Two of my favorite creators are SimLicy and RoxxySims. SimLicy does a mix of builds including empty starters/fixer uppers, and even has her own save file which is a couple years behind, but still beautiful. Roxxy's builds are so creative and she does a lot of community lots and fun occult builds, like redoing all of Moonwood Mill. So thankful for these talented contributors doing us all building-challenged players a favor, lol. 💚
@SyntheticGoth Omg yes! There's always a story behind her builds that makes it even better. And she does a perfect way of making the house feel more lived it and not just cluttered. It's the right amount of clutter.
I just got Twilight Bella Swan’s house from Roxxysims, and then a lighthouse from her . I sometimes just watch her RU-vid videos where she creates all those , so yeah
Thank you for showcasing these builders! Devon Bumpkin actually built the EA lot Gnome's Arms for the Cottage Living Expansion and then renovated it for his channel...I believe. I live in the US but my favorite simmers are in the UK
11:43 if you decide to make a part 2, I'd like to recommend SakuraLeon. From what I've seen, they made linited pac build and base game renovation. Not only that but she also make limited pack household.
I hope there IS a part 2. I swear, sahmandbean is a tiny channel, but she has so many shells on the gallery with minimum packs. I really feel like she deserves way more recognition. I dont like TOO much clutter either. I remember I downloaded someone's home and they had sooooo much clutter that I could not play the lot because the clutter was blocking the essentials. Great video Satch!
@@sahm_and_bean I commented on his poll before this video as well! You have honestly taught me more than you know about building! Especially roofs!!! 😄
A builder I'd strongly reccommend is MalinDesigns. Her builds are always beautiful, and she has base game only builds that honestly don't look like they were done with only the base game, they're that beautiful.
Satch I don’t know how you do it but I decide to build a save file, you make a video on it. I want to download some new cc, you’ve just made a video on it. Now I want to do interior design with some sims houses, and you have a helpful video on it. You’re my favourite sims RU-vidr by far man, proper funny, down to earth, english (cause we’re the best) and so consistent in your uploads. Thanks, I love your videos and you deserve way more recognition !!
I'm so happy there was at least 2 new creators I could follow 😂 I already follow two because they are very popular. So thank you for doing a video like this and I'd love to see more like this!
the only thing im good at is adding wallpapers and floors, LOL, last year I added a porch with a stair to my house and thats the biggest build I could ever achieve!!!!, like literally, and the other day I tried making a smaller "porch" for the pool, next to the big porch, but everyitme I try to unite it with the big porch, it becomes the same height as the big porch, I literally cant do it, I watched tutorials for months, I just cant
I unfollowed people when I realized that meant getting my news feed spammed with every single like they do. But my favorite go-to builder is Prawnt. They haven't made anything in around 2 years, but they have a big library that stays away from traditional, all furnished, and almost all base game or limited. It's super hard to tell that 20 packs and kits aren't used. Plus they're mostly smaller homes, which is my preference.
I love SatiSim's because a lot of their builds feel like they are bringing fantasy book illustrations to The Sims. They have a youtube channel too. I don't download because my pc could never run some of their builds, but her solution for a barn with cottage living is the best.
I think my notebook can handle more than I think but I prefer to not use clutter so the lots load faster. You know these building people use random objects to create new shapes ? that probably the worst kind of lots for gameplay.
There’s some builders I personally think are one of the best that I recommend which are: SydMac (Sydney Macoretta) Lucy (that’s only the name she uses but I would search Lucy sims to find her) Doctor Ashley SarinaSims Jessicapie Schnuck Aveline Simlicy Kate Emerald Marmelad
I'm actually excited to hear you don't like building and just want to furnish, because I'm like that too. My building skill consists of making a square and smacking a roof on it lol. I just want to have enough space and be able to furnish. I see all these creative builds and I'm like damn I wouldn't have thought about that. I'm also SUPER picky about the amount of space, so I need a house that's just right for the number of sims moving in and enough space to have fun furnishing (because for me that's the most fun besides gameplay so if I have no room to furnish it's just annoying). By the time I find a house I don't even want to build or add to it or anything like that. I used to take the houses furnished and just change what I wanted to change on the inside, but nowadays I mostly just leave the house unfurnished and do whatever I want with it. My interior decorating is usually very colorful though. Beige and other neutral colors don't do it for me. I like a variety of colors across my builds and I color code all of them. Neutral colors bore me tbh. SAME ABOUT THE FAKE CARS. I either just delete the garages or turn them into part of the house. I don't hate how it looks, but it's a waste of space for me. Also YES about the gallery, ugh. I always get repeats of the same lots and it's not a reupload from another user, but literally the same build from the same user. If I go down far enough it actually sometimes starts to repeat everything at the top. Sims team fix the gallery 2023 challenge.
i LOVE yukihyo6121 builds! they have a youtube channel called yukihyo where they post their timelapses and they always turn out so gorgeous and jaw dropping. they're definitely heavy on the clutter side, but i'd love to see them featured in a video !
