I love apartments in the sims, like it feels realistic to me, but one thing that I hate is that the sims never added the apartment lot type to the basegame, or to city living, so if they ever do a refresh, that would be a great place to start.

@cosmic7336 Жыл бұрын

but the whole point of city living is apartments. it's as if you were asking for pets to be put into the base game, absolutely reasonable yet not how the sims works

@maddy2860 Жыл бұрын

What a remarkable point

@yuhhbiscuit Жыл бұрын

@@cosmic7336 I see your point, but it feels like now that the pack has been out for so long, the more noticeable it is, like cause you would think a pack that’s supposed to be about living in the city you would think that they would add the lot type so you can make your own, not to mention that with My Wedding Stories, they added the wedding venue lot type, but weddings were already in the game, so I guess it’s not that valid.

fun fact!! You can actually remove the "little quirks" the apartments have by not paying your rent so the sent someone over to swush all your furniture away. BUT if the lot is completely empty they will go for these qirks and you'll get rid of them permanently. Happened to me by accident but I think it's pretty useful when you like the apartment but not the things that come with it

When I discovered that get famous rug I immediately loved it because I’ve always over looked it because of the default swatch, but it’s actually amazing! It’s kind of the best rug in the game because of its design- not only the patterns but the style of rug changes and you piece it together. They should make more rugs like that.

Lol. I've played Sims since the very beginning, off and on through the years (i'm almost 48). The sims actually piqued my interest in 3D characters in general. I finally found a program called Poser and, for many MANY years, happily "played" with my virtual dolls. In fact, that's what that particular community (3D Artists) calls the base figures that we then customise, pose, render, bring into postwork & create beautiful art with. That said, I never once thought to apply the term to the Sims, although it is accurate! As soon as Kayla said it, a light bulb went off in my head. Just wait til my partner hears he's been playing with Virtual Dolls! Knowing him, he'll just laugh and load his game up!

I made a doll apartment from three cube shaped cubbies in one of those modular shelf things you're supposed to put canvas-covered boxes in, once. The furniture was made of building blocks and other things I found around the house, and since the bottom cube was right near the floor I used it as a garage for the doll's car, which I'd made from Tinkertoys.

When it comes to how the Sims built and decorated houses and apartments, most of it is hideous and I always redecorate. I've never tried bulldozing an apartment, except the penthouse because that's easy to place. They need to allow more room to edit apartments like being able to change the doors. One time I had a bad glitch in a game where my Sims apartment door completely disappeared and of course you can't put one in so the only way my Sims could leave was for me to teleport them and I ended up moving them out. They need to fix it where you can replace apartment doors, if for no other reason than a door disappearing. lol. I love the way you decorate places in your game.

i was a big lps kid too! i did have a big doll house though, but because it was so big my lpses didn't fit properly so i would use boxes and steak knives to build my own dollhouses for them. my grandparents used to go to a hardware store like every weekend, so i would go there with them and just stand in the colour swatch section and pick out all the "wallpapers" and flooring i wanted until they came and picked me back up to leave. it was a great time.

Many apartments in my city are “alcoves”. They have the layout of a one bedroom but get away with not having a window in the bedroom because the bedroom walls have a gap between the ceiling and the wall and the door is a barn door.
