Wait you might be onto something here..

Okay that actually makes sense.

Omg thank you that finally makes sense

@@YouKnowImOnMyPeriodYah Except it doesn't, because their builds are still empty, dark, full of mistakes and in the worst furnishing style possible

@@Frenchaboo true, unlike what EA builds are. She made it packed atleast

YES!!!!!

And the foundations you can't place on the same tile next to a foundation with bins and things

Yep I haven't figured out alt placing on console so this felt like Kayla is building on console 😃

@@lauramoses2867 I’m on ps5, but you can change the placement tile with L2, (the left trigger on top of the controller, I think it’s the same on other consoles) also- you have to hit all the triggers on the top at once to activate the cheat menu, and I think you can’t alt place without move objects on? Let me know if you wanna know more and I hope this helps!

@@ains3848 hmm, not sure if that works on Xbox.

I don't even want to think about doing that! 🤣

That’s the definition of torture, considering the curved walls were buggy and jumpy even with cheats 😂

You would have to build such a big circle that it wouldn’t even matter anymore 😂 or be normal and not torture ourselves and build normally with curved walls, instead of just making circles 💀

no.

Noooo we don't want to torture her 😂

I noticed too, made me laugh so hard!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Literally purple’s opposite color too

Well green and purple are complimentary to each other

@@YouKnowImOnMyPeriodYah Green and purple look good together. My two favorite colors, especially together.

@@ville666sora barney and evangelion

It’s knew they were a thing, I just didn’t remember all the cheats 😂

Exactly 💀

It took me years to get used to it. Building with cheats in previous games always seemed to break something and was more work. Everything is fairly reliable nowadays. I don't consider alt or shift to be cheats though. They both work without doing anything special.

This is still how I build 🤣

@@Zhiperser If they work without writing anything to turn them on, they’re not cheats.

There are three primary locations for real-life trash cans, and none of them are in the middle of the room: next to the toilet, under a desk, and *in the counter under the kitchen sink!* Why can’t the kitchen bin go where it always goes in real life???

I also hate this. I usually use the apartment trash can chute if I need a conveniently placed trash can. It works for most builds. You just need a little available wall access. Also it works against stairs so she had the perfect place to use it in this build 😉

@@user-ih6fd7py8n I always forget about the trash chute tbh 😂 Maybe I’ll have to try it sometime

@@ragnkja the trash in my kitchen is in a closet because I have dogs lol

@@emilykpaige Which is, yet again, behind a closable door because you have even less of a desire to have it out on the floor than average.

also theres a toggle for it on the left above the wallpaper types

Also it's been the way to do it since Sims 1 so...we should all know this.

i did this for a solid week when i first started playing. i was so frustrated😂

I didn't know how to change floor levels without clicking the button in the corner and I vividly remember dragging a plate to the stairs so I could place it down stairs, clicking the button in the corner and dragging it again to the sink

@@kill4karma How do you do that??? I still havent figured it out yet lol

@@pointlesscommentary the page up and page down keys on your keyboard are the hot keys for changing floor level. Although I think some keyboards might not have them idk

Omg same i also DIDNT know how to rotate the camera though so I had to learn that first because I came from ts3. I found they have the settings the change the camera to ts3 controls though so I use that now.

I thought I was the only one that noticed

She rotated one tree to i just haveee to point it out or i will die

she didn't even notice that she did it either 🤣🤣

I came here to say this! Lol

she did it to the fruit bowl too

Omg me too 😄

I didn't even know I could build a porch of any kind when I first started playing lol. I should have known, considering some of the base game houses have porches.

I mean imposing limitations can make you more creative, but sometimes it just feels like she’s getting in her own way for having fun with it. Personally, I’d rather see her enjoy the build more rather than just acting stressed about arbitrary rules she made up.

