I just woke up and always try to watch something when I get ready, I’m going through some dark stuff rn and honestly haven’t been getting out of bed or doing anything, but this video has just inspired me to completely redo my worlds, I’m glad I came across it as even tho it’s just sitting here, it’s a start 🖤
i'm making my own save file right now and am deep, deep into it and OMG what i would give to go back in time and watch this !!! so much foresight queen omg
I really like the idea of this video! I hope that in future videos, while you progress with the save file, you continue to share that with us. I find it interesting not only to see the finished product but also the process. I think it also motivates us to create our own save file.
I have a save file I'm building too- when I say building though it's a combination of my own builds and then ones from the gallery. My aim is to create a base file for future saves which really compliments my gameplay style- all lots placed will be also cohesive in appearance with others placed in that neighbourhood and create a variety of lots types amongst the worlds. I like some of your ideas!
You single handedly reignited my love for sims! I love seeing your process and hearing your thinking process- your speed builds are also great to sleep to 😇
i LOVE your realistic basegame home! my sims family started there, also on crick cabana. thank you so much for it ❤️ can't wait to play in more of your builds ❤️
I really enjoyed this video - thank you for sharing. Building a savefile is such a huge project and I love getting other simmers take on how they are tackling it. Community lots are what always trip me up. I think its because I've looked at their placement for so long I forget I don't have to put them in the same place and can even change the lot type to be something different 😅 - I love your idea for using the park for the Mayors house.
Your voice is just so soothing. I’m so glad I found your channel! I looked up starting up your own save file because I’m wanting to start my own tonight!
I just started my first save file based off empty worlds (also Srsly's) and this is so so helpful. I'm easily overwhelmed by such a large project (and impatient) that I really need to get organized. You gave me a lot of great ideas and a place to start. I make sims and decorate but cannot build to save my life. I have to depend on the kindness of strangers sharing their creations! Your builds look amazing, they do look realistic. Great job. Would love to see occasional updates. Thanks for posting this video. 🙂
As much as I use Pinterest, it never occurred to me, that I could make boards for my world saves😭😭 totally doing this since I’m rebuilding every world based on seasons!!
I really loved your voice, it's super relaxing. Thank you very much for your video, I hope you share with us in the future how you are doing with your Safe File, I have been doing one for more than a year and it is quite heavy. You have one more subscriber and now let's watch the video of your fourplex for Willow Creek
Yes!! I have wished you'll make a video like this. I also have been watching Sillee's content a lot. I would love to see your savefile updates! I love these type of videos despite never planning on downloading any of the saves (i don't have that many packs)
awe im glad you enjoyed watching!! i totslly get the not downloading ive struggled with that for other saves , i wanna do a basegame only one at some point!
Great video! This was really helpful as I'm trying to build a save! PS: 15:28 if you're going for a more American approach, for the house names based on roads I would recommend naming them something like "123 Founders RD" for a more realistic approach instead of "Founders RD 123" (in my experience at least).
great video! thanks for the shout in the intro 🥰 i also love how you have your map pic with handwritten notes and the little key lol that looks so cute!!
this gives me idea to make a Pinterest board for each world because ngl I hate to see different aesthetic for each lots in the neighbourhoods lol tysm!
This is great, I'm about to start my own in combination with a few mods to enable more shops on lots and home regions (plus increasing sim limits for zones.) Ngl if you play with MCCC, increasing the sim allowance was one of the best things I ever did, though I wish it could be applied per lot. (I set it to base 60, which is fine for the big nightclubs and overworld zones, but the tiny cafes and bars bug out).
@@aluhhsim maybe only the ones you feel inspired to do? I started editing the townies in my own save and tweaking their lore a bit more to make them more interesting. For example my Bob and Eliza will have had a child as teens now they have to live in an apartment in the basement of Eliza's parents.
Thanks for showing this! I've always wanted to learn HOW TO create my own blank save file! ((*tho, playing the #drifterchallenge (created by a good friend of mine), you HAD TO physically go in and delete all the houses and evict everyone))