I love Simproved because her builds are amazing and detailed but she also play tests everything to make sure it’s playable. When new packs come out I wait for her RU-vid review of build and buy to really see everything in the pack.
Thanks for these recommendations! I'm always looking to leech off of someone else's creativity 😂. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's gallery is showing multiples. Thought something was wrong with my game for a bit.
I build my sims homes usually. I use house floor plans and base the interior off the sims personalities. I always make very bright colorful nurseries. I usually choose 3 colors that work together or a theme like the jungle or butterflies.
I also always delete the debug cars 😂 I don’t want a useless building on my lot, so I’ll turn it into a home gym or art studio or even an apartment for the in-laws 😂
3:54 it's not really duplicate but my gallery always repeats on the selection. Like you scroll five times and then when you scroll, it felt like you're back at the beginning. I'm really really new on the sims 4 gallery since the last time I played was before university and back then I didn't touch the gallery like at all. I wish the gallery have better filtering option. Like what's the point of adding the custom or show owned pack filter if it's doesn't work. Also add masculine and feminine frame option for households.
Anyone knows or can recommend any builders that are only using limited packs, like if they build on a lot in Forgotten Hollow, they will only use from Base Game and Vampires only...
I have a friend that loves Building in the Sims (some of his builds are kinda cool ngl) His gallery name Is Xx_charlieUwU_xX (it's ironic), if It Isn't a bother give him a try, It would male him happy
Does it feel like any queer person who doesn't have entirely hard left "liberal" opinions is accused of being "super conservative"? Like, it feels like people don't know how to reconcile their assumptions with the reality that people are f*%$ing complex with layers and variation. ANYWAY, sorry for that rant. But I love that you just seem honest and unfiltered. Just stay you babe.
Beige/grey homes are not for me. My bedroom walls are turquoise, not pastel, like peacock/the gemstone/bright turquoise. My kids would have been (I am infertile though) the kids with the crayon box nursery. I do 100 baby challenges all the time, and beige is banished and grey is in exile.
I can't even find the cupcake machine in the build/buy. I have even typed it in by name and it never showed up. I also got a kitchen/room off the gallery that included the cupcake machine and the game deleted the machine and nothing else. (I do have GtW) Do you know if EA removed it or changed the name?
I am like you love spacious not too cluttered, I am not a builder so I am grateful for the gallery, has to be furnished, sorry @Daniellebuilds, beautiful builds but I wouldn't know what to do with them. I also delete the fake cars in builds. I f I can't interact with it, I don't want it.
I’m so gutted with the Gallery issues at the moment, it keeps removing all of my followed accounts so just saving these videos for when they finally manage to fix it….🙄 I love these creators though
I dont know if you can help me with this but when I created my legacy character forever ago I made a few characters(including my main character) for certain parts of my story. I saved them all and uploaded them privately on my gallery but they aren't there now since EA stopped using origins, I wonder if that is the reason? The save file from my legacy is there still along with my main character but for some reason he looks nothing like he did
Hello! I’m from USA and I’m in love with your channel!! I just started playing Sims4 for about 3 months now ( on console ) and boy have I been missing out!!! Your videos really help me a lot and I just love your humor. Pretty soon and I’m going to be ready to play in PC I’m excited to play with CC and Mods. Because I am new to this, what are some PC’s and/or laptops I could use for this game??? Anyone feel free to answer.
