Hi everyone and Welcome to my TS4 thread.
I'm a little late getting started over here due to some trouble getting the game up and running. I have an imac and had to do some work, before I could play with the new game. It seems that everything is in working order now.
I've been trying to get used to the new way of building. At first I didn't think I was going to like it at all, but I'm slowly getting used to it. There are some really awesome features I LOVE the ability to pick up your entire home and move it somewhere else on the lot. How cool is that!
I found out just last night, that this also applies to other things like fountains. I was so excited to realize that they can be moved too! I put a pretty elaborate one in the back yard on my WIP and decided it would look better out front. I started to try making a copy of it in the front yard when I thought I'd try just "moving" the entire thing and was psyched when it actually worked!
I still really miss CAS and MOO more than anything... I keep finding myself trying to slide things closer than the game will allow. And I hate that some of the items colors don't really match. Plus all the colors for the exterior seem pretty light. I wish they had some bolder, brighter colors.
And what is up with the edges, not being consistently placed on the homes exteriors? Some of the wall patterns fit perfectly fine, but others seem to place the edge molding only to one side. I hope they fix this with a patch soon.

This is the first home I built in the new game and I wanted to start with a "Starter".
Thanks for looking!
Goodnight!

I completely echo your elations and frustrations with building in TS4. It's like every time I go to build, I discover something wonderful in one breath and something frustrating in the next. It's got me hooked though!
New Beginnings is a very nice home! Very nice exterior of it! The textures of the exterior look nice and it looks nice the types of and how you have placed the windows in the build. It looks very nice how you have done the roof covered front porchway entrance to the home! The stone texture looks great. The flowers look very nice how you have placed them on the front edges of the home. They are nice for sims to see when coming to the home. Nice curved back patio for sims to enjoy sitting on the seat there, enjoying being out in the sunshine. Nice furnishing of the interior. The floral wall pattern in the master bedroom looks very nice! It looks nice how you have placed the bedroom windows on the bedhead wall for sims to enjoy the sunlight coming in onto the bed through the windows in the mornings. Very nice furnishing of the living room. Sims will enjoy sitting resting on the sofa and armchair there, watching the tv or reading a book, having a chat, and at the same time enjoy looking out though the windows to see what is happening outside. The flowers near the tv and on the table behind the sofa are very nice for sims to see whilst sitting there. Great side wall dining area for sims to enjoy eating their meals at.
It is a very nice starter home

This next build is a nice family home. It has four bedrooms and three baths. The main floor is open concept with the kitchen, living room and dining area together and the study is in a separate room on that floor. The lower floor has a master en suite with a private entrance to the nursery, girls room and boys room. There is also a nice play area for the kiddies on that floor. Outside there's a patio for the adults and a small play area out back for the little ones. Really wish we had some more outside play items.

Sad to say, I'm definitely finished with TS3. Much as I miss some elements from it, I was very ready to move on. I especially regret not actually *playing* it more. I spent so much time building, that there was a ton of game content I never got to...like I never even tried the firefighter career!

The Coastal Living looks very special. I just love how beachy it feels
*TheMatteo0's Creations In The Sims 4*
Sweet Rose, thank you for another of your very Lovely reviews!
Hi Kamb, thank you! That's the Best kind of compliment!
Hello Tiki, thank you for your very kind comments!
Bry, I don't think I'm done with TS3 yet, but I can't believe I haven't played at all since I got the new game. I have some unfinished projects I'd really like to finish, so I hope I get some incentive to get going on those soon. I didn't really get to play with everything they gave (um er, sold us)either... Maybe someday I'll get a chance to really Play, with all the worlds and everything else. Right now, I'm just enjoying TS4!
Hi Pally, thank you for your lovely comments!
Yanti! Thank you for commenting both here and in the gallery. Much appreciated!
Hiya Manssom, thank you for the kind comments! Hopefully we will get a beach for the game someday, lol!
Hello Matt, thank you for the very lovely comments and for stopping in for a look!
