- I was able to build all 4 lots included with The Sims 4 Werewolves, today's one was so much fun! Leaving steel frame exposed and letting nature take over this once thriving factory was a fun challenge!

The man famous for using columns in every way imaginable that led to actually naming a sim Column is asking how many columns are too many?! 😆😆
asking the aspiration then any over 25 is too many
My exact same thought :D When he said that I was like oh James, you and your columns lmao

Honestly, this pack wouldn't be this great if James didn't build the lots. I know they often get multiple simmers to build the lots, but it makes sense to just have one person build everything so the world looks cohesive (at least for the community lots). James' attention to detail is amazing! Love the addition of the sewers which supposedly "connects" to the bar. The sims team wouldn't have bothered with that if they did this lot on their own. Kudos & thank you to James! This is the first time that I've actually enjoyed playing without having to renovate or change the premade community lots.
I'm buying this pack solely for this reason. I will never use the werewolves as occults are not my thing. Great job James!! Great job Sims team, I hope they keep this up :)
The lots are definitely a big part of it for me too. Obviously, the dev team did so much work creating the world and the items, etc., but they rarely, if ever, put this much care and detail into their lot builds.
I couldn't agree more! And James really was the perfect guy for this job. I love how he was able to create the standard lots with a little out of the box thinking. It really let's the world shine on it's own. So glad the Sims gave him this opportunity!
They really need to hire James to refresh the base game and Glimmerbrook builds because those were egregiously bad
@@narbiesims2997 Right? I find it so odd that they want him to change odd things for these builds. like where was that energy during spellcasters?
Imagine if you could go back in time and tell 2008 James who built that octagon house with 10000 burglar alarms and neon strip lights that he’d be building official lots for an EA pack
I love the time jumps, watching James slowly turn into a werewolf himself as he was working on the buildings for this pack 😂
Made me laugh 🤣🤣🤣

I would love it if James did ”renovations” of these buildings using all packs and kits and liveedit and cheats just to see what he would do without restrictions.
I think he said he’s going to on stream next Saturday! He mentioned it during the MCC stream.
James STREAM?? I'm dead

@@jennw6809 yes I looked up in ultimate guide, carl's guide, ea forum, discord, reddit, twitter, even twitch but nothin...
I love the contrast between 2022 sims team and the sims team from even a year ago. With James, they're like- "move the terrain down 1mm", "get rid of this tiny air vent", "add a singular window, this doesn't make sense, we worry about our players." With literally EVERY OTHER PACK the vibe is, "no toilet- no problem!", "stairs leading to nothing- sounds exciting", "reuse the exact same base game house? yes please!" "a non-functional kitchen? sign me up!" It's hilarious to me, but I'm living for the evolution.
You're right lol
Exactly what I was thinking. Since when are they so careful about builds? Actually it pisses me off looking at what they released before snowy escape
It's because EA had control before, and they have given control back to Maxis - and Maxis actually cares about the game, it's not just a money maker for them like it is for EA. The Maxis team is passionate about the game and giving players something they are proud of, but EA , well - do we really have to talk about them?
It's like they... hear me out... actually played the game for once and realized all that's wrong with it :D
@@lunabelletheinsane oh wow really I never even heard about that. When did that swap over happen?
I genuinely cannot imagine a sims let’s player with a more versatile building talent than james. He was absolutely the right choice and I would have no issue if he did all future game lots aswell
They should hire him as their official builder haha
Fully agree
Yeah, I think what's most special about him is that he can work extremely well with build restrictions and empty space. His buildings always look interesting and have something to them, even if he can't or won't clutter them up. Sometimes less is more; it makes you paddle back to the basic structure, flow and purpose of a building! I also love seeing him experiment; I think he has a vague vision when he starts, but then tries things out and lets them evolve naturally.
@@alisakumm9165 Exactly!
@@binimbap anybody know cheats for dormant abilities on werewolf? Like transformation mastery, etc....
