I love apartments in the sims, like it feels realistic to me, but one thing that I hate is that the sims never added the apartment lot type to the basegame, or to city living, so if they ever do a refresh, that would be a great place to start.
but the whole point of city living is apartments. it's as if you were asking for pets to be put into the base game, absolutely reasonable yet not how the sims works
What a remarkable point
@@cosmic7336 I see your point, but it feels like now that the pack has been out for so long, the more noticeable it is, like cause you would think a pack that’s supposed to be about living in the city you would think that they would add the lot type so you can make your own, not to mention that with My Wedding Stories, they added the wedding venue lot type, but weddings were already in the game, so I guess it’s not that valid.
@@yuhhbiscuit you're very right, but again, that's sadly not how the game works :(
I feel like they should have done this, too. I am kinda sad that we can’t make apartments.
I’m glad that you didn’t limit yourself with the packs this time. It’s nice to see you make builds to your full potential. As always, very talented 🤩
I agree!
fun fact!!
You can actually remove the "little quirks" the apartments have by not paying your rent so the sent someone over to swush all your furniture away. BUT if the lot is completely empty they will go for these qirks and you'll get rid of them permanently. Happened to me by accident but I think it's pretty useful when you like the apartment but not the things that come with it
do you mean only the plaques? or do the pipelines and mouse holes from fixer upper ones get taken away too?
@@daisydarlin I have actually ONLY tried it with mouse holes and pipes so those definitely do. Not 100% sure on all the others tho, but give it a shot :)
that's amazing
Yes it works with plaques
yep!! so useful for getting rid of the crime scene stuff
The fact she’s afraid of fire and LOVES her fire toilet makes me giggle a bit
righttt fire toilet is a must
I thought the same 🤣
And never buy fire alarms because if there's a fire there's a fire 😂
The apartments are my FAVORITE place to start sims! Cheap, I like buying them empty and furnishing as my sim earns. They're much less overwhelming to decorate and such without worrying about the exterior.
Same
I want to tell lilsimsie I’m proud of her for overcoming her fear of red, you go bestie!!
I know right
I feel like a proud parent
Please never feel constrained about packs. It's cool to see your vision... and if we like the layout we can always substitute missing items... or perhaps it will inspire us to pick up a new pack.
When I discovered that get famous rug I immediately loved it because I’ve always over looked it because of the default swatch, but it’s actually amazing! It’s kind of the best rug in the game because of its design- not only the patterns but the style of rug changes and you piece it together. They should make more rugs like that.
“It does work it’s just annoying” is the overarching theme for the Sims 4 lol
She called The Sims virtual dolls and now I'm questioning everything.
I’ve been saying it for years😂
Lol. I've played Sims since the very beginning, off and on through the years (i'm almost 48).
The sims actually piqued my interest in 3D characters in general. I finally found a program called Poser and, for many MANY years, happily "played" with my virtual dolls.
In fact, that's what that particular community (3D Artists) calls the base figures that we then customise, pose, render, bring into postwork & create beautiful art with.
That said, I never once thought to apply the term to the Sims, although it is accurate!
As soon as Kayla said it, a light bulb went off in my head. Just wait til my partner hears he's been playing with Virtual Dolls! Knowing him, he'll just laugh and load his game up!
Lol... I was right. He laughed and loaded the Sims and said, "So what? They're fun! Nothin' to be ashamed of for anyone of any age!"
ikr it’s broken me
fr!!! it made me realize that i’m basically playing dolls as an adult which i LOVED doing as a child 🤔
my jaw dropped when you told us about how you made little apartments with books for your lps because i did the same thing!!! only i did mine with video cassette tapes. that’s so cool tho!!!
Me too but with boxes of packages what I remember mostly was my mom yelling saying what is she going to do with all of those boxes it was fun and knowing that she also played with lps is so fun because me too and now she plays the sims and I play the sims so that’s really fun
i did this with my barbies!
