James trying to convince himself that this build is better than the original "I think that looks alright.... YEAH!"
haven't watched the video yet and I can hear that
classic James
Astrid hahah same
James’ cologne is called delusion
Basically 😂
Why does the teen room sound like it’s for the main character of an indie coming of age film
It does! It even looks like a main character might live inside.
Bauer Gurke they just want to escape this town where nobody understands them and go to the big city
That would actually be such a cool storyline for a let's play
Cole Sprouse definitley plays the character too!
There's definitely a tense scene of them on their balcony
This should be series!!! Where you "fix up" your old sims builds into the sims 4
Yeah
How wholesome and adorable is James geeking over his new website? It makes me extra proud of him, awesome job!
Came here to say the exact same thing. I love it
@@jaymoneyyy110 Since when liking The Sims makes someone a gamer? Please, go geek over making more money and impressing "fake gamer girls" like me somewhere else 😘
@@jaymoneyyy110 don't worry about that since we'll never be impressed with you
@@jaymoneyyy110 james wasn't trying to impress anyone he's just proud of his work he's also dating deli so I'm sure he doesn't want attention from "fake gamer girls" anddd also he doesn't even make money from the site.
@@jaymoneyyy110 yet you have a sims pfp....
Love that the first thing his generator throws to his face is the My First Pet Stuff Pack 😅
I feel truly blessed to have been greeted by Bowser’s little tail wag this morning 🥰❤️
Honestly the highlight of the video
The old kitchen kind of looks like a movie set kitchen that isn’t quite finished bc it’s fake if that makes any sense 😂
The roof problem had me thinking of lilsimsie where she uses two roof pieces to get rid of the overhang
That’s what I was thinking too x
I thought the same.
I was thinking that the whole time
kayla its such a great builder, she its just so perfectionist
also the lack of outdoor decoration, those really make the house look more finnish
-- Today on Sims HGTV --
Homeowners: We want the living room extended, and the attic, and we want to add a fireplace, and a new deck, and it needs to be fully furnished.
James: And what's your budget?
Homeowners: $20,000
James: That's not happening.
“How would you get anything into this room?” ... James, have you ever heard of IKEA?😂😂😂
How would the double mattress get up there though?
James Turner Mattress in a box: foam mattresses.
@@JamesTurnerYT My double mattress was delivered in a box, so not sure what the problem is 🙃
My most recent mattress was delivered rolled up, as strange as that sounds lol
@@JamesTurnerYT Rolled up in a box! They come vacuum packed now, so much easier!
james: its boring that its just yellow and white and brick
every swedish house: ???excuse me???
Hej! I'm from sweden too, Skåne 😊✌
as a fellow swede i’m also offended😂
Honestly lmao I was wondering why this seemed so homey to me
Karolin S Skåne gang!
That's literally my house LMAO, Sundsvall
His terrible house is what I couldn't even build on steroids.
the longer james spent on this build the more he tried to convince himself he liked it lmao, this house is giving him stolkholm syndrome
More like Stolkhouse Syndrome, amirite?
I knew when he did the pack randomizer he was going to get "The Pack" lol
someone recreate the original house and put it on the gallery so we can see what other people would do to fix it, that would be so fun, make it like a challenge or something
Bowser whining for James' attention after HE left the room is too funny 😂
the sims team: there you go, we finally have given you ladders
Semaj: ok, but can we have pull down ladders now?
Miss "BECAUSE IM NOT AN IDIOT" after every single action
The teen who lives in that room sounds like they would leave me on read and also ask if I had read Catcher in the Rye
the ACCURACY lmao
"my taste in music is so.. underground- u know? ever heard of tame impala?"
For James:
*THE ULTIMATE SIMS BUILD CHALLENGE*
Rules: You must build a house for 8 sims, it can not end up looking like a box (or rectangle) and must include at least one toddler room, one child room, and one teen oriented room (use your imagination as to what that entails as far as decorations and uses are concerned). Each of those *must* be separate rooms. Your build has a total budget of $100,000-$300,000 simoleons (it must cost a minimum of $100,00 but cannot exceed $300,000) This does not include the cost of the lot which can be over budget if desired (as in the build ends up being $300,000 but the lot puts it closer to say $320,000 or something).
Before starting the build, you must decide which packs you will use. You are allowed to use the base game and ONE expansion pack, ONE game pack, and TWO stuff packs. All of which must be chosen through a random generator.
