You can tell that James has had his love for the sims 4 sparked again in a big way since the release of dream home decorator and it’s so lovely to see!! I love watching someone who’s passionate about something have a good time with it. 😄
I agree. I thanked the Lord that EA/The Sims, finally came out with something that made James excited again. I enjoy watching James very much, his voice is very calming for me, I missed that. I do miss the "Hey Guys" over the "Welcome Back" but I'll live. 😂
i appreciate that james comes back to his old builds and hypes himself up. its a lot more pleasant to watch than people who heavily criticize their older work, and he should be proud! this build was good
@@JamesTurnerYT Really? I've never ran into that problem, when I build they're in the catalogue like everything else....i know all the cas stuff is locked, but I can access all the build buy stuff.... so that's...nifty hahaha.
I think having Batuu stuff in this house makes sense, 'cause these people would be all about showing off how they are preserving an ancient culture they really know nothing about.
Honestly, I kept waiting for you to cave and just start sprucing up the whole house! Lol I would love to see a series where you go back to old builds and renovate them... Especially the big wallet houses. That would show how much has changed over time both in the game and in your style!
Right! Hopefully someone will move in and he can renovate the house more. I think the reason he went and made that a room was for practicality (if they asked for a living room renovation, it might've glitched out since it isn't a room... or perhaps the game would just assume they don't have one.) I'm hoping he goes back to fix the one in Sulani and the University house (if only so he can actually do renovations there.)
@@LizzieNya If I had to guess, it's probably not in the same save file; however he likely could plop it into the Bigwallet save, because yes that is a spectacular build!
You should continue to renovate your other old builds too, like Lady Bigwallet’s Emporium or Max Power’s old penthouse. The throwback would be so cool.
I've been wanting re-dos/fixes of older builds for ages. TH-cam will recommend older videos and you'll make comments about items or tools you wished we had, and now we have them! As soon as you started redoing this lot, i immediately thought of the mountain house too. The lake house too would be fun once you have the lake tool with cottage living. As much fun as your let's plays are, I do miss just the Build videos from back in the day.
I feel that "bougie" is James' word of the week, since all his makeovers lately must have it, to the extent we could make it a drinking game every time he says it.
James, I'm moving this weekend, and I watched 5 of the latest LP episodes in a row, and it made the time fly by while I was packing! All these uploades are giving me life!
I've been enjoying the Dream Home Decorator "let's play" but I also like seeing the renovation you did for this (since then you don't have the restrictions of the Decorator job.) It's fun seeing you make the changes. I'd like to see you do the movie room at this house, but the others you mentioned sound fun too.
I LOVE the idea of waiting to do the Alpine mountain home for when cottage living is out!! I love the idea of being able to see what you do with the terrain tools and the new pond tool! I think that's an awesome video idea!
I'd LOVE to see a video revisiting the alpine mountain home, I've been hoping you'd do that since terrain tools came out but also yes wait until the pond tool is out. Also revisiting other homes in similar fashion, comepletely here for that
Edit: I LOVE the idea of going back and refining old builds with new techniques/tools!! Much more interesting to me than a regular build. If you want to use half-walls and their textures to line sunken areas, the deepest areas actually need to be at the "normal" foundation height, and everything else needs to be platforms raised above it. So most of your house will be raised higher than foundation level. Then outside, if you want it to look like the house isn’t raised off the ground, you bring up the terrain itself to be higher with terrain builder. The workaround era hasn't left, it's just changed:)
Speaking of your old builds... I'm still in love with your 70s house from ts3 that you showed some time ago and wish to see it recreated on ts4 someday. Love your content and how you hype your past creations, that's refreshing!
I would LOVE a series where you go back and redo old builds! Def wait until the new pack to do the Alpine build so you can make an actual pond. I AM SO EXCITED THE IT!
man i'd love to see your christmas cabin done up in the modern sims stuff. it was waaaaaaaaaay back, like back when we first got the holiday update sometime around outdoor retreat and get to work. between current stuff we have like seasons and stuff on the way like country living you could literally outdo yourself
