Yes, we need more "off the grid" items. A water pump or working well, generator, solar panels, ability to put a fire out on an off the grid lot, a bucket system: where you can collect water, have that in your inventory then use for whatever you need. So many things are needed to fix that lot trait. Oh and more of the lights that should work need to be added into the list of "works with off the grid." Like the candle chandelier from Jungle Adventure... why doesn't that one work?
Wait, you can't put the fire out on the off grid lot? Wtf, Sims use fire extinguishers anyway and you don't need power to have that... :/
Soooo truuuue 🙄
@@deliriouscheeto I don't know about indoor fires, but bonfires that get out of hand, your Sim just freaks out and gives you the wave of "I can't do that" when you tell them to extinguish it. But if you have power, they put it out with an extinguisher. When you normally shut off a Bonfire, you throw a bucket of water on it, but if it is burning and expanding to more items, suddenly you no longer can use that bucket of water. It makes no sense, and is very frustrating.
@@andrewmoeller1987 EA is just getting funny at this point
There's also a wall light from Cats & Dogs that clearly has a candle in it, and IIRC is described as being a candle- but it doesn't work while off grid.
James you should do a tiny home with the random pack generator.
YES!
YESSSS
But with the tiny home pack as your 'base'.
He would probably end up with the my pets stuff pack. 🤣🤣🤣
Beach girls Gardening haha probably
James: builds shipping containers
Eco living: hold my windmill
I don’t normally comment but this was one of my favourite builds in a while. Your eye for interior design has really come on. Long gone are the black white and grey builds 😂
we love character development
I read your comment before watching and was so excited for a build that wasn't mostly black/white/grey and then I watched the build and now I'm confused because it is black/white/grey with barely any colour!!
@@lasttimecommenting shots fired
James: *is explaining how you can customise the build to suit your needs*
Me: yes indeed that makes a lot of sense I should definitely use this build because it looks good and is very functional instead of creating a massive rectangle with one object in each corner yes indeed.
lmaooo same. I am so bad at building. I attempted to make a micro home and it ended up being 2 squares connected by stairs and everything is outside except for the bed and electronics. What happens if it rains? Free shower.
Remember when the community voted for laundry day? One of the options was off the grid living, I believe gameplay functions had to do with generators, etc. Don’t get me wrong, I really love the laundry day pack, but my vote was for off the grid living. 😓
i think of this whenever they talk about wanting solar panels because that was an option and I am still sad it lost.
yeah I wanted solar panel so bad, I love laundry day stuff and all but I also voted for off the grid and I always hope they are going to give it to us soon I really want to have the possibility to build green houses ya know... but I guess I'm gonna deal with the debugs one for now
I think off the grid living would have been great to where they could have included the washbucket and hang dry. They could have done so much with that pack! So unfortunat
@@EnigmaticLucas especially since these items already exist as debug items, all they'd have to do is polish up the textures and add functionality to them
There is a lot of things that need to be worked out for that "Off the grid" trait. Like, why can't I put out fires on a lot without power?
video idea: take the most wierd items from the catalogue (could be debug too), that u have never or very rarely used because u don't know how to or haven't figured out where to use them. Now take some of them and make them work.
Doesn't need to be a full house, you could do it show room style.
Reetta Aittamaa ive done this already try checking my 2x2 and 2x3 house build you will be shocked hahaha i hope you subscribe to and like my videos :)
GRIM GAMING what’s the name of that video ? I just subbed :)
@@thesimsmentor oh nice!!
There should be the title in there you can check it out hahaha thank you so much 😍
Shawna Wirl the title is 2x2 hous but i did it also in the 2x3 house build
A lot of times in the States that second living room is called a family room. Where the fam gathers to watch tv/movies, game, etc, while the living room is more for quieter pursuits-company/conversations, reading, doing work on a laptop. Love the whole look of this build, feels friendly and self sustainable.