For each room you must spin a wheel to determine what colour to use. You may only use that colour for the entirety of the room (with the exception of bathroom or kitchen material that do not exist in said colour at which point you may use the colour you feel is closest. And doors/windows may be of normal colour and are excluded from the rules of the colour portion of this challenge). You may *not* use the colours White, Black, or Brown on the inside of the house (except as mentioned above; doors and windows).
When the colour is chosen every item in that room must be made either entirely by or the majority of it is that specific colour.
**If you end up using the laundry day pack you must include a laundry room and out door wash bucket and clothes line
**If using seasons you must include a garden, fireplace, and thermostat
**If using vampires, at least one coffin must be included and the build must have a basement or attic it can be placed in
**If using island living you must place the build by a body of water
**If using cats and dogs the build must be pet friendly and include items for both cats and dogs (if drawn you can build a house for six sims instead of eight)
**If using movie hangout a space must be allotted for an indoor or outdoor movie theatre with a screen and enough chairs for the sims living in the house (so 8)
You have to have a bin in the kitchen as well (don’t forget the bin).
Hope you see this, I think this could be really fun while simultaneously challenging!!
Great idea
We have to get this high up so he can see!!
Grate idea. I will do it when my l buy a new laptop because now my laptop it s broke, bur i made a screenshot and i will try this. If i manage to do it i will say something.
Great idea! I’m going to try it!
If I had enough packs for this I would definitely try this! Great idea! 😊
I honestly love James' attention to detail and realism! Most sims builds are super idealistic versions of houses, this is super realist! real houses have puzzle-like floor plans, especially when you consider renos on a budget to accommodate a child's or teen's bedroom
"Just at some point in the last 12 years, someone renovated it. And by someone and in the last 12 years, I mean me and I mean right now."
😂😂😂 well, yeah James. Obviously.
I like that you can honestly tell: he never watched Lilsimsie build tutorials:D
When I saw the roof I immediately saw Kayak changing it 😂
Lol I exactly thought of Kelly
@@larissaluna3616 Samee
@@anirudhmuthusamy lol same
But he did do cover your mistakes with trees🤣
I much prefer build videos like this over the time-lapsed ones. Seeing the process and watching how your brain works during the process is so fascinating to me
What you did at 15:21 is very common where I live, we always have a little ally/hall for the coats and shoes before entering other rooms so I always build those in my build, and that room often has the stairs as well irl
It’s actually called a vestibule. Many older houses have them to reduce a change in temperature when people open the door when it’s cold and hot. Newer houses today use them to put less strain on heating cooling costs. Adds a bit of realism. :)
@@ultrapokesim interesting!! Is that the same thing as a foyé (foyer)?
@@ultrapokesim damn you learn something every day!! Vestibule, clever! I thought it always makes sense to take shoes/coats off there etc but the heat makes a lot of sense
You could have a rags to riches type series where they started with a "bad" sims 2 house and have to update it
whenever you post something like this i load up my game and build the house alongside you. i'm terrible at building so it helps me learn!! also the website looks great, nice job!
Omg that's a great idea! I love building but I feel like I'm so bad at it!
Whenever I have that weird roof thing I just do a double roof. Have one without the eaves where it connects to the other roof and one with the eaves only at the front bit. I hope that makes sense 🤦🏻♀️
xLaraLeex I was looking if someone tried to explain it. He should just check out lilsimsie’s building tips vids
He didn’t do any of that because he was think for a realistic renovation (until he added a lot onto the house 😂) and also what they could do in sims 2. For example, no move objects.
Cactus _ No he didn’t, he was annoyed and he’s done the exact thing on other builds because he hasn’t figured out how to do it, and I do LOVE James building videos, but I think that someone who used to put out tutorials would want to figure out the ins and outs of building in the game that is his livelihood.
Cactus _ I’ve seen him add onto builds to avoid that weird roof thing in the past though. Whatever the case, I know it took me longer than it should have to figure out that roofing trick, so maybe it helped someone else.
Someone show this man how to fix the roof problem!
No one:
James every time he starts to build:
"Should I make it a shack?"
James! They've added this cool new feature called RUGS xD it looks so empty!
This would make a pretty cool build series. Sims 4 House Flipping or something. The first season could be your old sims builds but I could also see you fixing homes off the gallery in the future
The part with Bowser is everything
I like how James has to place the fireplace next to the chimney and place tiles around it for safety. Just because it's a game, doesn't mean it doesn't need to make sense. I do the same thing when playing the game, too 😂😂😂
James’ excitement about his website is the most adorable thing ever lol
James: fixing my sims 2 build
James: it's actually gonna look worse in the sims 4
🤣🤣🤣
When your city has rules and won't let you tear down a house and rebuild, so you keep one wall and rebuild the rest of it and call it a remodel. That is what this is lol.
