this video came across my recommended. so of course on a whim i decide to make a save on the spot and spend 9 hours last night on half of willow creek 😭 i haven’t had this much fun in the sims in forever 😭
this has inspired me to try make my own save! this is how i used to play with my littlest pet shops as a kid - i would set up the town with my mlp and lps houses, put each family in a home, create dynamics and lore in my head - and then pack them all up 😆
i'm making my own save file right now and am deep, deep into it and OMG what i would give to go back in time and watch this !!! so much foresight queen omg
I just started my first save file based off empty worlds (also Srsly's) and this is so so helpful. I'm easily overwhelmed by such a large project (and impatient) that I really need to get organized. You gave me a lot of great ideas and a place to start. I make sims and decorate but cannot build to save my life. I have to depend on the kindness of strangers sharing their creations! Your builds look amazing, they do look realistic. Great job. Would love to see occasional updates. Thanks for posting this video. 🙂
I just woke up and always try to watch something when I get ready, I’m going through some dark stuff rn and honestly haven’t been getting out of bed or doing anything, but this video has just inspired me to completely redo my worlds, I’m glad I came across it as even tho it’s just sitting here, it’s a start 🖤
You’ve got this! Things get tough sometimes, but it’s the little things in life that make it worth it! Make those worlds, drink that tea, pet that animal! You deserve the comfort and support! Wishing you the best in your journey to healing! ❤️🩹
I really like the idea of this video! I hope that in future videos, while you progress with the save file, you continue to share that with us. I find it interesting not only to see the finished product but also the process. I think it also motivates us to create our own save file.
You single handedly reignited my love for sims! I love seeing your process and hearing your thinking process- your speed builds are also great to sleep to 😇
I have a save file I'm building too- when I say building though it's a combination of my own builds and then ones from the gallery. My aim is to create a base file for future saves which really compliments my gameplay style- all lots placed will be also cohesive in appearance with others placed in that neighbourhood and create a variety of lots types amongst the worlds. I like some of your ideas!
i LOVE your realistic basegame home! my sims family started there, also on crick cabana. thank you so much for it ❤️ can't wait to play in more of your builds ❤️
I've wanted to do this for ages but I'm not really a builder so Im gonna go and download all of the stuff you've built, so thank you! I love your ideas
this gives me idea to make a Pinterest board for each world because ngl I hate to see different aesthetic for each lots in the neighbourhoods lol tysm!
I have been wanting to start my own save file from scratch but it’s so overwhelming and I never know how or where to start. Thank u for this vid.❤ love ur videos and the way u explain and your style. Thank u🙏
The timing of seeing this vid is uncanny, i decided literally yesterday to try my hand at a custom savefile 🧐 i suck at building so this is gonna be a real test of persistance but also the best practice i could get i suppose 🤣 your builds look gorgeous, i‘m def gonna have to take a closer look and hopefully pick up some tips and tricks~
Great video! This was really helpful as I'm trying to build a save! PS: 15:28 if you're going for a more American approach, for the house names based on roads I would recommend naming them something like "123 Founders RD" for a more realistic approach instead of "Founders RD 123" (in my experience at least).
I really enjoyed this video - thank you for sharing. Building a savefile is such a huge project and I love getting other simmers take on how they are tackling it. Community lots are what always trip me up. I think its because I've looked at their placement for so long I forget I don't have to put them in the same place and can even change the lot type to be something different 😅 - I love your idea for using the park for the Mayors house.
As much as I use Pinterest, it never occurred to me, that I could make boards for my world saves😭😭 totally doing this since I’m rebuilding every world based on seasons!!
I'm new to save file stuff but this concept reminds me so much of Animal Crossing hahah so much investing in the little details but I really like the idea this has def motivated me!
oooo ive always wanted to do this myself. tbh i can't see myself doing every single world I have 😭but honestly it might be a fun thing to do when im bored!!!!
Your voice is just so soothing. I’m so glad I found your channel! I looked up starting up your own save file because I’m wanting to start my own tonight!
Yes!! I have wished you'll make a video like this. I also have been watching Sillee's content a lot. I would love to see your savefile updates! I love these type of videos despite never planning on downloading any of the saves (i don't have that many packs)
