I've been struggling for so long trying to figure out how to do this after the patch and this tutorial was so nice and clear and easy to follow, thank you so much. 💟
OMG YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER!! I have been looking forever how to make NO CC art and finally you are the only one who has able to show how it's done!!! thank you thank you thank you! I just tried it out now and it worked!!
It's Jojo Rose thank you so much for your sweet words! I’m so glad you found this video, I understand that frustration, I had it for a looong time until I figured it out myself 😁
No need to be gentle with you over this tutorial..... This was AMAZING!! Thank you so much for taking the time to teach us this. I appreciate it so very much!
As you already know, I don’t actually build in sims, but I really enjoy watching others do it. This video is so interesting because it seems like a “behind the scenes video”, especially because I noticed a lot of people asking you how to do these painting. I’m really glad you made it and I’m so proud of you for doing the voiceover. Your voice sounds amazing and full of knowledge and wisdom 🥰♥️🥰
OH. MY. GAWD. YOU. ARE. A. SANITY. SAVER! I was trying to create my first custom paintings but they kept getting flagged as CC!!! Doing it in the Legacy version worked!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS GOING CRAZY 😭😭😭
Hi! Thanks so much for this. I was wondering what dimensions you use for those pre-made paintings at 00:53? I've been looking for a way to better centre my paintings and you've clearly nailed it. ☺
Hi! I haven't really, if you fast forward to 02:47 for example you'll know what I'm talking about 😭 those images at 00:53 came framed when I downloaded them 😢
I was trying so long because it wont work with no CC anymore. So you're going to save my day, if that will work again with Legacy. I will try right now, thanks so much :-D
Nathalie Sims it works for me 🥰 unless they’re introducing updates that doesn’t allow you transferring files between editions, this should be a long lasting way of making paintings 😁
The best tutorial on the web!!! Thank you. :) I create images this way, and you helped me do it without CC after the update. I have one question about the filter. Does the image filter mod still work for you? Mine, unfortunately not :(
So I used to create gallery art when the Origin app was around, but can't seem to figure it out for the life of me now that PC/Windows users were forced to switch to the EA app. Does anybody know how to do this now with the EA App?
Thanks! Shame they no longer have the option to just simply paint an actual custom screenshot like you could in Sims 2, back then you could just have your sim paint any screenshot you downloaded from the internet or replace a temporary one. It was such a unique feature.
@@mysimsdreamhouse322 It was! At the time it was rather impressive! And so easy too. Maybe EA will add it back, hopefully. And custom radio stations and our own custom worlds, and vehicles. These are my most wanted requests.
Simdrew1993 I don’t know about that... it seemed like they were secretly targeting the paintings from references. With every big update, I had to find a different way to do paintings 😅
Can I use items from packs that I dont have? Also, what item can you recommend for square, and landscape photos? Im trying to give this a go. Thank you!
Any way to flip the 'reference camera' into landscape orientation? All of my images are landscape orientation, eep! Thank you dearly for this video, you've given me new hope for creating nocc images!
False alarm! I just gave them master photography+the best camera and then was able to get it all working with photography-large photo, landscape orientation, no flash-YAY! I didn't even need the clear-filter+ mods so that seems to have saved a bunch of time, too. Didn't get flagged via my iMac, now final test is placing the room via PS4. Thanks again, this really opens up so many possibilities for me! :D
Hmm, they placed no issue on PS4, but the quality seems a bit rough. Perhaps paintings are higher quality? I’ll use painting method next time when I do some portrait orientated photos. I like how the creator’s name appears on paintings (doesn’t on photos). Anyway, it feels like a great first try! Sure, a first try that took 5-6 hours total including research, trial & errors, but I enjoy that ‘hunt’ too, so what the hey! 😝 I need to work on getting better feature images of the photo-wall, too. None that of the day/night settings looked great. I’ll have to search for a mod.
@@shtahfari Hey! I'm glad you got it working. The reason why I don't use photography is that it has made trouble for me before, meaning it would randomly mark cc. But I'm glad it works for you!
I was surprised I was looking for those today, but I still couldn't find any (maybe wrong search term, I don't know). I decided I would make some www.ea.com/en-au/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/B1FB3E1E9AAA11EB8E3E16881702A645 (probably 7 months too late for you lol sorry :))
Please help! I can't figure out how to build on two lots at once. I enabled moveobjects and free build but i have no access to build on the lot next door
@@chillout00 not really, the best you can do is have your painters make masterpieces but they will still not look as clear as the one with the “magic” mod 😁
hi! idk if you're still here but anyways. i do exactly what you're doing in the video but my paintings get that annoying "modded" flag already in the legacy edition when i try to add the wall to my library. i have no mods and no cc (except the painting i made via ts4studio to use as a reference) in the legacy game mods folder. do you know what else can cause this problem?
