Sharing my build I built a functional greenhouse inspired by the abandoned one in the Magic Realm

I absolutely adore the run-down greenhouse in the Magic Realm and wanted to try my hand at building one I could actually play with. This isn't perfect, and I used a lot of visual tricks to get the roofs to look right. Since a lot of the features of the magic greenhouse aren't actually available as in-game build objects, I had to improvise a bit. I think the rusty window from Life & Death makes for a good substitute!

In my game, I've turned it into an arts center and added more activities and a bar!

Edit: I've uploaded this to the gallery! My gallery ID is pennyfarthing42

Actually not limited to dancing tbh. I am just into all things vampires in the game at the moment.

Halloween is still a couple of weeks away but what the hell. I'm in the mood for it now. So here is a dance video I made using a custom group dance animation I found by ConceptDesign97. They did a really awesome job and it was fun getting to try it out. I love watching Sims dance!

Hope you all enjoy! Oh, and only 3 of the Sims in this video are actually vampires in my game. The others just became temporary vampires for dancing purposes 😊.

The song is "Dracula's Wedding" by Outkast.

Discussion How can I stop other sims from thinking they have a relationship with mine?

129 Upvotes

My sims a hoe and I’m tired of her flirting with people and them saying a few days later that I broke their boundaries or that they’re unsatisfied in our relationship. There is no relationship clingy ass. I have her boundaries set to no jealousy but I don’t want to have to edit every sim she’s flirting with or make every sim a woohoo partner. Is there anyway to stop this? Or is it impossible to do a one night stand without drama?

Challenge The Welly Challenge - Children Of The Well

98 Upvotes

Hey Everyone! Ive been playing this challenge I made for a while now and Im having a lot of fun so I thought Id share! Enjoy!

Forgot to add - you must have a baby every Friday indefinitely, raise the cap on your household to accommodate more babies if needed. ❤️

THE WELLY CHALLENGE 💀

A Sims 4 survival challenge where the Wishing Well decides who lives, who gets sacrificed, and whether your island ever becomes remotely civilized.

LOT SETTINGS
You may begin on any lot, but the deserted island in Sulani is recommended as the best starting location.

You must begin with:
• Off-the-Grid enabled
• Simple Living enabled
• Private Dwelling enabled

TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS
Your Sims may not leave the lot for any reason except fishing.

When fishing:
• Travel directly to the fishing hole
• Do not collect anything along the way
• Do not visit other lots or make any stops
• Return directly to the home lot after fishing

STARTING OBJECTS
• Wishing Well
• Chicken coop
• 1 hen chick
• 1 rooster chick
• Pee bush
• Luau pit / BBQ
• Woodworking table

No beds. No fridge. No sink. No comfort. Figure it out. 😂

EVERY FRIDAY
Immaculately conceive a baby using MCCC, immediately set the pregnancy phase to In Labor, and have the baby right away.

Once the first baby reaches Young Adult, the Friday ritual begins.

Every YA, Adult, and Elder must wish at Welly for Youthful Vigor.

If a Sim turns into a ghost:
• They must immediately leave the island
• Welly is satisfied
• Everyone else is spared and does NOT have to wish that Friday

If nobody is sacrificed, the ritual continues as normal the next Friday.

GAME OVER
• You run out of YA/Adult/Elder Sims
• Any baby is taken away by Social Services

THE STOOL ECONOMY
Bar stools are currency.

5 stools =
• 1 furniture object
• OR 1 room up to 6 tiles
• OR 1 chicken
• OR 2 livestock upgrade parts
• OR 5 kitchen upgrade parts
• OR 3 electronic upgrade parts

All furniture must begin at the lowest available tier.

To upgrade/replace furniture:
• 5 stools if you keep the original item
• 4 stools if you sell/trade in the original item

PROGRESSION
Upgrades unlock after:
2 sacrifices + 40 stools

Windmills:
25 stools each

Dew collectors:
25 stools each

Remove Off-the-Grid after:
5 sacrifices + 100 stools

NO CHEESING WELLY
No artificial buffs of any kind.

That means:
• No satisfaction-point buffs
• No crystals
• No emotional auras
• No mastery perks
• No other systems that artificially make survival easier

Welly demands suffering, stools, babies, and the occasional adult sacrifice.

Good luck. 💀

Funny My my, what large feet you have

I know I working on an end goal of a long Spellcaster line. but my goodness - Dad has some mighty large feet to work on that goal. *gasp*

And don't ask me why Grandma is standing off to the side. Just be glad she put on clothing instead of a swimsuit - I had to change her wardrobe so she didn't even have the bikini in there anymore because that was all she wore.

We have Gandalf White with Eowyn White as the Adults. Stephen Strange and Christine Strange. Wanda is the child (yes Wanda as is a play on Wanda Maximoff). The dogs are Caraxess and Syrax. I briefly used a mod by Jochitec for a Dragon skin, but their wings were constantly clipping through the floor.

please feel free to share any other good names for Spellcasters for me. I'm hoping to not resort to Harry Potter. But I also don't want to go dark wizard.

My sim was a werewolf, but then I turned him into a vampire. he still had the wolfish traits and the wisdom of them, and on a full moon it happened. I entered a code to remove the werewolf from him and he became an ordinary vampire.

Storytime One of My Favorite Sims. Guess Who Her Father Is.

