I remember when you first put up Nathalies portret you said that Max would get rid of it and her in a heart beat. But here we are on wife two and he’s still lugging those things around. I can only assume its part of an emotional terror campaign against Myra.
or responsible my super sim finished all the kids stuff and after school stuff and now she flies through jobs she gets in at level 5 and like every day she gets promoted and the bonus always works when she asks!
Adding money to the safe does add to your house value... but its bugged, I just tried to complete the same aspiration on my super sim, I t didn't count so I just left the money in there, when I loaded the game back up the next day the aspiration completed itself, just remember to take the money back out if you sell the safe as you'll only get the $3000 you paid for the safe and not the money inside 🤦🏻♀️😂
@@LivinInSim luckily I hadn't left build and buy mode so could just undo the sale but if I had gone into live mode I'd have been gutted! 300k! But id have just used the motherlode cheat to get it back as it would have been an accident and I'm not one to use cheats! Ever! Unless its move objects 😂
Lol he couldn’t tend to the baby because one of the other Sims was about to interact with it. One of the little boys was coming up to interact with the baby.
Yup. & honestly that’s one of the most annoying things I wish you could set it for kids to not be able to interact with them. They can’t even do anything besides coo at them
I was thinking the same thing. And it's SO ANNOYING. It happens to me all the time. I'll be trying to have a parent tend to the child right in front of them and they keep route failing because some random sim three blocks away has decided they're going to coo at it.
This particular one is similar to the Pet Me-Pet Me-Pet Me interaction glitch, albeit the queue isn't Infinity, haha. But it does just keep queuing until the sibling completes the Meet New Sibling interaction the first time the baby is on the lot with them. It's really hard to cancel, but I think Reset worked. Also, in other situations, if you can't get to a baby, it's most likely another Sim blocking, and only secondarily the position of the bassinet. Whenever a baby needs something, it broadcasts to all Sims on the lot other than Toddlers. It blocks the slot even when they're really far away. Children should be removed from this as well.... I think the Stair Climbing in the tree and stairs vanishing is due to the terrain. But I love what James has done with the terrain, so it's worth it, haha. The house turned out really well--love the Studies of Max Portraits! And the bedrooms are so colorful! Do they have a dishwasher? I think they choose that over a sink generally, so might keep them from running to the farthest sink. It was so cute when one twin tried to cheer up the other before going Cloudgazing.
If you put out one of those bench things at the table, the toddlers will use that. They wont use the table. But then they will be eating at the table in a way.
Candice Berry I recreated this on console (cause we don’t have the gallery 😭😭) and it does the same thing with those stupid front steps... it is super annoying I must say 😂
@@Amanda-qz7ep Are the steps "in" the terrain on Console, ie, does Console have terrain raising/lowering? Just wondering, cuz that's why I thought they vanish, but maybe not?
while moving does reset your collectibles, as long as you still have them, re-putting them in your personal inventory (or, if they're already there, picking it up and dropping it back in) counts as "discovering" the collectible. So, while annoying, as long as you keep all your stuff, you don't have to start from scratch.
you are asking too much of james.. LOL.. No way would he remember ... 1. where he put the collectables (if not in his inv) 2. why he's keeps said collectables. so would just one day randomly sale said collectables (in fam inv or trunk) LOL. 3. just empty his personal inv radomly totally forgetting he was saving collectables at all.
I just finished watching all the previous episodes and this is the first one I’ve watched in “real time” I love James’ approach to naming children - I’m sure they won’t be traumatised in later life about that, not at all!
I'd love to see a giant, 70's style, photo portrait of Max! Sepia tone. The kind with the main 'solid' image in the foreground, and the faded profile portrait of Max in the background. 😁 Anyone know what I mean? LOL
after binging the super sims series for like two weeks straight, all i say now is "and welcome back to the super sim challenge" on EVERY other video when james does his intro lmao
To get evidence for your aspiration thingy, couldn't you use the computers at the secret lab? I'm pretty sure when you have high computer or programming skill or something you can get them faster
does anyone else remember that era where semaj learnt NOT to fast forward too often too fast (at least not go to the super speed) because it messes up wit the game and the sims?? good times. good old forgotten times.
So I finally finished catching up on all three years of Super Sim. It did not take me as long as it should have. I know you're all proud of (and not at all judging) me.
Going back and watching these old playlists of your lets plays it is funny to see how much better you are at managing families now than you were back then. 🤣
James, for the fish collection you can just put them all in Max's inventory and then take them out. It's kind of a nuisance to do, but that'll reset the collection and you'll complete it again