Oh wow, I remember watching that build video and loving all the creative stuff you did to work around the game's limitations. Really cool to see how much has changed!
I loved this! So fun to watch, both to see how it can be done now and how it was done before. I love the stairs! So unique and looks so cool. I'd love to see more fixing old builds!
Really loving revisiting old lots! The factory/museum/shop wtf did it end up as build in Oasis Springs (?) You could do so much with! The Bigwallet restaurant! Lady's mansion! So excited!!!
I think about this all the time and I would love to see you revisit some of your favorite old builds to use new tools. I think it could be really interesting to see what sort of adaptation you had to come up with before you could actually do what you wanted.
I love how frequently you’re posting lately! Much thanks. Your DHD let’s play has been inspiring me to get more immersive in my own saves. Thanks for being awesome, James!!
I had no idea you could do this! For the longest time I've wanted to build my childhood home - a split level raised ranch with the entryway halfway between the upper floor and basement. Before I could only do it by making it technically a three level home instead of a two level home. I tried the platform tools but it never seemed to work right, but I guess I wasn't doing it properly? I didn't realize you had to define the "rooms" before messing with the platforms, so I was trying to build the platforms to get the floors laid out first, then put walls and stairs in after the face. I think I can now get it pretty close! Now if only they'd let us have basements with partially exposed walls for windows it'd be perfect...
I see we entered a new phase in James’ build style. From black and white very monochromatic to extravagant bougie to the point you question if he’s serious about it 😅
If you want to fix a build you could go back and fix Column and Plantain's home... Or at least give them some indoor campbeds around a cauldrun (and give Ticket a food bowl and a chew toy) and the fill the house with cracks and cobwebs and dead vegetation from the Vampires pack, so it looks like some magic went horribly wrong and the interior of the house got destroyed and they've just been camping out in their destroyed home ever since...
i love these videos every day, i always look forward to watching them when im done with work!! thanks for all your effort James. alsoooo, i hope the witches house can be renovated soon, it hurts my heart to know there is a baby and a dog in a house with nothing in it lmaoo
I love that there’s a video everyday!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️ Also I was watching your old builds the other day and I was like “I wonder if he’ll go back and do these if we suggest them” and then you play this video today! Yes please re-do old builds!
I'm genuinely having so much fun lately watching these videos. Thank you for making them James! The "Ah! Batuu!" moments make me laugh every single time.
I loved this renovation to upgrade to modern packs - this gives me a lot of ideas on what to do with my old builds - thanks again for an awesome vid, and yes, I highly recommend you do a lot more of these renovation vids because One, they are entertaining, and Two, we are all learning from you - it is a win win combo - thanks for sharing
Yeah man do more fixing like this! I've been rewatching your old house build videos and think to myself "James should fix this since we have the features to make it function better now" but your DIYs on all of them are pretty creative anyways so I ain't complaining.
James this is so weird for me because almost exactly a year a ago I was sick with covid and rewatching your old streams. This was one of the ones I really enjoyed and now, a year almost to the day you are renovating it!
you seriously did some really cool stuff in this build it's so incredible. you should be so happy about this build esp considering so much of this wasn't made yet in the game and you made it work like this. that's so sick dude
I am feeling all this all this content from James. To see him into sims again makes me into it again. I've not played any games since last fall now I'm excited for cottage living can't wait to create my new. Legacy decades challenge founder. Thanks James.
Once we have the pond tool I'd love to see you go back and do like the houseboat or homes floating over the pond style you've had to do with pools and disguising the edge in the past
We have more hanging plants, they are just in debug. I can't recommend enough the Better build buy mod TwistedMexi created - these items actually show up in right categories, not hidden in debug.

