyone and everything else.
I loved my attic room. It's very normal in my country!
This is great!! I take years long breaks from the game so tend to feel like I'm starting from square 1 with building when I come back, not that I ever knew all of these tricks to begin with! Can't wait to build a house on a hill with an attic this evening!! 😃👍👍
this is so helpful!! i've been trying to make an attic but it never works but now i can have a functional room in the attic, thank you so much! you are an amazing builder and i am always amazed by you
Thank you so much, glad it was helpful! :))
I loveee your speaking you speak so slow and clear and I just looove it, and nearly I can understand everything😍😍
I learn English in school and it's very cool that you don't speak as fast as other youtubers,because so ppl like me can understand it better 💓 Btw I speak German (:
New subscriber 🙋🏽♀️
Aww, thank you so much! That's so great to hear! Pssst, I am German too! :) Hoffe du hast ein super Wochenende!
@@KateEmerald Aww omg wusste garnicht das du Deutsch spricht haha ups aber ich liebe deine Stimme und wie du es so langsam erklärst, weil bei vielen muss ich es öfter abspielen um überhaupt hinterher zu kommen haha 😂❤

Girl, where have u been my whole entire life!!!I usually hate doing roofs and I struggle a lot. But now, I have found u
You are so innovative and creative with your builds. You’re very original. I LOVE your house so much.

SUBCRIBED! You have helped me in such a great way. I suck at roofs but this was so easy to understand that I feel inspired and now am going to build some awesome roofs. Thank you. God bless you. Adios.

That's super cool! I wish there were a way to have these work with dormers, then I could recreate my house more accurately, but this still gives a ton of new possibilities for builds. Thanks for the tutorial!

Thank you
Your tutorials are seriously the best! I'm so excited to try out all the things I've learned from you
Aww, thank you!! :)
Welp its time to fix my attic lol
Wow! Since everyone is already talking about the attic windows already, can I ask a question about the house you built at the beginning of the video, the one showcasing the attic windows? Is it on the gallery, or do you have tray files for it, because it’s so pretty!
I never uploaded it I just quickly built it for the tutorial! :)
Kate Emerald : Would you be willing to upload it? Nevertheless, thanks so much for answering
I've been subscribed to this channel ever since that multi-level tutorial! Thanks for teaching innovative and new tricks every time!
Thank you so much for sticking around for so long, this means a lot to me! :)
This. Is. BRILLIAAAANT!!! Thank you Kate Emerald for sharing your Sims 4 wisdom!
Thank you so much! :)
Is this build on the gallery? I would love to use it in my game:D
I also want that house!!!
Same!
SAME!!
Loved this! However I’ve found that although the weather does not enter it is still being classed as outside and causing issues with the lights. Do have a solution to this?
I’m having the same problem right now 😩 The roof window is causing it and I don’t know why :/
@@Myliio I came here to say the same thing. Same issue with the lights. It's always dark in there :(
DIAvs89 Weirdly enough it ended up working and I had light in the attic, but when I finally moved a sim in there, the first floor lights weren’t turning on at all... I really have no idea how to fix this, it’s such a shame :(
Seriously, you're one of my favorites! I've learned so much thanks to you. I have always struggled with landscaping but I keep getting more confident with it every time I watch one of your videos and get new ideas. ^_^ I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you so much, this means a lot to me! Hope you have a great weekend as well! :)
Omg you saved my life! I am recreating my own home in the sims, and roof windows were a necessity! Thanks
Very helpful tutorial, but when you say hold down shift, what would be the equivalent for console?
Please someone answer this! ❤
For Xbox, you hold down x and then click the a button. I'd imagine the button placement would be similar for PS4. I think the square button?
@@lisablair200 I had been trying that, and it looks like it will only drag one side, but it drags both :(
Maybe there's something wrong with my game, but thank you!
Lisa Blair Thank you so much. I’ll try it soon & let you know.
@@lisablair200 update: I tried it again, and it worked! Sometimes the game is glitchy for me, so that's probably why it didn't work before. Thank you!! 💕
6:31 Anyone know how to do this on console?
Edit. I know, now! You must press 'X' and 'A' on Xbox. ('X' first!!!)
Anyone know how to do this on ps4??
@@NatashaIsOhSoCool Press square and hold then x. Hope it helps :)
THANK YOU so much!!! on sims website it says shift click is b and a but it wasn’t working. i was getting so frustrated lol thank you for showing that it’s x instead of b
You are amazing! It's all described so good and easy to understand, and your ideas and tricks are mind-blowing! Helping me stay sane and calm with Sims during quarentine! Thank you 💕
I love your videos! and I love the way you explain things. I actually feel like I can do these things so I’m going to try them, thank you!
I can't remove my roof walls and this is driving me insane D:
How did you do it? I have the same problem!
That's the frustrating part about it. You *cannot* remove the roof walls (as far as I'm aware) so you have to just deal with having the room end there. The other bad part about this is that whatever you decide the roof wall color to be that'll be what the wall color of your room has to be due to the way roofs function.
Best sims 4 tutorial on attics, thx!!!
The best builder I have found on TH-cam so far thanks for sharing xo
Thank you so much! :)
Where were you in my life?? I wanted tl make an attic room for ages and couldn't understand how 😅 Thank you so much!
Very nice!!! You're freaking awesome. I started this thinking.. well yeah that's like making an A-Frame. But no! You really did it!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! ❤ Added it to my favorite videos immediately!
This is awesome! I just built a house that I’m quite proud of, and I’m gonna put a skylight above my study on the top floor!
