The "outdoor lighting" indoors that irked kayla is the vibe for more traditional homes/ converted traditional homes in southeast asia... so I kinda get why it looks like that initially. 😅 but yes, in normal sims 4 gameplay I dont like that too.
She's mentioned it before about how she loves the idea of doing things like that, but the lighting bug is just annoying. While it is a style in southeast Asia, lighting and shadow bugs definitely are not the style. lol The best you could do here is put in big arches as doors instead which ruins that idea of just like a whole wall being open.
That stupid house in Glimmerbrook with the missing door at the back of it drives me crazy every single time I look at it but I always just chalked it up to not enough time to finish it or EA was just trying to troll people knowing it would drive a lot of people crazy LOL Great build once again Kayla and hope sweet little Snap is doing ok!
I'm definitely not well-versed in this (as I live in Canada) but homes in a lot of tropical climates tend to be more open than this to allow for more air to circulate, it's a gorgeous build but the original seems a bit more true to life (if annoying for gameplay) Edit: before anyone says anything I'm aware Kayla lives in florida but florida is not as hot as SE Asia (which is the inspiration for Tomarang) and most American homes also tend to have AC which is less common in SE Asia from what I know
She's mentioned before about wanting to be able to do things like that in builds, like just having entire open walls, but the lighting bug also causes issues with shadows and it just looks terrible. I'd rather the style be more fitting for the game than being so true to life, which is what she aimed for here really.
@@Eventide215 Yeah and I do feel that she did a decent job of balancing both how realistic it feels and also how it functions in gameplay! I feel like both the original and the updated build are good, just in different ways. Sorry if my original comment wasn't really clear on my opinion!
Kayla don't be so hard on yourself, you did an amazing job as usual and if you don't feel like it's good maybe it's because you're going through something completely hard. Having your pet sick is the worst, believe me I know (my cat had diabetes and cancer) , the fact that you're posting despite of this is amazing. Sending you lots of love
Hey simsie don't put yourself down so much for this build I think it looks nice and the reason you mightve been struggling so much is because of the different culture the builds are suppose to represent. So don't out yourself down just have fun!
my cat went thru major surgery two years ago and i was a horrible wreck. you are being so calm and doing great work in such a hard time! we love you and snap!!!
I just got some bad news, thanks for making silly little videos even when your own life is difficult, you’re a big help to me today and I’m thankful for your content ❤
Hi friend! Hopefully, the news you got are something that just temporary affect anything. Just remember, whatever happened should not throw off your whole life. Times may be hard but there is always light at the end of a tunnel. There will be better days, even if it doesn't look or feel like it at the moment. I wish you the best and send you all the virtual hugs you want and deserve. Much love💜
This may seem kinda random but in many cities in South Asia (I'm from India so that's mostly what I mean) where we have the low toilets there's usually also a western one for accessibility reasons as you can't really make a wheelchair accessible bathroom with the traditional ones, so it would be cool if you were building more with this style to do that too! Great build as always!
i like this bc i’ve been playing with a tomorangan family who’s mom is an entertainer and now she’ll have a new and improved screaming gecko to perform at. but i will have to place a microphone 🥹
You don't have to be so hard on yourself and apologize to us when things don't turn out like you want! You're awesome, and I enjoyed watching this video regardless of how you think it turned out :)
My boyfriend is Filipino and the original build def gives old traditional architecture that I see there. It’s unfortunately accurate 😔 however, your build is beautiful and I also hate the weird indoor outdoor lighting so yours seems more enjoyable.
Lbr rental feature was not ready even when it was released 🙈 i also really dislike how some stairs, if u like turn them any way, it shows through a wall.
Simsie you were stressing but around the 19:00 mark you started thinking through it and it came together!! I love the vibes of it. I think what works for these spaces is clutter tbh. The rugs help add more interest, but having items on the table helped too. I liked when you switched up the chairs too because it was more versatility
