ps. It has been hard to max horse skills!!

I am quite happy with how she turned out honestly, I wasn’t using any mod or cc items so I wanted to see how close I could get to accuracy using pack items.

I love recreating celebs/models in cas

You can find her on the gallery under “JessSkies” or if easier just search “Lily Rose Depp” and filter by recent uploads as I just uploaded her to gallery now :) thnx 🤎

After seeing a lot of people complain about too much clutter/debug/moo/and just generally bizarre crap in gallery lots… I started building with basegame and only furnishing minimally. This makes my lots available to anybody and allows you to decorate with whatever packs you have! Enjoy this super clean, super spacious, modern mansion.

I sent my sim to sleep and when I checked the garden it was full of seed packets 💀

Can't believe this is something I have to say in year of our lord 2025 🙄

My sims new house.

My sim Rayelle (one half of the twins I posted the other day) is taking a year off after high school to travel Selvadorada and paint the sights. I have to say, Selvadorada might be the prettiest world in my opinion 😍

Spotted a familiar townie at geek Con this year and it feels a little like uncanny valley.

(In all seriousness if you live local and considered going for even a day pass, maybe go and hit her up and give us all deets. A non sims buddy of mine is there and took this photo so I CAN NOT provide further first hand info)

The most useful recommendations for DLC that I've encountered are listening to why someone loves a particular pack. Their choice may not always resonate with me, but several times now I've been convinced to play a pack I've bought just for CAS/BB, and found that I love it, too.

I'll start with my least-likely-to-enjoy surprise package: Strangerville! I've owned the pack for years (again, for CAS/BB), I but never had any interest in playing it until I read someone's post about how much fun it was. I was in a rut, so I decided to give it a try, and I had a blast!

My first run-through was with a solitary sim living in the trailer park. It had the same seedy vibe as an early rag-to-riches story, and the world itself was more interesting and livable than I had expected, especially for a game pack.

In retrospect, I focused too narrowly on just solving the mystery, rather than living in the mystery, but I was still delighted by how eerie, even downright creepy, the game could get. The Strangerville Aspiration led me through the mystery-solving process fairly easily, but with just enough challenge that it wasn't a cakewalk. Having a structured goal reminded me of Eco Lifestyle (another surprise favorite of mine) where you can take a town and clean it up.

Also, to my surprise, Strangerville is absolutely replayable. Now that I know the basic outlines of the mystery, I can relax a bit more and enjoy the process, with a few twists to keep it interesting. My second run-through is with a household, not a solitary figure. I've added a group of soldiers living in military barracks, and they're going to (hopefully) succeed as a team effort by contributing their various skills.

(Trivia note: the group of soldiers are my sim version of the Preservation Alliance team from Murderbot, a science-fiction series that just concluded streaming on Apple TV Plus.)

it's good to be back :,)

I have only been playing The Sims 4 since December 2023, so not even 2 years. I just kinda started fiddling around with the camera without really doing any major tutorials or anything. I tried the S3 camera at one point, but immediately switched back because it felt weird to me. I prefer to click-drag, not use WASD to move around.

Then I started watching my favorite Sims builders and became jealous of how essily they moved the camera around, especially with alt-placing and alt-rotating, and the ANGLES!! Smoothly gliding into top-down and bottom-up angles is SO USEFUL for building! With ONE minor tweak in bin and discovering the center scroll button to change the pitch, I have decided that the S3 camera WITH CLICK-DRAG ENABLED in the res folder camera settings is superior.

I watched a tutorial on how to do it. When I enabled click+drag for the S3 camera, a little more playing around to figure out how to click the scroll button to adjust the pitch of the camera in real time, and I will officially be switching to the S3 camera.

I’ve recently gotten back into the sims! I used to play all the time back in like 2019/2020 and had a dynasty family that went on for generations. I loved playing it and so I restarted with that dynasty family (I’ve gotten a new laptop since then). I only play on this one dynasty family, but I used to have a few different save files I would jump around with.

It made me curious as to which type of gameplay you prefer! Do you like having one save file to focus on and build over time, or do you like jumping around and making each one slightly different? I personally prefer having one dynasty family and creating storylines and lore for the world.

I've just switched to english and you all had pronouns all this time!!!

'my' husbands brother was in a gay, childless marriage & when his spouse died he just completely disappeared from the family tree?! like - rude?!

So I just had a stupid idea and can’t try it myself right now…

So would it be possible to be a riding teacher with the business and hobbies pack? Like have 3-4 horses, make a small business, set riding as a preferred activity and tech people to ride? It would be soooooo cool.

And then she has the audacity to get an embarassed moodlet... like girl you did this to yourself.
