i would make the landing areas like my college does with each dorm building - they choose a theme so one of the buildings is themed the movie rio, another is nightmare before christmas (all year round, yes lol) etc. i just feel like it’d be so fun
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.
@@diremirebeeto me it always seemed like it would stay if you just use the first sim you get in cas. I swear every time I use the base sim I get the makeup always transfers to the other categories
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)
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.
@@josse13579nope! Ninja tweeted about it, it just somehow got left out of the patch notes along with something to do with radiators (guessing the vampires one might be functional now? That was not explained)
I also feel that this is unintentional or a glitch. You can see that this Window customization does not work as good as could asume. You can see it when you go to the Evergreen Harbour and try this out with one of the apartments there.. It does not work that good with the balconies for example..

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😭😭
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 don't recall which atm but one of the Gurus on Twitter said it was just something that got forgotten. It and I think the update to the Vampires radiators? That or the them reverting the stair railings thing cuz people complained about it.
@@MinDeRien2658 Yup. It's now back to how it used to be with the existing inside walls and such lol They're still working on a better fix but have said it's pretty tricky
Yeah because even with all the options, it's still so limited. Blinds for example act like black out blinds so unless you want to live in dreary darkness 24/7 it's pointless using them
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!
Same happened to me, when I bulldozed an apartment in San Myshuno, I tought this feature came with Twistedmexi's T.O.O.L mod but now I know what happened! I'm excited! :)
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.
@@sophiag612it was breaking the game. Because some of the NAPs in Evergreen Harbor can actually change the exteriors including windows of the apartments in Evergreen Harbor, there was a conflict that could happen when the balconies were editable that could cause a save breaking glitch. For the same reason, even though San Myshuno apartment windows are now editable, the Evergreen harbor apartment windows still are mostly not. I wish they would trouble shoot it more and at least let us “place in world” items from our inventory on the balconies since we can usually place those anywhere.
@@skyechimes658 I believe I have placed an easel from my sims inventory out there before, this was in the last few months so that may have been fixed. But tbh I feel like the “breaking” aspect just isn’t acceptable to me! To put out a game for $40 w such bug fixes really confuses me as a consumer of the games… I don’t think that’s a good excuse for EA!
@skyechimes658 hmmm one potential fix could be before the nap changes to exterior, shift all balcony items to the household inventory. I'm not familiar with the game's code though
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
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.
It was actually confirmed by SimGuruNinja, it's intentional and not a bug :) They just forgot to mention it in the patch notes. They also forgot to mention the radiator updates, so basically I think it was a case of "too much to mention, and we forgot".
@@brittknee1146 No, because if it wasn't intentional, then they wouldn't have originally planned to mention it in the notes in the first place. :) He said they missed it out along with the radiator update, therefore it must be intentional. If it wasn't, or a bug, he'd have probably said something along the lines of reporting it on the EA forums instead.
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
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
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 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.
Yeah I found this problem too. I think you're right that it's the shared wall against the hallway that counts as "not your property". I haven't tried but I expect the San Myshuno apartments are the same if you tried to put windows into the public hallways.
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
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!
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 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)
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
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 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
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!!!!!!
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!
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.
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.
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 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
Well they are the same type of apartment as the City Living ones so it would make sense lol I think it also lets you place items outside of the apartment too. Like in front of the doors going out of the building on the main lvl? I've seen people do that.
It does, but not if there's a balcony on the other side. So that balcony that was changable in early access and then wasn't when the pack came out, you can't change the window or door.
It does, but not for the living room windows. Those change based on certain gameplay aspects, so they're still fixed, but you can edit or change the bedroom windows!
It wasn't a bug, actually. It was part 1 of a fix to make them work better. But they reverted it since people were complaining. :) They're still working on making it work the way they want it to afaik though. The end goal to my understanding is the railings only disappearing if something is in the same spot as where they'd be.
Also in case anyone doesn't know, you CAN also change windows/exterior wallpaper for Evergreen Harbor apartments! Someone tested and they could do it, you only can't change the ones on the balconies... But we couldn't before either.
