I like free camera mode a lot for those special angle shots.
Generally, what I tend to do, especially in those smaller rooms, is pause and set up the camera and then let the autonomous "chat" interactions run while spamming the screenshot button. The hard part for me, when doing dramatic scenes, is getting people to not have the dopey default smile. Sims are just so blessed happy all the time.

@DaniRose2143 You can also pause while in that mode by pressing 0, and unpause the same way. Unpausing is kinda risky cause iirc it unpauses on the last speed it was on, but it's quicker than pressing 1 on the other end to get to the first speed. But I do what @luciusstorm said too, spam C during those moments 😆 @luciusstorm There's a smile override mode I used to stop that but it also stops any other emotion expression from being shown. (If they're angry or sad it wouldn't show at all) It did the job for the most part though https://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/details/category/sims4-mods-ScriptedMods/title/smile-override/id/1599043/
@luciusstorm I use the steady sit mod and spam the chat too. There are lots of shots that just aren't possible without that camera mode. 🥰
@BlueSeaWaves I'm not sure if it remembers the last speed or not. I very rarely use speed 2 or 3. 🙂 There are times where pressing 0 again won't take it off pause. 99% of the time it does though. Thank you for the mod recommendation. 😁
So I've been working on the Foxbury dorm some more this evening. I was playing around with some ideas for how to make the most of the small rooms.
This one is pieced together with three different cc items. The headboard is from House of Harlix. The mattress is from Felix Andre. The bed frame is from Ravasheen. The fun thing about it is it doubles as a dresser. It's called "Bedder Than A Couch". Technically it's a daybed but it can easily double as a single bed.
@DaniRose2143 I have to ask how you managed to get a bunk bed to work in a dorm? I tried that once over at Britechester-U and I couldn't place them at all. (Of course, I don't use MOO.)
@GalacticGal I just placed them. No special tricks or anything. 🙂 What happened when you tried? Did they disappear? Turn red? This is my first time working on a dorm. 🙂

To be honest, it was a couple of weeks or so ago, that I shared something. I do not recall anything out of the ordinary happening. When I go in game today, I'll see if I can find it. It was the bar I made from the Batuu pack. I believe it's called Stone's Throw.
ETA: I just checked. For the bar, I thought I had uploaded it, but not so. No icon on it in my library, so I went ahead and uploaded it. It's there, no problems whatsoever, plus I went ahead and added my newest restaurant, Pietro's Bistro. Again, absolutely no problems with the uploads. I checked on both of them in the Gallery. They are there. Now, it's up to what happens when downloaded.
Hey hey. 🙂 The Lovestruck EP is going to delay the start for the reboot. This pack is going to really change how I tell the story. It opens up so many new ideas. I’m going hold off on actual gameplay and writing until I see and learn more about the pack.
I can’t tell you how excited I am for what this does for the story. In the meantime I still have some builds to finish and mods to finish testing. 😃