awe im glad you enjoyed watching!! i totslly get the not downloading ive struggled with that for other saves , i wanna do a basegame only one at some point!
I really loved your voice, it's super relaxing. Thank you very much for your video, I hope you share with us in the future how you are doing with your Safe File, I have been doing one for more than a year and it is quite heavy. You have one more subscriber and now let's watch the video of your fourplex for Willow Creek
great video! thanks for the shout in the intro 🥰 i also love how you have your map pic with handwritten notes and the little key lol that looks so cute!!
hell ye i havent played the game in like a year im watching this while organizing my mods folder, but im feeling super inspired to start a new save. also if you open your save in sims 4 studio and scroll to game save data theres a section called neighborhoods you can modify the names of the neigbourhoods and you can have custom names for the areas (its safe as long as you dont edit the id numbers). i would love if i could change the background images so the save could truly be custom, without it changing all of them
i was JUST about to go looking for a video like this because I want to get into creating for the game and getting better with builds, so THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! 😊 only question i have is where do you originally build the houses and how do you add them to your gallery to be able to place them in your save file?
i just build them in new game and then when im done with them i hit the little folder icon on the top UI bar in build mode and upload them to the gallery that way! After that I take them from the gallery and put them into my save will all the lots cleared. Hope that makes sense!
I’m in the throes of winter depression, but your cozy videos can bring a bit of light into the loooooong scandinavian night😌 What app did you use to draw on the world map?
This is great, I'm about to start my own in combination with a few mods to enable more shops on lots and home regions (plus increasing sim limits for zones.) Ngl if you play with MCCC, increasing the sim allowance was one of the best things I ever did, though I wish it could be applied per lot. (I set it to base 60, which is fine for the big nightclubs and overworld zones, but the tiny cafes and bars bug out).
this is awesome thank you for sharing! does anyone know how to edit off of lots in worlds? like the background stuff! can you add that into your next save file diaries video?!
i haven't really messed around with that before but the lovely youtuber Wolfxdreamer has some videos where they edit stuff off the lots for their save file!
ok rlly late but this has like inspired me to do this and I dont even have sims lmao. also odd thing to add but streets that loop, like founders does are called crescents or cres. as an abbreviation. However roads that are close to bodies of water are called Runs. For high income area's I'd use Drive(dr) because they are used for privately owned roads that lead to residential properties. For middle income, there is supposed to be atleast one farmhouse, so I would use Boulevard(Blvd) because this is used for roads with trees along the sides, but there is an apartment which means it may be more urban so I would suggest Lane seeing as Lane is used for roads without medians and I have seen apartments on Lanes. sorry for the bigass paragraph btw xx
@@aluhhsim after finishing this video I actually started. I’m on my 3rd build and I feel like I unlocked a hidden talent. For some reason my building just got so good! As I build I actually have your videos playing in the back ground. It helps so much. My one problem now is floor plans, still struggling so much with them but so far I’ve been having so much fun and it’s all thanks to you 🩷
they're just live edit fences from base game :) i have the tips on how to get access to the live edit menu at the bottom of my description, after you do those steps just search DEBUG in the menu and then scroll to find them :)
Thank you this was really helpful. I am considering making a base game (I only have base game) no CC save file. My question is; I have CC and mods, the mods being MCCC and Lumpinou and other misc mods that I use for my personal gameplay. Will having them in affect my save file I intend to make even if I do not use the CC? I would probably use the MCCC to make the relationships. I haven't ever done anything like this before so It's very daunting for me and I've only become confident with the general gameplay recently as I haven't had the game that long.
i dont think mods like that should affect the save - as long as u dont use them to alter anything the game cant natural do (like making households more then 8 sims etc) but using them to make relationships should be fine!
Hey i have a question, i'm trying to build a save file of my own and create lore through family trees, is there a way to instantly kill sims / turn them into ghosts? using mccc i have to actually press play and wait for the sims to die, but if i do this way the time will pass and i don't want that :( i could also do that and adjust time using ui cheats but it's kinda buggy.... basically i want to set up all families and lots and still be 8am of a sunday whenever i start playing it in the future, with no autonomy development. is that possible in any way or should i just give up on setting up deceased sims?
