pretending i can build custom apartments in the sims 

Okay but the fact that the vidcon security didnt do anything about that guy is genuinely scary. He couldve hurt someone. I totally understand you bc omg....

That’s so weird, glad you ended up being ok but geez, you’d think that event security would DO something. It’s sad that Dream’s security team had to take action instead

I really wish we could build real apartments in the sims !!😭

The vidcon story is scary! I'm glad no one got hurt but it's scarier that the vidcon security did nothing and the responsibility fell to someone else's private security... I'm sorry that happened during your big panel but I hope the rest of vidcon was okay! The disneyland story is pretty cool haha. Thanks for the video!

Simsie is so kind, she post videos every day. I am so thankful

Who else wants hotels in the sims:

But SIMSIE, you were a PROFESSIONAL up there. That was genuinely terrifying but you didn't freak out and totally held your cool. You go girl!

I’m so sorry that happened to you. That is seriously terrifying and knowing that the event’s security did nothing is a giant problem. If dream didn’t have security, who knows what would’ve happened.

I actually really appreciate that you left the right side of this duplex unfurnished! For one, like what you said, a lot of people (including me) like to furnish, but do not like to do exteriors and floorplans, and it feels weird to gut and refurnish other people’s builds. Also, it allows you to furnish the other side with only the packs you have, if you don’t have all the packs.

As soon as the pack was released I came back to this video cause I loved this shell

The fact that vidcon security didn't do anything is actually f-cked up. For your safety and everyone else's, maybe don't go back? That seems like a nightmare waiting to happen if they just let people do that with the state our country is in right now.

Challenge Idea: I know you usually keep painting the walls until the end. So maybe you could do a challenge where painting the walls is the first thing you do (after building the shell/floorplan of course) and then you have to keep whatever walls you picked and try to furnish it accordingly. The extra challenge would be not to just chose white or blue for everything but basically trying out wallpapers you don't use that often.

At this point I kind of feel like whenever simsie says ‘i highly doubt we’ll ever get this’ that becomes real so I’m actually hoping for apartments sometime in the future.

The only thing I'm thinking is: Dream has private security? Like does this kind of thing happen regularly with him?

I’m glad Bink and Bonk (that’s what fans have named Dreams security) got rid of the weirdo because that could’ve ended badly. Hope you’re okay cause that sounds super stressful. Other than that sounded like you had a good time so that’s wonderful to hear :)

I literally feel like we're on facetime. You are so talented. Please stop bringing yourself down. You do amazing and you are amazing 🤩

that is so scary somemone got on stage and vidcon did nothing. I'm glad you and everyone are okay, but I would be so scared to go to vidcon or other events again if I were you. I think, like dream, if you go to an event like that again you should have your own security as well. It is better to be safe than sorry. and maybe they can protect others like how dreams security protected all of you guys on the panel.

There are basements like that where I live, we call them walk out basements. Usually they're in the back of the house and the patio area connects in some way to the backyard. It happens a lot on houses built into hillsides.

“We have a hole in the front yard” Perfect for hiding that sims sister’s children 😆

When Simsie initially said “a guy in a shark costume” I thought it was Foolish, but then as the story went on I was like “nah that couldn’t have been him” to “oh god I’m glad that wasn’t him”

One of my favorite recent builds was a duplex. I initially only decorated the side I planned to live in, then I thought it wouldn't hurt to just mirror the bathroom, oh, but I should do the bedroom too, oh, and I could add a wall here to make a kids room, and Oops, I furnished the whole house

I love your "podcasty" videos there so personal make me feel like im on facetime 😆😊

I actually started watching you and your builds because of the I Dream of Streaming panel! Even though Dream's security had to be the one to ensure safety, the rest of the panel was still fun to watch and hear your takes on it!

I really wish apartments in the sims 4 could work like in the sims 2 where it was a type of lot so you could make your own!!!

custom apartment simsie is too much power for the gallery to handle

Simsie is the best, She is entertaining, she's kind to all her fans and shes not problematic. What more could you ask for in a youtuber?

idea- what if you build a house but each room is a different gnome? there's so much variation, i think it'd be fun:)

Kayla you are just so precious. I love hearing your stories and watching you build. It's a good way to wind down after a long and/or stressful day. I appreciate you lots.

This might be one of my favorite builds shes ever done! Normally im not one for pink but I love the building and overall aesthetic so much. I know Kayla doesnt like building modern places very much but this is gorgeous!

you spoke about simmers who prefer decorating over building, and it would be really cool if you buildt a basegame house with a floorplan and windowplacement, but left the decorating and painting of the walls to us. then later you could tour our build's. sorta like the shell challenge but not really. love your vids kayla

hi simsie! could you do a video on your tips for the sims on how to not get bored or storyline ideas you have? we all burn out a little and i’d love to know what you’d do!