IrishDuchess75 I’m in Aus and we (my family at least) use the term family room and living/lounge room too
Sara Mitchell I figure it’s a pretty common labeling, but didn’t want to presume regarding other countries. 🙂
IrishDuchess75 normally (in my idea, I’m british) a main, overall room like that where everyone goes especially if guests are over is called *the lounge* but a comfier sort of extra one more for family is *the living room* :)
We call it a den!
Meanwhile in England houses are so small the living room can't even contain the whole family and you can hear your neighbours arguing through the walls anyway so there's no point in a quiet room for reading.
Child (after growing up): Mama can I make the second living room my bedroom?
Mama: No, you'll stay on your 2x3 room, Mama needs her tv-room to watch soap operas.
Loved the house, ahah
Adriana Cardoso hahahah! this house could be like a 3/4 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms but that’s okay, it’s just james lol
Oh, just remembered something I was trying last year, like in October I think, before an Origin update did my computer in.
I was creating a cave.
I lowered the ground elevation and began adding debug rocks around and above. On top of the cave I added trees, and few other plants.
Inside the cave, before the top rocks of cave get added, I placed those crystal looking items. I then placed and shrunk down lights to be underneath the crystals so they'd glow inside the cave, and omg it looked so amazing at night.
I was nearly finished with my cave lot when Origin had an update and after that, Origin wouldn't open Sims 4, and it didn't think I even had it. So that sucked.
But if you ever find yourself with the time to try something like that, go for it.
i made one of these this week in sulani! instead of messing with the ground, i used a lo that had access to water and placed the crystals in there, so my mermaids could sleep in the water surreounded by pretty crystals
Omgggg this is the coolest idea ever, I have to try this!! I’ve been trying to come up with an idea to use those debug crystals from realm of magic.
You know you could have just copied your save file and tray file (gallery items) and just redownload Sims 4 and put the files back.... and it would have work... Files will be found under:
Documents - electronic arts - Sims 4 - tray/saves
@@we_muzt_rize_up8665
The Origin update went that bad that I couldn't open anything within the Sims 4. Sucks cuz I spent hours creating it to make sure it looked really good. Added certain trees and flowers, bushes and grasses. It looked magical and colorful and it was basegame only.
@@TiredMomma Oh wow that's horrible... I guess we gotta always make a backup copy of files every time we end sims4..
Fun fact! Cabbage and cauliflower are actually cultivars of the same plant! So is broccoli, and a few others.
This build is a lot of fun, too! I like the idea of container homes, they've always looked interesting.
When you continue Max Power series, he should move to one of your tiny house building so he can build his skills faster
and once again leave his family behind!
ashullu this!! I am not really a fan of Myra anyway 💩
I'm doing some super sims stuff myself and have used micro homes to max out a skill from level one in 2 days flat!. Very powerful exploit (provided you have all the skill-boosting traits)
My GOD James has been putting out AMAZING builds lately, whatt???!!!
Chuckle Honeybear I couldn’t agree more!
I’m so glad you’ve gotten back into more wacky builds. I go back to look at your other builds and you always said “if only we had terrain tools...” “if only we had glass roofs...” “if only we had configurable stairs...” it’s amazing to see what u can do with all those tools
In this video, James Turner basically directs the Eco Lifestyle expansion.
Samaj predicted Eco Lifestyle confirmed
is anyone else rewatching this during quarantine and realizing James literally describes eco living?
You can't eyedrop a debug object but there is an other way to "copy" them. Make a small room in which you place the object you want copy and save the room to your library. You can access your saved rooms in buildmode and once you place the room there is a copy of the debug object inside. This way you don't have to scroll through the long and unorganized debug menu looking for a specific object.
(This method does require bb.moveobjects cheat if you wish to copy a big object)
This is so good! So you could kind of make your own folder system by saving different rooms and then place the room that has the item you want. A little impractical and work to set up but maybe easier than scrolling every time.