So now we know that the lots can be decorated well and performing good so they dont have any excuses now 😂
If they don't want to put that much work into them - they're just gonna have to let James (and other sims let's players) do them from now on! :P And I'm fine with that xD
The flooded room is really cool!!! and i didnt even know that it was a thing you could do!?
Love the build! great job
That option came with the pond tool update last year, iirc it was in the patch before Cottage Living EP was released.
James definitely had rags to riches in mind when he put showers on this lot 🤣
it also has a gym on the lot so showers makes sense
The funniest part is he’s made two public lots that would both be a big help for rags to riches, but when he plays, he doesn’t let himself use public lots…
The funniest part for me is that you don't actually need them once you become a werewolf, as you can basically live completely homeless and be totally fine :D
@@dewberrystar anybody know cheats for dormant abilities on werewolf? Like transformation mastery, etc....
And the easel on the second floor lol
Industrial style buildings like converted factories are something we all know James love, so I can't wait how this will turn out.
Oh James, perhaps Nina and Angus in your Let's Play could restore the factory to glory? Instead of building a retail empire, or giant mansion for themselves, they could get involved in the community spirit and funnel all their money into repairing this!
Yeah they don't care about becoming millionaires because they are werewolves who don't really care about mainstream society, but they do care about the community that adopted them.
That’s such a great idea!
love this idea
The upstairs loft area was perfect for a kids area just in case anyone needs inspiration! This pack was the first one I didn’t feel the need to replace all the lord with my own!
Imagine being a werewolf, with incredible sense of smell, living next the sewer. 😂 Tough life, tough life
Yeah, that secret tunnel system would smell horrible lmao they'd be holding their breath the entire time 😂
Tbf I’ve never known a dog to mind smells we hate as much as we do?
@@tairneanaich that's a good point actually! I think werecats would care a lot more lol
@@tairneanaich yeah but that's a human, well, a former human. They know what smells good and what's not.
i'm pretty sure they're meant to be storm sewers, so there wouldn't actually have ever been human waste in them, just rainwater
I visit libraries the most in the sims (second being cafes, third being gyms) and it's so refreshing to see one that I don't immediately have to reno. GG I love it
Except having to turn all the toilet paper rolls to over rather than under 😆
Honestly, I don't visit a lot of community lots in the sims because I don't like them. But when I love this lot in particular so much, that I think I'm just going to have my sim live at the library, LOL.
Only thing I'd do is turn the wrecked room into a mini kitchen with random appliances.
@@annienunyabiz6627 anybody know cheats for dormant abilities on werewolf? Like transformation mastery, etc....
lol you could reno the empty room into a cafe section, then you'd have everything!
I know why they chose James for this pack. His love and attention to the "rags to riches vibe" and having builds look run down and used really led to amazing builds. He appreciates the less prestine aspects of builds and sims and it proved so integral here! Awesome job!
When I saw this factory in the trailer I was like "This looks like James would build it. He's gonna love this pack." And here we are 😂
Take a shot every time James says “the cracks and scratches are coming later” in this build series
Something I noticed while playing is that I spent more time than usual just looking around, seeing how things looked with the walls up all the way, etc. I usually don’t bother, but James puts so much attention into his builds that it’s actually worth taking the time to check out every angle. I really appreciate how much he considers things that would probably otherwise be overlooked :)
James, all the builds look so good! But this is probably my favorite one of all time. Sad to see the flooded room didnt work, it looked so cool!
Agreed! I wish the sims team tracked down the pond issue and fixed it rather than have James remove it.
@@GMoscillo that’s quite the ask while they’re also developing a pack on a deadline. Programmers aren’t miracle workers you know
@Cilibi They might not have been able to fix it before the deadline, but having it removed most likely means they will never fix the problem, which would not be optimal in the future as having this feature could have made for a lot of interesting builds, besides think of what could have been done for newer packs with this added feature, which will not happen since they will not work to fix the problem.