I made a doll apartment from three cube shaped cubbies in one of those modular shelf things you're supposed to put canvas-covered boxes in, once. The furniture was made of building blocks and other things I found around the house, and since the bottom cube was right near the floor I used it as a garage for the doll's car, which I'd made from Tinkertoys.
I used patterned construction paper to make condos and shoe boxes to make “trailers” lol
I used books for my LPS too😭
Kayla, I love that rug and bed combo in the teens room. Defintaely gonna try it in a build sometime.
Also it was kind of funny and totally how it works in sims, trying SO HARD to get that dollhouse to work and then just scrapping the dollhouse entirely.
Thought you would like to know, my toddler asked to watch you build, and is now watching casted to our TV. He is a future simmer just like mom, I have played every version of The Sims.
Kayla “one of my greatest fears is fire”
Me “don’t you love a toilet that sets on fire more than any of your heirs in a lets play?
Imagine Statefarm sponsoring GrayStillPlays and he’s just like “Statefarm will help you out if you happen to find your house burning to the ground because your cat slaves started a cult and made a sacrifice to Spleens”
Lmao I can hear him saying this 🤣
this might be my favorite build of yours? something about the color choice and palette and even small things like the patterns in rugs feel so warm and modern and retro at the same time. it looks like a truly lovely and realistic place to live
i was a big lps kid too! i did have a big doll house though, but because it was so big my lpses didn't fit properly so i would use boxes and steak knives to build my own dollhouses for them. my grandparents used to go to a hardware store like every weekend, so i would go there with them and just stand in the colour swatch section and pick out all the "wallpapers" and flooring i wanted until they came and picked me back up to leave. it was a great time.
When it comes to how the Sims built and decorated houses and apartments, most of it is hideous and I always redecorate. I've never tried bulldozing an apartment, except the penthouse because that's easy to place. They need to allow more room to edit apartments like being able to change the doors. One time I had a bad glitch in a game where my Sims apartment door completely disappeared and of course you can't put one in so the only way my Sims could leave was for me to teleport them and I ended up moving them out. They need to fix it where you can replace apartment doors, if for no other reason than a door disappearing. lol. I love the way you decorate places in your game.
I love apartment building i swear there arent enough of them love city living and you videos!!!!♡
There are a few small apartments in eco lifestyle if you're looking for more apartments to build in.
I think Simsie has a few videos building in some of them
@@Meteor_Avenue ok tyyy
I always prefer playing in apartments bc it’s small and contained. People don’t build/decorate in them enough anymore.
Simmers: “You can’t change the layouts of apartments much because of the fixed windows, and you can’t switch the door, which sucks”
The T.O.O.L mod: 🤨
meanwhile console players: 🥲
As someone who frequently uses the tool mod, I can say I feel for console players 😂
I think she is referring to being able to do it with cheats, which are in game & things that console players can access (example: bb.moveobjects, etc)
yea and it also deletes that plaque 🤭
I was hoping she would say about tool mod, even tho its a mod not a cheat. I dont think many ppl know that u can change those whit it
I like how the red counters that inspired the whole build got scrapped! 😂 Super cute apartment though
who else loves when simsie furnishes apartments it’s my fav videoooo!!!!
i love how the red counters inspired the whole build then she changed them right away 😂
i remember watching this stream and we were joking around that it was “jake from state farm’s apartment” because she was sponsored by statefarm, and the apartment was red. also i remember everyone in chat like yelling at her to put a pride flag in the pink/green bedroom (:
This whole apartment is giving me New Girl vibes. Like the gang moved out and a family moved in
it’s so nice to see you using items other than base game!! looks great
simsie your videos have done so so much for me recently i really need something to look forward to every day and this hits the spot. thank you so much for your content and energy.
I love style and colors of this apartament, it's quite unconventonal. Also, What I specificly like in your buildings are small rooms - You always menage to make them feel nice and cosy. I love your building style :D
I sometimes just build a 1x2 room and make it a new “entry”/hallway kind off
i love doing this for split apartments too! great place to add a laundry room :)
I always love when you do ‘unlimited’ pack builds. I totally get why you usually limit the amount of packs, and also do just base game, but it’s always so fun to see what you do with the full extent of the game.