I do miss the "Hey Guys" over the "Welcome Back" but I'll live. 😂
His excitement has sparked my love again. I've not played sims since October of last year now I am excited to play again.
James being so impressed by the ingenuity of past-James is so funny.
I came here to say exactly this.
Its a gemini thing!
Im one too and do that alot 😅😅😁
Don't mind me, I'm just waiting for the "aww batuu!" moment to get my free serotonin :)
19:40 :')

I LIVE for that moment. Makes me smile every time.
He’s always so excited. And it makes me giggle. I love waiting for it.
Can someone please do a compilation of "aww batuu yeah"?? Makes me smile everytime :)
This much content feels like being spoiled. But I’m not complaining. It’s a lot to finally get to watch on my days off. 😌

But aren't the nifty knitting ones locked unless you cheat?
@@limiv5272 yes but it still means there’s more than one hanging plant

James, you should fix that house foundations from Sulani! Don't forget that one! :)

I would love to see him renovating the Max Towers house back in Windenburg. That mansion was a dream 😍
@@LizzieNya If I had to guess, it's probably not in the same save file; however he likely could plop it into the Bigwallet save, because yes that is a spectacular build!
This is a vote for redoing alpine mountain after cottage living.
Omg yes
24:03 - Or “Ap” line mountain as it’s actually called in the listing lol!
i love the idea of actually going back and “fixing” old builds with the things we have now!!
Right? The stairs+doors and windows updates certainly help as well as Platforms and terrain editing ontop of that is just a MAJOR blessing these days
You should continue to renovate your other old builds too, like Lady Bigwallet’s Emporium or Max Power’s old penthouse. The throwback would be so cool.
The entrance platform step down design is cool. James creativity always amazes me.
Yeah. It would look weird in a reg house, but fits the mansion well
My partner doesn't even know who James is, but from being in the room while I watch these videos he knows what "aw, Batuu!" means haahahaha
That landing halfwall would have made the perfect place for some yarn
Awww yeah. And then the chair nearby would more sense... that's their favorite knitting spot! :D
But would we be allowed to look at it? 😂
The more James cut into those stairs at the front, the more I said “stop it. Leave them alone!” 😂
"Oh there's a baby! Deletein'!" is killing me.
i paused the video after that one it took me out
You can size down that big dog bed and its still functional just doesn't use so much space 💙🐶
and it won't weirdly clip? Big dog beds are enormous...
As an OG fan, I am LOVING your content lately. You have so much talent and you’ve been really putting it to use since DHD came out. Proud of you!

I like the platformstairs at the entrance ...
It's just that you gotta give granny a hand when she visits. You don't want accidents to happen.
This house would have a song dedicated to it probably called “the last great sim-erican dynasty” because it was owned by the iconic Lady Bigwallet II.
isnt that Taylor Swift 👀

I feel that "bougie" is James' word of the week, since all his makeovers lately must have it, to the extent we could make it a drinking game every time he says it.
he really said it a lot in the recent videos 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He's past his Batuu phase. Now it's all bougie 😆
i’ve been watching so much of james lately, all i say now is aw yEAh 🥲
I think you mean aw yeah Batuu! XD
Ngl I am loving those funky steps
“Built this a number of years ago” oh shoot, I remember that like it’s yesterday!
I had to google when Get Famous came out because I swore it was a little over a year ago. Nope! Back in 2018!
So why were so many items duplicated, do you remember?
Indeed. I felt like time flew by.
I'd love to see a whole series of changing old builds to include new methods!
You really went for it with this build back in the day. This whole generation of the Bigwallet Saga was a wild ride.
Look at James being the supportive friend and wearing Zeuz' merch.
James, I'm moving this weekend, and I watched 5 of the latest LP episodes in a row, and it made the time fly by while I was packing! All these uploades are giving me life!
I'm going to need some merch that says "ah Batuu, yeeeah!"

Im so glad James is back into his groove, its great seeing you less stressed and uploading more
Seeing the home without Lady Bigwallet is so weird. It is like she still here, but I know she was Thanos snapped by James.

I remember the old days of split leveling living rooms and having weird lighting
I love the fact you're going back and fixing these old beauties!!! It's the best thing ever
For a second I thought this was Dream Home Decorator episode hehe
Me too lol
I was thinking the same thing. I saw $400,000 and I was thinking dang what a budget.
I tried renovating one of my builds with these platforms and it was so hard! I admire your patience, james.
There was a lakehouse you did before. I would love to see that redone with the new pond tool once the cottage living update comes out!

Take a shot everytime James says “AAHHH BATUU” 🤣🤣🤣
I laugh every time James says "Ahh, Batu!!" and I don't know why
When you finish one James Turner formerly known as The Sim Supply video, to then have another waiting. Cheering!
I really enjoyed this one!!!! YES!!! I would love for you to go back and finish and do the movie room as well! I'm learning so much!
I agree -- I'm here for any rebuilds of older builds. Especially any that would now use terrain and platforms.
James saying "Aww Batuu!" Every time he comes across those items is honestly making me almost want the pack! Love it!! 🤪
Once we have the pond tool I'd love to see you go back and do like the houseboat or homes floating over the pond style you've had to do with pools and disguising the edge in the past

I would loooove to see you “fixing” old builds with the platforms and what not! Gimme all of them 😂
That little gold decoration by the front door reminds me of an everlasting gobstopper!
I am LOVING your consistent uploads and your excitement throughout each video!!!!!!!
This build has always been one of my favorites, of yours. Nice to revisit!
Would love to see a revisiting to the Alpine Mountain house with Cottage Living!
you could revisit the tree houses with insane stairs
As someone who sprains their ankles often walking down stairs, this house would be a disaster for me lol. Lovely build though :)
Yes please do renovations of old builds! I have some old builds I want to revisit and you have some great ideas that I could steal! :)
once you edit the old builds, offer a save file? I would love a James Turner town.
