I want to know if, after having achieved a low level of fame (ie, 1 or 2 stars) can sims stay at that level?
This would be particularly useful for sims who are, for example, successful bloggers - a low level of fame would be suitable, and IRL not everyone who has some recognition goes on to be a 5 star celebrity.
I personally would be put off this pack if an increase in fame level was inevitable. I hope they can reach a particular level of fame and they can stay at that level if one so chooses.
I think you can 'quit the limelight' at any point so I guess in theory, yes?!
That's not what I meant. I want to know if it's possible to sustain a low level of fame, without gaining or losing it.
Fame decreases over time. Have your sim avoid fame interactions and once it starts decreasing, have him/her do a few 'famous' things to bring it back up. I also remember hearing that it won't drop more than 2 levels, so you could probably get them to level 3-4 and let it drop to 1-2.
Can I stop certain townies from reacting to celebrities? Like you know I don't want Vlad fangirling around them.
Yes, this is a worry to me as well. I have a lot of sims that are not the kind of sim that would go around asking for autographs and I am almost certain that I will see them around asking for autographs when I am playing another household
I’m worried about that too. If it becomes an issue I’ll probably be forced to create a club where they dislike doing any fan type of stuff. I’m really not a big fan of making clubs though so hoping it won’t be an issue.

Interactions have an indicator if it will raise your fame and I think some can lower it so if you pay attention and choose interactions based on that you can probably manage it that way. It might be a lot of work though. There might be a perk point for it as well?
Thanks for the info. Hopefully the livestreams will further clarify the matter
Hopefully it works like the parenthood meters. So it can go up and down depending on what you do.

Ah thanks. I haven't been paying all that much attention to the info coming out.
1.) I'm wondering if you can designate a gated community in other worlds. I would like to be able to have more than one official famous neighborhood in my game.
If you set the game lot trait to all the houses in the neighborhood then it’ll be kind of like a gate community.
And ugh, I don’t wanna sit thru that stream again haha. I’ll wait until the fame + reputation stream which is this week.

Ahh, thanks. Yeah, that could work. I was hoping and assumed there was a lot trait but wasn't sure. I'm not thrilled with the number of lots but I'm personally not starving for space so I think I'm mollified.
Do we have any information on the premades the pack comes with?
I've heard they're bringing in Sims 4 versions of some of the Sims 2 premades, like Dustin Broke and Holly Alto. But can't confirm that. I can see Dustin as working his way up the Criminal career and becoming a famous mob boss, for example.

There's no cinema or theatre in Del Sol Valley. However, I think I saw a large screen TV, so even if you don't have Movie Night Stuff Pack, you might be able to build your own cinema. That's what I did with Movie Night.
I'm thinking of making one out of a bar venue -- if they could tweak the programming so it would attract viewers on a community lot that would be perfect. (I'd also like the outdoor version to be made waterproof, along with the portable DJ booth from Get Together and the outdoor speakers from Backyard Stuff.)

A lot of the game changer's videos of the pack show Holly Alto, Dirk Dreamer, and Dustin Broke in them. I saw a Deligracy video with Dustin in it. They are all three star (B-Lister) celebrities.
Don‘t know if this was already asked, but are we able to use these styling seats for our business to create a beauty salon? (Like Sims 2 OFB) I honestly doubt it, but would be a great implementation..
Has anyone mentioned if these big warehouse doors in the movie studio are functional or just decor? I've noticed that sims enter the studio through the side door rather than the main door which makes me think it's just decorative.

The seats can be used in your home or on a retail lot. You'll need some other way to make money, though.
I have a question I hope someone can already answer for me:
In the videos by the EA game changers we could see that the player can decide how many stars a celebrity sim must have to enter an exclusive lounge. I really like that. But my question is now: Imagine I'd tell the bouncer to let only 5-star celebrities enter the lounge - but I have only one 5-star celebrity in my game. Will the game spawn new 5-star celebrities to fill the venue or will my own 5-star celebrity have to party alone?
Does this mean that some careers will make your sim gain fame passively? So that when you have a chef of level 8 or so they'll gain fame unless you actively disable the fame system?

Sounds like it. I'm sure we'll find out more during the fame and reputation livestream next Tuesday.
Gosh those devs have such a harsh tone the introduction to that tweet could have been a lot softer ... thank god I don’t have Twitter else I would be challenging them on their approach when speaking to their consumers ! It’s disgusting
I don't consider his words harsh in the least. Everybody needs to stop reading into things, that aren't being said. He's just trying to clarify something, no doubt prompted by a question. Perhaps, that question has been asked numerous times and still confusion reigns. So, he just wants to be clear …
Will cheating on your partner lower your reputation like in past Sim's games? If so, will they have to be romantic in public for others to see? And how will other sims act when they see someone with a low reputation?

Will they add a new neighbourhood with the new EP?
Yes, it's Del Sol Valley, with 2 residential areas, 3 lots each, a community lot area, and a movie studio. The movie studio is like the science area, the hospital, and the police station from Get to Work, but your Sim can hang around the studio after acting and change things around if you want to film something else. The lot will go back to normal once you leave, though.

I think I’ll give this a look thru again since I’m bored haha. Thanks.