I really do not like it when people are giving the game companies permission to not fix problems in their games, yes fixing the problem might take a while, but not fixing it is a lot worse than having to wait a little longer for it.
@@Skullost I’m just saying it’s a lot to expect of the devs. They really don’t have a say on deadline and most likely have to move on to the next project immediately after finishing one. I’m not saying it wouldn’t be nice to fix this kind of thing, but with how terribly managed the industry is it’s kinda unfair to expect the devs to fix a problem they didn’t anticipate without time, money, and support from the higher ups.
I guess I just think blaming the devs is pointless and pointing fingers at the wrong people. The devs are working hard.
@@Cilibi Sometimes the devs are to be blamed, sometimes not, I hope Maxis takes the time to fix some of the problems present in the game.
I think the biggest issue with the gaming industry are the players, since most complain about games/companies for never fixing all the issues in their games, yet still buy all their games, which only prooves to the higher ups that people actually do not care about the issues they are complaining about. :(
was waiting for this one specifically to come out - obsessed with this lot :)
Same! I have literally never seen anybody remove walls and roofs to make a place look broken down like that, and it turned out so cool!
All the buildings in the world are great, but this one has to be my favorite!! It's really cool!! Can't wait to play in it when I get this pack.
I want to buy this pack, just because James built the builds, haha.
SAME!
It's actually a pretty solid pack. I haven't had any bugs or issues if that's something you're rightfully wary of lmao And James' builds are great and super convenient. I don't have to leave the world if I don't feel like it to have my sim work out, for example. I never go to libraries when I'm normally playing but my sim spends a lot of time in this one cuz it's just legitimately cool
SAMEEEE
I love the pack b it’s so much fun
Same!!! I've been on the fence but his builds make me want to buy it
This lot looks so good! I think when I get the pack I might try and renovate it as a community space from Eco living, having the run down version as normal, then renovated/updated as maker space etc
The spandrels are awesome! I noticed the yellow spandrels during the EA walkthrough. Omg I’m so excited. I would totally use those for my warehouses. No more planks.
I would love an abandoned observatory turned lot 🥺 like a Moonwood community center idk idk!!! You have such a good balance with builds!
Brilliant idea!
@@M3ichelle i always see those sort of “abandoned lots” irl. I feel like the sims is so nice bc you can build an idea. That refurbishing something back into its glory days essentially. Just seems so nice! Almost shocked that there isn’t an abandoned observatory lot given the telescope objects, moon phases, werewolves, etc. really the pack overall. Or should I say, the Wolfpack ;p
Simproved just posted a multipurpose community lot for this pack!
@@apatosaurusanna thanks friend! 💚
@@apatosaurusanna I just wanna add again I appreciate the suggestion! Amazing builder
Aww, that flooded room that you could only see through the inside windows was so cool! Shame it didn't work properly
the flooded room was awesome, so sad that didn't end up working out!
James transforming within 7 secs of video like a true werewolf 😂
I think now that the game is out, Going back doing a "No restrictions" touch up to the lots would be neat to see.
Loved all your builds, James!
And I have a suggestion, you should renovate the library with an elder Hazel like it was her last renovation before she pass away.
Amazing - this is my favourite build from the pack, so it's so cool to see how it came to be. I'm so happy that they asked you to build all the lots for this world, and you did such an awesome job!
I was sad to see the loading dock go and didn’t really understand the problem with it? It still would have looked good and made sense with just the shutters and no platforms. Besides that this build was amazing and it was so cool to see the evolution.
This is by far the best lost that has ever been officially released by the Sims. I want to reinstall the game and get the pack just for this.
Awesome building! Very important to have multipurpose community lots in small worlds ! Good job 👍
Honestly this is one of my favorite libraries in the game already! I love seeing how you brought it to life!
Seriously, I'm always blown away by your creativity. Great job, this is my favorite lot in the new game, but fantastic lots all around!!!