I never thought of that thanks
That's a great idea if you use a few debug objects a lot but it wouldn't be practical for a lot of objects or indeed all of them. Still a cool idea though. :-)
That's brilliant! And you can give them searchable names, too!
Thank You for keeping your website up to date. I use the 'disable packs' when building for friends. This way I don't worry I will put something in the build they can not use!!
When you plopped Baby Yoda in there I almost choked! Now I gotta have that in every single house...and every single room.
I lived in a shipping container for two years, it was definitely tiny and definitely not as nice as these
Same
that's super interesting, what was it like? ive not seen a shipping container converted into a home before.
I really cannot understand why EA didn't include Bunk Beds with Tiny Living. It would have been the perfect pack to add them to the game... I really hope that they aren't planning to do another 'money-grab' stuff pack, with Bunk Beds in it, like they did with ' The-pack-that-shall-not-be-named ' =D
They actually talked about this in the live stream where they were showcasing this pack. Their reasoning was that they figured we would get more use/value with murphy beds rather than bunk beds. They were seriously considered before they decided on murphy beds. They wanted to add both, but since this is only a stuff pack, they can't really do that. They're currently trying to work bunk beds into future packs, but they want to make sure that it's the most valuable option for us first.
CC creator Ravasheen just posted a functional bunkbed and loft set. Its so cute, you should check it out.
@@lace__ How would we get more use out of murphy beds? They don't even save space.
Also, it's only a stuff pack, so they can't possibly add two different types of beds? Fuck EA.
Is it possible to build a tiny home on one of the not rental lots in San Myshuno? Would be nice to have a small rooftop house with a big green rooftop garden around it.
Greetings from Germany, love your videos!
I think it should be possible, yeah! You can go in "edit world" mode (next to the gallery option) while in the "edit world" mode you can click your desired lot and make it a residential lot in the upper left corner (you click the name tag thingy of the lot which should show you that you can change the lot into the lot of your liking: residential) and you can start building your tiny rooftop home!😊
Hii ich komme auch aus DE auch eine Simssüchtige😂
The sims 4 : the land of missed opportunity
And I love when I see other people not wanting Sims 5 to come out now because Sims 4 feels incomplete. Sims 4 has been out for pretty much 6 years now. If it feels incomplete now, it'll feel incomplete in another 6 years.
@@raindropsneverfall Lol oof the truth hurts I feel attacked 😂 I used to be one of those people. Eventually I realized that the issues I had with the game were so fundamental that delaying Sims 5 wouldn't make it better
This pack has Semaj in his element and it’s the best! Loving these builds James 🤗
Me: continuously pausing the video for the first 8 minutes because it sounds like my baby is crying James at 8:30: there’s a whistling sound Me: 😶
James, you will NEVER stop surprising me with your builds! Each new idea is crazier than a previous one. I love all of them :)
Kacper Nowak me too im always surprise. You want to be more surprise bro check out my sims 4 house build there is a lot of tricks that ive done that even jame dont know it yet. Hahaha
Dude I love the Star Wars tea! The Mandalorian is so good, thanks for mentioning it it's so bloody good!!
Anyone remember that we had solar panels in sims2? good times
I think they were also in Sims 3, plus wind turbines, or am I remembering this wrong?
The old games were so much better tho.
Sarah Algelius solar panels and turbines were both in 2 :) they’ll reduce your bills, and with enough of them, bills will go into the negatives and you’ll be told that you earnt money instead
James: ah I wish the solar panels don’t work and why there isn’t more sustainable stuff; We don’t have any actual shipping container siding.. ☹️
*Eco Living has entered the chat*
Because they were looking forward to charging you expansion prices for solar power and wind turbines in the future 😂
Anybody else get the *best* feeling when you're watching someone be really proud at their work?
9:10 The fact that he specifies "live action".... I see you James. Truly a man of culture ;)
the irony of watching this after EA just announced the eco expansion pack,...