To get furnitures up the stairs you would have to have only ikea furnitures cus then you were to build them up in the attic. So you just have to pull the still up there, which isn’t the hardest thing 👍🏿
There are lots of stores like that not just Ikea xd
No way!!!! I just bought a new dresser from Ikea and it came in three VERY HEAVY-ASS boxes!!!! My sister and I could barely get them up the stairs and I can't even IMAGINE trying to drag them up a ladder!!!!!!! LOLLL
you would get a couple ladders and a few friends and take the furniture into the backyard and lift it up and over the railing onto the balcony.
That still wouldnr work, for example how desk lid would come in a full piece, no way itd fit through the stair hole, through a window it could but my desk is 1.5m X 1.5m, it was hell to fit in my room through a door let alone a window, the only viable solution is what James did really
Aww 🥰 James looked like every parent doing home office in quarantine when their kid wants attention 🐕 Hi Bowser 🐶💕
James is such a nerd in the most adorable way.
James you do know, that people can like... assemble the bed upstairs? You don't have to crane the bed through the glass door pre-assembled :D
Right? And you could curl just the mattress if you had someone either pulling or pushing it up.
I love that it looks like they've spend all the money renewing the kitchen plus adding the attic that the living room looks like "let's just use what we have and deal with this after"
Bowser appearing totally made my day! And that little whine, where you then put down the green screen, 😍 (as a dog mom my first thought is that the precious lionboy had to use the potty)
Honestly I genuinely love this house!! It has so much personality and actually somewhat realistic. Nice job James 👍☺️
This is fun, you should do more of these. It’s interesting to see how well or badly things translate across different versions of the game. Also looking at your old builds is fun.
I am in LOVE with the thought and design of that teen's room. When he redid the windows because the bed would never fit up there, I just lost it. That's amazing how much detail you think of
Video idea! Your subscribers (😊) upload half finished builds to the gallery with a # and you fix or finish them! X
To validate you James: The addition on the house you added is so spot on. I've seen a lot of houses around the neighborhood who have these very obvious additions. Sometimes they do have different materials than the rest and sometimes it's completely different. I love that you added the balcony on the addition and turned the back into more of a patio than a deck. It looks nicer.
I love the idea of recreating the build to look like it’s been renovated as the years went by, instead of making it exactly the same as in sims 2. As a sims fan who’s been playing the game ever since sims 2 came out I found this super cute 🥺
I really liked this renovation James! It's like the original owners of ts2 house were starting a family and recently had a baby. That very same baby is the one using the bedroom upstairs now, entering his teenage years. And that's why the house is fully renovated - it's also been 12 years for this family :)
Men Oh men, Can you make again the Random Packs Challenge in every part of the house. Mansion edition.
It makes me sad to see less and less people calling him “Semaj.”
😭
Why?
My favorite thing about this is imagining that it was a starter house when you built it in the good ol' days, but as the owner(s) got older and had a kid they kinda expanded it a little bit over time. And that's how it looks nowadays. I really like that thought. So cool to see!
8:06 James apparently has never watched a lilsimsie tutorial on roofs xD
Bowser got his own theme song, I like that
I feel like this house has been "renovated" about 12 times and now no one actually knows how to make it work.
The 70’s music makes the video 10/10!, 💜💜💜💜. I love how happy you are now James...Deli and Bowser are good for your soul!
nobody:
james everytime after he says something funny: *pAaaAaAAh*
I've seen houses in real life with fireplaces like that. They were centered for heating the house, not as decoration. This came across as the type of house you'd expect to find while house hunting. In my old house the refrigerator was on the porch. The master closet was in the hallway.
Thank you!! For making an upstairs. Because it is like you said: it doesn't make sense to have dormers without an attic or upstairs! I hate it when dormers are used for show, nobody IRL would pay that much, just because it looks better.
And if someone ever wonders about what to do to fill it: boxes! Christmas decorations or random boxes, every house has them. Or a lil dresser, people have a lot of clothes they like hanging on to. Maybe old baby clothes or smth.
That's always what I use it for!! I know the sims have household inventories but once I don't need to use certain objects like xmas trees or present piles etc, I put them up in the attic! Feels way more accurate to life and I love it! :)
It it is (or once was) a functional fireplace, it's completely fine for it to be in a bedroom. In a cold climate pre-central heating you would want a fireplace in your bedroom. Decorative fireplaces are usually in the livingroom but the chimney implies it was once functional.
