I'm trying to make my sim famous. Last time i played with fame intentionaly was years ago, i didn't remember how hard it is π
What is your strategy?
I've bought the video station and have been checking the trends. If i get, for example, a trend in "logic" i record a video of my sim playing chess using the drone...
Do you do the same? Has anyone used the recording cameras?
What do you do to make your sim famous?

@Globiddle23 does the live streaming raises fame? I have used and i noticed that it raises fans but haven't noticed it raising fame. Recording a video with the drone does raise game a lot. What is your expeeience?
I'm pretty sure streaming with the drone definitely raised my fame, as I've used this method exclusively while I go about my regular activities with my sim. It isn't exactly the fastest, but it doesn't take much effort haha
I started making videos with a couple sims, but I kept mixing the online thing that came with City Living, and the Media Production thing that came with GF. I can no longer count the sims who has a media profile by mistake.
PS: I think meeting fans and attending community lots helps building fame, might need to be on a certain fame level for it to tick in, though. Perks can be useful, too, but I never paid enough attention to them.
The one in the middle is used by the RTF mod, for a gold medal Meet & Greet

Reading this thread though, I now want a famous author and painter. I didn't really know that was possible.
My sim is a teen. He has the extrovert and loves outdoors traits. I've randomized an aspiration and he got the "be famous" one. My goal is to make him complete the aspiration.
I thought let's make him an influencer. But i now think it will be easier if he has another way of getting famous and do the media producing on the side... he worked in the creative aspiration as a kid, so even not being creative (per trait) i think i will make him follow his child dream and pursue painting. He will stream his painting sessions for his fans too. He already has 1000+ fans (just not fame stars yet π’)...
Thank you! π
Hello, you are very welcome. if you paint on the digital painting device you can paint very quickly, place them on the wall and sell to a collector for the most cash and fame gain.
It didn't take long since he had to go to the dates for them to become friends (and he couldn't back out even though at first all he did was roll his eyes and groan. lol) I think it took two or three dates for him to warm up. Of course they couldn't have romance for a while but that was fun because eventually they did become boyfriend/girlfriend and she got VERY famous then.
This app is so much better than anything in the game because you can meet random people or choose from a list.
I've also had my sim become an actor and gradually rose in fame that way.
Giving money and paying attention to your social media can help. One of my sims rose her fame by being a stylist. I love that new profession.
For the couple I am currently playing, however, I am making them famous on purpose. Getting a social media account and keep posting selfies and whatnot keeps your status from going down, so that is always a good idea. On top of that I find getting the celeb perk that just randomly give you fame for just being good at something is useful even if you don't want to pursue the rest of that perk tree at all.
Also, of course, do things in front of other Sims like juggling footballs, play instruments, just go to the karaoke bar and sing your heart out...
Sometimes I use the video station, but I try to avoid climbing the ladder of perks (or whatever you call the ones that you can pick for your sim) by just not using my fame points. I usually don't have them create a social network (whatever you call it) on the computer till they are about 2-3 star status. I have never threw one of them meet-n-greets either. Yes, my sim makes it to the top without doing all that stuff. Writing and painting is easy for me because it gives my sim time to go clubbing or care for the kids at home
I find the Actress Career takes a while to get any fame unless you do paint, etc on the side. I make it to level 4-5 of Actress Career and then I am done playing that sim
So the musicians obviously write and publish songs, go on tour (visiting bars/lounges and perform a couple of songs there), record and publish composing sessions and sometimes livestream a private concert or composing session.
They also update their social media whenever they got a new song out or are about to go on tour.
I also had a photographer sim take shots of the famous sims for them and then have the famous sims sell those to a publisher and/or post on simstagram, in my mind those were either photoshots for magazines, albumcovers, tourposters or movies.
If you really want to cheese it, buy a drone. You don't even have to own a video editing station, just constantly livestream everything you do. EVERY. THING.
Livesteam cooking. Livestream working out. Livestream yourself programming. Livestream yourself posing for pictures. Livestream yourself Livestream .
You can earn fame for every boring task in the universe. Livestream yourself cleaning the toilet. Livestream yourself complaining about lack of privacy.
This is great! Thanks for the tips
Oh. One thing: it is REALLY a good idea to upgrade the drone. Especially the battery.
