"I stole my GF's custom content" is a hilarious title. Would love to see you make a video like that. Also I don't usually enjoy speedbuilds, because having the commentary afterwards feels "disjointed" to me, but because you don't speed-up the build so dramatically, it's *much* more enjoyable!
Love the video idea for a CC build. I totally understand why you choose not to build with it, but as someone who plays with CC it would be really cool to see you build with it once and I while!!
for the stairway to function, you could've put a 8-step-high one-tile platform on the corner and lead some wally stairs up to it, and from the platform to the upstairs another set without walls, james. also, welcome back, we missed you.
There's something relaxing about just building and watching/listening to something. For me it's catching up on critical role and building. Glad you're back and this build is awesome! 😄
Just get some easy plants! Zizi’s and snake plants need almost no water and are super easy with light. I have 70+ houseplants at this point and every surface is covered in plants 😂 Edit: a string of pearls is also very easy to take care of and it grows fast! As do tradescantias
I've literally built whole mansions before that are 1 bed 😂 I usually just end up going crazy with like "private library" "home gym" "photography studio" and then by the time I get to actually doing a bedroom I'm like "aw fuck, well hopefully they don't want kids here 😂
I am LOVING this build, I love how you challenged yourself when it came to the inside. All the platforms and the arch way through the stairs are great and I would love to see more builds where you challenge yourself if you would want to make em.
As a console player, it is very much appreciated that you try to stay away from custom content & think about your audience! This does not mean you are never allowed to enjoy all the amazing content these creators make! Also really missed watching your videos! Welcome back☺️❤️
Always my favorite builder in this game. You always try to make it realistic and functional. Plus, it is always complete. I won't mind only building videos!
If you place arches under stairs/on stair walls - make sure to do it with Move objects off! I think the problem was that you had the arch slid over/alt placed - you could see the arch corner on the left just slightly intersecting the stair treads - it won’t work if it intersects the stair treads, it has to be completely on wall. I actually had a childhood friend who had that stair set up in their real house, arches under both sides of stairs and a built in shelf under the lower side of the stairs. I always thought it was really cool.
The bedrooms with the white walls, grey carpet and the black windows is so Aussie townhouse. I’m sitting in my Melbourne apartment and it has that exact combo
Tips from a plant mom: - pick one day a week to take care of all your plants. Feel the earth before watering, if it's still wet from last week, skip a week! - put your plants in pots with drainage holes, when watering water all the way through to stimulate the roots. Plants who need less water just need it less frequently, not less at once - put them close to windows, there are very few plants who don't enjoy sun. It's just a sales tactic to say they like medium light ;) - when you decide to report, try to do it in early spring so they have the whole growing season te recover! - don't stress if you loose a couple, we are all human and trying to figure it out 💛
Plant pro tips: don’t water nearly as much as you think you should. Many plants do better to be dry than overly wet. Get a moisture meter to check if it’s still wet. Don’t move the plant to a bigger pot. It can stay in whatever you bought it in till the roots grow out of the drainage holes.
I have def put arches underneath stairs, and they always work. But I don't think I've done it with L-shaped stairs, maybe just straight ones. That did look really cool how you had it, too bad it wouldn't route. There is always the possibility of a glitch in this game. I like the elevated kitchen, too. Very interesting and innovative floor plan and overall design, it is.
I appreciate that you keep in mind that we all might not be able to have access to custom content!!! That being said Sims teams could learn everything from custom content creators. Custom content creators blow the sims team out of the water every time…….!!!!!!!
Hey James have you ever tried splitting L shaped stairs up. You put a single square of platform up to a certain height and then put stairs going up to the platform which can have walls and then you put another set of stairs from the platform up to the second level without the walls giving you a good balance. The trick is just finding the right height for the platform where both stairs can properly have a landing on the platform.
I REALLY appreciate the fact you don't use CC in your regular builds but man I'd LOVE to see a video where you steal the CC and make an awesome build haha
I love watching you build with items I forgot I had! I know Deligracy uses custom content to show it off and its all awesome but your talent (and her's) to build without it is absolutely wonderful. I always download your builds.
I love the archway under the stairs! That looks so cool! And hey, I say if you want CC, get CC. That’s a very nice sentiment but just an FYI, when I download your houses most of it disappears anyways since I only have a handful of packs so I go and replace the items anyways 🤷🏼♀️ Moral of the story, do what makes you happy 🥰
Use the CC! Just do us all a favor and list what you use in your gallery description/speed build video description. I've downloaded builds from Deligracy before and had everything load and place properly, because I already had the CC in my mods folder. Your builds are already top tier, I can't imagine what you'd do without the limitations of only Sims content in your game.
I'm terrible with plants. They just sit there. At least my cats tell me when they are hungry, need water, want to play, etc. I thought he forgot the smoke detector but then he pointed it out. lol Poor yarn ball got left out, replaced by a plant. House turned out cute though.
The first :50 seconds in already enjoying the video 🤣 thanks James for all the amazing and entertaining videos! Loved you since the Bread shop with Gluon and still loving ya now! ❤️
Nice build! And congrats on remembering all the little bits and bobs. XD The carport looks particularly nice -- though I'm sorry your wall under the stairs didn't work. Ah well. . .and good to know about platforms and stairs glitching out. I shall remember that for my own future building projects.
I know a lot of Sims TH-camrs don't use cc in builds to make it easier to download, but personally I'd rather have to download free cc than buy a ton of dlc
@@sarasomething236 they're both limiting in different ways. custom content is limiting to console players and packs are limiting to those who cannot afford them. custom content is my preferred option
@@mickeylev6494 totally agree. I think it’s reasonable to put out both types of vids. Most builds I download from the gallery are missing items because I don’t have all the packs, which I don’t mind. But it’s nice when it’s cc that I can just download.
For the stairs issue you can use a platform. Raise it up to the landing height - then you can have a stair up to that height. Place another stair from the platform to level two and remove the walls from under that stair only.
So happy that you are back and this build is very cool! Totally a guys pad! I’d love to see you do a cc build…once you go cc you never come back you know…lol 😃😃. Much love to you and Deli and Happy Holidays 🎄❤️🎄
Honestly, I've wondered for ages why James hasn't just... built a house in Deli's game just to try out building with cc. I'm definitely looking forward to that, though, it sounds like a lot of fun!
when i have this kind of space left under the stairs i either put there a nice big plant or pet stuff like a bed, or a scratching post, or the toy box, they usually can use it. with as much space as you have there the big bed might not work but the small one should without a problem.
the "stolen CC build" Sounds good. i realized that a while ago that she uses it a lot and u don't. I like both but your builds are more lively bc her CC is usually very mild and calm looking
no way! At the beggining of the video I was thinking of the idea of you building with deli’s CC and was gonna comment it and then you said it 🤯 It was like you read my mind lmao
Okay but why am I giggling so hard at the idea of James sneaking around to Mission Impossible music to get Deli's CC folder? 😂😂
Lmao now I want that as the intro to the video!
Won’t lie, VERY into this shell. Inspo AF. Also, notes: I usually use the dirt floor, in Misc, under plants on platform planters instead of grass.
Yeah, I grabbed a build from online and they did the same thing. Didn’t think to do that before myself 😆
@@TheUnplannedLove I also do it for structured landscaping when I’m insanely lazy
I don’t see what is the dirt floor in misc, is it from a pack?
@@flw1522 it should be basegame, outdoor sort (pic: grass/flowers).
I also put that dirt on the floor of my window well platforms (darker swatch)
"I stole my GF's custom content" is a hilarious title. Would love to see you make a video like that.
Also I don't usually enjoy speedbuilds, because having the commentary afterwards feels "disjointed" to me, but because you don't speed-up the build so dramatically, it's *much* more enjoyable!
Lol partially green screened James being like "well fuck it" is such a mood 😂
you have no idea how much i missed your vids! I'm glad you're back and feeling better!
Same, just the thing that has been missing from my week
Totally looking forward to your build with the current cc!
Samee
Yess!!