I'm still looking forward to seeing whether Name and Baby are vampires. The only reason I can think of that they should be is that the last house had the Dark Leyline trait? Their needs were too low to see the vampire icon or not. (If their needs were all in the green it would show a little fanged smiley face. It would also show in CAS, but we know how much you hate to use that Semaj.)
Hey James! How about the Backwards-Inwards challenge? The challenge is to build the house from the inside out or, when you are building the inside, have the opposite perspective. Imagine building the front of the house and having to build it from the perspective of the backyard - let the frustration being. When you have the rooms finished you need to place the windows from inside the rooms and furnish and all that. You can place a porch with stairs AFTER you've done the house so don't worry about it. Honestly, I don't believe you can do it but you could try......... >:)
I recreated the outside terrain and basic house shape etc from the outside of this build on console, and I haven’t had any of those weird issues. Except the front stairs deleting.. that happens often, which isn’t at all frustrating..
You should also try and unlock as much of the locked build/buy content as possible - like the stuff that requires you to have purchased store perks, club perks, or played 73 basketball games, in additional to the career locked stuff
DANG SEMAJ I'm also watching the villa house builds with my bf and we're seeing each other tomorrow... don't wanna be spoiled yet before watching the 6th part of that!
Sims 2 six toddler challenge! Hardest thing in the world! Two adults, six toddlers, no outside help (nannies, maids, friends, etc), get all the toddlers educated in talking, walking, and the potty before they are children and without getting any taken away.
Power family moves to a new house, Power family promptly starts glitching out. The kid trying to climb the stairs in the tree was -- well, I can see why you opened the video with it. XD And of course those stairs at the front continue to be a pain -- I wonder WHY they keep deleting every time you build anything on the lot? *sigh* Well, anyway, the place looks nice, and -- despite some issues -- seems like the family is settling in nicely. I love how Max's fame perks mean, even if his performance tanks thanks to a ill-conceived bonus negotiation, it promptly spikes again the moment he goes to work. He is going to just POWER through the careers now! (Er, no pun intended.) And yes, I'm glad you realized that completing the storyline isn't QUITE the same as completing the aspiration. Still, bugging people seems to be a decent way to gather evidence. A little scrabbling around in the secret lab, and you should have enough to assemble your dossier! And then you can just use the keycard you already got as a top secret agent to progress further. :p Ah, the Sims. . .
When I did the same track in the military career the search the stars could never get to complete. Even cheating needs. But not doing it had little impact on promotion.
It would have been awesome, if you switched the two stairs places. Then the basement's stairs could be hidden with a wall and a door. I hope you understand this :D
I miss the speed builds, he's now live streaming his builds.. bummer cuz i hate how long it now takes for him to complete a build. AND all the indecisiveness drives me bat shyt crazy, i now know he's takes as long as i do just picking out a rug.
in the beginning of the video, i think the reason why you couldn't access the babies was because the kids were interfering. they were probably trying to give the babies attention, which would have prevented the parents from doing their job as parents to the babies. hence why i never have freewill on..... i always play with families cause i don't like having a single sim, it's boring.
Think you might have locked up Opie by locking the parents room lol #freeOpie
I came to say the same thing. You can allow pets through doors.
#freeopie
#freeopie
I remember when you first put up Nathalies portret you said that Max would get rid of it and her in a heart beat. But here we are on wife two and he’s still lugging those things around. I can only assume its part of an emotional terror campaign against Myra.
😂😂
When you call to ask for a bonus, it helps if you've completed your daily task and as you mentioned, are in a confident mood
or responsible my super sim finished all the kids stuff and after school stuff and now she flies through jobs she gets in at level 5 and like every day she gets promoted and the bonus always works when she asks!
Quite fitting that Baby got the Independent trait, cause nobody puts Baby in a corner.
Hope he leaves the name as Baby, love Baby Power!
I like how my Piano comment was remembered. Glad that is all James knows about me XP
Thanks for another amazing video! :)
I wish the Sims 4 had a normal telescope like the sims 2 or 3 because that would be nice on one of the balconies 😞
it doesnt? i was wondering why he didnt just put a normal one down when the one he got is so huge
@@Charlieto maybe they could add a normal sized one in university
here from the future to say, they FINALLY added a free update with normal size telescopes. only took 4 freaking years of ppl begging them to do it 🙄😂
Mira actually has the trait where she hates children, so I'm not sure if the family aspiration is fitting for her.
Ooooo please have an alien baby! Has max ever had one yet? That is gunna be fun.
maybe the next spouse should be an alien, has Max even been to Sixam yet?!
YES
YAAAAS have Max get abducted!!!