hmmmm there hasnt really been way that ive found to do all that without passing time. But if you go into settings you can turn off autonomy for all the sims (even the ones you arent playing), i think its in the gameplay section, that way the sims wont do anything even as time passes. Alternatively you could bring all the sims you want to get rid of to one lot so you can do more than one at a time while time passes, if that makes sense!
There's a generation mod where you can kill off sims with no moodlets for the alive sims, I can't remember the name but if you search up generations mod on google, it should be the first one. I have it in my game and it's awesome, you can also generate families for sims you created before but don't want to go through the hassle of creating grandparents and such, you can also match the family's genetics so they all look similar!
@@jaylani427 hey quick update! the name of the mod is Life manager, it would be perfect for what i need as it generates multiple generations for family trees and it even gives me the gravestones, the only issue is that if i randomize a dead parent, it won't let me change their names 🥲that doesn't fully work for me as i'm trying to recreate some familes from previous games, BUT it is nice to also have family trees for random sims in ts4, so thanks for the tip! for the ones i need specific names i will just create the sim and kill with mccc using death by cowplant, i found out this one just vanish the sim even if the game is paused!
Hey, amazing video! I've tried doing this before, but I ran into a problem with the werewolf packs. Since the townies are no longer there, there's no one to invite sims into the packs, and it become unplayable. You can't just download the original pack townies from the gallary either cus they're not automatically in the werewolf packs. Do you know any way to fix this issue?
ive never done any werewolves gameplay so sadly im a lost cause for this🙁 im sure there is a save version where all the families are there but the lots are removed so you could try searching for that maybe?
Does the game still generate sims when you do this? Or I see you still have the homes for the people who already live so how do you keep them from moving in as your editing the save?
it should be only the sims you place but if there arent enough sims in your world the game generates them to fill certain slots like bartenders at community lots for example!
This may sound like a dumb question but i have map replacements with some of my maps, would i have to get rid of my map replacements to download the srslys boank save?
not a dumb question at all! you shouldn't have to get rid of the map replacements since those are just aesthetic, the blank save is just like any new save you would start just without the orginal lots - so you should be good! i can't confirm it for sure because i've never used map replacements but im 99% sure you can do both!
@@aluhhsim maybe only the ones you feel inspired to do? I started editing the townies in my own save and tweaking their lore a bit more to make them more interesting. For example my Bob and Eliza will have had a child as teens now they have to live in an apartment in the basement of Eliza's parents.
Ive been having that issue with one of my saves as well where it crashes everytime i play it. Sadly your save might just have a bug or something, cause you dont need the worlds built to play. wish i could be more help🫶
Two notes for your naming. House numbers are typically before the street name in real life. Also, a foundry is an industrial area, often linked to blacksmithing or other steel manufacture. Nothing relater to founders of an area.
Oh, this is so helpful!! Ive been doing my own sims file, it's taking forever but your tips make so much sense, why didn't I think about that? Idk lol I'll be checking your videos and see if you have more with tips. I've subscribed to your channel too! Have a wonderful day
I'm confused about the game's save modes and create New Game. If I create a new family my older characters/family is lost/gone from the game. But if I create new game the previous characters and lot/house I build for them is gone. Can someone please explain to me how this new concept (for me) works? I'm so confused.
Maybe ive been staring at my computer too long or something but i go to the link and i dont know where to download, it doesnt go automatically and i see the venue changes one but not the blank link to download pls help
You put the names of the house in the names of the family. The lots with family have two buttons for title and description, one is the family name and info the other the lot name and info.
I am struggling with my save, had my main story since I got sims4 years ago and now I cannot get this continue, somehow got stucked, all new stories ideas are good for like 1 day of simming
this video came across my recommended. so of course on a whim i decide to make a save on the spot and spend 9 hours last night on half of willow creek 😭 i haven’t had this much fun in the sims in forever 😭
that makes me so happy, im so glad!!!!