I wanted to write the same thing!

There's something relaxing about just building and watching/listening to something. For me it's catching up on critical role and building. Glad you're back and this build is awesome! 😄
hello fellow critter
Just get some easy plants! Zizi’s and snake plants need almost no water and are super easy with light. I have 70+ houseplants at this point and every surface is covered in plants 😂
Edit: a string of pearls is also very easy to take care of and it grows fast! As do tradescantias
Name suggestion for a concrete house with lots of plants: Concrete jungle!
The Industrial couch and chair is my favorite in the whole game!
Not all "bigger" houses are family homes. Some just want bigger kitchens and living rooms to entertain or just to have more space. Just a thought 😊
Yeah, but, in the sims? Do people REALLY have sims over that much?
@@EdwardoLover Occasionally I'll have a sim who is really into throwing parties. But usually...nope, get off my lawn.
@@EdwardoLover we're all introverted hermits. That's why we're playing the sims instead of socializing 😂
I've literally built whole mansions before that are 1 bed 😂 I usually just end up going crazy with like "private library" "home gym" "photography studio" and then by the time I get to actually doing a bedroom I'm like "aw fuck, well hopefully they don't want kids here 😂
I love building massive mansions with only 1-2 bedrooms. Maybe it's because I don't want kids myself that I don't automatically calculate them in haha
James making a speedbuild with custom content it’s such a dream come true!!! your style would match perfectly with deli’s cc!!! can’t wait to see it
The ball of Yarn was supposed to be placed where you put that plant.
DON’T LOOK AT THE YARN!
I still do the yarn on every half wall and shelf because of James. Makes me giggle every time 😂
I do it too when I put in half walls
I am LOVING this build, I love how you challenged yourself when it came to the inside. All the platforms and the arch way through the stairs are great and I would love to see more builds where you challenge yourself if you would want to make em.
As a console player, it is very much appreciated that you try to stay away from custom content & think about your audience! This does not mean you are never allowed to enjoy all the amazing content these creators make! Also really missed watching your videos! Welcome back☺️❤️
Steal Deli’s CC, BUT I would also LOVE for you to collaborate on a CC build at some point. Glad you’re back James! We’ve missed you!!