I play on an HP Omen laptop. It's more than what Sims games need, but it handles all games on ultra settings fine and never gets hot. (no crashes, either)
The Lots I upload to the Gallery are fully furnished with everything a Sim needs but mainly Base Game and a few of the Freebie Packs so almost anyone can download them. I make them fully furnished and completely functional for two reasons, the first being that I'm going to use it as My Primary Sim's new HQ and two, so it's downloadable for someone to drop in and play who can't or doesn't like building and furnishing but I leave enough open space for adding new items, decor and clutter. My builds are usually between the $300-$400K range, they also include a lot of Career unlockables and Emotional/Inspiration Aura items. I also pay a lot of attention to landscaping and item placement all around the property, every angle. Foot traffic is important as well, my newest build is a one floor, one bedroom, 2 baths, kitchen, dining, office, living and hall but has 8 entrances around the entire home with 6 patios including the entire rooftop (which isn't a second floor but the actual roof) with a lounge and hot tub as well as my microscope and telescope, and a side yard with pool, bar-b-q and bar. The house is designed for 1 Sim and it's huge considering the lot size, I had to kick Johnny Zest out of that Mesquite place, I now call it Desert Oasis. It's on the Gallery but even I can't tell you my in-game name, I never bothered changing it from that gobbledy-gook random character name they give you when you start. I also made a public pool lot with a hedge maze called Shrubbery Public Park because some of my builds don't have swimming pools and most of my Sims like to swim.
I also give a detailed description of what the home was designed for, a single Sim, a couple, family with teen, family with twin children, whatever, kinda like a real estate agent's spiel, nobody else ever leaves a description.
Doesn’t matter if creators do limited pack builds. The gallery filters won’t let you FIND them. So yes, I can watch videos like this that give specific creators/builds by name, or read blog posts that contain links, but the gallery itself is an exercise in frustration if I ever want to find anything new. It is, essentially, USELESS.
My gallery has started deleting all my following list everytime I start the game up. Fed up with the gallery is crap anyway. 😢 Devon Bumpkin (Aden) built the Gnomes Arms pub in the game for EA and then redid it later
Have you tried la rosay posay B5 cream? I have similarly sensitive skin, it’s horrible. This stuff is WORTH IT! soothes any irritation better than prescription cream!!
I’m new to the Sims 4 and I thought I was going crazy because there is so many dupes! At first I thought Creators uploaded the same lot multiple times! Then I realized it’s every creator!
I wish I could follow these people, but the EA app still doesn’t work for me so I can’t play 😅. Landscaping and roofing are my least favorite thing to do especially manipulating the terrain.😫
I would absolutely LOVE to follow these creators, but my gallary has been messed up since the last patch. All the creators I use to follow, I no longer follow and when I try to refollow them, it only last until I close out the game. When I reload, it's back to me not following any creators. It's VERY frustrating because I can't filter to find any new builds, I have to go and search each creator by name. EA is aware that this is an issue affecting a massive amount of people, but instead of correcting it, they try to silence everyone. Absolutely horrendous.
Hi, some of them are good but they have RU-vid Chanel's so they are going to be well known. I have some good builds on the gallery and like a lot of us that do not have youtube . we do not get appreciated enough for our work. I post on the gallery everyday from builds, sims, shorts and tool mod tips. For your skin, If I am feeling really hot or poorly, I use after sun that has been in the fridge, helps cool you down instantly. I too have sensitive skin so I know how it can feel not using the right or a new product :-)
I play on xbox and didnt have much problems with the gallery before. But since the update its glitchy with repeatative uploads, half of the creators that I follow are gone and the half of the other half is named anonymous…
As someone who as like 3 packs and 2 kits, its true that it doesnt really matter. I download whatever I want, change whats missing with what i have and sometimes use the pictures for reference if too much doesnt show. Nobody ever bothered to make nice fields for the cottage pack, but I can work with some of the ranch stuff that came out now.
I actually never build beige nursery rooms, because i always think "this is would be super depressing as a kid" and also i never really left the kid phase i love colours! My own apartment has orange walls and deep blue in the bedroom.
Mosquitoes don't bite me (or my dad) for some reason, but my mom has a giant bullseye we guess. It really sucks when you have to figure out whether a rash or a mosquito bite is less irritating.
OMG i just realised i might be one of these "shell builders" because i cannot do a proper floor plan to save my life my sims always live in ridiculous open plan houses
I have that same issue with my skin . I got a chemical burn trying to laminate my eyebrows 😅 . Also love your content and I love how straight forward and honest you are. ❤❤❤❤
This was such an useful video!!! I've been trying to get more into playing the game rather than building and running out of energy and motivation to play in those houses so this video is exactly what I needed right now.
Hey guys, Im looking for my first ever pack, out of the main ones on sale on the ea store, which do we recommend. I love build mode and want new world/more gameplay, i dont care about cas as much. What would be the best 'bang for my buck'?? tysm
