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! :)

Mostly wip replies :)

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? 

[starrsim]

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

[mikexx2]

Where can I find information about the logistics of the round robin legacy?

Hey @starrsim!

If by logistics, you mean the rules, you can find those HERE. :)

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

THe house looks so good. I love your decorating style. I didn’t know you ever played Strangetown��

I’ve actually played all of the hoods to some extent, both in and out of uberhoods. This was the last time I played the uberhood but I played one for a while before Sullivan too. It was a while before I finally realised I liked playing my own sims more than I liked playing anyone else’s! I still have a soft spot for stories featuring the premades, although I don’t play them myself any more. :) 

starrsim replied to your photoset “@starrsim might remember this one! This was from the same challenge,...”

I do! Crazy how now the kids are grown with kids of their own

I know! It doesn’t seem like that long ago!

Thank you @starrsim and everyone who got me to 1000 reblogs!

Rev. Dr. Basil Williams, Sr., wife Dr. Catheryn Williams, daughter Sage and son Basil Williams, Jr. Callie Raines is Catheryn’s aunt. Rev. Dr. Basil Williams is Shiloh’s Education Minister and reluctant pastor of Shiloh’s Praise House and Salem Church. Catheryn hopes to follow in her Callie’s footsteps by become the hospital’s Chief of Staff after Callie retires.

The girls are very close, with Sage being the eldest. Sage prefers more laid back fun like playing with her doll house or reading a book. However Sophia Marie who loves sports always manages to rope her into either playing catch or tossing a football.

so amazing! where did you find that grey streaked hair?

Thanks!

The hair is by DeeDee. She has recolored many meshes in this style.

More printscreened replies :)

Under the cut!

@starrsim​ you mean this? :)

@yuka-sims-v2​ thank you! I just wish it would function a bit better as a business XD

@plumbtales​ thank you! I love this house, I’m glad I could use it again for another family! :)

@devotedlyghostlyenemy​ more is coming, so stay tuned! ;)

@jazzybugg23-blog read my FAQ page! :)

@saartje77​ I know! My first alien baby is getting old! :o

@chilliblond​ I’m glad you like it ^^

[trumpets0ng]

Question-what happened to Xan’s baby? I tried to find out what the resolution of that was but I missed it

Hi Starrsim,

I’m sorry, Xander and Yasmin decided not to go through with the pregnancy. It was alluded to but I didn’t say it outright. So that’s my fault. 🤦🏾‍♀️

It was discussed here and the conclusion was here.

[kahlenas]

very late...

1. @alawren4ever yeah, I know. :) I like her because she looks kinda sad and I love sad characters. :)

2. @starrsim thank you! I like it too. I have like hundrets of beddings but I’m using only few. Trying to change that, but this one is one of favourites.

3. @littleblondesim glad you like her. Actually creating Melody was rather painful. I created a redheaded girl and didn’t like her at all - her features were changed for couple of days.

4. @alienpod <3 thank you! Custom sliders are awesome it’s true. :)

5. @simsophoniques thanks! Jane is adorable in game too, trust me. :)

6. @blackcatsims sorry. ;) I can give you a hand though. :)) Thank uou!

7. @simlishface yep, he is. :) I like him a lot, one of my favs at the moment. TY!

8. @alienpod you again? :)) I have a this dream, to see one of my sims in your game... Like in this town were Mason and Olivia lived... Or whatever. No pressure though. :D

9. & 10. @saartje77 no problem. :) Hope you’ll enjoy her in game. :)

11. @alexbgd indeed, she is. :) And she can produce lovely children too. :D

12. & 13. @scottishly yeah... Imagine how my eyes were crying with rainbows while playing their household and editing photos. ;) Anyway, SORRY! :D

14. @alienpod no? Alfie’s definitely an ogre. :D You haven’t seen how she was playing with a teddy. :D Also I was playing Dragon Age. I can tell. :D

15. @littleblondesim I know! I’m sure that later on Alfie will be cute as hell though. :)

16. @saartje77 thank you! Elliott was supoosed to be some kind of Don Lothario in my game, but... I guess he lacks a bit of personality. Propably will change his features later. Maybe he is too cute?

17. @littleblondesim thanks! I love how Dawn’s nose came out. :) Also I think of her like as lost cute little baby sister of Dina and Nina Caliente. :D

18. @scottishly <3

19. @nuttydazesublime my pleasure. :)

20. @littleblondesim *hearts* :)

21. @yuuzhan thanks! Bea was supposed to be a witch, so imagine how cute she is with a cat. :)