VidCon seems to have a really bad security problem, Ive heard a couple of RU-vidr's mentioning this happening and nobody really does anything before its sometimes goes to far.. I hope you guy can like brig it up with VidCon, as it can be potentially dangerous or just plain uncomfortable. The Trash Taste Guys experienced this on a live show and was quite shaken even

It's actually kind of concerning that vidcon's security did nothing about the shark man, they should have gotten to him before he got over the fence

This looks great simsie, your such a great builder and you post everyday for us, so kind ❤ (Also omg, security should’ve stopped that guy way sooner than they did, you would’ve been so scared)

i´m still salty about the balcony working in the beta testing of eco lifestyle, but not usable in the final product you could have had your juice fizz station or a bug farm on it...

Little did she know that we would end up having landlords and tenants in the Sims...

you have such a good attitude about it& im glad everyone ended up being okay with the vidcon story, but that could've been a LOT worse. i'm really disgusted.. if someone ON the panel is able to perceive someone posing a potential threat before they even got to the stage, where the hell were security?? what's the point of having them if you aren't safe

Here in tornado country we call the "big hole in the ground" irl a "daylight window" and it lets a pretty shocking amount of light into the bedroom. I think you have to build it on the correct side of the house to maximize sunlight. There's usually a ladder (so you can escape a fire instead of getting trapped in the basement) and people will decorate them. My parents did a kitschy wildlife theme (think wooden cat playing a banjo) but my grandmother used hers like a tiny green house because they usually have a clear cover of them. Edit: to mimic a real one in the Sims I use the small saucer light and size it down to make sure enough light comes through and then I put a glass roof over the top which is kind of tricky.

You being afraid when that guy got up on the stage is completely valid, i’m sorry that you experienced that. I wonder what kind of liability the vidcon convention has over the safety of their speakers if none of their own security stepped in, but regardless it’s an incredibly bad impression to leave on the content creators that they invite in the future

I dont know why, but I love cozy homes. Im just never really into the modern stuff, but i do like this build you did. its cool your trying out different things. I'd love for you to add more of the "cheats" you see on shorts. I love the stuff people make out of debug and get really creative and seeing you teach me in the way you do, i would understand so much better! Love u simise

i love this style of house! it's quite different to your normal style and i really like it i hope you play in it

def downloading this. gonna turn the right side into a cafe/library and redecorate the apartment on the left. connecting the basements and setting the whole lot to cafe

What Kayla thinks is a mess I still think is a masterpiece I could never build.

Poor Kayla! I’m so sorry that happened to you! Did Vidcon not deeply apologize? So scary!! I hope you have a therapist you can talk to about it. That stuff can cause PTSD. Love u.

omg i love this video!!! really missed the old speed builds with old simsie stories and it was a nice throwbacks

hearing kayla say "a mature pink, like pink and grey" made me feel so validated because my favorite color is pink and my kitchen is pink and grey >:)

I find this whole "two houses, one lot" really funny. I'm not sure if this happens in other countries, but here in Argentina we have something called PH, short for Propiedad Horizontal (Horizontal Property). This are basically really old and huge houses that got divided and sold as sepate properties at some point. So if you rent there or simply buy and live there, you are right next to your neighbor as you would be in an apartment, but sometimes you have shared expenses, as the houses are not "together" but they share the land, so maybe the water line is the same and stuff like that. So, this concept isn't so weird! PS: But I still wish we could make apartments like we used to un sims 2. :C

I like builds like this for the same reason as keeping my family together yet technically "living on their own." And using MC Command Center I can expand the household size to do it. It works fairly well usually, although I do have a save file where the family got to 50 people and I don't want to raise the household size any further because I'm certain my PC couldn't handle many more sims. I used someone's fake apartment building originally and that helped for awhile as it had eight apartments so as the family grew and the original sims' kids aged to young adults they could move out, get married, have kids. I also like doing it that way because then my sims can take their items when they "move" since that's realistic. Once I got to where the eight apartments was no longer functioning I just added townhouses to the lot (they live on a 64x64 lot in Windenburg, but the fake apartment building was built on a smaller lot size so I had plenty of room to build the townhouses, although I'm not a great builder so they don't look as nice as the original). I've tried searching for good looking fake apartment buildings with more apartments to them, but haven't come across any (it's hard to search that, though) and have tried townhouses as a search option, too. So I definitely don't mind when some of them are empty because in my gameplay I'll eventually furnish them. I don't own all the packs either so sometimes when I download builds like this from the gallery I don't get everything anyways, but I still apreciate that simmers builds them, even if unfurnished, because I do I'm someone who is using them in their gameplay!

UGH YESSSSSSS…..I NEED functional hotels/apartments with multiple households. So necessary

this video is so cute post for rent, your dreams came true

What the heck is Vidcon security even doing if they're not stopping randos from just getting up and close?? 😮

I think we also need more bed-looking beds in general tbh 🙈

I love the colour scheme of this build! Looks so good 🩷🩶

I would LOVE to see a pack similar to Apartment Life where you can build your own apartment buildings and maybe even be able to rent your own houses and become a landlord.