omg i used to do the same thing with barbies!!! brings me so much joy🩷
Sims is just the adult version of playing babies for me. @@aluhhsim
omg i'm pmsing and your videos are the only ones i can watch without becoming irrationally violent
pls thats so real😭😭 im honoured to be the chosen one LOL

This cracked me up 😂
Soooo real
Relatable T-T
i'm making my own save file right now and am deep, deep into it and OMG what i would give to go back in time and watch this !!! so much foresight queen omg
LOL im glad i had some new tips for you !
Keep going you got this! Took me over a year to finish!
I just started my first save file based off empty worlds (also Srsly's) and this is so so helpful. I'm easily overwhelmed by such a large project (and impatient) that I really need to get organized.

Glad you’re still here ❤
I really like the idea of this video! I hope that in future videos, while you progress with the save file, you continue to share that with us. I find it interesting not only to see the finished product but also the process. I think it also motivates us to create our own save file.
awe im glad you like this format ill definitely keep it in mind for the future!!🫶
I just thought id comment incase you didnt realise but the description is about a speedbuild!!
haha thank you! i actually had this as a scheduled post and forgot to change the description before it went up😭😭
You single handedly reignited my love for sims! I love seeing your process and hearing your thinking process- your speed builds are also great to sleep to 😇
that is such a sweet comment thank you! i always love to know my videos are good to sleep too, it warms my heart!
15:52 If you played older sims games it might be fun to name some streets after worlds/neighborhoods in older sims games.
oh thats a super cute idea i might do just that!!🫶
Save file videos and town lore are my absolute favs !! Can't wait to see the update and other worlds too.
ahh yay!! i cant wait to share it!
I have a save file I'm building too- when I say building though it's a combination of my own builds and then ones from the gallery.

yessss i love making saves like that too!! i always wanna have a go to one for gameplay :)
i LOVE your realistic basegame home! my sims family started there, also on crick cabana. thank you so much for it ❤️ can't wait to play in more of your builds ❤️
that makes me unbelievably happy!! thank you for playing in them😊
I've wanted to do this for ages but I'm not really a builder so Im gonna go and download all of the stuff you've built, so thank you! I love your ideas
Please make more videos like this!! I never thought about playing like this and I’d love to see more behind the scenes!!
aw will do!!!
I’d love if you made a playlist for speedbuilds that you’re putting into the save! Totally wanna keep up with this process.
i can def do that for you!
Omgggg I would love an update it's so interesting to see your creative process behind this big project!! 🎀🎀🎀🎀
yesss ive been meaning to make one! just trying to figure out what to include in it :)
@aluhhsim maybe your inspo hunting process, mapping of lots, house designing or Sim makeovers could be some ideas?
this gives me idea to make a Pinterest board for each world because ngl I hate to see different aesthetic for each lots in the neighbourhoods lol tysm!
omg same here it bugs me so much😭 pinterest boards are great for planning it out
I have been wanting to start my own save file from scratch but it’s so overwhelming and I never know how or where to start. Thank u for this vid.❤ love ur videos and the way u explain and your style. Thank u🙏
awe you are most welcome! good luck with your save!!
The timing of seeing this vid is uncanny, i decided literally yesterday to try my hand at a custom savefile 🧐 i suck at building so this is gonna be a real test of persistance but also the best practice i could get i suppose 🤣 your builds look gorgeous, i‘m def gonna have to take a closer look and hopefully pick up some tips and tricks~

I really enjoyed this video - thank you for sharing. Building a savefile is such a huge project and I love getting other simmers take on how they are tackling it. Community lots are what always trip me up. I think its because I've looked at their placement for so long I forget I don't have to put them in the same place and can even change the lot type to be something different 😅 - I love your idea for using the park for the Mayors house.
awe thank you!!! yeah switching community lots to residential always feels so wrong LOL
As much as I use Pinterest, it never occurred to me, that I could make boards for my world saves😭😭 totally doing this since I’m rebuilding every world based on seasons!!
i looooove this video and your entire vibe, i really hope you can make a part 2
I love this sm. lyk, for naming lots that already have sims living on it you have to click the edit lot name, instead of edit household name!
ohhhh that makes sense ty!!
I'm new to save file stuff but this concept reminds me so much of Animal Crossing hahah so much investing in the little details but I really like the idea this has def motivated me!
i love animal crossing!!
YIPEEE I love save files videos!!!!❤
eeee yay!!!!
same
oooo ive always wanted to do this myself. tbh i can't see myself doing every single world I have 😭but honestly it might be a fun thing to do when im bored!!!!