i think some things, the shape of the roof, the overhang, and the dim lighting are features of this type of architecture in real life and made more sense with them. this version does look more detailed and lush though! i think for this build it would have been better to get references for real south east asian buildings. (also the fact that the two tables on the bottom floor are at different angles is aaaaa)
This is a beautiful build!! I love the colors and the design! You always impress me :) Take as much time as you need for yourself-personal lives can be so stressful! We love you 🩷
I've been going through and redoing all the builds and I've left the stairs to nowhere.... it just feels so appropriate in a magic pack and I highkey love it XD
Hey simsie i have an idea for a challenge: every room is a different colour filter but you can only use items that are mostly another colour for example you spinn red and there is a blue couch with red pillows under that filter u can use it but u can’t use a red couch! Idk if this even makes sense e isn’t first language
You should have a cat cam pointed at that chair for the next video! Then we can see Snap with her little flower cone while we watch your videos. Idk about everyone else, but I LOVE seeing the animals on camera
I have a bit of an ego about that. I remember on a feedback form talking about a Hokkaido themed world with kotetsu, bowing, shrines, and also to utilise their EA game changers more- as well as push for allowing more diversity. Almost everything I asked for they delivered on and I wonder if anyone else asked them the same thing? Otherwise probably the coolest coincidence of my life. Now, just to get a vegan trait in the game so I can make a true simself! Wild I can be they/them (although Im super happy I can be) but I can't be vegan yet 0w0
They easily could've had simmers make lots for this pack. At the very least, non-rental lots would've been an obvious choice. Even for the rental lots, they could've had the simmers make them as normal residential lots and then convert them to rentals later
Hi Simsie! I love your videos and I watch your twitch streams (I’m thenarlygamer). I know you don’t read the comments but I just wanted to say that you inspired me to get the sims and stardew valley. Sending love to Snap ❤😊😁 (this is my mom’s account)
Hi Kayla, sending you so much love and support! Please don’t beat yourself up too much, your build is still great! I always love your style, even (especially!) the blue suburbans 💙And we totally get how you’re feeling, it’s rough right now, and we would totally understand if you need to take a break and focus on kitty and wedding! Don’t worry, we’ll be here for you! Love you so much!
kayla it looks amazing what are you talking about!! you're too hard on yourself, it looks fab! sending love to you and snap as always, so so much love x
Hey Simsie! Loved the revamp! Out of context but: I was thinking on the other heir on your legacy challenge and they could be called Sean S. Tay, so their full name would read like Seance Table and they could be in the paranormal career
Your builds are always WAY better than EA builds. They should hire you to redo their entire original builds that happened before they started working with Creators. You and other builders of course cause that is a lot of work. So happy Snap is slowly recovering. It'll take time but the more time passes, the more she heals. Those soft cones are so much better than the original hard plastic ones. The Sunflower one on Snap is actually cute but I'm sure she doesn't think so. lol It's hard to see your fur babies sick but Snap is lucky to have you care for her. Snap is so pretty. Hi Snap. Hi also to Shrimp and Sunny.
You know, I never thought about it before, but I wonder if the missing elements were for a couple reasons. 1) I wonder if EA had met their build limit on the lot and sacrificed those items for others, but more importantly, 2) I wonder if they left out those items because "celebrities don't poop" so they don't need toilets, and because spellcasters can transportalate, they don't need doors or stairs. Didn't think about that until you said the names of the packs with the missing items, Kayla!
Someone has probably already made this comment but the reason they chose a more vibrant colour for the wallpaper on the inside is because of the outdoor lighting ☺
I don't know if you are reading comments but I wanted to say you are handling it very well, I wouldn't be able to have the energy you have right now. Hope she recover very soon. Sending you my best wishes.
Changing the roof was definitely an improvement 👍 and I too get incredibly stressed over my cats having medical problems, it's completely understandable.
Okay but the screaming geckos is an iconic name
I would go there irl
sounds like a great band name!
*it is tho* 😳
It reminds me of Total Drama Island!
amen
Snap in her flower cone is so cute! Best wishes to her and you on a speedy recovery. ❤
"don't worry guys, it's not a real sun flower" thank gosh, you had me worried there.