I had a friend who lived in an apartment in a small city's downtown and it had no windows at all. There were two doors and a skylight that used to exist but had been boarded over at some point.
I couldn't have done it, but he said he didn't mind. It was only for a year.
The take on not ever stopping playing with dolls got me 🤣 I've been trying to figure out what the feeling was when I play sims and this made it click
please don’t feel like you have to apologize for using a lot of content from packs in your builds! building with only base game probably gets pretty repetitive sometimes, and personally, i love seeing what you can do with a wider variety of items. ❤️❤️
plus it's literally her job to play and have all the packs! people complain whether she uses only base game or a lot of packs :(
I build a foyer or little hallway around the front door! Then I can use whatever door I want as the "front" door. Sometimes I'll put laundry or a trash can in it depending on how much room I'm trying to waste
If you're running out of ideas for challenges, may I suggest a new, "but every room is a different color scheme" challenge? I'm just very interested in how it would turn out.
if you want to remove the plaque you have to go to live mode, shift-click on the plaque (or any objects you want to delete) and press destroy object.
if you want to change apartment windows/doors, you unfortunately have to have the tool mod by tmexi, but if you have it, shift-click & destroy, buy a door/window you want, shift-click again and clock tool cheats, toggle active object (it will turn green), and click on the wall you want your door/window to be on. hope i helped!
You can actually delete/replace apartment doors/windows and remove those “undeletable” objects using the T.O.O.L. mod! You can also remove those specific lot traits using the Unlocked Lot Traits & Challenges mod
absolutely in love with the living room, main bedroom and purple/green room!! it's like each of the rooms were themed around a funky little carpet with really nice contrasting colours, so it allowed everything to look super unique but still tied together:)
Speaking of big dollhouses, when I was 6 my dad made me a 7 foot tall, 12 foot wide dollhouse for my 13 American girl dolls. (Yeah, one spoiled 6 year old.) But it's huge, I don't have it in my room anymore but I'm gonna keep it forever.
I decorated and redecorated and rearranged my Barbie Town House FAR more than I ever played storylines; so it's no wonder I love The Sims. I remember when I was buying Hot Date there was a guy in the aisle and he was saying that he wasn't sure about buying it because his friend pointed out that he was just playing with dolls but on the computer.
Oh I love this!! Finally something that uses lots of packs! I purchase all of the packs that come out mainly for the cas and decorating items so I’m excited to see a build that uses different things!
I love apartments in sims. I always make lots into apartments, its so fun. And this apartment is so cute
I LOVEEE THISSSSSSSSS!!!!!! so glad ur branching out, it looks super cool with all the colors!!!!
Sorry that im late, but it just makes me so happy when you post, it always puts a smile on my face and make me laugh!
This is such a pretty apartment! I love the colours you used and the diagonal walls at the corners make the rooms look so nice and cosy
I love the way you use "Primary bedroom" versus "M*ster bedroom", love the modern vocab and movement away from using outdated terms!
This was a beautiful and amazing build. I also used to use hardcover books as houses when I was younger. When you said you used them as apartments, it immediately took me back to my childhood. I totally forgot I used to do that.
I love how you make homes so realistic and livable rather than something incredibly extravagant. I can definitely see myself using something like this in my play style
loved this!! as always but this was extra cozy & i love when you go out of your comfortzone !! i’m trying to do that more.
As someone whose aunt custom made them I giant doll house I gotta say, it’s the best thing in the world when you’re a kid. I still have it, I used it as a bookshelf as a teenager, I’ll probably use it to display my toys when I finally move out of my parents house (I got my pop figures, I collected holiday Barbie’s as well as Scooby Doo toys, and I incredibly regret giving my monster high dolls to my cousins -who didn’t get dolls and were really jealous then promptly sold them in a garage sale-)
this is literally the apartment that I have been looking for for my Sims family! I don't have all the packs but it's basically perfect!
this is SO cute I feel like it's so hard to make bright and colorful builds in this game because the swatches are all so mismatched which makes this one extra fun. if only I had more than like 3 packs lol. oh well, now I have the challenge of trying to make something this cute in my own game!