That underground covered patio would be so good for a spellcaster or werewolf space or workout area! Maybe even an art studio or little garden.

omg i literally do this all the time I just spent like 2 hours making meltable family for a hotel i made

new favorite simsie build this looks sooooo good

Love it. In old city's in Europe it's pretty common to have windows in the basement. In Dutch and French we call this basement Souterain.

im really wnjoying the build thus far!! but gosh that vidcon situation is absolutely horrifying. why in the world did they not have security by the fences?? as if nothing bad ever happens at events? if that guy had wanted to harm someone he couldve done so multiple times by the time they came…gosh im so sorry thats absolutely awful, glad luck was on your side 🫠

I just watched the video of shark guy. I can imagine it was scary, but putting all that aside and just imagining it without context.. goodness that was so awkward that it was funny. The fact that he was a shark, doing the worm and then being dragged off stage while flailing his arms and legs. The frick did I just watch, an episode of the Office? 😂😭

Dream and Kayla at the same panel at vidcon!! what a cool crossover, i love both dream and kayla

This build was absolutely adorable!! The pinks, limitless packs, you having fun with it, the shape being interesting and not another suburban... But the story was messed up 💀 I'd never go to a place with that much carelessness towards danger

The shark guy is scary. I am thinking of Christina Grimmie situation. That was also a case that did go very bad at a public event. So that vidcon security didnt do anything and he was able to get onto the stage at all is terrifying! This genuinly needs to he addressed by the event!

That dark dusky pink is one of my fav colors! Like the wallpaper in the games room 🤌

I did some digging and aparently the fish guy is from one of those dumb "comedy" channels. His buddies dared him to do it. But yeah, sounds like VidCon really needs to have better security. Guess it's good Dream seems to have his own security crew. Couldn't imagine how scary that had to have been in the moment. On a note relating to the build- Nice! I know you're not super confident in more modern style buildings, but you always do a great job!

If we can't have the whole building apartments since we technically already have them, then I would take like town homes or duplexes that are connected like in the sims 2 and not the skyscraper apartments.

Hotels/resorts are absolutely what the next EP needs to be~! And with that for us to be able to make our own apartments. Absolutely.

I love this kind of video!! It reminds me of your speed build Sundays from your high school and college years and all the drama you’d unload - I think there was a girl named Becky or something? Ugh those were some of my favorites

Townhouse is when there’s 3 or more houses sharing a wall, what you built is 2 separate “semi-detached” houses, it’s not a apartment or duplex as each house is owned, only the middle wall is shared to save space.

this is really bringing me back to like 2017 speed build sundays with susan stories lmao

i would love if we could freely build without being restricted to individual lots, maybe well see that in the sims 5

i'd be more than happy if we had the possibility to build apartment complexes like in the sims 2 where you'd type in a cheat and place the apartment door as the front door for each apartment to separate them, it was so much fun!

Really glad Dreams security was there

I LOVE IT. A very imaginative structure, keep them coming!!!

the doors going into the basement outside bit, irl would be a great way to break in if someone just jumped down and opened the door.

I really enjoy these podcasty videos. Thanks so much! 🥰

I so wished they'd make sims an open world game. Several towns you can visit, functional bus stops that work like teletransportation but mock buses here and there, multiple families in a building, etc.

Something really similar happened to Trash Taste when they were touring the US, what the hell are these cons doing with such crappy and lax security? So scary, anything could happen. Glad you're ok and nothing happened.

simsie this is such a beautiful build!!!

The Sims do really post exciting trailers when you’re travelling 😭 EVERY TIME AAAH 😂

simsie knowing owen wilson as lightning mcqueen is the funniest thing ever💀💀💀💀💀💀

I LOVE this build!❤️❤️

The best day of my life was meeting you! You probably don’t remember me, but you signed the picture of my first house at the very end. I saw the beginning of the “I Dream of Streaming” panel, and I love dream and Eret too so that was really cool. Sorry I missed the ending I went to the skephalo meet n greet but I saw the clip and it’s wild lol 😅

i watched a video of the panel and was excited to hear kayla talk about the fish guy (obviously not because it was funny, if i had been in kaylas shoes i probably would have cried lol)

This build is GORGEOUS

I love this build so much! 😍

This is really cute and nice. I love it!

Please I hope hope ea is listening to the part where simsie talk about recoloring beds and couchh!!

Horses were once a pipe dream, so never say never 🤞🏼

Now that the sims 4 has horses, there’s nothing else I wish we had. I’d be happy with anything new but I’m content!

Love this build ❤️

It would be so cool if we could do that, but we can’t even fully customize the apartments we have :/

It's always a good day when you post! Thank you for pushing out the awesome content even though you've been busy traveling across the country! I appreciate you videos, they always pick me up! (:

A danish pastel kinda house would be cute I think, it would suit the current Barbie vibe you are experiencing 😊

this house is giving James Turner formerly known as TheSimsSupply

It looks so nice. I wanna go play in it right now 😂

love it, please make more!!! :D

i miss simsie podcast speebuilds. just casual stuff about what happened at school/uni! i don’t think talking more about life than the build bothers anyone :)

I actually help make the begniets in the park XP hope you enjoyed them although I wouldn’t blame you if seeing JAMIE LEE CURTIS completely overshadowed eating them

I wish they updated City Living so that you can build your apartment only when you have this pack and that itself would give value to this pack thus they could add city apartment spaces to worlds like san sequoia... Because now we cannot count on any new city world as that would lose sense of City Living EP...
