Thanks so much @lisa17ann !!! Wow --- I'll reread that again, and post any questions I have --- I will try using the alt key today on something and see if it works.
Your very welcome @coolsim9999999 I'm happy to help in anyway I can and that is the purpose of these challenges to be a help to us all to improve on our building skills and most importantly to have fun while interacting with other builders!
It's midnight now here so I'm off to sleep but, I'm sure if you have any questions @Cbear13@Pebblycat or @rosemow will be happy to help answer any questions you might have. And, more often then not the lovely people who join these comps are often very helpful as well
Thank you @lisa17ann and @Cbear13 for the feedback When I download your room shell I thought Wow what a beautiful shell can I say that it was beautiful that I saw something in it and the tactical map I just had to do an alien spaceship I dont know why but it came together so quickly I dont do this way of decorating it's a rare that I do this bit like my fun park and my christmas house that I did last year sometime ago and thank you to you and the other judges your feedback they really do help in our builds and always appreciate it , but dont expect to be like this all the time because I will make some mistakes in them and thats how we learn from them and you're a great teacher and lisa for us.
@chips46 I think that room was our favourite so far from you well deserved win it was perfect in every way.
@emere your room also blew us away and if it werent for the rug it would of been a tie because it was amazing
@equuest you have improved in leaps and bounds lately and we are so proud that you are now entering in advanced and you proved you belong in this level with this room, we were super impressed and know the scores were super close
@JasonAnthonySterling fantastic room yet again showing your unique creativity that we love and if it wasnt for those pesky disappearing walls it would of made the decision for a winner impossible.
@lsnishi and @Ainsleyf wow did you two make this a super tough decision and was a matter of a point between you, so proud of the improvement in both of you and both your rooms were simply amazing. @lsnishi you will do fine in the advanced level and I feel @Ainsleyf will be joining you very soon hehe
@MyFavoritedesign and @mannanna oh we felt bad enforcing those pesky rules with the walls but know we thought both your rooms were so beautiful and sometimes you have to bend the rules for creativity haha. Fantastic creativity in you both and @MyFavoritedesign the butterfly tree was simply beautiful.
@Hazel3166 what a way to enter the challenges hehe great room cant wait to see more from you I get so excited when new people join
@coolsim9999999 stick with it practice makes perfect you did a great room, when I started I was really bad with everything from decoration to placement and it just took time and practice, I look at some of my first builds now and think what on earth was I thinking and trust me yours look a lot better than mine did haha
I felt I had to add a few extra comments on this challenge because I want you all to be proud and happy with what you created, we loved this challenge and we don't expect perfection in every build but regardless of who wins everyone did a fantastic job.
I know this is a competition and everything is judged but I do hope none of you take the winning and losing to seriously and not take it to heart if you don't win. I can easily say there has never been an entry we have not liked and most of the time the scores are so close (by a point) that it really doesn't make one better than another.
Keep up the fantastic efforts and creativity know that we learn so much from you guys also on what you build and create and to us all of you are winners
Congratulations to all the winners! And congrats @chips46 and @Hazel3166 on your rooms being favourited by Maxis They're awesome rooms!
I loved your Steampunk boarding gate room, so creative and I love how you've decorated it! @JasonAnthonySterling
Thank you so much @lisa17ann for your post about placement, that was really helpful for me too! And yes it does help seeing pictures of examples
@coolsim9999999 I also discovered when using the Alt key it does different things depending on when you hold it down. This is for when you've already placed an object in the game and want to move it.
So if you hold down Alt first and then pick up the object, you can 'spin' the object in it's place to any angle you want. And if you pick up the object first and then hold down Alt you can move the object to any location you want. Took me a little while to figure that out Hope that makes sense! And sorry if someone else has already said the same thing and I haven't read it
I actually have a question too if anyone can help...
I used debug to find some bakery items and I was just placing all the objects that looked useful on a table or on the floor for later use. But now I've gone to move the objects on the floor and they aren't able to be picked up! So I've got some baking trays randomly stuck on the floor in the middle of my bakery Does anyone know how I can fix this? Or will I have to start all over again?
Also, a question for the judges, I know that a retail counter is a requirement for the bakery, which I have, but can I use a regular counter with a cash register placed on it instead? It just looks better for the style I'm doing.
Hello @flowerofavalon87
Try building a small room around the edges of where the items are stuck, then delete that small room. See if that helps to remove the items.
@Cbear13 ---Thanks for your nice comment. I'm glad you like my creativity and my rooms.I'm glad I do some placement stuff etc. right !
@flowerofavalon87 --- Thanks a lot for explaining both ways to use Alt! I understand !
@flowerofavalon87 and @rosemow --- I did that tiny "room" trick around an item once on my version of the Granite Falls Forest lot in the national forest. After I did that, the cupcakes went away ! I wanted my Sims to have a nice treat on their camping trip ! Some debug items don't do that, but you have to find out which ones. Now, if I place an item, and I think it's going to do that, I push the undo button right away, and then, it's O.K.
How are we supposed to place like cakes and cupcakes from debug without them disappearing? Is that not the correct way to do it, or do we have to place Sims have have them bake stuff?
Origin ID: Okest3r_13 Check out my Sims 4 creations!
Rosemow is correct here- it won't transfer even when your sim has baked it themselves- that goes for on table display and the counter style displays from GTW. The items will transfer in a fridge however! So, I'm going to take pics of the windows and display counters full of treats and then store them in the fridge for upload. I'll just make a note on the gallery about the problem and that the display stuff is in the fridge for anyone who downloads it.
EDIT: This is a new glitch as it used too transfer in rooms.
Thanks for your words @Cbear13@lisa17ann I still have fun with this challenge no matter if I win or lose For me now it seems more difficult to know what to do Maybe I have done too many rooms But I'm working in my bakery, it is a yummy challenge
I am happy to judge the window displays from pictures if food is diappearing bu you must take clear pics of it and add it to your entry form. grrrrr silly glitches

Just a little note to everyone , that there has been issues with food not uploading/downloading when used in rooms.It works okay when in lots though. Try testing with your room builds to see if the food transfers. This AHQ EA thread refers to the issue