Hi! I honestly can't think of anything else than trying to re-do it. Or have you done this already? if you did it twice and got the same result, there's really no point in doing it a third time. I've seen people starting a new game to fix this problem but also have read that it doesn't always work. It's kinda hard to say since I haven't encountered this problem myself... but then again, it's been a while since I made any paintings..
hi i did all these steps exactly, but when i go to load the wall in the gallery it doesn't give me the option to remove the "modded" option. and it says "autodetected custom content included in this item" even when it is a painting by reference, I don't understand what I'm doing wrong ???
Ari Ari it shouldn’t mark modded to begin with, once it’s marked you need to delete them and start again. The best way to ensure they’re cc free is to disable all mods. You might have some cc in the game that’s triggering the paintings to be marked. Let me know how it works after you’ve disabled mods in the legacy edition.
@@mysimsdreamhouse322 thanks for your answer♥️. I'm playing the regular version, does that change things or not? I have no CC content the only file in my mod folder is the paint. Also when I take a picture of the painting and upload it to the gallery everything works fine, It only happens when I paint from reference, so yep I haven't figured out what I'm doing wrong lol :(
@@IAriAri if taking a photo works then there's that :D but I found it that photos vary, it may look like it is not marked cc but once u put them in a house they mark the build. I use both versions so I can keep my paintings clean of cc. I paint in legacy and then move the trays in the normal version :) just like I say in the tutorial
@@mysimsdreamhouse322 I finally found what I was doing wrong, I followed your advice, I did everything again and it WORKED !!!!!! Now I just have to download and add the mods for the filters and etc. Thank you very much for your help and your kindness, you are the best!! sorry for bothering you I am a complete noob with this paintings stuff and mod stuff ♥️
Ari Ari Don’t you worry about it! I was so frustrated when I first started doing paintings, and with every update I had to find another way to do it 🤦🏼♀️ but I think this way is gonna last 😄♥️ so I’m glad you figured it out ! Happy painting! 🥰🥰
Vanessa KayTy Vanessa KayTy do a “sims 4 legacy” search or go in game properties in origin, disable origin and select 32 bit. Hope I was clear. Let me know if that helps.
mysimsdreamhouse I did figure it out and it’s working, but now the legacy version of MC command centre isn’t working so I have to do it the long way, take care of my sims needs then build up her paint skills, the cheat to max out the paint skill doesn’t work when I put it in the cheat bar. Thank you for getting back to me :-)
Vanessa KayTy that is weird, just to make sure, do you enter “testing cheats on/true” before entering the skill cheat? 🤔 I didn’t use mcc to cheat their needs either it was all from the game. I have no mods in the legacy edition
Paintings should not mark CC if you follow my steps exactly. I just checked now, and it still works, the updates didn't affect my method. Make sure that is not something else that makes the paintings mark cc, like cc on the actual lot where you are painting, or sims walking near the lot wearing cc :)
@@mysimsdreamhouse322 I think my first attempt failed because I went too fast in your video, however, if I put my Sims in 32bit, it refuses to open :( shame.
Touki if you follow me on Instagram, you can send me a video to show me 🤔 I have no problem in switching between versions and it’s all so quick. I’d like to help you find the error 😁♥️
I’m new to making paintings so I have a question, is it possible to add tons of lights on the lots so your sims can paint even when it’s dark? (Sorry for spamming your comment section 🤓🤓🤓)
I wish I could do this. Wish I can do flags to painting of Hungary, Czech Republic, Italy and the U.S 🇭🇺 🇨🇿 🇮🇹 🇺🇸 flags paintings on my wall in the game but I play on ps4 😢
bruh you are too fast in this part 3:33 next time please slow down, its already fustrating at using it plus a very not clear video because you move too fast, its making me so mad.

me too, but ima not, seems like a hassle. what's ur origin ID, i'll check out some of ur paintings!
Dang, that's a lot of work! Totally worth it though, and thanks for the tutorial, it was very clear!
clearest tutorial ever, tysm :D
I've been trying for almost a year to get this right..... and now I know its because I need legacy edition.... THANK YOU!!!!
Oh my... I searched for the technique all the time ! THANK YOU so much, best tutorial ever ♥♥♥♥
Thank you! I was using old game version on my laptop (new version is on my PC). This method with LE is much more better! 🥰
Oxana KSims I’m so glad you say that! ♥️♥️
Omg it worked, thank you so much, this was really helpful! I hope there will be an easier way in the future!
is there any way to make them non cc without the legacy version?