Great build once again Kayla and hope sweet little Snap is doing ok!
omg simsie you should build a hotdog mansion for stanley! like a red yellow and brown colour scheme!
YES
Love how there’s a subcommunity in Kayla’s comments of just people asking for a Weenie Estate build😂
This is such a good idea omggg
Yaassss
@@nickboon1235 stanley deserves it

so close to 2 mil kayla!! i’ve been watching you for so long and i can’t believe how far you’ve come!💞
the original ea build looks cute when you look at it first but when you look at it for longer you see everything thats ‘wrong’ 😅
3:04 aww Snappy 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Sending you and your fur babies love, Kayla. I’m not a praying girl but I’m praying for Snap’s quick recovery 🤞🏼 💓💓💓
the flower cone is so cute!!! Wishing u and snap all the best!!!!!!!!!!!!
I made it a rec-centre in my save! It fits right in with the community vibes of the neighborhood
ooo that's smart, I might do that too 🤔

Honestly think that your version did a good job of improving the build with the original vibe intact somewhat!
I love that Snap is straightup a sunflower
Poor Snap just wants to be free but she is lucky she has Kayla who is being a wonderful mom
my cat went thru major surgery two years ago and i was a horrible wreck. you are being so calm and doing great work in such a hard time! we love you and snap!!!
the way that i looked for and located snap in the chair before you even introduced her. i was like is the baby doing okay?? yes i see her. okay good.
Wishing Snap the sunflower cat a speedy recovery. ❤
I hope that snap has a good recovery, I watch you just to see your cats on the cat cam.😊
I just got some bad news, thanks for making silly little videos even when your own life is difficult, you’re a big help to me today and I’m thankful for your content ❤
Hi, I know I'm an internet stranger, but I also go to Simsie videos for comfort. Sending good vibes and hopes for a better tomorrow 💜

Give Snappy lots of love from us! Hope she gets to feeling better soon, and I hope you're making a priority of taking care of yourself!
I'm glad your cat is getting better. She looks adorable wearing that flower "cone".
Snap makes her flower cone look so cute, hope she feels better soon
this renovated version looks lovely 💞 wishing snap a swift recovery!! please take all the time you need :)
kayla babe you're too hard on yourslef!!! i love this reno so much!! im absolutley putting this in my saves! sending you and snap love

WHY CURTAINS I love you, Kayla. This is actually really cute. Just the curtains don't match and they anger me.😂❤
snappy looks so cute in her little sunflower cone 🥺💕 i'm glad her surgery went well & i hope she makes a speedy recovery!!
Snaps flower is SO CUTEEEE, I hope she has a quick recovery!
glad snap is feeling a bit better. wishing her a speedy recovery!!
Watching Kayla go through all the stages of grief renovating this build. 😅 As always, came out looking amazing.
I definitely think you should completely redo it in another video, it would be cool to see you build your own version ♥️.
I wish snap a speedy and healthy recovery ❤
You don't have to be so hard on yourself and apologize to us when things don't turn out like you want! You're awesome, and I enjoyed watching this video regardless of how you think it turned out :)

Ahhh I can’t believe you’re so close to two million subs!! Congrats and I hope snap has a speedy recovery!!
This is a beautiful build!! I love the colors and the design! You always impress me :) Take as much time as you need for yourself-personal lives can be so stressful! We love you 🩷
Ok but thank god you renovated this bc my sims are currently obsessed with this lot and i am also not a huge fan of it
I've been going through and redoing all the builds and I've left the stairs to nowhere.... it just feels so appropriate in a magic pack and I highkey love it XD
Hey simsie i have an idea for a challenge: every room is a different colour filter but you can only use items that are mostly another colour for example you spinn red and there is a blue couch with red pillows under that filter u can use it but u can’t use a red couch!