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...
ty lilsimsie for making a video on this so even more people are aware of the change. Now, if this was an accident, they can't change it back without upsetting the whole community.
i think this was a major bug from them failing to properly game test for rent, and was found by simmers who bought the pack. and since this is something simmers have been asking for for ages, the sims team realized pretending it was intentional would be better than trying to fix it. and i bet the reason the bug works like that is because the new pack is basically a slight refresh of city living, but released as a new pack for $$$.
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
Not gonna lie, I kinda love the fact that the apartments have some minor unchangeable things. Like the deleting the plaques or removing a lot trait. If that kind of lore building was introduced in other places like if some lots in Evergreen Harbor would be stuck with reduced recycling because they're near the water or something that'd be cool
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.
She hasn’t uploaded or streamed on the 11th or 12th bc she’s supporting the strike for ceasefire in Gaza. She’s mentioned this on her discord and instagram
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 😭😭😭
I think they deliberately don't say anything, just to surprise you creators, when they change something like this window edit. LOL Also the bedroom is just fine. It couldn't be any worse than the multi million mansion in downtown nyc, that was or still is for sale. A different decorator did one room each and they had a cotton candy room, or that is what the real estate tour guy called it. Apparently the owners main bedroom. Made you want to barf.
i feel like even if we can build more rentals, city living is still the ONLY city world. like, yes you could make all the lots in other worlds big city buildings, but we still cant make skyscrapers, we cant change everything around the lots being suburbs or country side in every. single. other world 😭 i really hope we get more city worlds its actually unreal tht only 1 out of 25 worlds is an actual city
I find it extremely ironic that we had to wait 8 years for an update where we can change windows. On the weekend where a new expansion pack is released. Extremely ironic
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
reminder to anyone who might not know, you can change the doors and other permanent stuff with the tool mod! that is what i've been using to edit windows before this update
Whenever I zoom out and see the apartments from outside, the near walls are cut off. I about never play with the walls fully visible. So, the apartment windows looking «weird» is not an issue. Another change that I accidentally discovered about a month before the last update : The possibility to change the outside walls of apartments. Not all of them, but, at least some of them. I was renovating an apartment when I noticed that I had changed the outside wall with the swath that I intended to use for an inside wall. Notice how, in this build, the outside walls have reverted to the bland naked drywall panelling... Those open industrial windows are set the wrong way. They slant inward while actual ones slant outward to prevent rain from coming in.
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
Deligracy is probably feeling real frustrated right now that she's like 99% done with her San Myshuno rebuilding

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!!!!!!
i felt all her emotions while she was building this apartment 😂 i was like "oh no" and then i ended up liking it
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!
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.
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?????
This is a GORGEOUS flat renovation!! Love it so much!
Hope little shrimpy is recovering well after his surgery ❤
I love your new profile picture!! You are so pretty ❤
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
The fact that this wasn't announced is completely incomprehensible to me oh my GOD
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 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
In the Feng apartment, there’s 2 windows you can’t delete because of the splendid view traits…
which immediately shows me that this is just a bug lmao
Sweetie, it's not a bug. SimGuruNinja tweeted about it, saying they forgot to mention it in the patch notes. @@paytolones
They 'forgot' to mention such a big update that has inconsistencies in how it's applied? Not buying it.
this apartment remodel turned out so cute!
I am crying from the thumbnail the video hasn’t even started yet but I am so happy
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 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
the way the sims has us so starved for features that this small change gets its own video 😭
I think this works on the apartments in evergreen harbor too- a very welcome addition 🎉
Well they are the same type of apartment as the City Living ones so it would make sense lol I think it also lets you place items outside of the apartment too. Like in front of the doors going out of the building on the main lvl? I've seen people do that.
It does, but not if there's a balcony on the other side. So that balcony that was changable in early access and then wasn't when the pack came out, you can't change the window or door.
@@moonlitxangel5771 You can sometimes have your sims place things out there, or use the TOOL mod, but you can't place anything in build-mode.
It does, but not for the living room windows. Those change based on certain gameplay aspects, so they're still fixed, but you can edit or change the bedroom windows!
City Living was my first Sims 4 pack, and this is actually getting me excited about it again!
i just fully started crying over this its so beutiful what
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!!