they're just live edit fences from base game :) i have the tips on how to get access to the live edit menu at the bottom of my description, after you do those steps just search DEBUG in the menu and then scroll to find them :)
You put the names of the house in the names of the family. The lots with family have two buttons for title and description, one is the family name and info the other the lot name and info.
My only problem with the blank save is I worry that it'll remove lots like the ones needed for Strangerville's story to function, I've not actually tried to play strangerville with this save file so I don't know lol
totally get that! i think a way to fix this would be to save the military science base lot to your library and then just place it in your blank file, then everything should function normal for gameplay!
Hey i have a question, i'm trying to build a save file of my own and create lore through family trees, is there a way to instantly kill sims / turn them into ghosts? using mccc i have to actually press play and wait for the sims to die, but if i do this way the time will pass and i don't want that :( i could also do that and adjust time using ui cheats but it's kinda buggy.... basically i want to set up all families and lots and still be 8am of a sunday whenever i start playing it in the future, with no autonomy development. is that possible in any way or should i just give up on setting up deceased sims?
hmmmm there hasnt really been way that ive found to do all that without passing time. But if you go into settings you can turn off autonomy for all the sims (even the ones you arent playing), i think its in the gameplay section, that way the sims wont do anything even as time passes. Alternatively you could bring all the sims you want to get rid of to one lot so you can do more than one at a time while time passes, if that makes sense!
There's a generation mod where you can kill off sims with no moodlets for the alive sims, I can't remember the name but if you search up generations mod on google, it should be the first one. I have it in my game and it's awesome, you can also generate families for sims you created before but don't want to go through the hassle of creating grandparents and such, you can also match the family's genetics so they all look similar!
@@jaylani427 hey quick update! the name of the mod is Life manager, it would be perfect for what i need as it generates multiple generations for family trees and it even gives me the gravestones, the only issue is that if i randomize a dead parent, it won't let me change their names 🥲that doesn't fully work for me as i'm trying to recreate some familes from previous games, BUT it is nice to also have family trees for random sims in ts4, so thanks for the tip! for the ones i need specific names i will just create the sim and kill with mccc using death by cowplant, i found out this one just vanish the sim even if the game is paused!
Maybe ive been staring at my computer too long or something but i go to the link and i dont know where to download, it doesnt go automatically and i see the venue changes one but not the blank link to download pls help
Hey, amazing video! I've tried doing this before, but I ran into a problem with the werewolf packs. Since the townies are no longer there, there's no one to invite sims into the packs, and it become unplayable. You can't just download the original pack townies from the gallary either cus they're not automatically in the werewolf packs. Do you know any way to fix this issue?
ive never done any werewolves gameplay so sadly im a lost cause for this🙁 im sure there is a save version where all the families are there but the lots are removed so you could try searching for that maybe?
This may sound like a dumb question but i have map replacements with some of my maps, would i have to get rid of my map replacements to download the srslys boank save?
not a dumb question at all! you shouldn't have to get rid of the map replacements since those are just aesthetic, the blank save is just like any new save you would start just without the orginal lots - so you should be good! i can't confirm it for sure because i've never used map replacements but im 99% sure you can do both!
you can make your own save on Xbox youll just have to bulldoze all the lots yourself and place them all yourself - so its possible, just a bit tedious!
Ive been having that issue with one of my saves as well where it crashes everytime i play it. Sadly your save might just have a bug or something, cause you dont need the worlds built to play. wish i could be more help🫶
@@aluhhsim im more of a music producer so I dotn know if you can do this in video editing software, but i would use audacity or ableton live/fl studio (if you have access) and then use a de-essing plugin (there should be free ones online i think) over ur vocal track
Haii, I had a question I’m also building or making my own save file but the thing that I find difficult is there an easy way to make your sims have a relationship with the neighbors. Have a Blessed day 🩷
the only way i know how would be with mods: MC command center or UI cheats! i have my sims do an introduction and then set to whatever i want the relationship at :)

