Are your apartments actually in-game apartments or residential? Loving the new love nest and other apartments like the attic apartment that the florist who’s into warren lives in. I would love to make larger custom apartments but am wondering how you do it? Are the surrounding areas dummy buildings? I need to know your building secrets 😆

hi and thank you! sorry for super late answer! sadly, it's just residentials :( not letting us make our own apartment buildings in TS4 is one (of many) shitty moves they have made and i was SO disappointed when i realized that sooo, all my apartments are fake/dummies *waa waa waa waaa* thank you for the ask! :)

Under the cut!

@serabiet​ thank you! (and thanks again for the textures!)

@2spooky4blue​ thanks! Do it! :D

@starrsim​ aw, thank you for the kind words! I’m doing it for fun! (sometimes it’s painful, but we can ignore that part XD)

@claudettesims​ 2 turned out exactly how I wanted it to be, so I’m happy with it! Now I just need to finish them lol

@mdpthatsme​

@veninorchid​ thank you! Eh, I mean that’s what sims 4 creators do, right? XD

@mikexx2​ thank you lovely VP! Hmmm yeah, I think some kind of casual-y heels would look nice on it!

@isatistinctoria I can safely say, this is not the happiest day of his life XD

Would you mind sharing more pics of the vacation rental or maybe even a tour? I love looking at all the little details you put into your lots. I don’t think I could ever download them as I’d spend the whole time in camera view just “walking” around and saying “oooo” “ahhh” “look at that color combination”

Hi @starrsim Thank you so much for your kind words, they're greatly appreciated! I'm so happy you like it 🥰 Sure, I can take some pics for you. I usually try to work the house tours into the story, but I don't see it happening this go around without feeling forced. So I'll get them up as soon as I can!

How many sim days do you play for each rotation?

I play each house for 1 season, so that’s 5 simdays, I think?

Started adding traits to my game-has anyone else used these? Pros and cons? Favorite part?

Yes...I’m still rebuilding 😂 due to quarantine homeschool and moving game is on the back burner but I can’t wait to share new pics with you

How is this even an option? Is this a mod?

I don’t know, I reckon it must be a mod, but I’m not sure which one can be causing it. Looks harmless enough though (?)

Perhaps following the older of the two partners? Or some sort of class system? Good luck with playing-maybe when you play it out you’ll experiment with some different ways

Hi Starr, and thanks for the suggestions! Given the Nuidya reverence for elders, following the older sim’s line makes a lot of sense, and status might come into it in the case of the mi-Avira succession. The input is really appreciated :)

Here are a few other ideas I’m kicking around: - The sim who actually gives birth is the one that counts for the kid’s clan identity - Ditch clan names altogether and use combinations of the parents’ first names instead - Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock: each of my five clans takes precedence over two others when it comes to baby names - Roll a die for which name the kids take (any excuse for rolling dice!) - Have the parents alternate: first baby gets parent 1′s name, second gets parent 2′s, third parent 1′s, and so on

Basically, I’ll try a few methods and see what sticks. Thanks again Starr <3