Alternate title “James Turner roasting American suburban homes for 29 minutes”
Exactly. I know so many homes that look like this. My old home looked like this when we renovated and added a patio in the back in 2006.
Tbh as a teen I would’ve loved that attic bedroom! The privacy! That balcony! It’s a moody teen’s dream
24:37 There's hanging plants in debug, that's what I use since I don't have nifty knitting
Honestly, getting notifications from new videos is the only highlight of my day, been missing this. Hope you're doing alright in your quarantine, much love from Brazil
I love the approach of updating the house based off if sims added additions! Felt so real!
OMG THAT "HIIII" TAIL WAG FROM BOWSER
I AM HAPPY NOW.
Oh yea also nice house and website and whatever.
B O W S E R.
I love how it went from bad, to worst, to actually something that looks really good! The furniture brought it to life 😂
This was such a great video to watch!!! You looked so happy recreating your builds. I hope you make more videos like this!
I really enjoyed this. I've missed your energy these last few weeks. It would be awesome if you made this a whole mini series. Redoing builds from previous Sims years and room or house builds from when Sims 4 first came out and everything was base game.
I wish he could use the secret bookcase door for the ladder
That’s what I was thinking too!! It would’ve been a secret attic.
I swear James' reaction everytime he sees anything that even relates to My First Pet Stuff is the best thing
I’d love to watch you do more of these! It was so fun to watch you work this like a puzzle.
I like how he lied to himself the whole time throughout this reno. Lmao
This house feels really realistic honestly and I really like it! I’d totally play in this house!!
I love watching his builds cause they are soothing but also humorous and entertaining, I've been missing them recently but love the eco lifestyle LP
I LOVED the editing style of this video! So entertaining, so fun.
This is such a great video idea. I'd love to see more like this.

* shocked pikachu face *
"I'm just having fun..."
That's all that matters, boy!
Hi, Bowser!
You should be excited with the whole website thing. You did a great job. Good on you, James!
The empty dormer could have a small desk for the person to write in a journal or do homework, or a stereo or small jukebox. It's always nice to have a desk in front of a window.
Great job on this reno. It's the evolution of a home from starter to having had a family living and growing in it for 12 years
I love the imperfection of this build!! the spice! the personality !
I tried your randomizer for the first time and I really like it! Aesthetically pleasing and very useful!
I love this house so much, you amaze me every time, I swear! I feel like I've seen houses like this before
So happy to see another build video!!! Also Happy that you seemed to really enjoy it! 🥰
Really enjoyed this video and the realism of the house. Most of houses in the sims just doesn’t look real. Please do more of these!
Honestly I would play with this house. I like the idea of having a more closed-in floor plan. That's realistic, as is the clutter. It actually did come together really well. I want that teen room man.
This was so delightful to watch. You did a wonderful job, really enjoyed watching this :)
please do more of these! really cool to see u redo ur old builds
I love this style of house build video. It'd be cool to see this kind of video again
James it looks awesome I'm gonna download it once it's at the gallery. I've been looking for a family home so this one will do :)
I think the house looks very realistic. The way you added onto the house in a way people would do in reallife, on a budget, and the inside also looks like it would be furnished if it was a real house and not so much a sims house, where you can choose whatever and make it match perfectly.
For example, in the bedroom the wooden bed and bedside table don't match the white wardrobe at all (imo), or the little cabinet with the radio in the living room with the study space next to it. It's just a big reallife style for me and i really like it! I don't see a lot of those builds in the sims a lot and i feel like, you can really pull that kind of style off! I would never furnish a house that way, but that's why i love watching your videos. New ideas, new styles which i would never think of! :)
I _really_ like this build. It it so realistic. I have seen so many houses like this in my home country, Finland. The floorplan is so good, also finally a mudroom/hallway, yay!
Great job on your website, looks awesome! Enjoyed your video as always keep up the good work!😊
have missed your build so much, it was nice to see another one
I love when Bowser shows up in their videos he's so floofy and has so much personality
Great job! Would've been nice to see the terrain level tool for back to front 'cos I'm such a novice at this, it would've been a great tip for me. Loving your work as ever.
I love this its creative and different from other house totally going to download it
Love these types of videos! Loving the new website too! Looking forward to the first Deli+James video.
I usually deal with the roof overhang issue by using 2 roof pieces - overhang in the front, no overhang in the back. This was fun to watch!
