- In this The Sims 4 tutorial I explain how to build a glass pool. I did not use any CC for this and only used Base Game & City Living. You don't need any other packs to follow this beginner friendly tutorial. Create your own realistic looking glass pools and let your Sims take a swim!

Love your tutorials! I found this fence end-piece in debug which is just a thin vertical plank more or less and has some color options (black, white and a mossy green and something else) and doesn't cause texture fighting when merged into eachother. This object is like made for those pool corners. 😁 I believe it is basegame and appears kinda late in the scroll in debug menu.
This sounds AMAZING! Thank you so much this is super helpful!
Scrolled through the entire debug menu and still haven't found it... ah, the joys of Sims-ing
If you search) woodplank’ a woodplank Will come up.l!
So I'm trying to follow step by step but when I go to apply this foundation to the pool I'm getting an error "Cannot use Stilt Foundations for Pools." Is this a new error with today's update? Are we still able to do this and I'm missing something?
Simetimes I feel like I don't play the same game as the builders😂😂😂😂
Alex De la Loire all the time
Alex De la Loire I’m not alone that’s me watching builds because I stay wondering where they find half the furniture and windows I be seeing. ( mainly I only have two stuff packs so I’m broke and have to deal with wack stuff)
*watching builders build houses with all the packs*
Me: ....I have a basegame box...
You know, you can get all of the pack using the *EVIL* way
@Kathy Fernandez by pressing alt? That's what I do (both Sims 3 and 4 camera)
Tbh they should really make glass pools and round pools a actual thing in the game :/
Yeah but so should cars, the ability to change lot sizes, apply textures to anything, spiral stairs, CLEAR windows, and many other previous abilities we have so sadly lost.
@@wiseowl1580 I agree with everything but cars. Why does everyone want cars?😅 Also, i know sims team has been unfair and lazy for some time, but i also know all of these are much more harder to make work in sims 4. Still wish they actually listened to what we want...
And rouded stairs too or spiral
Ah, Identity V on a Sims video, nice
@@amasenak I want cars bc my pc is kinda slow and having loading screens to go to a lot that is right besides me is a bit ridiculous
omg kelsey from buzzfeed multiplayer used one of your builds in her gameplay
Yessss!!! :) I am still very excited about this :D
eww buzzfeed
Buzzfeed? Literal tãŕđ§.
You can also use shift while placing the foundation, it applies the foundation to that single side, it might work
I just tried it, generally it works but when the invisible foundation is right next to another one (On one line basically) it doesn't work and you have to use the workaround! :)
Damnit, I was so excited to do this but I don’t have City Living.
Good news: It was added to the base game in a patch a while after I made this video. Same method but you don't need any packs, yay!
Does this method mot work anymore? It won't let me place a pool over a foundation at all. ):
I really appreciate how you explain things slowly and clearly, and methodically go through every scenario we might encounter. SO helpful!
Thank you for this!! Wanted to share in case anyone else was in the same boat that I don’t have city living but the grey looking foundation called ‘simple foundation’ did the same thing for me! It doesn’t have a pack symbol on it but I have get famous, island, seasons ☺️☺️
This is what works for ps4 so thank you! I couldn't find the foundation she was using so I thought I wasn't going to be able to make my glass pool
This was great! Here's my notes: if you fence off the pool or the flooring you can change the foundation by itself without the tricks because foundation is changed by rooms. And the shelf acts like that because it's been pointed away from the wall, so it's basically freeplacing
Thank you so much, this is so helpful! :)
I have never been one for building in the Sims, always been one for rushing my builds and playing with my sims, but over the last few days I've really gotten into building and your channel has really encouraged me to explore different things, from landscaping and using cheats to modify my builds, have to say I am creating some of my best ever builds and really enjoying it! I'm on XBox, so have come across a few differences which have been a little challenging to work out, but with some great resources online, I've managed to find solutions! Thank you so much 💚
Kate Emerald, you are my hero. You're so intelligent and creative with everything you do. If I ever need inspiration I know I can come to your channel. SO MUCH LOVE
Great tutorial!! I am learning so much from you. You are giving me so many ideas I might forget to play my sim and just do nothing but build.