I used to play with Littlest Pet Shops too!! And Bratz Dolls (and Barbie’s briefly when I was a bit younger), so it makes perfect sense that we all ended up in the sims world 🥰🥰
Fact: people who had littlest pet shops as kids, now play the sims
11:35 me and my sister did the exact same thing! we loved littlest pet shops and had a bunch of classic disney books in different colours
I was terrified as a child of fire too. I had recurring nightmare that my house caught on fire and I had to rescue my dogs until I was like 12 and I was obsessed with a fire safety video and watched it constantly. I was also terrified to open closed doors in my home incase there was a fire behind them and if I saw a red light reflected in something (like the doorknob) I got absolutely terrified. thankfully i’ve mostly grown out of it but it still haunts me sometimes
Kayla I did the same thing as a kid. I had a bookshelf just for my littlest pet shops and I think I thought of it as a city and I'd build furniture and stuff out of paper for them
Not that I don't enjoy the build videos, because I do, but was wondering when we might see another Nightmare Legacy video? I'm so hooked on that series!
Same here. I love that series so much! 😀
I used to do the same with my mom's library!! It was never a surprise that I loved building homes
omg please do a tiny family apartment too and try to fit as many people in it as you can!! Maybe make like a Dutch box bed or use curtains and stuff
Yes, both builds with basegame/ few packs and builds were you can unleash your creativity with all packs, both is great
Omg you brought back some memories I used to build what I called “book houses” for my Bratz dolls I would make mansions for them out of books and fully furnish them to😂
ive found my self blocking off portions of the apartments and filling them with platforms to create new areas and layouts, definitely recommend.
11:35 omagod kayla !! this is super nostalgic because i had hard cover books on my house and i used to make houses for my dolls with them and YES after that of course i started to play the sims 3 and now 4
I love your videos and how you bring up points that I wish sims 4 had like changing the windows and doors in apartments. I get what you mean with the non-editable doors being tough, I end up using a dark swatch that looks close enough and work what ever colors with it. Even if you want to do a cool color scheme with the dark brown it still works but it sucks that you might have to alter your design because of that.
Ah, I used that rug in my shell challenge (xsugarycarnival), you toured it on stream and both you and several people in chat said you'd never seen it before! It's cool to see you using it now 🥰
Many apartments in my city are “alcoves”. They have the layout of a one bedroom but get away with not having a window in the bedroom because the bedroom walls have a gap between the ceiling and the wall and the door is a barn door. I can’t remember if doors function on half walls but this could be a way to make different floor plans??
re: downloading apartments, you can also delete a piece of wall and then drag the rest of the wall over the empty slot and the game will recognize it as one room.
Thats what I do when I make an apartment for the gallery, I make the room and where the door will be I delete that piece and put the wall out of the room, add a door and lift it back. When saving the apartment for the gallery I click on an outer wall so you get the whole apartment as one room 🙂I am so pleased to see you telling this to others here.
I feel the same about playing dolls and now playing The Sims. This apartment is super cool. I have a little obsession about The Sims so actually I have got almost every single pack, so this apartment is for me :D. I don't have all kits. Maybe this is the time to buy Industrial loft kit. Actually I'm really upset that sectional couch from DHD doesn't have any comfort points, and this from kit has 3 points, so I may buy it. Hava a good day :)
I’ve been following you for years and this is for sure my fav build by you so far, it’s amazing😭🙏
Woah what an amazing build! I'm obsessed with the color pallete omg
the color schemes of this apartment feels kinda lively, I really love it, really shows characters
hey simsie! I've been a fan for YEARS. can you make a house or an apartment that's just a couple teens/YAs living together like the BFF household? 🥺💗
My dad used to get my sisters and I cardboard boxes, scrap fabric, jewels, and more to make our own dollhouses. He worked at a bridal company so it was really nice material. When I’m a mom I’m gonna do the same.
