we can EDIT WINDOWS in san myshuno apartments?! 

Deligracy is probably feeling real frustrated right now that she's like 99% done with her San Myshuno rebuilding

fingers crossed they let us change the front doors next!

I get that you can't change the lot traits cause is like part of the "fun" that you have to suck it up, but the front door... Please let me center the door😭😭

Okay but why haven’t I heard anyone talk about how the makeup you put on your sims in CAS literally stays on through all the outfits? It was the highlight of my day yesterday. It literally made CAS so easy.

I feel like the reason this wasn't mentioned is because, coding wise, it was probably a by-product of making apartments in the first place. Like they probably used the apartment code as a foundation and built on that. So when it was implemented, it affected all apartments. So maybe less an *intended* feature and more something that just happened.

to anyone curious, you can technically get rid of the needs tlc/historical plaque stuff. it's kind of a pain, but you just need to move someone in, delete all of their furniture, and wait until rent comes. after a few days of non-payment, the repoman will show up, and since you don't have any other furniture, they'll take the tlc stuff/plaque. I don't know for certain if it works with the plaque, but it def works with the pipes and rat holes and all that Eta: with this update, they may take the windows as well? Haven't tested it. If so just keep waiting, they'll get to the other stuff eventually (assuming this wasn't silently patched out)

Editing windows!? This is life changing!!!!

So weird that they didn’t announce this in patch notes. I know it’s not unheard of for them to forget to list something, but this is big!

Not just the windows! Onlyabidoang discovered you can also access the apartment shell lots in San Myshuno & Evergreen Harbor by placing stairs. You can’t add in new walls, but you add in furniture and it functions just fine, meaning you can turn the shell apartment into shared spaces now.

i think a really cool thing would be if sims could open and close their curtains. maybe only certain ones, but i just think it would be kinda neat.

I’d honestly rather be able to change the doors on apartments and use the balconies on the Evergreen Harbor apartments than change the windows on San Myshuno apartments.

I think City Living will always have a place for people who want apartments but don’t necessarily want to build or download them! Personally I’ll always love it because the environment itself is nostalgic to me. Its the only real metropolitan city world that we have in game I think. With skyscrapers / hi-rises and all. Now if they could just give players the freedom to change the doors and get rid of the lot challenges we don’t want, it would make everything so much better!

I accidentally deleted the windows of an apartment yesterday when I bulldozed the furniture and I thought it was a bug lmao. I’ve been wanting this ever since I bought city living!

Literally NEVER look at the outside of the apartments!! This is a huge game changer! ANd since I'm not going to buy For Rent at full price, I'm going to play some San Myshuno for now

It gives me physical pain that the open mosquito windows place flipped by default. (IRL, the windows would let in rain if placed like that)

I think you’re gonna love the fact that they’ve added Johnny Zest to the Landgraab family tree😊

Ok but like can we just appreciate how Kayla uploads every day? Like she’s the only reason why I keep playing the sims lol

I have also chosen not to care about the outside! Why care, we cannot change it and it's more fun to just not care. Sometimes i have decision fatigue though,and in that case I'm happy to just rearrange/remove/reswatch the existing windows.

since it wasn't mentioned anywhere, and we just had a pack where you could fully customize and build your own apartments ... i firmly believe this is an unintended "bug". Maybe some of the apartment-building-coding overlapped with the city living apartments and that's why the outside walls are customizable BECAUSE why, if it was intentional, aren't the hallway doors and lot traits customizable/changable? Exactly. Maybe they will even "fix" the bug and then the community will riot.

The entire apartment is the definition of “tell me you like women without telling you like women” I love it

I really want to see a courtyard oasis style apartment building with the courtyard being the central shared space

I swear i almost cried when i saw the apartments with the windows I wanted in the place i wanted 💀

Time to put the Industrial Loft Kit to good use especially the windows in that kit for San Myushino.

the fact that us simmers get so excited over the smallest things lol. give us the chance to change window or a throw pillow for a couch & we’re happy for weeks lmfao

i appreciate simsie's builds so much. i love using her older builds still like the little newcrest houses, and just regular family homes. there's just something so clean about her builds and her decorating that i love in my game. her builds don't cause lag either so im always using them!! also i get sims news from her anytime something new happens and the good and the bad of new sims things!! lol

Now if only they can make apartments easier to get from the gallery 🤞🏽

I found this feature by accident when I was messing around with Eco Lifestyle. The issue with doors seems to be that you can't edit anything that goes up against the hallway/shared space. In one of the Eco Lifestyle apartments I could change any windows on the walls except for anything on the front wall since that's where the hallway is. Still: game changer.