Hardest thing is to delete sims 4 generated npc’s 🤮
So for my save I downloaded npc from the gallery and hopefully that will help !
So glad this video was recommended for me! Looks like so much fun.
awe😊😊
hell ye i havent played the game in like a year im watching this while organizing my mods folder, but im feeling super inspired to start a new save.
also if you open your save in sims 4 studio and scroll to game save data theres a section called neighborhoods you can modify the names of the neigbourhoods and you can have custom names for the areas (its safe as long as you dont edit the id numbers). i would love if i could change the background images so the save could truly be custom, without it changing all of them

i was JUST about to go looking for a video like this because I want to get into creating for the game and getting better with builds, so THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! 😊 only question i have is where do you originally build the houses and how do you add them to your gallery to be able to place them in your save file?

@aluhhsim yes that does, thanks so much!
OH MY GOSH! I will need to save my lots and do this!
i am guilty of always forgetting to save my lots! so satisfying to place them all down in a fresh world tho :)
This was super helpfull! I play on xbox though, so I went to gallery and found it!!
I’m in the throes of winter depression, but your cozy videos can bring a bit of light into the loooooong scandinavian night😌 What app did you use to draw on the world map?
i used procreate on my ipad! sadly its not a free program but it is a one time fee. I'm sure you could find a free app that does the same thing tho :)
THANK YOU FOR THIS IVE BEEN WONDERING HOW PEOPLE DO IT 😭
LOL glad to be of assistance:)
This is great, I'm about to start my own in combination with a few mods to enable more shops on lots and home regions (plus increasing sim limits for zones.)
Ngl if you play with MCCC, increasing the sim allowance was one of the best things I ever did, though I wish it could be applied per lot. (I set it to base 60, which is fine for the big nightclubs and overworld zones, but the tiny cafes and bars bug out).
ooo super good idea!!

I really enjoyed this video. Subscribed! 💕✨
awe welcome🩷
What packs would you reccomend for someone with a similar playstyle to yours? i have a few but im trying to get the top teir ones first 🙏🏼
probably cats and dogs, get together, growing together for starting. they are just basic and handy!
hmm probably cottage living, get together, cats and dogs and werewolves would be my top picks for building :)
this is awesome thank you for sharing! does anyone know how to edit off of lots in worlds? like the background stuff! can you add that into your next save file diaries video?!
i haven't really messed around with that before but the lovely youtuber Wolfxdreamer has some videos where they edit stuff off the lots for their save file!
I’m curious about the mayor's house, is it going to be a sims house or like a build that represents where the mayor would be? Like a public space
i was thinking a house for the actual sim, but i could probably do a combo lot since its such a big plot!
Aahhh this gave me so much motivation to make my own save file
YAY!!
I love this idea so much!
ok rlly late but this has like inspired me to do this and I dont even have sims lmao. also odd thing to add but streets that loop, like founders does are called crescents or cres. as an abbreviation.

the sims is free now so u can definitely do it!! also that was such cool info i had no clue about any of that ill def be using it tysm!!