It wasn't a bug, actually. It was part 1 of a fix to make them work better. But they reverted it since people were complaining. :)
They're still working on making it work the way they want it to afaik though. The end goal to my understanding is the railings only disappearing if something is in the same spot as where they'd be.
They do seem to have fixed it.
this has been such a great Sims year
your new prof pic is so cute!!
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.
I renovated Penny's apartment for my save file last year. I love how we picked the same bed!
i admire your creativity Kayla lolll i honestly love it
kayla please do a video tier ranking all of your builds of 2023!!!
when kayla said penny likes vibrant colors it made me giggle cause her name in my country is penelope vibrante (vibrant penelope)
Also in case anyone doesn't know, you CAN also change windows/exterior wallpaper for Evergreen Harbor apartments! Someone tested and they could do it, you only can't change the ones on the balconies... But we couldn't before either.
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...
wish simsie looked at some more of the HUGE city living art... i always like too many of them 😅
your build is so cute! love all the pinks!
ty lilsimsie for making a video on this so even more people are aware of the change. Now, if this was an accident, they can't change it back without upsetting the whole community.
i think this was a major bug from them failing to properly game test for rent, and was found by simmers who bought the pack. and since this is something simmers have been asking for for ages, the sims team realized pretending it was intentional would be better than trying to fix it. and i bet the reason the bug works like that is because the new pack is basically a slight refresh of city living, but released as a new pack for $$$.
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
Not gonna lie, I kinda love the fact that the apartments have some minor unchangeable things. Like the deleting the plaques or removing a lot trait. If that kind of lore building was introduced in other places like if some lots in Evergreen Harbor would be stuck with reduced recycling because they're near the water or something that'd be cool
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.
There haven't been any lilsimsie updates the last two days. Is everything okay?
she hasnt streamed on twitch in 3 days either):
She hasn’t uploaded or streamed on the 11th or 12th bc she’s supporting the strike for ceasefire in Gaza. She’s mentioned this on her discord and instagram
@@eej.07 Ah, okay. I didn't see it on her Insta, and I'm not part of the Discord. Thanks! I was worried that something had happened.
she’s supporting the strike for ceasefire in palestine 🇵🇸🫶🏻
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 😭😭😭
Why was her profile picture removed?
I personally like the set lot trates, it gives the apartments a little bit of personality. 😊
KAYLA STOP SHRINKING THE TV ALL THE TIME, PENNY WANTS A HUGE TV
I REALLY like this build!! I think you did really well Kayla😍
this is life changing
I think they deliberately don't say anything, just to surprise you creators, when they change something like this window edit. LOL Also the bedroom is just fine. It couldn't be any worse than the multi million mansion in downtown nyc, that was or still is for sale. A different decorator did one room each and they had a cotton candy room, or that is what the real estate tour guy called it. Apparently the owners main bedroom. Made you want to barf.
i feel like even if we can build more rentals, city living is still the ONLY city world. like, yes you could make all the lots in other worlds big city buildings, but we still cant make skyscrapers, we cant change everything around the lots being suburbs or country side in every. single. other world 😭 i really hope we get more city worlds its actually unreal tht only 1 out of 25 worlds is an actual city
I find it extremely ironic that we had to wait 8 years for an update where we can change windows. On the weekend where a new expansion pack is released.
Extremely ironic
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
Fingers crossed they are adapted into the for rent pack.
She updated her pfppp
reminder to anyone who might not know, you can change the doors and other permanent stuff with the tool mod! that is what i've been using to edit windows before this update
Whenever I zoom out and see the apartments from outside, the near walls are cut off. I about never play with the walls fully visible. So, the apartment windows looking «weird» is not an issue.
Another change that I accidentally discovered about a month before the last update : The possibility to change the outside walls of apartments. Not all of them, but, at least some of them. I was renovating an apartment when I noticed that I had changed the outside wall with the swath that I intended to use for an inside wall.
Notice how, in this build, the outside walls have reverted to the bland naked drywall panelling...
Those open industrial windows are set the wrong way. They slant inward while actual ones slant outward to prevent rain from coming in.
I love every single penny pizzazz build Kayla has ever done 😍
Love the new profile pic ❤
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