Thank you sooo much! :)
that invisible foundation is soooo nice, i use it on windows to make it look like they're opened to the outside. looks so good on sulani builds!!
I was trying to make a glass sided pool earlier today! I couldn’t figure it out... THANK YOU! I will use this tomorrow! 👏🏻
Happy to hear this was helpful! :)
if you press alt or shift (i dont remember which) when changing foundation, it just changes that section! also works with wall trim-- it'll just add wall trim to one wall at a time. im pretty sure it's shift....
It doesn't work when the foundation is directly next to the translucent one though, it still changes the whole side in this case. But usually it works great! :)
Yes, thank you! I love that you show all the ways to fix/work-around potential problems too!
Thank you happy to hear that! :)
I would love to have a room in the house that looks like a big fish tank. I figured out that you can place a pool on the second story of a building, then surround the walls with tall glass windows. Since I don't have City Living, that is as close as I can get to having a sweet indoor pool/tank. So there's something people can try
This is CRAZY! I don't know how you find all these amazing hacks in the game!
Just a note, especially if you're playing with the base game only, you can go down one level from the pool (basement) and put pillars in for the corners of the pool. And if you don't want to build a deck around it, you can press and hold Shift while placing foundation to apply it to just one side at a time. That way, you can put walls (foundation) on the three (or however many) sides you want to, and only use the invisible placeholder foundation on the side you actually want it.
Not sure if this was in the video and I just missed it, which could be, but I had to build an empty room first and then build the pool in it or else I got the error message that Stilt Foundations can't be applied to pools.
Look for Outlook Mansion by Seashelli in the gallery to see my glass pool inspired by this tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to make this video for us!
You can also hold the Shift key when applying foundation texture. That only applies it to one side (or segment) at a time.
When I try this the foundation looks the same as yours, however it comes up looking like drywall instead of clear :(
Canucks in China same!
Elise Fleuren mee toooooo!
same
Same
I can't even see them swimming just a shadow😢
Legit thought that foundation was bugged in my game lmao
It doesn't work for me :( Nothing happens when I place it out
Yay you were featured on Buzzfeed Multiplayer!! Congrats! ❤️❤️❤️
Yessss, I am so excited! :) Thank you!!
I would have never guessed to look in the hidden objects for a clear foundation "wallpaper" - so so cool! and thanks for also showing tricks for every eventuality :D
I play vanilla base game, but achieved a glass-walled pool by setting windows into the sides of the pool. Any of the full height window options will do the job - it's not one single long pane of glass, but in the real world it wouldn't be, anyway.
They're a great novelty light well for basement rooms.
A couple of months after that video this foundation was added to the base game so you can now build this exact pool with base game only :)
The fact that you heart all your comments just shows you are a caring TH-camr ❤️
Aww, I love you all so much!
I love this thank you so much! Yesterday I did the tiltes windows and it looked awesome!
Yay, thank you! :)
but now you dont need city living to make the pool transparent anymore cause i have done this a few times and i only have base game
Just thought you might want to know, if you encase the top of your pool in a fence so it creates a room you can change any of the foundations without it affecting the pool foundation, You can then remove the fence after you are done :)
That's so useful thank you SO much!
You are more than welcome 😁
You can click the alt or the shift (I forget which) to color one side of it
That's a very good trick but it's not working when the normal foundation is right next to the translucent one. It still tries to color the whole thing. :)
Se ve a los Sims cuando se bañan? Look the sims in the pool?
Al tratarse de cimiento solo en la planta baja? The pool only in floor 0?
Thanks. Gracias.
Yes, the Sims are visible inside the pool it's just like glass! :) This type of pool only works on ground level because you can not use foundation on any other level! :)
You're litteraly the queen of Sims 4 build hacks!!!
Aww thank you!
Nice video girl, that work and discover news trickss
Thanks for the tutorial a youtuber I watched did it and I was always doing it wrong
I just used the vertical light strip from spa day, in the same area as the horizontal ones!
What expansion pack do you need for that lot/world?
Amazing video I’m gonna make the best pool and I’m gonna look rich!🤪
Hii, I love your videos! I was wondering if anyone could help me with the cheats on Mac because I can’t get them to work, I open the cheat console, use the testing cheats and it does say it works but when I try to input any cheat it does nothing.