I noticed James inspires me to play but when he wasn't uploading I stopped playing lol now I feel like playing again
James doing a CC build… I am living for it
I'm so happy you're back! I hope that you enjoyed your break ❤
I was fully expecting James to run with the gag that only half his green screen was down for the whole video.
I love how you said that'll do and you just went for it after that, it actually looked great!

Nice house James. I think I'll add it to my game.
I really like the way you did the carport and fencing/landscaping! Nice wealthy family home.
I missed your videos. Love the stairs and all the structure of this house. Always amazed with your elegance and creativity building.
Glad you are back, also that position of the hand towel in the guest bathroom triggered me so much 🙃
I was looking for this comment
Welcome back! Gorgeous build. Keen to add it to my game.
I love watching you build with items I forgot I had! I know Deligracy uses custom content to show it off and its all awesome but your talent (and her's) to build without it is absolutely wonderful. I always download your builds.
I was so excited to get this notification! Glad you're back !
so pleased that you're back! Love the way the kitchen looks from the outside with that overhanging roof
heck yeah to custom content, those guys are doing a fantastic job!
James build a carport. Cars coming to Sims 4 confirmed!
Happy to see you back! Loved your reno to the farm but I would love to see more of the every lot challenge too.
You could also do a video like switching save files/games with deli, so you get to experience how she plays the game.
omg James you have no idea how much you lighten up my mood, sometimes it's all I need when I'm having a bad day
I love this build! Very inspired! --Missed ya!
You got the ceiling mounted green screen! YAY!
I love the archway under the stairs! That looks so cool! And hey, I say if you want CC, get CC.

Yes! I am looking forward to a CC build!
You're such a talented builder. Very inspiring. Welcome back :-)

You e really gotten great with colors and decorations, the build is beautiful, loved the video, glad you’re back. ☺️👍🏼💙
Congrats on the ceiling mounted green screen!!
Yaaay we missed your videos :)
Also YES for CC builds! Maybe a mini CC series, I'm sure people would love that.
I really love the warm feeling in the kitchen, my new favourite! Elegant home!
The first :50 seconds in already enjoying the video 🤣 thanks James for all the amazing and entertaining videos! Loved you since the Bread shop with Gluon and still loving ya now! ❤️

In my opinion, using custom content is no worse than using a bunch of packs. I'd love to see you use some!
Exactly! Especially since cc is free and all the packs cost lots of $$$$$

Watching you build always motivates me to do my best building mine although I get jealous most of the time 😅
The building looks great ( from the thumbmail)
Great build. Glad you are back to recording.

awesome builds! this has the vibe of that house from parasite movie
Honestly, I've wondered for ages why James hasn't just... built a house in Deli's game just to try out building with cc. I'm definitely looking forward to that, though, it sounds like a lot of fun!

More builds please! Love your build videos!
Hi James, I really like how this house turned out. I will use this in my game play. Thanks so much!
YES YES please do a CC build it would look great.
I love when builds have platforms instead of foundations ☺☺
Build challenge, build a house where every room is themed and based around a personality trait.
The mine saucer lights were the best thing ever…..BEST lighting
Love this build ! Love the exterior
When you talked about the plants irl that was how I feel exactly....
I just love your sense of humor 😂
Spiral staircases need to come back. I miss those
Fun build. It’s a cool design. I wish we could do more with the stairs. The hallway under the stairs was awesome
Yasss bet it's gonna be awesome!! 😍😭
This house gives me Sims 2 Pleasantview modern houses. I LOVE IT
no way! At the beggining of the video I was thinking of the idea of you building with deli’s CC and was gonna comment it and then you said it 🤯 It was like you read my mind lmao
So glad you're posting again!
I love this house! Can’t wait till I have some time to play so I can add it to my game!
I'm here for James showing off his new green screen every episode 🙌🏿
Same!
So excited for ur new house build video!!!