I loved this building! It really helped set the mood for the town. You were really in your element in this pack! I turned your building into a restaurant/ lounge but kept all the structures and just decorated the inside to match. It’s awesome
James was THE man for this job 👏
I love this community center/library🥰 It’s functionality for the game is amazing and it’s crazy cool looking😎 James, what an honor to be the sole builder for the lots in this pack…they are cohesive and you can tell a lot of thought was put into each build😍
could you have used the pond tool in the sewer area to partially flood the area between the platforms? would have been really cool since water would/could collect there with it being open like that, now I have to load into my game to try it lol
I had this same thought as I was watching... there would be water in the old sewer area. I mean, it rains here, right? And that water would probably get stagnant.
Woahh.. amazing idea!
Well dang the answer is no the game won't let you with fountains or pools either 😛
Love seeing your process in making these lots. They are amazing
I was just thinking "Did James post today?" 😂 I'm gonna get mum and we're going to watch this video. Have a nice day James ❤️
James in his element is the best thing. All of the builds have been AMAZING and I'm not even a fan of industrial / rusty looks but like I said, you managed to make people love it
Ahhh I love this lot! But also sad the flooded room didn’t work out. It was so cool!
I love your designs in the game and will only make minimal changes to the buuilds (since I have access to cc and more DLC, its not the fault of builder at all)
Getting to see you build and hearing the thought process is so darn good. I currently live for your official build videos xD
Thank thank thank you for pushing for matching world textures! That has been one of my biggest frustrations with certain worlds! Your builds for this world have all been so good and so suited to the environment, and I love that they have community builders working with them in early pack development because the results are great but also because feedback like - please please please include terrain paints that blend into the world.
the pond room was such a cool idea, it's too bad it didn't work out in the end! but this is definitely my favorite lot in the new pack, it looks so cool
The build looks cool as hell, but I still can't imagine the library or the gym operating in a snowstorm with seasons 😂 I wonder if NPCs will be freezing there.
…do werewolves freeze, or does their fur keep them warm? Has anyone tested with werewolves and seasons?
@@bookcat123 in my experience, werewolves don't freeze as long as they are in werewolf form. Vampires can burn in the sun while in the "main" library though.
When i first saw this lot in game, i thought it was a set piece, but im stoked to actually play in it and that it's functional. You did an amazing job!
I love that they are reaching out to Simmers and having them build the lots. As you can see James took note of things that he wanted in the world for his gameplay and it will greatly benefit everyone that wants to also do a Rags to Riches gameplay.
I really like how the library is such an amalgam of things that the community would want and put together, like the plants on the inside and the easel and the different chairs and fitness equipment. Because there's usually so few non-residential lots in occult packs it really makes sense that, andespecially in a werewolf community plus one that lost that logging business, the community as a whole would come together, it's very nicely done!
Man -- this was a pretty cool lot, I have to admit! I like how the "abandoned factory" idea came together -- all those exposed metal spandrels look really cool! I am dutifully impressed. :)
This is probably the best and most creative pre made lot we got so far. Like other Simmers made builds in previous packs were fine but James really outdid himself. Love how he puts so much story into those build.
I can't imagine how stoked you where doing all these builds! And i'm loving every single one of them. I myself love to add accentuating items like the yellow you added in this build, and you didn't overdo it either. I liked how you kept the theme of abandoned factory in your head and didn't make it perfect, for example making the restroom the size that it is. When i first saw this lot in my game I was like, why the hell is this restroom so big? But then i saw your video and it all made sense! So bravo James! Well done :D
Sitting here refreshing RUclips until the video posts! LOVING these builds. I hope you do more for official packs because your creativity really makes all the difference.
brilliant job! They definitely picked the right creator for doing the builds for this world. SO pleased. I don't think I'll actually renovate the lot but actually add to it from other packs. An Ecolifestyle dumpster seems perfect..... some City Living garage doors...
Lady Bigwallet's Emporium prepared you for this day. 😁 I'm loving all the builds, James! Everything has been phenomenal.