Some people may not know they can build with infinite funds. I saw this idea as a imagine you’ve never played the sims- made a family- and build a house. You dont know you can/how to cheat for money or building

@@Curly_cue I uh... I think Simsie knows lmao

@@binkin7304 Obviously she knows but she said she wasn’t doing anything that was intuitive to a beginner in the game literally in this video. Not trying to argue, just tried to explain the budget. Maybe im wrong about the budget but she explained the rest.

@@Curly_cue I wasn't trying to argue either I'm sorry if that sounded mean. Tone doesn't work very well on the internet. I was just teasing bc your comment struck me as funny bc she's been playing like her whole life.

Lol

I mean, she broke the "no shift" rule at 2:32 so... 😂

Thought I was the only one who noticed

The books :D

@@cew89 actually I dont think she used shift there! both of the edges shortened

Please do not do that

As long as it's water or fruit juice, I'm in.

You would end up smashed by the end of it 😂

@@Kualinar No don't. If you drink too much water fast you can flush out all the salt in the body and die.

Read this before the video started , not of drinking age , but I have my Arizona sweet tea at the ready now lmao

no but why is it so true though?? the weird kitchen-living room conjunction, the teen bedroom wallpaper.. it's giving very much 2004

I’ll clear this up, Kayak is a Kayla’s nickname, it’s not a typo 😂

Yeah I don’t get how alt placing items is a cheat. I play on Xbox and it’s very easy to use “free placement” same control as choosing to move it on half tiles and stuff. You don’t need cheats enabled or anything to access it.

*. Kayla *

me who doesn’t know what any of this is:

@@FullHouseFan1313 kayak is a nickname

The pile of books in the teen's home got alt-rotated by habit so fast, lol.

@@p_kix wait you’re so right

@@p_kix I noticed that to! 😂

@@p_kix I noticed this too!!!

Lmao she did! The books in the teens room

Came to the comments to see if anyone else said this! I've been using shift for walls and floors since my first day playing the game, because it's right there.

I learnt that just now 😔 and I’m playing like 5 years 😢

I'm on console; the "cover whole room", "quarter tile", and "half tile/quarter tile/free place" functions are part of the normal noncheat interface. Don't know if "free place" works in the vertical plane bc I rarely use it anyway.

I've been playing Sims since basically the beginning and I just now found out about the quarter tiles thing. T_T

You mean Kayla? Sorry if I sound rude

@@Cwoissa Kayak is an inside joke, someone typed Kayla in her Twitch chat and it auto corrected to "Kayak" and it's been a joke ever since

@@Cwoissa it’s a nickname 😂😭

Ha kayak 😂 good one

@@Cwoissa no. kayak.

Me too but add money cheats

carl's guides. dude has a complete list of the cheats for sims 4. He was my go to since early sims 3

@@azadalamiq I was gonna recommend that too. I have his page with Sims 4 cheats saved on my PC

I would love to have the cheats written down on a sticker that I could stick to my laptop

Doesnt deligracy have merch with cheats on the sleeve so you can read them while wearing it?

I was today years old when I learned this.

WAIT WHAT

I've played since release. And I didn't know that.

Same, and all my houses are fine. It's cool if people enjoy using cheats to build, but it's not necessary. I feel like people who do just get so used to it that they don't know how to act without the cheats.

@@ville666sora She couldn't place a very slim plant in the living room, she couldn't place the kitchen bin in a reasonable place. Those are just the first things that came to mind. How is that "fine"?

Wow I cannot imagine not using moveobjects!

But she enjoys making these kinds of builds so thats whats important also its kinda her expertise at this point

@@unixerse297 she always gets so stressed tho :(

HEEJIN

@@s6scha That's content though. A video where she just builds and is all happy about everything and everything perfectly works out how she envisions things would be boring. The reason sim builders do build challenges in the first place is simply for content (and I am not calling it out, it's just natural and makes sense)

It’s apart of the challenge lol

I don’t use any other camera lol

What other camera is there?

@@wyvern713 there's the default Sims 4 camera, and then Sims 3 camera, you can change this in the settings or in the top right corner in live/build mode

@@tina41093 Oh right. I have no idea what the Sims 3 camera looks like, so I didn't even realize that that's what she was using. How is it different?