OMG thanks you are the best!!!!
I'm going to recomend you to all my friends!!!! ❤
Thank you so much how sweet of you! :)
Hey If you dont have city living there is actually a base game one I found it myself
The show hidden objects isn’t showing the different foundations😮… I tried but it won’t work
Another Great tutorial!!! I am by no means as great as you are with building! But your tutorials give me hope!!😍😍😍😍❤❤❤thank u💚
Thank you! :)
the thing that i am struggling whit is building the roofs in sims 4 they always look so failed...
If you press shift when placing foundation paints, it will color only one face of foundation, not the entire room block
I know but not when the pool is on the same side as the rest of the foundation, I talk about this issue in my updated version of this pool (The base game version) and show the issue! :) Thank you for your comment!
You can press shift and it only applies to one side
Great tutorial!But I have an advice that I don't know if it will work, have you try to press the Shift botton (or Control botton, I can't remember right now) while your are painting the foundations? it will only paint a segment of the foundation!^^
Thank you! :)) yes it works but not when the foundations are right next to each other, it then still tried to color the whole area. :) But generally it works!
Kate Emerald thank you! I thought it would work,but It is good to know how to fix it instead! ^^
Omg Clare callery noticed you well donee xx
Yayyy, I just watched the video! Thank you so much for letting me know! :))
Once again Another stunning tutorial I am head over heals in love with these you have really helped me boost my building skills! I tell everyone that asks me wow how u learn this? I simply reply watch kate emerald she is amazing!
Thank you sooo much this means so much to me :D
So very true. .Kate is the Best and her tutorials are just awsome. ..👍
@@felizcrazy totally agree love them all!
Thanks so much for providing such detailed explanations. Much more helpful than many other channels. 😘
did i watch this entire video knowing full well i only have laundry day? yes, yes i did.
I have always been wondering how to raise and lower objects! Glad I discovered it in your video! Thanks so much.
thank you so much for sharing this Kate
Thank you so much for your comment my friend! :)
thanks . i tried this yd but couldnt make it work. i forgot to add fondation under the pool.
So it eventually worked? :)
I 1000% can not build the pool above ground like you are doing. I typed in the cheats you mentioned and the pool still builds down rather than up.
How come you didn't just use a regular column? Do they jump on top of the foundation?
Anyway, I got a few new ideas as always. Thank you. 😘
Yes, they just jump up unfortunately! :)
@@KateEmerald Ah, I see. And I'm already playing around with basements and raising up the columns in my mind ... 😆
I was wondering if anyone could help me on this. I am not able to place a roof on rooms. It says ‘cannot place in enclosed room’,and if there is no room there it just falls to the ground. I have taken off my cc and mods and it still will not work. Please help!
Does it happen on any lot and with any build or only in specific cases? Did you try using the room tool and not just the wall tool? Sounds like a glitch to me. One option is always to repair the game in Origin.
It has been happening on all lots, and I have tried using the room tool. I will try repairing the game as soon as possible. Thank you so much for the advice!
Lol, I simply place completely plain windows from the base game to the whole pool and it looks amazing!
Definitely looks amazing but it's a different look. :) I like both, when I build a base game house it's a good option.
I just love your tutorials they are sooo easy and pretty
Thank you sooo much! :)
oh thank god. just saw this in a lilsimsie shell challenge and died over it and then yt recommends this vid when i come back to the front page
omg thank you very much just I wondered how we were doing xD (I haven't finished the video yet ) #teamfrench
Thank you sooo much! :)
@@KateEmerald No problem :D
Kate did you see buzzfeed multiplayers newest sims video???? They use one of your builds!!
OH MY GOD! I just checked for the video after your comment and I am freaking out hahaha OMG!
@@KateEmerald hahaha so happy for you that build is stunning
Thank you lovely! :) I am still buzzing :D
You’re amazing! I will never stress this enough!
How do you find out these tricks? 😱
Why bb.showhiddenobjects doesn’t work when I try?