I have it in my game and it's awesome, you can also generate families for sims you created before but don't want to go through the hassle of creating grandparents and such, you can also match the family's genetics so they all look similar!
@@jaylani427 hey quick update! the name of the mod is Life manager, it would be perfect for what i need as it generates multiple generations for family trees and it even gives me the gravestones, the only issue is that if i randomize a dead parent, it won't let me change their names 🥲that doesn't fully work for me as i'm trying to recreate some familes from previous games, BUT it is nice to also have family trees for random sims in ts4, so thanks for the tip! for the ones i need specific names i will just create the sim and kill with mccc using death by cowplant, i found out this one just vanish the sim even if the game is paused!
Thanks for this orange person. I like your swag
Hey, amazing video! I've tried doing this before, but I ran into a problem with the werewolf packs. Since the townies are no longer there, there's no one to invite sims into the packs, and it become unplayable. You can't just download the original pack townies from the gallary either cus they're not automatically in the werewolf packs. Do you know any way to fix this issue?
ive never done any werewolves gameplay so sadly im a lost cause for this🙁 im sure there is a save version where all the families are there but the lots are removed so you could try searching for that maybe?
will you be doing one of these for each world that you have? i’d love to see your ideas for like san myshuno and stuff
hopefully in the future if i can get those builds done i will! i do love decorating apartments so San Myshuno is definitely a possibility!
Does the game still generate sims when you do this? Or I see you still have the homes for the people who already live so how do you keep them from moving in as your editing the save?
hi i’m new! when you’re rebuilding a world, and play in it, are you only gonna encounter sims you’ve placed in this world or all sims from base game??
it should be only the sims you place but if there arent enough sims in your world the game generates them to fill certain slots like bartenders at community lots for example!
i fell asleep to this video last night😭
Yesss I love this!! ❤
This may sound like a dumb question but i have map replacements with some of my maps, would i have to get rid of my map replacements to download the srslys boank save?
not a dumb question at all! you shouldn't have to get rid of the map replacements since those are just aesthetic, the blank save is just like any new save you would start just without the orginal lots - so you should be good! i can't confirm it for sure because i've never used map replacements but im 99% sure you can do both!
@@aluhhsim omg thank you so much! Love your videos🫶🏽
@@deniseavage I can confirm that you do not have to get rid of your map replacement. They will work together just fine.
Question? have you moved all sims out of all of the neighborhoods or just doing this one ..one at a time?
with the srsly blank save it moves out the families for you so i didnt have to do it one by one
I'm also interested in seeing what you are going to do with the townies
do you think i should include all of them??🙈
@@aluhhsim maybe only the ones you feel inspired to do? I started editing the townies in my own save and tweaking their lore a bit more to make them more interesting. For example my Bob and Eliza will have had a child as teens now they have to live in an apartment in the basement of Eliza's parents.
I wish I could build so I could make my own save lol. But I can't build at all 😂
im sure youre much better then you think! its fun to make a save regardless of what the builds look like i think!
I want a follow up to this video so bad, i really want to see how they transform it!
i have a question, i play on ps4 and how do i do the save file?? i really want to do this but i still don’t understand. hoping you will see this
have you posted the video for the Gang leader building?? Can’t find it I’ve been looking for it😭😭
its the most recent one! :)
@@aluhhsim Thanks!!
Off topic, but what pc do you use? I play on console but absolutely hate base game so I've been thinking about getting one.
I downloaded the blank save and rebuilt oasis spring only and somehow can’t play with my sim. Does anyone know why?
hmmm is your game crashing and thats why you cant play or is it something else?
@@aluhhsim i can play with other save files so it’s not my game. I was wondering if all the worlds have to be built before I can play?
Ive been having that issue with one of my saves as well where it crashes everytime i play it. Sadly your save might just have a bug or something, cause you dont need the worlds built to play. wish i could be more help🫶
I’m building my own save file at the moment it’s so hard I went into it think it wouldn’t be that hard 😂 what a fool I was
haha its definitely a challenge hang in there!
Two notes for your naming. House numbers are typically before the street name in real life. Also, a foundry is an industrial area, often linked to blacksmithing or other steel manufacture. Nothing relater to founders of an area.
ooo noted ty!!
love it!
Oh, this is so helpful!! Ive been doing my own sims file, it's taking forever but your tips make so much sense, why didn't I think about that? Idk lol I'll be checking your videos and see if you have more with tips. I've subscribed to your channel too! Have a wonderful day
I'm confused about the game's save modes and create New Game. If I create a new family my older characters/family is lost/gone from the game. But if I create new game the previous characters and lot/house I build for them is gone. Can someone please explain to me how this new concept (for me) works? I'm so confused.
i downloaded this to make a save file but when i went in the world to build it says i dont have any custom content did i do somthing wrong😭
doing my own save file now thank u sm for this video!!
How do I add another background to the maps? I know I cant chabge the worls itself but I atleast want to change the map...can i overide it
im pretty sure if you search "sims 4 map overides/overlays" you should find something like what you're looking for :)
Hiii I just downloaded the sims 4 a week ago and I can’t find the mods file for my cc could you help me please?
Should be in your sims 4 folder. If it’s not there, just create one and title it “Mods”!
@ thankssss
Maybe ive been staring at my computer too long or something but i go to the link and i dont know where to download, it doesnt go automatically and i see the venue changes one but not the blank link to download pls help
You put the names of the house in the names of the family. The lots with family have two buttons for title and description, one is the family name and info the other the lot name and info.
Thank you
I am struggling with my save, had my main story since I got sims4 years ago and now I cannot get this continue, somehow got stucked, all new stories ideas are good for like 1 day of simming