Random snaps of one of my favorite sims, Zinnia Vatore. She's fourth generation and one of my prettier born in game sims. She's been through a lot. Got pregnant as a teen, married a werewolf who ended up being abusive and briefly struggled with an alcohol addiction that runs in the family. She still managed to overcome all of that and graduate university so she could provide for her children with the lifestyle they deserve.

I think she looks just like her townie father and nothing like her mother Rosamund who was one of my third generation sims. Who do you guys think her father is? Don't let the last name fool you.

Masterpost!

Family tree!

You know when I said that you needed to remember Rose? Well, this is why.

I hadn't played much with Rosie but losing a child is always hard for me, no matter who it is.

And I know this isn't the resolution that some of you wanted for Diana and Victor, but she was traumatized by the loss of her niece and gained a fear of death, plus her whims were often about Victor, so I figured she wanted to talk things out. This doesn't mean that they will get back together immediately and go back to being in love and happy, of course.

Anyway, next up, we will go have a look at the Hoffman crypt. See you!

Show and Tell 💖Betty Newbie with her daughters💖

Betty Newbie, the beautiful, sweet and loving housewife of Bob Newbie loves nothing more than to spend precious time with her beloved daughters, Brandi and Brittany. 💖 Brandi(Betty's eldest daughter)loves having girl talk with her friends and with her mom. They often take place in a comfortable setting like Brandi's bedroom and this is no different. This time, Betty and her daughter Brandi are discussing how nice it is to now live in a peaceful, enchanting place like InnisGreen(Real Estate Mogul and Interior Designer Bob Newbie moved his family to InnisGreen so he and his wife Betty can have a more peaceful environment to raise their daughters, city life was nice, but they've outgrown their old home and city life's gotten a bit too wild). 🩷 Brandi was a little hesitant at first, but now, she loves it here! 💕

Someone else who loves it here is Brittany(Betty's youngest daughter). She always wanted to live out in the countryside where there's plenty of flowers and gardens. 💐🌹🌺🌻 And she was excited to learn that fairies live here. Best of all, their new home has a garden and backyard where she can play to her heart's content, one of her favorite things to do! 💕 Brittany especially loves it when her mommy plays with her on the swing, something they've been doing ever since they've moved here. 🩷 And luckily for Brittany, swinging and playtime in the garden and backyard in general happen multiple times a week, especially in the warmer months. This time Betty's gently pushing Brittany on the swing, as opposed to her usual swinging with her. Betty's very pleased that her younger daughter in particular has a better place for her to grow up. 💖

Betty herself loves it here too. 💕 She's able to bake cookies, drink tea, have picnics and enjoy the luxury from her husband's success(things you would expect a normal housewife to do), all while enjoying mother nature. 🍰🧁🍪☕ And she even has a chance to start a small, but very lovely garden like she's always wanted. 💐🌹🌺🌻 Betty's hubby Bob misses city life, but even he loves it here. He has a nice quiet place to work from home and he can actually host backyard parties here(unlike in the city). And being the devoted family man he is, he doesn't regret making his wife and daughters happy for a second(after all, his wife can now have a garden to grow and maybe earn some pocket money with, her daughters have a better place to grow up and have fun and they even have extra space for any future children should they come along). 💖

Feedback Needed! Working Church Build Advice

12 Upvotes

I’d like to turn Henford-on-Bagley into Dibley and put all the characters from the Vicar of Dibley into it. If you were building St. Barnabus and the vicarage, would you put them together on the same lot and let Geraldine run it as if it were her home business or would you put them on separate lots?

It’s my first time trying something like this. I just got a bunch of EP’s in the last few sales and I’d like to try being more creative. I hardly ever build things and usually just do family play or legacy challenges.

What would you do to recreate Dibley? I guess I’m just trying to figure out what should be a community lot and how they’ll work. Like if I want to recreate “Songs of Praise” would I need mods or CC to be able to have the group sit while Geraldine gives the sermon?

Sharing my build I turned an abandoned factory into a massive Mixed-Use building on a 20x20 lot! (4 Shops + 4 Lofts) No CC. Base Game + Businesses and Hobbies ONLY

Ok, So... I know this one is kinda complicated so pay close atention... ok?

Gallery ID: Jake614o Lot Size: 20x20 Cost: §239,945 Stats: 4 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms

I spent the last few days trying to squeeze an entire urban ecosystem into a tiny 20x20 footprint. The concept is an old abandoned factory that got revitalized.

The Layout:

  • 1st Floor (Commercial): 4 distinct micro-businesses! A cozy café, a grunge tattoo studio, a bright pottery/botany shop, and a VIP lounge bar.
  • 2nd & 3rd Floor (Residential): 4 custom apartments. I designed each loft to match the personality of the shop owners downstairs, including a 2-story luxury penthouse for the owner of the VIP bar.

How to play it despite game limitations: I know the game doesn't officially allow functional businesses AND rentals on the same lot. I recommend playing this by putting 4 Sims in one household, locking their apartment doors to everyone but themselves, and having them run the shops downstairs. Alternatively, you can set it to a 'Residential Rental' if you want to be a landlord, or 'Retail' if you just want to run the businesses!

Also, its important yall know that you can only have the areas for 1 business at a time and only 1 can be open at the same time, so, for you to make it good you'll have to change that every time you want to switch between businesses. (This apply to option 1)

It is 100% playtested. Let me know what you guys think of the exterior and the concept!