The sims 3 camera is genuinely better imo, it's not about getting used to the sims 4 camera, the sims 3 camera just makes more sense

And it’s a budget challenge! Imaging having only 15/20k and no base game!!

me and my cc furniture army: *heh, u call that a challenge?*

@@Itsetanaj 😂😂 I would love cc but I play on PS so its not choice 😢

yes please i am sick of those base game items in every video

@@lildaisyheart me too

Schnuck and Kate Emerald got some great building tips.

you can build with *MODS*?!

@@Itsetanaj better build buy, TOOL, and cc

@@tallulahbrown5864 yesss i don't use cc but better build buy and tool are a MUST

Woah I follow you on Twitter 😂

@@camelliahyacinth5926 twitter? that's my evil twin

The sims is the worst, i want to move to pc but i have like 16 packs and they don’t transfer and i dont want to waste my money so

I use them on console all the time

I still can’t figure out how to resize objects. Pc players are so lucky tbh, console is pretty finicky

@@moraelity to resize your hold lt and rt or l2 and r2 and the same time and press the d pad one press on the right makes it large the left makes it smaller

You have to hold down the buttons and then just press the d pad if you still need help you can goggle how to resize objects in the sims 4 on console

Alt placing is necessary but move objects is something I can do without-

I've built all my houses without both of those and I do fine lol.

F5 is necessary, for the quarter tile placement, with that, it's not so bad

I can't alt place unless move objects is on lol?

if it's in game naturally, it's not a cheat

That's not that hard. I always do that. The only difference is you cant free rotate items.

You have these controls on console. First to "alt place" press the upper left bumper, this will tell you in small print "Full", "Half" or "free" placment. Free placement takes the object off grid. To size up or down an object pick up and hold said object, then press and hold both L and R upper bumpers and use the directional pad up or down to resize. To use all the tile options use the directional pad left or right to rotate the floor tiles direction and or chose quarter (the Triangle shaped) floor tile option. For more controller uses press down on your left joycon to open the menu. Do this in both live mode and build mode as each has thier own control functions. These function require no cheat codes but if you wish to use cheat codes, open the cheat bar by pressing all 4 bumpers. This will give you notice that using any cheat will negate your ability to earn any future gaming achievements/trophies. So if you are going for those then Don't open the cheat bar. Once your bar is open (in the upper left screen) enter the cheat you wish to is, bb.moveojects and such. Hope this helped!

@@tabytastick omg tysm for all the controls, I knew a lot of them, but my point was that the controls on PC are completely different than the ones on consol and there's no reason for me to listen to Kayak's tutorials 😅 thank you for telling me these controls though, they actually helped 😁😁

it’s actually common for simsie to have clips back to back of her saying the same or similar things in her videos (presumably one clip is supposed to be edited out). once you notice it, it’s really hard to ignore. i don’t know how her editors make the same mistake repeatedly and it doesn’t get picked up…

@@noodlerdoodler i read somewhere that it doesn't happen by accident but is an inside joke between kayla and her editor Dan

For Euro builds I go to Jessicapie and Aveline. Aveline does Scandinavian and Jessicapie does English style builds. Lilsimsie only does starter blue suburbans.

@@thejompi it’s legitimately the same every time 😟

@@thejompi I would just love to see what she would make tho. Thank you for the tips 🙏🏻

@@dear_totheheart me too, wish she dropped the base game for a sec they all looked the same

that's a great idea, then later another one with anime too.

HOW? I am on PS aswell and I would Love to edit only one side on the roof eve, could you tell me how please?

@@tabytastick the square button! It’s a little bit fidgety but if you click on the Eve overhang button and then hold down square as you move it it should work!

@@sphiiaz I'm going to try. Thank you So much, this changes Everything! Thank you 😊

@@tabytastick of course! I’m so glad I was able to help because I know what it feels like to not know what to do 😅😂

however I do use money cheats because I think if u build something that is kinda a must have and can be easily figured out