I clicked so fast. When she says she complained about this for years, SHE MEANS IT ;D Literally in every video with an apartment speed build haha. And I supported the complaints wholeheartedly because although I don't play, certain windows' placements or colours were indeed aggravating. Very happy for you Kayla :D

thank u for striking simsie, ur amazing!

you can add workable outside stairs to the smaller apartments too and ladders (and inside stairs) that can go nowhere

The best update in a while 😂😂

they made kayla’s dreams come true

ended up playing in an apartment that was wayyyyy too big in my new save (it's the making money challenge so they had no money either) and being able to move windows (and SELL them) so I could make the apartment smaller was a lifesaver

i feel like the next pack revamp will be city living, they need to let us adjust the entryways and doors, at the very least through manage worlds, they could also let us upload room groups to the gallery (so, apartments, but also rooms with platforms or with wardrobes, etc.). also, penny pizzazz IS supposed to be famous, she is on multiple billboards around san myshuno and yet she isnt actually famous ingame if you have get famous (?). they also need to add a toggle for festival notifications in settings, theyre so unbearably annoying when you dont care about them (because the festivals are kinda boring)

Nice apartment! I think it matches Penny perfectly! Nice to see you decorate out of your comfort zone

Ugh I wish they can update poses for taking photos. So we can do more than 3 people at a time and cute family poses etc. A photography kit would be awesome!

penny's apartment has always been my favorite but editing the windows is a game changer

I thought this was a glitch! Every once in a while the game will bug out and let me change things about the exterior, I just assumed this was another one of those bugs that'd snap back into place as soon as I loaded back into the apartment

I can’t explain how depressed I was when I first bought packs for the sims, I bought city living and industrial kit together thinking I could make an industrial apartment, and I couldn’t use the windows in the apartment. Thank GOD we can change that now. WHEN ELSE ARE YOU USING THE INDUSTRIAL LOFT KIT…. It’s an industrial LOFT

I do agree about the windows, and I'm currently busy rebuilding some horrible apartments... but the apartment with the body outline is actually the easiest to change. Instead of the weird shape, just draw a straight line. The now smaller and windowless room makes for quite a luxurious bathroom, for such a small and cheap apartment. And in the bedroom, you can now place e.g. a desk and a computer under the small window. Then remove the old bathroom, now you have a nice open-floor entertainment area, where you can put kitchen, dining and living room. Put a wall there, one tile from the entrance door - not only you now have a wall for the TV, but also an entrance hall. Now you have a luxurious apartment built in a modern style - open-space entertainment area to the left, private sleeping area to the right. And for the cheapest rent in the town, too!

This video is a little old now, but I have to say that I don't think your builds are ever too much with the color theming. I'm obsessed with it, it's so fun. Like dopamine dressing but for your sims interior design haha

There haven't been any lilsimsie updates the last two days. Is everything okay?

I would love to see a video about the extra shared space they added underneath the Stonestreet Apartments in the eco lifestyle world too! :)

I loved this video!! While this style isn’t really my style either, I REALLY appreciated you going so far outside of your sims comfort zone! I would love to see you explore and experiment even more than you already do in your sims builds!

every time I watch you build, I learn more stuff I can do in build mode like for example... YOU CAN CHNAGE THE SIZE OF RUGS?????

I accidentally found this out when I was doing a fun lil storyline in my head where my sim moved out into an apartment to raise money for a whole house- and then I accidentally grabbed a window and moved it, and I was like,” oh word?” And I forgot about it till now lol

The one on the far right I've always been able to fully edit! The windows and doors, walls stay other than inside area. I'm glad it's all of them now

THIS DID MAKE ME WANT TO CRY YES oh my goodness best day ever. I don't have For Rent yet but I love San Myshuno it's my second favourite world after Brindleton Bay and I plan on playing there regularly for the rest of Sims 4 AND THIS CHANGES THE ENTIRE GAME!!!!!!

This is a GORGEOUS flat renovation!! Love it so much!

i felt all her emotions while she was building this apartment 😂 i was like "oh no" and then i ended up liking it

Has anyone else noticed the stair rail bug seems to be fixed?? Or maybe I’m just lucky- but it’s working on my save!!

I was going to take a break from Sims tonight but as soon as I watched this I jumped right back into the game! I have so many apartments to edit

I love the slightly purple Realm of Magic bricks! When you put it on the wall the colors really came together, because it's actually so subtly tinted purple. It looks like a "normal" enough wall color when next to the bright pink and purple and it just ties them together somehow.