Ohhh Kate you are just awsome. ..thank you sooo much for this tutorial. You are really the Best. ...😙😙😙
Thank you so much for your kind comment! Hope you have a perfect day! :)
I can’t add pool in the platform :( it shows a warning that pool can’t be build on top of the platform :( anyone know why ?
Pools can't be added to platforns, they didn't include this feature. Pools can only be added to foundations, that's what I am using in the video :)
Thanks for sharing! Is there any way that you know of to apply the transparent foundation color while the pool is on the second or third floor? Doesn't look like there is a way to do this?
im wondering can you put a small octagonal pool just on the corners without it connecting. like its a smaller pool within a pool? i cant for the life of me figure out how.
Hello Kate , I try some of your build and some work & some don't . I try to download from TSR . but no go . I love your build very helpful
When your poor and can’t get the game packs and stuff so you just have to get a bunch of cc that makes your game lag😐
Mary Jarrett use moo and any full height windows and you will have a glass walled pool.
Why I can’t do it on console 😭 is not letting me build a pool on a foundation
Wonderful Kate......... You Are So Creative........ Wish I Had Your Patience To Try All These Things......... Meaning: I Have No Patience......... Glorious IDEA LOVE
Thank you! :)
Hey Kate! My mom has been watching your tutorials, despite not ever playing Sims in her life lol. She wants to know where your accent comes from. Just country will do, maybe capital. 😘
Aww, tell your mom I say hi! :) How lovely that she watches my tutorials! I am from Germany! :)
I should have known! I have a friend from Frankfurt! He sounds a lot like you do!
@@KateEmerald uh das hört man ^^ Bin auch aus Deutschland
I do have city living, but my debug foundation doesn't look transparent at all...
Curious question, what happens if you apply a stilt foundation to a pool? I think it would just simply not work, it wouldn't let you do it.
my pool always get very deep, which i dont want. i want to just the height of the foundation, any idea how to do that? thankyou
i love your tutorials, i really suck at building, you helped me a lot! thank you :)
that “foot illumination” thing doesn’t exist anymore. so what can i use to replace it
Great idea! Thanks for share it 😊
It won’t work for me :( it tries to build the pool underneath the foundation and says nah can’t do it champ you’re underneath foundation
Thank you for the tutorial! But how can the sim get into the pool?
You connect it to a foundation so it's on one level with the foundation in the back so your Sim can use a ladder or get it without one. :)
Any idea how to change the pool sides opposite the viewing angle from opaque to translucent?
Great job! Love your tutorials. Going to try some out.
Yay, thank you! :)
For some reason, mines will not let me place it saying that I can use a stilt foundation for a pool. 😩
I dont work for me i have city living too?
Did you activate the cheat?
Amazing videos! Does the debug stuff disappear when you update The Sims like mods do?❤️
Thank you! :) No it shouldn't disappear! :)
Kate Emerald ok thanks!
What we’ve been waiting for
Yay, hope it's helpful! :)
Kate Emerald Very!! ^u^
YOU ALWAYS VERY HELPFUL thank u so much❤ you're my best teacher ever ❤❤
(I'm not good at English.. so i can't get a lot of comments, but I love all your videos.)
Thank you sooo much I am so happy to hear that! :) Also your English is perfectly fine!
@@KateEmerald ❤-❤ thank you
I'm happy to tell you so ❤-❤
Great tutorial as per always!
As I've got these packs now (finally!) I'll be trying this out.
How does the surface of the pool get so glassy and crystal clear? The pool colors in the game I have aren't like that :(
I dont know why but i cant bulid on water in sulani with this 😭
not working on my game always, pool cant be placed under platform
Love you'r Videos !
But i can't find the (Lonely Post) no matter what i do :/ ps4 here.
Hi i hope u can help me why i can put the pool on platform tool? It's so confusing 😢
the second cheat didn't work for me :(
Can you type the cheat here? Because I have try many times but it doesn't work for me.
can you make a tutorial how to make a glass pool in basement?
Anyone else on ps4 having an issue with the pool trim after making their walls invisible? There's no way for me to remove the very visible trim piece so it sticks out so bad.
I'm so sad, the glass foundation isn't showing up.. I tried everything😅
Same here too
