And I going crazy or did we always have this less of floor options?

for some odd reason a house I downloaded from the gallery my sim was getting a low environment so I changed the carpet and wallpaper **I know odd choice the one I did**...and......since when did we have such a small selection of carpet??? Was it always like this **I am not a builder I hardly use it**

    Yeah unfortunately we’ve never had a lot of carpet choices in game.

    I would hope for the years this game has been out we would have more carpet choices. Especially for my bedrooms. I never like to use wood or tile. Inrl your feet get cold lol

    Yeah, the lack of carpets is sad. I downloaded a few CC swatches for the purpose.

    These days wood is really popular for houses in RL, because carpets are hard to keep clean plus they can house allergens that make people sick. You could always put a throw rug down to protect the toes. :) And yes, there aren't many carpet styles but there are a decent number of color swatches.

    BG before patches gave use just two choices. I've had CC carpet installed for a long time.

    yeah there is quite few carpets
    they are not very common in houses here and im not big fan due to clean freak tendencies so :sweat_smile:
    I just never feel the need that much

    but i suppose they could have given one more clean/textureless basic looking one for like modern look with lots of colors

    and id also love to have tatami ones cause lowkey need

    Yes, TWO! :tongue:

    I found it odd also. But with the tons of rugs, that makes up for it, I suppose. You can resize the rugs using *shift* " [ " smaller " ] " larger, to fit an area.

    Carpets are severely lacking in the game. A plain white/cream coloured one would be great. I really don't know why it's not there, it's so basic.

    No, it's very close but not quite what I wanted... at least on my computer it looks more beige to me.. which is nice too though. Maybe cream was the wrong word but I was thinking whiter.. more milk/whipped cream/ice cream kinda white. But without any weird textures. The texture you are using is what I want, just not the colour. That being said, I havent checked out any swatches since I got tiny living/eco lifestyle/knitting for carpets yet, so if there are some new ones let me know haha!

    Wow, I’ve never really paid attention to the carpets either. I do build often, but hate carpet so I don’t really look at them I guess. My first home was all carpet (other than bathroom/kitchen), and it really didn’t mix well with having cats. My current home is all hardwood/tile, and after pets and kids I would never go back lol. I do love a good throw rug though, both in Sims and RL.

    This is probably the most plain white you can get without CC. I could probably make a pure white one with the texture from my previous screenshot, the "Plush Comfort Carpeting" texture.

    Keep in mind, lighting and other things around project and reflect colours and shades. ;)

    ty! It does look good, and it'll have to do. I don't use CC at all so I do wish they'd release a whiter one, but yeah, it's closer... I think I wish it was "plush" and not "Barely Concrete" for my poor sims feet but it doesn't really make a difference hahaha!!!! THe colour really is close even if it's not what I was looking for and I really appreciate you going through and finding some for me that are at very least similar ) I'm probably just being too picky, lol, I was trying to recreate some rooms with a minimalist style I saw pictures of for one of my sims, but yeah... the colour I wanted just wasn't there. I think I'd be less picky about that if it wasn't "white" which seems so basic, llike if I was looking for a bright pink carpet with roses I wouldn't expect it haha! But what you've shown will still look good even if it's not the same, so thank-you!
