    *"THICCNESS."*
    without another word, he turns and exits stage left. there is wild, deafening applause. lives have changed this day. history has been made. end scene.

    As i said countless times, this platform tool allows what the contrainfloorelevation cheat allowed JUST SO MUCH EASIER. Also, a good tip, if you don't want your walls to disappear when you place platforms, turn what you want to raise or deepen into a room with a wall or a fence and then use those arrows in the window that opens up when you click on the room. Once you're done, you can delete the walls you just created and none of the walls or decorations you had previously will have disappeared. This is much better than building a platform on an existing room because that Would make your walls disappear.

    Columns always annoy me because of that bug with when you put them on a wall and sometimes the column doesn’t go up on corners😩. I love❤️ that we can do split levelling now however I think it would’ve be cool if we could duplicate (or delete platforms base) floor and move platform up so we could use space underneath platform. So in one room can kitchen at bottom underneath a bed area (probably need medium height wall to do it). Be good for tiny spaces🙂.

    But when you try to do an open 2nd floor with stairs you create the "room" with the floor you want gone with a fence. But when I place the stairs they won't work because the game considers that the fence on the landing is still here and I have to delete it manually, I don't remember it ever doing that 🤔

    The real downside of the platforms is that you can't paint the edges. I know you can use half walls but its extra work/hassle/money. Plus then sims can't use the platform/s as stairs because they can't step over the half wall. Hopefully someone makes a mod, if its possible

    Btw james you can put ladders up to platforms. If you put the bunk beds flush against the wall, and had the ladder onto the platform at a 90° angle you could make it look even better

    The one thing I love about the new platforms is that you can make a house on a “foundation” connect to a garage on ground level easier. I did my uncle’s house last night and his house has that setup where you step up into the house from the garage.

    if you remove the ceiling in the basement and then place platforms above it you can have the illusion of a slightly raised basement with windows on the side as well. The windows wont be visible from ground level, but you can see basement details through the windows on the ground floor

  • @cinnamoon1455
    @cinnamoon1455 3 года назад

    Another thing I tested with platforms is sunken furniture. As long as the lower platform is only 1 step down your sims can still access the item on it directly from the upper level. I used it to lower a futon bed into the floor to make the legs disappear and to make some semblance of japanese zaisu chairs for a desk or a table. Should also work with sunken tubs, etc.

    5:24 Really, I don't understand. I ALWAYS could do this before. I honestly don't understand.
    5:07 And then, I tried to rotate some columns that are in corners because how they're placed by default is weird, but guess what, I couldn't. Apparently, you can only rotate them when the columns are not placed in corners. What's the purpose of that? We were asking to be able to rotate them because the placement is weird. Wtf
    Okay, if you are building in diagonal and place some columns, you rotate them at the same angle as the building, okay. Or you want them because it looks better. But what about the corners?? This: 6:48
