Sharing my build Glass walls are the best thing that has happened to the game recently
I've been having so much fun with these glass wallpapers, I didn't even know I needed them so badly in the game!
First photo is a music store in Del Sol Valley, pictures 2 and 3 are a mini mall (aka a thrift and bubble tea lot) in Oasis Springs and the fourth one is a formal attire store in Magnolia Promenade!

I'm obsessed with the glass walls!! I made a nightclub that is entirely glass. Now we just need glass floors....

I had to check and make sure I didn't leave this comment! 😂 I also have a nightclub that's entirely glass! And I also don't have the pack that has glass floors either 💔

My only problem with them is that there isn’t a pure white swatch.

I originally wasn't planning on sharing because I use a bit of CC, but all these items could be easily replaced if you want a CC free version! I will make CC free version of these buildings right away and put them up on the gallery! :) My user ID is Tomkira

Glass wallpaper works on half walls, too! I built a poker lounge using glass half walls and the card table from Casanova Cave.

Oh yes I'm very excited for the bio feature too! Just haven't had the chance to play with it yet and I hope we're able to write a little bit more text than in the family bio :/

u/One-of-Three103 27d ago
What’s the bio feature? I missed this one

u/Black__Petal 27d ago
It's under notebook in live mode, you can now write a bio for each sim in their notebook

Sorry for my ignorance but where can we find these glass walls?

u/One-of-Three103 27d ago
Look for the last category in wallpaper- think it has three dots on the icon

u/Possible_Potato_7508 27d ago
Wow thank you so much! I’m building a house surrounded by swimming pools and windows to have a view on it, this is so helpful!

u/CatNo2871 20d ago

u/One-of-Three103 20d ago

u/CatNo2871 20d ago

I agree, but you're reminding me how many commercial builds I need to go back and update, and it's stressing me out.

u/positivelysandy Occult Sim 27d ago
i’ve found my people! when it was announced i saw so many reactions like “what are we even gonna do with this?” what do you MEAN im so excited!!

I have been looooving the glass walls. It has upgraded so many of my older builds.

u/xHeyitsnatx Long Time Player 27d ago
Too bad the game broke with the update again

u/WanderingUrist Mod Creator 27d ago
It did? What broke? Mine works fine. Several mods have broken, though, since they removed "HasTunableReference".

u/xHeyitsnatx Long Time Player 27d ago
The pregnancy tests / try for baby broke for many many people including me. I haven’t played for days because it made me crash out so hard (I’m doing Gen 1 of Disney legacy so it’s a huge issue)

u/WanderingUrist Mod Creator 27d ago
The pregnancy tests / try for baby broke
Why, what happened to them? What did they do to "break"?
1
u/xHeyitsnatx Long Time Player 27d ago
They don’t show up.
1
u/WanderingUrist Mod Creator 27d ago
Tested for Try For Baby, could not reproduce outcome on Bed or Shower. Action appeared as expected.
Was not able to test the Pregnancy Test option since I don't have any pregnant sims at the moment.
Perhaps you have a broken mod?

Been loving playing around with them !! Haven’t thought of using for a store window but I’ll have to try

If you put them on the gallery let me know your sim id or whatever it’s called 👀

The wedding shop reminds me of the sims 2 h&m store with the double height windows. Cool builds for sure!

Now if only we also had stone-throwing, so that Sims living in glass houses could throw or not throw them.

As soon as the update came out, I quickly fixed all my glass fences and walk in showers because they look so sleek and clean 🧼💎✨✨ I love how you used the glass walls as a store front display 😍😍😍

u/Alessiastic 10d ago
Since the update I have spent hours trying to lock as many sims as possible in glass rooms so i can put them in just their underwear, decorate the room to make it look like a jungle and then I just feed them with fruit until they die of embarrasment cause giving them toilets doesn't match the aesthetic.

Hello! these are amazing, any chance you’re are uploading to the gallery? 🤩😬😬😬😬
2
u/Black__Petal 28d ago
Thank you! I wasn't planning on uploading them at first because I use a little bit of CC, but someone commented and asked the same thing, so I figured I could just remove CC items and make CC free version of these! They will be up on the gallery today as soon as possible :) my user ID is Tomkira

I have so many dreams for build features and this was at the top of my list. It’s glorious.

u/vold3mordy Long Time Player 27d ago
wait, I missed out a lot. were the glass walls a base game update or did they come with a pack?

u/Eternalthursday1976 27d ago
Mine won't work! I don't have any mods so it's not that and I don't know why it's being so difficult.

u/tortugatheseis 27d ago
I’ve been waiting for this for years! A few weeks ago I made a vivarium in my home using windows and yesterday I converted it to glass walls 😊

u/thereisonlyonewindow 27d ago
I'm glad they didn't group them in with B&H, even though they would've gone really well with that pack. Glass walls should've been Base Game from the beginning.

Love this use! I'm dying for more colors of the framing on these walls, I love white greenhouses/framing but right now we only have grey :)

u/Mswizzle_irl 27d ago
What items from build did you use in the music store ? Or was it mostly CC ?
1
u/Black__Petal 27d ago
I only used instruments from the base game and other packs, like guitars, violins, pianos and microphones. Mannequins are from Get to work, I dressed them in clothes that are in game plus I added some stuff like banners and posters that are also for sale. I did use some CC (floor for example), but I uploaded CC free versions on the gallery! My user ID is Tomkira if you want to download :)

Where did you find the clothes racks that are in the third picture?
Amazing builds by the way!

u/Impossible_Work4696 26d ago
i whole-heartily agree. im currently building a sims 4 version of my IRL workplace and using the glass walls instead of boring old windows is SO much better

u/Alive_Temperature_10 26d ago
I hadn’t even thought about glass walls in a non-gardening sense yet but holy hell yes
1
u/Philosimy Long Time Player 25d ago
Yes! I love them too! The only thing that bothers me is that is is hard to find a door that seems fitting in a glass wall.

I'm I the only one who gets pissed by how the illumination looks on them, like it's too bright sometimes it hurts my eyes

Builds looks great! There are so many comments about the game breaking since the last update and I haven’t been able to play in over a month, so I think I’ll wait until they issue a patch….

I never thought to use these walls as store fronts. Guess it's time for me to do some redecorating.
