Storyteller Spotlight: Lady Simstagram

June 29, 2017

You probably already know that the Simming community is just brimming with creativity. From YouTube videos to incredible builds to mods and custom content, there is no shortage of talent among Simmers. Did you know that the talent doesn’t end there? The Simming community has a large and vibrant subcommunity of endlessly talented storytellers.

What the heck is a storyteller, you ask?

A storyteller is a Simmer who uses screenshots and their own imagination to tell a story in the written form. Think of it like an illustrated book. Storytellers typically host their Sims stories on blogging platforms like Tumblr and WordPress. They have a wide variety of writing styles, from quick dialogue captions to elaborate tales that read like a published novel, so there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Bookworms rejoice! Many storytellers also edit their screenshots to add a splash of individuality to the visuals.

Sims storytelling is one of the most time-consuming creative endeavours and it deserves some recognition, so I’m here today spotlighting one of the many talented storytellers in our community, Lady Simstagram!

Introducing Lady Simstagram

Lady Simstagram hosts her Sims stories on her Tumblr blog and adds a touch of warmth to her screenshots with some subtle edits. Her edits combined with her creative camera angles and beautifully decorated sets really make her shots stand out in a crowd. The footers she adds to the bottom of all her posts are both functional and aesthetically pleasing; they help you identify which story that post belongs to and they make her posts look sleek and professional. In addition to the footers, Lady Simstagram keeps her tags organized and accurate so it’s easy to use the navigation panel to go right to the story you want to read.

Lady Simstagram’s stories are a great read for the Simmer looking for something quick and easy to enjoy because she tells her stories in the form of brief captions and snippets of dialogue. Her concise style allows you to glimpse the lives of her Sims in a series of snapshots which go well with the illustrations. The stories are easy to get through in a hurry but the brevity of the writing packs an emotional punch. Lady Simstagram is a master of saying more with less; a valued trait in any writer!

Q & A With Lady Simstagram

I had the pleasure of interviewing Lady Simstagram about her work. Here’s what she had to say:

Q: What do you draw your inspiration from for your stories?

A: I’m inspired by what I read. For example, the most recent series I’ve read is The Mortal Instruments (for about the millionth time). I based my character Grant on Magnus Bane. I also gain inspiration from my own life and from those around me. As a writer, I like to observe and gather ideas from those I interact with. The story line where Grace loses her children was drawn from a close friend of mine’s own life. Clary’s story is one close to my own heart, as a larger girl myself who suffered at the hands of bullies. I wanted to create a character who my audience could see struggle but learn and get better.

Q: How long have you been writing Sims stories?

A: I’ve been creating stories since The Sims 4 came out, though I did stop for a while and then picked it back up again recently. I had to put it aside for my own personal life. I’m putting a lot more effort and time into the blog. I’m trying to edit the photos and create a more compelling and grabbing story that an audience can enjoy.

Q: Is there any advice you would give Simmers who are new to storytelling?

A: Look at what’s around you. Draw from your own or experiences you’ve seen. Try and think where you can take the story and make sure it’s not going to die on the tracks. Think of it like a ride, you want people to enjoy the experience and then when you’re done still come back to ride again! It’s also important to not get discouraged; you might not be getting loads of viewers but things take time. The story should be enjoyable to create and not forced. Experiment what you can do in game with different interactions to create emotions.

The Sims 4 Mod: Dress Code Lot Traits

Sick and tired of seeing your Sims attending the wedding in a pajama? How about throwing a poll party on a community lot while everyone is wearing casual clothes instead of being in swimwear? Luckily, LittleMsSam came up with a solution.

The Dress Code Lot Traits Mod lets you assign a certain outfit category for community lots. Lets say you want to see Sims arrive to a certain Bar in formal wear. The moment your Sim steps into a lot they’ll change to formal wear, while other NPCs will change once they start performing a certain interaction.

You can immediately dress up the entire lot for the occasion using the Dress Code Gadget that will be spawned in your inventory once you visit a community lot with a Dress Code trait.

To install this Mod simply extracted the content in the .rar file to Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Mods folder. Make sure you have Mods / CC enabled iny our game options!

There’s a unique buff that you can unlock with Get to Work and Parenthood

The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack is full of little hidden features and buffs that you can unlock and find as you play with your family. However, there is one special buff that you can unlock if you have Get to Work installed.

Sims who play a lot with the Booboo Billy Doctor Playset as a child and who manage to treat the doll will have a special little buff waiting for them once they reach the adult phase. The “I’m A Doctor” buff will last only for 2 hours.