I just thought id comment incase you didnt realise but the description is about a speedbuild!!
haha thank you! i actually had this as a scheduled post and forgot to change the description before it went up😭😭
i'm making my own save file right now and am deep, deep into it and OMG what i would give to go back in time and watch this !!! so much foresight queen omg

Keep going you got this! Took me over a year to finish!

that makes me unbelievably happy!! thank you for playing in them😊
Save file videos and town lore are my absolute favs !! Can't wait to see the update and other worlds too.
ahh yay!! i cant wait to share it!
15:52 If you played older sims games it might be fun to name some streets after worlds/neighborhoods in older sims games.
oh thats a super cute idea i might do just that!!🫶

Please make more videos like this!! I never thought about playing like this and I’d love to see more behind the scenes!!

LIVING for this. I neeed moooorrre ☺️☺️
Aahhh this gave me so much motivation to make my own save file
YAY!!
omg ur vibe for willow creek reminds me of shameless… love it! keep up the great work btw! i love ur vids!
ive never actually watched shameless but i know those vibes are exactly what im going for so yay!!
this gives me idea to make a Pinterest board for each world because ngl I hate to see different aesthetic for each lots in the neighbourhoods lol tysm!
omg same here it bugs me so much😭 pinterest boards are great for planning it out
I’ve nearly finished my ultimate save file, extremely excited to start playing, I keep checking to see what npc the game makes and deleting them 😂
omg i hate when those random NPCs spawn😠
@@aluhhsim yes it happens sm 😂

THANK YOUUUU SMMMM ILYYYY 🧏🏻♀️🎀🎀🎀🎀
UR MOST WELCOME🙂↕️💗
Yasssss, I created a retro/one save file if you ever wanna see it!
oh thats so cool! id love to!
Thank you for this! I'm so excited to build my own save.
awe ur most welcome!!
what a cool idea, thanks for the walkthrough! subscribed 🥰
welcome!!
@@aluhhsim thanks! :D
I can’t wait for part 2
Hardest thing is to delete sims 4 generated npc’s 🤮
So for my save I downloaded npc from the gallery and hopefully that will help !
I'm also interested in seeing what you are going to do with the townies
do you think i should include all of them??🙈
@@aluhhsim maybe only the ones you feel inspired to do? I started editing the townies in my own save and tweaking their lore a bit more to make them more interesting. For example my Bob and Eliza will have had a child as teens now they have to live in an apartment in the basement of Eliza's parents.
Yesss I love this!! ❤
will you be doing one of these for each world that you have? i’d love to see your ideas for like san myshuno and stuff
hopefully in the future if i can get those builds done i will! i do love decorating apartments so San Myshuno is definitely a possibility!
I’m curious about the mayor's house, is it going to be a sims house or like a build that represents where the mayor would be? Like a public space
i was thinking a house for the actual sim, but i could probably do a combo lot since its such a big plot!
And now I want to create my own save file 😭😭😭😭
do it its so fun and rewarding!!
Thanks for showing this! I've always wanted to learn HOW TO create my own blank save file!
((*tho, playing the #drifterchallenge (created by a good friend of mine), you HAD TO physically go in and delete all the houses and evict everyone))
of course, glad i could help!
love it!
Wish you could do things like this on PlayStation… I especially feel like PS5 could support this.
For the houses that you placed, I love the fences and yard pieces that make it look more realistic - are these from a specific pack?
they're just live edit fences from base game :) i have the tips on how to get access to the live edit menu at the bottom of my description, after you do those steps just search DEBUG in the menu and then scroll to find them :)

totally get that! i think a way to fix this would be to save the military science base lot to your library and then just place it in your blank file, then everything should function normal for gameplay!
What packs would you reccomend for someone with a similar playstyle to yours? i have a few but im trying to get the top teir ones first 🙏🏼
probably cats and dogs, get together, growing together for starting. they are just basic and handy!
hmm probably cottage living, get together, cats and dogs and werewolves would be my top picks for building :)
hi i’m new! when you’re rebuilding a world, and play in it, are you only gonna encounter sims you’ve placed in this world or all sims from base game??

How about founders cove
I just started playing the sims so I am doing some research before I play
I’m guessing you can’t do this on Xbox
you can make your own save on Xbox youll just have to bulldoze all the lots yourself and place them all yourself - so its possible, just a bit tedious!

How do I add another background to the maps? I know I cant chabge the worls itself but I atleast want to change the map...can i overide it
im pretty sure if you search "sims 4 map overides/overlays" you should find something like what you're looking for :)
I save these as one world at a time. If you do a huge save file with multiple worlds, won’t your computer have issues?
No that was only a problem in Sims 3
No i dont think it should - ive never had a problem with it before!
I downloaded the blank save and rebuilt oasis spring only and somehow can’t play with my sim. Does anyone know why?
hmmm is your game crashing and thats why you cant play or is it something else?

I love your videos! For the address to add more realism try 3 or 4 digit numbers like 1342 Foundry Ct ?
great idea, thank you!!
Yess i was thinking 3-4 digits too & i like the idea of the numbers being infront of the street name