Hope little shrimpy is recovering well after his surgery ❤

Thank GOODNESS for this! My longest running rags-to-rishes is in a san myshuno apt. that I renovated extensively! Moving windows is a huge improvement!

i just fully started crying over this its so beutiful what

In the Feng apartment, there’s 2 windows you can’t delete because of the splendid view traits…

your build is so cute! love all the pinks!

I REALLY like this build!! I think you did really well Kayla😍

It's like we've got new apartments!😘😍 I was WAITING for Lilsimsie to announce this, I knew she'd be psyched! When she didn't know about this when she did her vid...

I think this works on the apartments in evergreen harbor too- a very welcome addition 🎉

This made me so happy because that one building had a window mistake that has driven me insane since City Living came out! I immediately fixed it.

City Living was my first Sims 4 pack, and this is actually getting me excited about it again!

this apartment remodel turned out so cute!

I always changed my windows with the tool mod and it was such a long process, Im so happy that I can do that now without a mod. But I guess I still have to use the tool mod for the door, i can really recommend this mod.

i admire your creativity Kayla lolll i honestly love it

this is life changing

I am crying from the thumbnail the video hasn’t even started yet but I am so happy

the way the sims has us so starved for features that this small change gets its own video 😭

I have my sims live in San Myshuno a lot and I don't think I'll be moving the windows around because I do care that the windows match in the exterior. However I would love to be able to change the doors.

I’m actually so excited I decorated my Sims entire apartment for a specific storyline I’m playing out with them. I’m super happy with the apartment and would not want to move them out or redo it or anything but for some reason all of the windows just randomly disappeared and I haven’t been able to put them back so I just put mirrors instead 😭😭

I love your new profile picture!! You are so pretty ❤

this has been such a great Sims year

Omg I’m so excited for this update !!

Good start exactly!

This was a fun video to watch! And so funny!

KAYLA STOP SHRINKING THE TV ALL THE TIME, PENNY WANTS A HUGE TV

I personally like the little touches to the apartments like needs TCL or Historical, because it adds a fun challenge, and irl you won't always be able to get your apartment to fit all your boxes. that's just me

I think that they were supposed to release this as the big new build feature for the for rent EP, but didn't had enough time to finish it and relised it by accident. Hopefully they'll update it to change doors too! I used this new feature to make a laundromat in the downstairs in one of the apartments of Evergreen Harbour. It is functional (you can also change the windows) but since the door is fake and you can't change it you have to teleport inside/outside.

for rent and city living have similar gameplay but with tweaks that make them unique enough, city living is still iconic because it was first though, as much as i love for rents world

I realised this yesterday when playing and I was amazed

Great video as always

Hey Lilsimsie, I definitely didn't catch that when I saw that you can move the windows or layout of the house if you're trying to do a different idea for the walls. I guess they forgot to add that into their patch as they were explaining it. I bet you were happy to see that in your game!! ❤❤❤

you can also put decore outside, change the wallpaper, the collums, and put stairs in the apartments (not able to use them however)

I really want to see a video of her renovating more apartments!

IM SHOOK OMG 😭 SO EXCITED

She updated her pfppp

I am GRIEVING that little zebra print lamp Kayla was almost about to use in the bedroom, that's like, the perfect place and the only scenario I would ever use that swatch of that lamp, it's so penny pizzazz coded 😭😭😭

@satchonsims made a video and u can change the wallpapers outside and stick anything on em! LOL he also showed u can add windows to the neighbouring apartments too!

I remember getting city living only bc of ur big sister lets play and i recreated the lets play and i remember being so sad that i couldnt add a windownin into the little sisters bedroom

I renovated Penny's apartment for my save file last year. I love how we picked the same bed!

My style is very dark industrial with pops of colour and a lot of what Simsie has hated about this apartment I’ve loved 😂 I’m OBSESSED with the chair at the desk lol

this video was so fun to watch ❤❤❤❤

when kayla said penny likes vibrant colors it made me giggle cause her name in my country is penelope vibrante (vibrant penelope)

Omg, I'm going to build right now, thats a life changer

Even when you zoom out it looks like a nice pent house! Im with it.

The ability to edit the windows literally made me cry! FINALLY 😭❤️

I actually teared up❤

kayla please do a video tier ranking all of your builds of 2023!!!

This makes the apartments there soooo much more useable!
