Welcome to my Sims 4 Quality Control Monthly - Just For Fun, this is for builders, designers and sim creators. I started the QC challenges with a goal to see people improve, I started out having no idea how to build anything but a square box house. I started entering competitions and never dreamed I could build some of the things I have today, though I still have a lot to learn.
I see a lot of builds on the gallery that look wonderful on the outside but are lacking on the inside with decor or issues with play ability with sims so these challenges are all about Quality.
There is 3 parts to the Quality Control Contests
Quality Control Contest (Bi-weekly/fortnightly)QC Create A Room Contest (Bi-weekly/fortnightly)
This Quality Control Monthly - Just For Fun
QC Competiton Guide
If you are new to the competitions/challenges I highly suggest checking out the QC Competition Guide, it has tons of helpful information that pretty much explains what we look for in entries.
You can find it here:
QC Competition GuidePRACTICE CHALLENGES
Quality Control Practice Challenges are to help people learn about all aspects of building, decorating and landscaping. It is also a place for more experienced players to share their knowledge
Please check out the
Quality Control Practice Challenges HERE
These monthly challenges are designed for the slower builder's (like myself hehe) and runs for roughly 4 weeks each challenge.
The challenges will consist of bigger builds mainly on 40x50, 50x50 and 64x64 lots with larger budgets, if you are looking for smaller builds best to check out the weekly Quality Control Contest.
@Cbear13@PebblycatEven though these challenges are no longer run as a competition the QC judges will be giving out Maxis nominations to all who participate. We won't be going through the builds looking for faults but we will be looking at them in game so we hope you still build with the care and quality you would be if it was being judged.
These are general rules and specific rules for each challenge will be posted with the write ups.
No Custom Content allowed – we want everyone to be able to play your wonderful creations.
Be polite and respectful when using this thread.
Standard cheats allowed bb.moveobjects, bb.showhiddenobjects and bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement.
Number 1 rule: HAVE FUN!

Secrets of Bamboo Village
Far away in a secret highland cloud forest in Asia is secret village that is said to be the origin of the ancient bamboo plant. It is the home to the rarest and most beautiful bamboo in the world. The village people are its protectors and they have built their village in the surrounds of the bamboo. They have a breath taking natural spring which supplies the village with fresh water and of course the amazing bamboo and surrounding trees of the forest are the materials used in their building and furniture. The village is a wonderful Asian styled village that has many wonderful and beautiful secrets found within. It also has beautiful pink cherry trees as well as the ancient bamboo plants growing around the village. The villagers who protect these plants are farmers and grow all their own food and fish in their village pond.
Your task:
Build an Asian styled village that is built in a highland forest and is the home and origin of the bamboo plant. Include at least a few homes for the villagers and all the requirements listed below.
Lot Size:
50x50 or 64x64
Lot Type:
Residential
Budget:
Unlimited
Requirements:
An Asian styled village (at least 3 homes)
A natural spring suppling water and fish to village
Produce growing to feed the village
Plenty of bamboo growing around village
Beautiful pink cherry trees
Make sure everything is playable by sims as there is nothing worse than downloading a lot on the gallery to find its not playable. Also try be careful with placement "Quality is the Key".
Make sure you have all necessities that a sim needs for this type of lot.
This challenge will run for 4 weeks.