The moment your Sim becomes an adult you can start thinking about your Sim’s career. If your Sim managed to get the “I’m A Doctor” buff during the Child stage, they’ll get a similar buff the moment they join the Doctor career (which comes with The Sims 4 Get to Work). This one is a happy buff and will last for 2 whole days.

This is one of the rare gameplay features in The Sims 4 that require more than one pack to function.

The Sims 4 Eco Living: Ironing Boards are being considered

After the announcement of laundry gameplay coming to The Sims 4 Eco Living Stuff Pack, SimGuruGraham answered a few questions on Twitter and The Sims Forums, saying that there is a possibility that we might see functional ironing boards in this pack. Please note that, although the gameplay theme has been locked, the gameplay features have yet to be developed.

We’re considering it. It’s hard to say if it’ll fit yet – we’re focusing on the laundry items that were included in the survey first.

— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) June 27, 2017

Also, the entire process of doing laundry may be different this time around. SimGuruGraham assured us to keep an open mind and influence the design process by giving feedback:

Who said laundry would work like that in Sims 4? Keep an open mind and help influence the design process; that’s what this is all about.

Apparently not many people knew about Facial CAS Presets in The Sims 4

I was searching through The Sims posts on Reddit and I came across this thread which reminded people that you need to select certain CAS presets in order to get unique, different shapes and facial features on the chin, cheeks, eyes and so on. I knew about this since The Sims 4 Create A Sim Demo, but apparently many on Reddit replied that they’ve just heard about this feature. It’s not a surprise considering that these facial presets are hidden and are only present to you when you click the certain part of your Sim’s face.

Notice the dimples on this Sim’s face? They can only be added by selecting a certain cheek preset. There are different variations that will give your Sim’s cheek a different look (not talking about the shape but the tone and details instead).

Similar thing goes for other parts of the face. Want dimples on your chin? You can find a preset for that!

Want your Sim to have small bags under their eyes? There’s a right preset for that! There are also presets which will your Sim different lenghts of eyelashes.

Opinion: The Sims 4 Fitness Stuff Isn’t So Bad

Opinion: The Sims 4 Fitness Stuff Isn’t So Bad

When I first learned that a fitness-related stuff pack was coming in June, I’ll be perfectly honest; I wasn’t too excited about it. I didn’t hate the concept. I could see why the Sims Team would want to expand upon this area of the game. It was old, stale, and hadn’t been touched upon since Spa Day. There was no doubt that gym-related activities were in need of an upgrade. I just didn’t think I would get much use out of a pack like Fitness Stuff. My Sims rarely go to the gym. If they do any kind of physical activity, it’s usually a yoga routine at home on their balcony or in the backyard. What could Fitness Stuff possibly have that would excite a Simmer like me?

Soon after, the gameplay items of the pack were announced; a rock wall and earbuds. I wasn’t too interested in the earbuds but the rock wall intrigued me. I wasn’t sold quite yet, however. I needed to see this rock wall in action for myself. It had to be a step up from the rock walls we’ve seen before in previous installments of The Sims or it wouldn’t be worth installing for me. I decided to watch the live broadcast with SimGuruGraham. That was I started to think Fitness Stuff would be a welcomed addition to my game, after all.

I ended up getting the pack and spent some time exploring everything it had to offer. It quickly became clear to me that I was wrong to be so critical of this pack. The Sims 4 Fitness Stuff added much more than some funky clothes and ultra-modern furniture to my game. It added a whole new way to enjoy the Fitness skill, which is a skill I became bored with years ago, but not anymore!

I expected the clothes to be stuff that a Sim probably wouldn’t wear anywhere other than the gym, but I was wrong. Many of the clothing items suit any Sim who wants to look fashionably laid-back and each item comes in a great variety of both patterned and coloured variants. My personal favourites are the polyester tank top with shoulder shrug and the tennis skirt, pictured below:

The hair that comes with Fitness Stuff is also a strong point of the pack. The shoulder-length dreadlocks provide the game with some much-needed diversity and the side ponytail is casually elegant. Of course, everyone loves getting new ombre hairstyles and the new side-buzz with a long flipped fringe delivers in that area.