Ahah! Totally agree, I love both Star Wars and westerns and dang that show was good
Omg I loved the Mandalorian too! Literally the only my thing keeping me invested in the Star Wars universe right now smh.
I swear Tiny Living stuff has been the best thing to ever happen to The Sims 4 for builders. So much creative awesomeness being shared, its amazing!!
it’s interesting to watch this before Eco Lifestyle! because now, this style of house is fully doable!
I’m so excited for this build. I lived in a container home for about 3 years before I got married and I loved it!
The front container with the front door, tv room, and second bedroom would make a great store for selling flowers, produce, etc. This place just kinda gives that vibe.
I live your building videos, they are so calming 💞
I would love to see your take on a everything-house. Basically a house that has every group of items (wall lights, kitchen counters, electronics...etc) or activity for your Sim to do!
Watching this now as I only discovered you after covid. I find it hella interesting that you were talking about Eco before it was a thing! Keep up the good work!
Damn James is clapping BACK with these recent builds 👏👏👏
The glass roof in the kitchen gives the most amazing lighting. I really like that!
Wonderful build. I would live there.
Sherry Brissette hahaha even me. Or how about you check my house build videos you might also want to live there. I hope you support me im new to this youtube thing :)
Tiny houseboat and tiny penthouse would be really great!
everyone: builds tiny house
james: ok but containers
they did it James! We have functional off the grid lots and solar panels now!!!
That looks cool, not gonna lie. :D I like how you used the debug item as a guide, then gave it your own spin by having one container be sideways. And yeah, the little front garden looks adorable! The whole house is adorable, honestly -- you should be quite proud of how you put it all together. :D And yes, small homes must feel HUGE now after all those micro builds. You need to build a mansion to get back in practice. XD
How does he come up with these crazy and creative ideas? I mean I do rate them
There are no sustainable items ‘cause that for the “Ecological/Sustainable Living Game Expansion Stuff Pack” 😝
Pack includes 10 items... is $60 lol
Pack: adds little to no functionality
EA: Yeah that's worth the same as the game
Welp here we are
well... lmao
You're a mastermind. This is the greatest sims idea I've seen in awhile.
It’s 6am here and I haven’t gone to sleep, guess I won’t now
Lmaaaoooo same. Was just about to fall asleep when I got the notification
w a k e u p
its 2pm now 😳
@@beccasn8725 good after noom
James is predicting the future in this video and doesn't know it... he is literally describing eco living!!! Lol
This type of house is normally what I don't go for, but I'm so in love for what you just did there, it looks really good and I will sure use it in my game
I agree with more sutainabilty objects and gameplay options. I never understood why they never really really tapped into this eco friendly gameplay but jsut give us tiny bits and aspects of it through various packs. I like the shpping container houses you built. I am a huge sucker for glass roofs. so i like how you used them here. Makes it look very thoughtout.
Great build! The little bedside tables with the wheels are medical carts! You find them in doctors office or hospital years ago not so much now.☺️
There's a new CC that made those tubs with the cute curtains the size of a shower that functions like a tub for toddlers and pets! this lot is awesome! great build James
James: they have four little wheels, it's kind of silly
Me: *looks at my nightstand with four little wheels* ... oops
I didn't even realize that I missed your build videos until now
Imagine a rainy day here ☔️😊 or cold spring days feeling warmer in the sun ☀️
I haven’t played the sims 4 in forever and I can’t believe they added in baby yoda 😂❤️
Really glad to see more colors in your buildings!!!
this is like an industrial, rustic vibe. love this!!
SEMAJ just keeps hitting us with these FANTASTICALLY CREATIVE builds. hot damn.
Hey James, I'd love to see a (tiny) build, where there's a huuuuge room (which shouldn't be labled as a room in Sims, if you want it to be a tiny build) for like a kid, that has a puppet house which is the size of a normal sim, so the sim look like little puppets :D Kinda like Inception. A game where you play with "puppets", but they're actually puppets xD
The creativity of James builds alwys astonishes me and humbles me. This kind of video is super inspiring!