I really love that EA is not only choosing creators to build lots in packs but also now getting to see the process behind them. I’ve really enjoyed seeing all the attention to detail. Makes me appreciate the lots more while playing.
James attention to detail is insane. I love this.
I have my werewolf sleep in that overgrown room all the time.
All the lots blend in so well, almost too well 😂
I want James to create a lot for that blank lot so I can put something there that’s not just blank and I can treat like a community lot since my sim just vibes outside with her werewolf traits. 😂
Every build in this pack blew me away. Well done James! I’m so thankful you were selected to work with the team and I’m glad you got to put your stamp on a game you’re so passionate about. Way to go 😊
Immediately happy when I saw that you uploaded! Great job with the builds, really excited for this LP
I actually really enjoy watching this process! We've always known there are restrictions and rules to the basic Sims lots, but to actually watch the lot progress through the review steps and having James explain it all is just wonderful! I hope that they do this with more packs in the future - I don't think they can get James to build ALL of them, but having one Simmer help out on a pack goes an amazingly long way in bridging the gap between the Gurus and the Fanbase. Thank you for recording ALL of this and taking the time to bring us along James!! I learned so much.
So proud of James and his work on this pack! His excitement makes me so happy for him. :-) Sims team picked the right Simmer for the job.
love how they pointed out the pond water disappearing, even though its been happening for like everyone as like a bug. ive had it happen too.
8 months late to the party but I just found out that you built the lots in the Werewolf pack and I wanted to let you know I ABSOLUTELY love them. This particular one might me my favorite in the whole game.
I love seeing the process of how these werewolf builds change and evolve, and I've never seen a build like this before, truly amazing work. I'd love to see the sims touch-up the base game builds and earlier packs now that we've got platforms and terrain etc...
James' glee is contagious! Watching this process is giving me good vibes toward the franchise. I thought I wasn't into werewolves, but the delight from my favorite content creators is rubbing off on me. Must have this world and its aesthetics. Thank you so much, James, for making these videos!
James, these builds are phenomenal! You're at the top of your game my man, absolutely amazing!!!
James was 100% the right choice for the builds for this GP... This one is my favorite build he did! AMAZING!
After seeing all 4 builds, i can say the Sims team chose the right person for the task. I honestly think that the builds are the best thing about this pack and it wouldn't be as good if someone else built them. You did a fantastic job 👏
These build videos have been so fascinating to watch and I am so glad we got this sneak peak into the process. As everyone has said the builds are all top notch and I love hearing the care and detail you put into them (like ensuring no floating lights or a clean view looking up).
The pond room was my absolute favorite part!! What a creative idea.
I just finished watching videos of the other lots you built in time for this one! Cheers!
Edit: Absolutely thinking of getting Werewolves just for that beautiful metal bookshelf. Brings me back to when I used to work at my uni's library.
Once again, THANK you James for showing us your progress and for an awesome build that looks and works so well. It's funny you asked us to think about how the lot would look if renovated as I was wondering that as well. I was thinking about how it would look if the community got some kind of grant to do some of that.
You've done such a great job with this lot, James. Your creativity is insane!
I am proud of you. You did an amazing job on these lots. They made a great decision choosing you to do these builds
It's super fascinating to see how it all came together, from now on EA should only ever hire creators for their world builds because clearly, their own builders suck :D
I already asked this before but could you give us a rough timeline for long this actually took? It would be interesting to know when EA startes with the world build and how long before the pack comes out it is actually finished. I know nothing about game design but I would guess you probably started like last fall/winter?
James, I have to say after watching all of these and your builds getting pretty much accepted by the Sims team in the first try: I looove how your brain works! Such fun ideas! And in a style not all people (me included lol) can pull off! Props to you! It makes me actually want to have this gamepack!
This is my favorite lot in the pack. I was focused on gameplay when I got the pack, so I didn't really look at the lots at first, just a quick glimpse, so every time I came back to this one, I'd notice something new like the big telescope or the empty room.