It's the celebrity Easy Street perk getting him those promotions. Performance doesn't matter anymore.

I put the babies in a locked room for this reason if there are children in the family because they are sooooo annoying about getting in the way.

Super sim, super sim. Does whatever Semaj makes him
The Next Hokage I know poor max is a good guy but he’s just a puppet for James’ goals
Didn't notice the stairs disappeared outside when he built the basement for a while. Those stairs would drive me crazy!!

Livin In Sim yeah, we got it later than PC but had it for a while now ☺️
You can do the collections if you keep all of the items. Moving them into and out of the inventory should count them.
I'm pretty sure this worked for me as well
omg, the cowplant!!! It felt like a pet... poor thing :( lol
Dude you should use the bookshelf door for the vault door

You should make a bust of max and put it on the pedestal because that's exactly what max would do
10:45 "Let's go purchase some bugs" he says, as if he wasn't dealing with enough of them already
Screaming “MONITOR SIMS” at the screen today. Classic James
I just finished watching all the previous episodes and this is the first one I’ve watched in “real time” I love James’ approach to naming children - I’m sure they won’t be traumatised in later life about that, not at all!
Lmao the fact that he thought it was “Mentor other Sims” when it’s actually “Monitor other Sims.”
This takes me back
Oh... i didnt know that was monitoring... oops XD
Alpha Akira I did too, but that didn’t make sense to me for the career he’s in, so I re-read it and realized it said monitor haha
Since max is in the secret agent career, you should add a room onto the basement as a fancy bunker type room with the listening machine etc
I'd love to see a giant, 70's style, photo portrait of Max! Sepia tone. The kind with the main 'solid' image in the foreground, and the faded profile portrait of Max in the background. 😁 Anyone know what I mean? LOL
Move the bottom floor stairs flush with the corridor wall and hide the vault stairs in the new gap
James blessing us with two videos in one day
after binging the super sims series for like two weeks straight, all i say now is "and welcome back to the super sim challenge" on EVERY other video when james does his intro lmao
He couldn't attend to the babies because someone else already was coming to the babies. It wasn't where the bassinets were.
When you thought you were done building the house and not even 10 mins in he’s fixing it 😂
Remodeling is continual in The Sims, doncha know?
To get evidence for your aspiration thingy, couldn't you use the computers at the secret lab? I'm pretty sure when you have high computer or programming skill or something you can get them faster
yeah I think with high programming you can hack the computers and that's a shortcut
does anyone else remember that era where semaj learnt NOT to fast forward too often too fast (at least not go to the super speed) because it messes up wit the game and the sims?? good times. good old forgotten times.
Phélan Kyanna Chai he always forgets
I do my vaults always without entrence and teleport there. It is a secret vault :o)
I love how James stopped himself from swearing at 9:23 😂
Please rename the toddlers, here's two name suggestions: Million and Billion.
Owww!!! Awesome Idea!! Oh shoot, James will never see this post... Danggit! *Super sad face*
Back to where it all started, Windenburg.
Haha i half expected to see Doc's 100 baby house in that tiny lot in strangerville when you panned over it, silly me 😂
So I finally finished catching up on all three years of Super Sim. It did not take me as long as it should have. I know you're all proud of (and not at all judging) me.
Classic Max checking out a picture of himself 🙄😂
Lol my piano has been in my conservatory for 4 years. Shit
just in time as i finished the tour of the new place, nice
if you don't want them going through the back you could just lock the door from everyone and keep it cosmetically
I had the same thought!
Going back and watching these old playlists of your lets plays it is funny to see how much better you are at managing families now than you were back then. 🤣
Remember the tudor mansion you built with Deli ... You forgot all the tombstones of the people Max killed there. Or maybe you just didn't want them.
Rest in peace, dear cowplant. You've lived a long life...
I vote for a throne room with a hall of Max portaits! - not that we're voting lol. Also R.I.P. Cowplant :'(
Put in marble floors for the vault! And gold trims on the Walls
I’m a little behind but please let “Name’s Power, Names Power” in the style of James Bond be a thing at some point.
RIP Cowplant. Another Power victim
Also I think your dog is stuck in the room. I could be wrong tho. Because you put it only for the 2 adults to get in and out
He's def stuck... Note: he never left the bathroom.
James, for the fish collection you can just put them all in Max's inventory and then take them out.
It's kind of a nuisance to do, but that'll reset the collection and you'll complete it again
As soon as I saw the opening, I gave this a thumbs up.
i think you should just remove the fake grass and instead put low plants in the spots where the terrain is iffy, it would look so much less weird.
I'm still looking forward to seeing whether Name and Baby are vampires. The only reason I can think of that they should be is that the last house had the Dark Leyline trait? Their needs were too low to see the vampire icon or not. (If their needs were all in the green it would show a little fanged smiley face. It would also show in CAS, but we know how much you hate to use that Semaj.)
They're not. The thing above them when they were born was just a glitch. Pretty sure it did it for Minimum and Romeo too.
I think opie is stuck because you locked the door
Hey James! How about the Backwards-Inwards challenge? The challenge is to build the house from the inside out or, when you are building the inside, have the opposite perspective.