Cute floor plan and color scheme. I’ve been so excited lately to see that you haven’t been limiting your packs. It helps me to discover new items.
i 100% get the being afraid of a color thing. my mom and i have synesthesia (look it up) and for us we can like… smell/feel some colors, and i’ve never had this problem, but my mom gets super anxious and feels really gross when she sees this certain shade of orange.
as for the fear of fire, funny story: i was like 9, and i went to my schools counselor (super catholic school, keep in mind), and told her about this terrifying anxiety dream where my house set of fire and i couldn’t run, like there was a ton of wet cement pushing against my legs, and she smiles and says “god is obviously trying to tell you you’re passionate about something 😌” LIKE-
Every single video there is something you say that we have in common, my biggest fear is fire. It’s so weird the amount of things you’ve said that I’ve been like “me too??” It’s strange. But that’s a huge reason why I love your videos sm lol
That burnt orange color is so pretty and gives great fall vibes!! 🍂
I love this apartment! The main room reminds me of a sitcom or something and I just love it! I’m definitely going to download it! I’m pretty sure I have the packs.
I am so happy you didn’t limit yourself with packs ! Please keep doing they from time to time !
If I could download this, I would add an arched doorway to the empty 1x1 square space between the primary bedroom and the other bedroom. The wall with the clock and add a stackable washer/dryer!
this apartment has STRONG 70's/ f•r•i•e•n•d•s vibes, and I LOVE it
If I built my own RL house from the ground up, I would have a red kitchen. Kind of symbolic colour coding. Red in the kitchen for fire and cooking, and it's energetic so a good environment for waking up and feeling more fired up when cooking. Blue in the WC because of all the water fixtures, and it's a soothing colour. Lavender in the main living space because my favourite colour is purple and a lighter shade is more relaxing, so it would be enjoyable to spend free time in.
this is my favorite apartment you’ve ever done, wow it looks amazing !
I totally agree with the thing about the wall swatches. Its SO hard and i feel like normally I settle for a boring swatch
I've never, ever, EVER seen that swatch on that round rug! OMG!
you can change everything (doors, windows) with T.O.O.L and you can debug delete the plaque (and crime scenes) with MC Command :-) two of my very favourite mods
You can remove the plaque with tool and it's possible to change the windows and the door with this mod too. hust selcte them and delete. replace with new one ( you can't put them directly on the walls, yo have to place it with bb.move objects in the apartment and move it with tool)
Apartments are so good! Like, the only downside are the things you can’t remove, and the sTuPiD HuGe WaLlS.
4:51 like a good neighbor, StateFarm is there
Simsie: I really wish there was a cheat that could help you remove the door
T.O.O.L mod: am I a joke to you?
Lol that doesn’t count as a cheat tho. Bc it’s a mod and not something actually in the game
I'm so glad to see Kayla using more packs in her build!
I have that exact same set of classic stories books! I loved reading those as a child and have actually been meaning to get back into reading them :)
I love that weird corner rug, it has some wild ass swatches.
Kayla I used to build doll houses with card board. I just had more fun making the houses than using the pre-made ones. We also were not wealthy so instead of begging for a new one, I'd make one!
okay this is the 5th video I've watched in a roll from you and now i'm downloading the sims 4 cause I'm inspired to play it again because of you XD
I love what you said about Sims as virtual dolls/dollhouses/little creatures
Along the lines of littlest pet shops, I had one of those old wooden victorian dollhouses with an open back that a relative gifted me and i would turn it into the "community house" for the petshops of that days storyline lol. I miss the early renditions of pet shops
7:32 IMMEDIATELY after Kayla mentions her fear of fire I got an ad zoomed in on a bonfire XD
Oh my gosh I did the exact same thing with red!!! It was my favorite color and then I realized it was fire and blood and I became terrified of it and nauseous over it!