Good luck snap! ❤ I remember you hitting 500k!
EA rlly needs to learn how to play their own game
Aw I’m so glad snaps surgery went okay🎉she looks BEAUTIFUL in her sunflower cone!! We love the cats Kayla❤❤
Poor Snap, I hope she feels better soon 😔

I know it's annoying for Sims 4 gameplay but it's pretty accurate for Southeast Asian buildings 😂 it's good for ventilation
I really enjoyed this video! I like being taken along for the ride like this, haha. The trust the process vibes are my favorite
i hope ur cat is feeling better 🧡

Too many plants doesnt exist. The more plants the better!!! I loveee this build
Simsie: “They aren’t really mean just critical”
Sounds just like EA when they said the empty houses “add to the strange” 😂
4:50 is such a funny moment, literally laughing out loud
They easily could've had simmers make lots for this pack. At the very least, non-rental lots would've been an obvious choice. Even for the rental lots, they could've had the simmers make them as normal residential lots and then convert them to rentals later
I'm so surprised you didn't put a closet in that little 2x2 room!
Great job! On the build great job improveing it and keeping the vibe.
Get well soon Snap. ❤
Glad to see snap doing well 😊 I definitely like the Reno
Hi Simsie! I love your videos and I watch your twitch streams (I’m thenarlygamer). I know you don’t read the comments but I just wanted to say that you inspired me to get the sims and stardew valley. Sending love to Snap ❤😊😁 (this is my mom’s account)
I would like to see a video where you rebuild a lounge using only base game and For Rent to replace the Screaming Geckos
Hi Kayla, sending you so much love and support! Please don’t beat yourself up too much, your build is still great! I always love your style, even (especially!) the blue suburbans 💙And we totally get how you’re feeling, it’s rough right now, and we would totally understand if you need to take a break and focus on kitty and wedding! Don’t worry, we’ll be here for you! Love you so much!
Gecko is such a funny word 😂
I'm so glad to be here before 2M, love you kayla ❤
Kayla, don't be insecure! You're a great builder and entertainer 😊
Besides, your cat had cancer, and that's really hard. I'm glad she's OK! ❤
kayla it looks amazing what are you talking about!! you're too hard on yourself, it looks fab! sending love to you and snap as always, so so much love x
Simsie this entire video: everybody’s so creative

Snaps flower cone is so cute!!! 💜
i actually am lost on what to choose to watch on youtube without your videos
I'm pretty sure they make the builds bad on purpose. It's not much fun to renovate a house that's already nice, so it gives incentive to play the game
Hope the old lady is healing okay 💕
You're always so critical of yourself but create such beautiful builds
Simsie sounded so polite yet annoyed by saying "Ok, well that's interesting...and different of them to do...is there a reason you did that?" 😆
Your vid made my dayy ❤❤
glad kittys ok
We love Snap the sunflower :)
I don't know if you are reading comments but I wanted to say you are handling it very well, I wouldn't be able to have the energy you have right now. Hope she recover very soon. Sending you my best wishes.
im sooo glad youve renovated this lot omg
For me it was the white upstairs throwing me off. I feel like a different colour would’ve made it all come together but you did a great job!
PLEASE make Stanley a mansion, he deserves a big and fancy hot dog house sooo bad! 🙏
Im glad snapper came out of surgery okay 💕
Changing the roof was definitely an improvement 👍 and I too get incredibly stressed over my cats having medical problems, it's completely understandable.
Speaking of rebuilding worlds. Any chance of a new Simsiesave in the future?
Also, hope Snap's recovery goes smooth.
This build is so specific that is looks like they were trying to recreate real place in the sims
thank god snaps i doing okay!🥰
I actually think this is really good! If I want my Sims to come here I'll definitely download it so they can have the improved version!