I love the idea of a library being the big community hangout place.
So far, my only changes to it have been to add a robotics table to the former pond room and I plan to add a woodworking table to it, too.
I have an idea for how tro make walls look like they've fallen down, but not fully. Half-walls in varying sizes going down to the smallest, and then maybe to cover up the harshness of it, using plants like ivy and things to cover the edges so it just looks like it crumbled away and was covered over time by nature? I'd love to see you maybe try this out on a future build? the build looks amazing, uoi can really see what you were going for in the way that you built it
He tried something like that next to an easel.
@@samara.morgan that's not really what I was thinking of though
@@sqbrex oh, ok :)
Was waiting for this video since the first build video of this pack, amazing work James!
Thank you so much James for showing us the whole process for these builds. It was one of the most interesting pieces of Sims content in a long time. I really enjoyed seeing the builds take shape across the revision process and your commentary on those.
Why the hell would I want to restore this masterpiece?! XDDD The absolutely best part of you people building lots is that I don't have to restore it and I can play. Because don't get me wrong, I love renovating houses (and no, players don't want generic starter houses), but I honestly hate redoing community lots... So thank you very much for doing all of this so perfectly! :D
James was the perfect one to design the lots for this world. He did an amazing job on each and every one. Really excited for him. :D
Your lots are amazing! The way you used the terrain too made everything feel so.. Organic. It's the best lots in a pack without a doubt
The houses are awesome, but the bar lot and this lot are definitely my favourite!! It's always great to see James' passion come out in his builds!
this has been so cool to watch all the phases and changes. great job semaj!!
James, you did such an amazing job on all of these builds! This pack would not be what it is without your contribution. Your creativity, and gameplay thoughtfulness really shine in these videos, and I think everyone who gets this pack will have so much more fun with it because of your genius and hard work. Thanks for being such a blessing to the Sims community!
thanks for sharing these behind the scenes processes! I really love seeing how the game is developed
I've liked all the builds, but I think this one is my favorite lot. I really liked the format of the build videos with going through the review process at each stage and showing the incremental changes done. I'm looking forward to more of the LP in this world.
I think I can speak for everyone in saying can you pass on to the sims team we want more of this. Its so much better when people that play the sims make these builds because they know what works and what doesn't. Please no more missing doors and toilets like previous packs had with lot builds. This actually made me buy the pack.
This looks so great James! Definitely in your wheelhouse and you must be so proud that the team asked you to build all the lots for this world. No simmer deserves that honor more than you! My favorite part of the video is when you said that you couldn’t wait to see what the sims community would do to renovate this building. That’s the sign of a true artist… They’re not afraid to have someone improve upon their work! Thank you so much for your years of contribution to this Community… You’re the reason I started playing the Sims five years ago!
Your creativity and your eye for detail always make your builds incredible. This is such a unique build and I'm so happy everyone getting this pack will be able to play in it and appreciate the work you have done
I have really enjoyed watching James building all the buildings for this pack. He is so talented and I hope the Sims team continues to do this sort of collab for future games.
Definitely one of the best community lots we've ever gotten in a new world! So versatile, and it seems they really listened to you about suggestions and ideas you had about how it will useful in-game. Congrats James!
It’s so trippy hearing that James say his Glimmerbrooke (I might’ve spelt that wrong idk I haven’t played that pack😅) factory build was practice for this one. Meaning he’s known about werewolves coming since ROM? That’s just so crazy cool to me. I’m not surprised that he was able to keep the secret that long or anything but like it feels a bit funny cause I never suspected he was hiding anything. Excellent work all around!
The builds are so good James! I love watching my werewolf run past them as they rage.
When I first saw this lot while playing I thought it was just a really rad shell. When I realised I could interact with it I just thought hell yeah James good job.
This is literally the best sims 4 game build ever. I hope they get you to do the next pack/expansion 😭😭😭💞💞💞