I think the collectionsbug is fixed. Max completed the magic bean collection in the last home and it is still completed.
I recreated the outside terrain and basic house shape etc from the outside of this build on console, and I haven’t had any of those weird issues.
Except the front stairs deleting.. that happens often, which isn’t at all frustrating..
Ah, so Console does have terrain raising/lowering? Good to know. I think the stairs being "in" the terrain is what causes them to vanish.
You locked Opie in the master bedroom!! Poor baby. Unlock door for pets, James!
When he still doesn't know how to lock the doors correctly 😂😂😂
"Ohh yahh we put the clown pictures there to scare them."
Omg🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 this guy
James is so talented! He has inspired me so much to try new things in game and to be creative on RUclips. Thank you so much! ❤️
Love that beloved late celebrity Brittney Murphy is texting you at 19:16
Your job performance was “poor” which is why you couldn’t get a bonus...I love the new house and ALL it’s quirks😂
“I’m gonna leave this part here” *does like 5 more things*
You should also try and unlock as much of the locked build/buy content as possible - like the stuff that requires you to have purchased store perks, club perks, or played 73 basketball games, in additional to the career locked stuff
DANG SEMAJ
I'm also watching the villa house builds with my bf and we're seeing each other tomorrow... don't wanna be spoiled yet before watching the 6th part of that!
Him walking on the tree omg😂😂
James, you narrate your game plays well. Enjoy your humor and annoyances.
Went to rewatch the first ever episode of The Super Sim Challenge....I need to change my shorts now.....James' intro is very enthusiastic.
I laughed so hard at the beginning of the video, god bless you James

except they dont have the skills to use the stairs yet.

how? id luv to know. please!
Please bug Thorne Bailey & blackmail him. His life hasn't been ruined in this save & maybe that should change. 😂

9:46 I thought that the dog running was a baby lmaoo
Put a little two seater table and chair in front of that window in the kitchen 🥰
Youve made me play the sims again after a few months off yay :)
Ha the beginning
I think the grand piano would fit better in the living room if you just rearrange the sofas a bit. It looks so cramped in the dining area.
There is a glitch with the military career for surveying the stars." You can use the telescope for hours and hours but it never completes the task
20:53 “I’m busy. I gotta work... bEeP boOP BOoP BoOp”
Through the end of the video I was like "please feed the cowplant please feed the cowplant" and then it died :c
"teleporting should be faster"
Literally take 10 minutes to teleport upstairs
The beginning got me hyped hahaha
Don’t you have a closet or hanger in the hall?!
Nobody puts Baby in the corner! 😉
When is the next speed build? Love your vids btw
I miss the speed builds, he's now live streaming his builds.. bummer cuz i hate how long it now takes for him to complete a build. AND all the indecisiveness drives me bat shyt crazy, i now know he's takes as long as i do just picking out a rug.
Maybe Max couldn't get to the babies because someone lese already wanted to take care of them??
james: i want to focus on the functionality of the house , no useless rooms here!
house: Fuckin Broken
in the beginning of the video, i think the reason why you couldn't access the babies was because the kids were interfering. they were probably trying to give the babies attention, which would have prevented the parents from doing their job as parents to the babies. hence why i never have freewill on..... i always play with families cause i don't like having a single sim, it's boring.
You locked the dog in!