It has a very reclaimed style. Like your Sims refurbished all these pieces to be sustainable and eco friendly.
funny to watch this after eco lifestyle pack is out! James updated this lot now as we have all the bits you needed for that sweet sweet shipping container life! haha a really good build as always anyway! xx
Imagine having talent
A Disgusting Human Being hahaha thats nice. I hope you check also my sims 4 house build i think i have talent in building houses too hahaha :)
Really fun build 👍 It'd be cool if you got rid of the wall between the living rooms to make a bigger living room with a fire place, or maybe a sectional sofa.
Love it! How about a super skinny tiny home that's 64 tiles, but 4 story's tall!
Eco living do be making this easier doe
I'm hoping James creates a tiny home with a loft style bedroom build. But the last couple of tiny builds have been really creative! :-)
Covah i hoe you check out my tiny builds also i think have done a love of creative stuff there, like making a counter top with a different item, and making a table with a different objects also. No mods or cc. I hope you support me :)
And I'm over here, still trying to not build boxes, while simmers on yt builds something like that [*] rip my skills
Same. Every build I make is box shaped and barely functional.
@s Yeah same, my gardens are always a mess... And I wanted to go to school for a garden architect. Lol, I certainly don't have a talent for this
I always enjoy your videos, especially when you start rambling. 😂👌 Thanks for making me smile.
We don't have Disney+ in Sweden yet 😥
Couldn't hear any whistling sounds but then my own door was whistling so loud I could barely hear you talk 😁
Nice build, it looks really cute
Watching this video today … James was so ahead of his time. Literally predicting packs.
Rogue One was the best Star Wars we have had. I would put episode 8 up there too but thats an incredibly unpopular opinion.
Lol yes episode 8 was actually really good but no one appreciates it ☹️😂
The realistic inspiration kills me 😭😭 keep up the awesome work ! I love watching your builds and challenging myself to do these creative things. You have taught me so much!
Thanks for the great builds James. I was thinking maybe you could build a tiny home some what hidden bunker. It would be a preppier who is minimizing space under ground.
Now I see, where they got ideas for "Eco Lifestyle" Expansion Pack 😄
Thank you for making these ❤ They're giving me so much enjoyment during such a difficult time
Love the house, and garden.
Definitely have missed seeing your house builds, there was so good to watch you come with some really good idea's. 👍😁
Cannot wait to download this. This is the kind of build I needed to see 🖤🖤🖤
really, really good build james. this place is SOO nice! love it
Watching this after the eco expansion came out : your wishes came true! Can't wait to all the builds when this pack is out!
It's a sun room! Love it!!
Going back and watching this AFTER Eco Living AND Cottage Living have come out is WILD
Haha yes the Mandalorian was really good! I love this C train/container build. I’ve seen people actually turn them into homes so this kind of build in the Sims is such a cool idea to me. Thanks and have a great day James!
Sweet, loved it 👍😁
My laptop was having technical issues while I tried 3 times to record my container build on Friday. It couldn't record my voice. In all that time of trying to figure out why, I should have just shared it to gallery after I tested it.
It really does work out, a sim can get inside the container if a room is within it but I really love your version.
I still plan to get mine on gallery. It would make Flubs proud for an area in the back of the lot that I did.
You did this so soon, and I wish I had another idea off the top of my head but look forward to seeing what your next build will be.
This is so creative omg!! And it turned out so nice!
I agree! This looks SO COOL!!
i think this is my favourite build ! i really love the glass and the openess lol
Your builds are so inspiring!! 🥰💚
It's so interesting rewatching this with eco, just coming out haha
I love this build so much 😍 Definitely going to download this into my game!
Yeeees, bedtime video. Thankyou Semaj for all your consistent and hard work. Cannot wait for more Planet Zoo 💕
Brilliant video!!!!! Love this build 💝
Your buildings bring me infinite joy
