    They might add shrinking later because that's still a newer feature for PC.

    Another great thing to know with buttons and add to control list (PS4) is, in build mode press X to grab item and then you can press square to send item to household inventory so you don't have to sell it

    @EA_Mage I saw this was posted earlier but I think it is worth reiterating. Full mouse and keyboard support for the console versions would be very much appreciated. The lack of real mouse support is disappointing, especially considering the virtual mouse setup in the console versions.

    You can now resize all items now. Small to big.Enlarge or shrink objects: while having an object selected:

    PlayStation 4: press L2 and R2 + left/right. Please check it out..Thank you and have a lovely day. ^o^

    There's only your library, no gallery at the moment so you can't find other people's creations.

    You can change the colour of hair by clicking on a wardrobe and choosing "change sim". Body shape, as far as I know, can only be changed when creating a new household in CAS or using cheats (but that disables trophies).

    I was under the impression that we could only enlarge or shrink objects? I didn't think we can raise or lower them? Have done this in your game? Did you enable a cheat?

    They made the left and right arrows for scaling then the up and down arrows for height. You don't need cheats for it.

    I will have to try again. I was unable to raise or lower an object. So you don't need to activate any type of MOO? Can you raise or lower any object?
  • sooozeeebeeesooozeeebeee Posts: 665 Member
    @floralney maybe you could tell me exactly which object you raised in your own PS4 console, The Sims4 game, so that I can try and duplicate what you did?

    Erm........ Any hotkeys for PS4

    Any object really. I mainly use it for curtains or paintings. Select the object then L2+R2+up or down.

    @EA_Mage Any chance you can forward a suggestion of adding support for USB keyboards/mouse as i ghink it would definitely help out the game a lot for consoles as many PC ports do use this feature as a work around to more complex key input comands.

    Think* sorry cannot edit typos yet lol.

    Im having issues with the cursor going out of control in build mode. I have an extremely difficult time selecting anything because the cursor likes to switch between the ui screens. Can this please be fixed? @EA_Mage and @SimGuruDrake

    please help! I can't control my sims cellphones, when I move the joystick or the arrows on my DualShock the "arrow" on the screen just moves away... sigh

    Is there a quick way to open the needs tab?

  • JPNekoJPNeko Posts: 296 Member
    What I'd like to know is how to keep the needs tab open all the time. Normally, if you open it, you cannot click on your sims or do anything else until It's closed. It's a bit of a pain to keep opening it often, especially when there are many sims in the household. I've done it before but don't really know how I did it or if it was a glitch.

    In the OP he said if you press right stick with the tab open it should lock it open.