Let’s put the CAS parts aside and jump right into the gameplay that Fitness Stuff offers. I can’t wrap my mind around all the hate for the rock wall. It. Is. So. Cool! The biggest reason I hardly ever sent my Sims to the gym was because it was boring watching them punch a glorified bean bag, run in place on a treadmill, or sit at the weight machine. Building the Fitness skill was tedious and mind-numbing. Do these three boring actions. Over. And over. And over again. Forever. It wasn’t exciting. It didn’t pump me up the way working out should.

With Fitness Stuff, I love sending my Sims to the gym. Watching them try to scale the rock wall is so much more entertaining! Plus with all the different settings (including a potentially deadly fire setting), their rock wall workouts are never the same. The fire setting really gets my adrenaline going because holy plumbob, what if my Sim dies?! The gym is an exciting place to be now and I love it.

The workout videos are also more fun to watch than the exercise machines and punching bag. I find myself bobbing my head and doing a little dancey thing in my seat while I’m watching my Sims work out to the videos. I’ve never been that engaged in my Sims’ workouts before.

As for the earbuds, there was a lot of hype surrounding them, but I feel like they’re the least exciting gameplay item in this pack. They’re just kind of… there. Your Sim puts them on sometimes and listens to music while they do stuff, which is basically what they always did before. They just needed a radio nearby. The fact that the earbuds are portable now doesn’t make much of a difference, but they do look good on my teens. Teenagers are always walking around with earbuds in their ears, blaring whatever music is hip that decade, so I like giving earbuds to my teenagers to make them feel more like teenagers. In the end, it’s more of an aesthetic appeal for me than a functional one.

Does this mean that I love everything in Fitness Stuff? I have to be honest and say no. For me, the furniture and decor are the weakest aspect of this pack. It’s all very lackluster and unremarkable. It doesn’t look any different from any of the ultra-modern furniture we already had in the game. If you own Spa Day, you already have most, if not all of the furnishings in Fitness Stuff. They don’t stand apart from each other in any significant way. If you buy this pack, don’t buy it for the furniture because it’s really nothing special.

So, is Fitness Stuff the best stuff pack for The Sims 4 to date? In my opinion, no. In my mind, The Sims 4 Kids Room Stuff still tops every stuff pack we’ve seen so far, but The Sims 4 Fitness Stuff is still a nice addition to the game. It adds a new dynamic to your Sims’ workouts and gives them more of a reason to head out to the gym on a regular basis. Even if you don’t play active Sims very often, having this pack in your collection might change that and make playing these Sims worth your while.

What do you think? Have I convinced you to give The Sims 4 Fitness Stuff a chance? Let me know in the comments. I want to hear from you!

The Sims 4 Eco Living: Laundry Wins the Gameplay Community Vote!

SimGuruGraham has just announced on the forums that Laundry gameplay theme has won the community vote for The Sims 4 Eco Living Stuff Pack!

Before we dive into the results, here are all the features that were listed for Laundry:

LAUNDRY
An optional gameplay system that’s only used by the active household when laundry objects are placed on the Sim’s home lot. Moodlets and modifiers to the decay rate of certain needs serve as some of the benefits and pushback of this system. Some gameplay feature ideas include:

– Washing Machine – Sims can use the washing machine to clean dirty clothes that are collected from a hamper, or from piles of clothes on the ground. Object could break, be upgraded, and potentially have a fun interaction or a funny failure.
– Dryer – Sims can take clothes that have just been cleaned in the Washing Machine or the Wash Tub and have them dried. Object could break, as well as being upgraded.
–Hamper – When a Sim in the active household changes their outfit on their home lot, laundry is added to the hamper as long as it exists anywhere on the lot. Over time, the hamper gradually fills up. If there is no hamper, or the hamper is full, then a clothes pile appears on the ground.
– Clothes Line – Sims who prefer to be eco conscious can choose to use a clothesline as an alternative to the dryer. Using a clothes line does not require power and offers savings on the weekly bill, but clothes take longer to dry.
– Wash Tub – Sims who prefer to be eco conscious can choose to use a wash tub as an alternative to a washing machine. Using a wash tub does not require power or water, and offers savings on the weekly bill, but the Sim must remain at the object to wash their clothes by hand. can choose to use a wash tub as an alternative to a washing machine. Using a wash tub does not require power or water, and offers savings on the weekly bill, but the Sim must remain at the object to wash their clothes by hand.

Here are the official results posted by SimGuruGraham:

Hello Simmers! Let’s get right to it…

Laundry is the winning group of gameplay features that we’ll create for this upcoming Stuff Pack, after capturing the most votes from this community! In fact, when we examined the outcome across the different regions that voted, the results were almost entirely aligned. Nearly everyone voted for the options in the following order…

Laundry

Off the Grid

Food Preserves

Carbon Conscious

The only exception to this result came from players in Russia, where Food Preserves swapped places with Off the Grid by a slim margin.

With these results in hand, we have a clear path forward for this pack. In the coming weeks our Stuff Pack designer will get to work writing full designs for Washers, Dryers, Clotheslines, Wash Tubs, and Ironing Boards. I’m looking forward to sharing those full designs with you, so that we can collaborate on the little details which are so important to creating a fun – and full – Sims experience.

You also have two more votes to look forward to, now with concrete dates on when they will occur. The Pack Icon Vote will start on September 6th, followed by the Pack Title Vote starting September 13th, where we will select the final name for this Stuff Pack.

In the meantime, watch for more in-depth looks into game development right here on this forum. In the coming weeks I’ll be sharing more art, showing off the hairstyles that will come with this pack, discussing the process we follow internally to get from the initial brainstorm to the feature groups you voted on, and more!

Speculation: Possible first look at The Sims 4 Pets!

NOTE: This post is pure speculation and is not confirmed by EA.

UPDATE #2: In a conversation with one of our readers Roman Doubrava, we found more information about how the render and information about Pets got into the hands of the film-game.cz retailer. Roman got a reply from one of the people who work at film-game.cz, saying the following:

Hello, The game is a product plan from EA, which they sent last week under the working name PETS. So far we do not know whether we hit the Czech name of DOMÁCÍ MAZLÍČCI (Home Pets) (it may be just MAZLÍČCI (Pets) or PSI & KOČKY (Dogs and Cats) ). The picture we have on the product is only illustrative.

However, when asked for information about the origin of the render, they replied with the following:

Documents for the mock-up come from google search, not sent to us by EA. We have withdrawn the product at the publisher’s request, will only be offered after the official announcement of the game.

The question remains: how were they able to find that render on Google if we did an extensive search on google and various sims forums before this render got viral and found NO results of this render, yet they were able to find it just like that and post it on their listing? Furthermore, why is no one able to track down the original creator of this state-of-the-art fanmade render? For now, this is just speculation, but we’ll see the final results and the resemblance once The Sims Team decides to officially announce this Pack…

UPDATE: SimGuruGraham tweeted a comment on this render, saying that it’s fake. Although it’s still fishy how the original creator / source of this render cannot be found, at least we now have a 2nd listing aiming at the November 9/10 release date.

One easy trick to spot a fake render… are the Sims wearing a bunch of old clothes? Then it’s fake! #scammershatehim

— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) June 26, 2017

One of the most reliable Czech retail websites that sells video games (film.game.cz) has listed The Sims 4 Pets on their page. Along with the listing there is a box art which, although looks fanmade, is made with a render which seems more than real to me. I have no trustworthy information but it seems the retailer recreated the box art using the render they were provided with.

I did my duty as a news reporter and did a google and forums search of this render before it went viral. However, no results came up.

Even if the assets turn out to be fake (which we don’t know yet), the November 10 listing could very much be real as this isn’t the first time the release date has been leaked by a Czech retailer.

The retailer listed November 10th, 2017 as the release date of this Expansion Pack – similar to the first release date leak.

We’ll keep you updated as new information pop up. Stay tuned on our Pets Category for all the latest news!

There’s a Canning Station Mod in the works!

Don’t worry in case the Food Preserves gameplay feature doesn’t win in the latest The Sims 4 Eco Living Stuff poll. Modder MunMun is already developing a new Canning Station mod which lets you make all sorts of jam using different fruits.

According to the modder, you’ll be able to use the jam jars and make eatable bread spreads. There’ll also be an option to sell jam for profit to an evil corporation, giving you a strong embarrased buff. There are 11 jams to choose from:

It’s not known when this Mod will be available for download but keep a close eye on MunMun’s twitter timeline! We’ll make sure to give you an overview of this mod once it comes out.

Creator Membership on SC Social brings plenty of awesome benefits for Custom Content Creators, Modders and Builders. For more information about it, CLICK HERE!

Before continuing, please note the following:

EA does not pre-screen Custom Content /Mods and players should always exercise caution when adding Custom Content to their game files.
Make sure your mods are up to date. For a full list of broken and fixed mods CLICK HERE!
After each The Sims 4 Update your game will automatically disable Mods and Custom Content. You can re-enable them by going to Game Options > Other > Enable Custom Content and Mods.
