Hey Megg, great tutorial! A few quick notes: Objects have "bones" called rigs, but some don't. If they don't, they can't be rotated on the other 2 axes. Nothing we can do other than wish EA hadn't made them that way. Alt+shift click will clone any objects you have selected. Sometimes people, including me, get into a rut of using gravity pull (alt click) way too much, a tip I recommend is to regular click as close as you can to where you want it, then do the gravity pull for the last few adjustments. Saves your mouse button 😉 Also just in case you haven't figured it out yet, you can alt+click other objects to add them to the group, and the rotate around center option allows you to rotate the group as if they were one object.
Thanks so much for your reply! And for your explanation about the live edit objects, makes a lot of sense! Ah yep I totally forgot to mention cloning and editing a group of objects, might need to make a part 2 😊 Love your work!
this is a great tutorial! i previously deleted the tool mod, because i was so lost on how to use it. but your tutorial has taught me how to easily use it! i've been adding great detail to my builds and i'm so happy! thank you
megg!! thank you soo much for such an easy to understand and in-depth tutorial! i've been super intimidated to use this mod because theres so many options and i get very overwhelmed but I was able to take your tutorial and take my own notes into a way that makes even more sense in my brain and i have not yet found a tutorial that explains each function as well and clear as you did! keep it up girlie 🥰
She’s blowing my mind XDXD 🔥🤩 I’ve been using it for awhile with clutter and rugs resizing but I’ve seen so many people move it slowly and fast and I could never figure out how to do it!
I just started using this mod a couple of days ago and I'm loving it! But it only works for me when the game is in live mode. Doing "shift + T" does nothing 🤷🏼♀️
i was struggling so much with figuring out this mod and i was about the remove it from my mods folder when your video showed up on my feed. now i can't wait to get in game and use it and play around! your video helped me understand this mod so easily! thank you!!
Amazing tutorial! Could I just ask, is your game slower with the T.O.O.L mod installed? I really want to download it and Better Build Buy but I don’t want my game to get any slower😅
I don't get it cuz every single time I try to use tool, I'll select my object, click move or rotate or whatever, put in the number, hot okay, then the object is gone. Happens every single time, to every single object. And it does it whether I move something .1 or 100...I don't know how to fix this...
Hey Megan everything works but the rotate I am trying to rotate rocks to fit somewhere and I can't get this one thing to work. Ahhhhh what am I doing wrong I have watched video after video please help😢
Would this completely replace the need for the OSMP red shelf? I can’t ever get that to work for me. Trying to think if there’s something that it might do that TOOL wouldn’t.
I'm having a issue with it working in build mode it works on everything else besides build mode, and I do have the better build mode mod in my game so I'm confused why it doesn't pop up on my screen when I press Shift + T
I've heard from Mac users before that they had this issue but I'm not sure if it's been fixed sorry! Make sure both BBB and TOOL are up to date as well x
HEYYYY I know this video is kind of old-ish, but I just recently found about the mod and I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but I put the mod how it was instructed to in my mods folder and then I open the game, then it does the usual loading screen and when it's supposed to show the main menu screen, it's just a white screen with the music in the background and I cannot close the game- it only fixes after I remove the mod. Any recommendations ??

This is by far the easiest tutorial I’ve seen on the TOOL mod 🙏🏾🙏🏾 thank you!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
Leaning pictures against the wall is a great idea and they look really nice!

Such great tutorial. I learned so much. All other videos were too confusing. Thank you

Cheers, just got the mod and wanted just a little something to get started. This was perfect.
Wow what an amazing mod and what an amazing tutorial! Thank you soo much for this!

The replacing windows in apartments was completely new to me and I’ve been using the mod for ages….
Do you have any advice, my tool mod is not showing up. Shift + T isnt pulling it up
Tis video was so much better than TM's own tutorial of T.O.O.L. It was so helpful and now I don't feel so scared to use T.O.O.L. Thanks alot!

Amazing tutorial! Could I just ask, is your game slower with the T.O.O.L mod installed? I really want to download it and Better Build Buy but I don’t want my game to get any slower😅
personally I haven't noticed my game being slow with TOOL Mod, I think my game gets slowed down by CC hahah
Great tutorial thank you.
when i press shift + t it doesnt shoe the menu but the game shoes the mod was succesfully added, help!!!
when i download it and opened ts4 the screen was fully white, when i deleted the mod everything was okay. can someone tell me what happened?
I don't get it cuz every single time I try to use tool, I'll select my object, click move or rotate or whatever, put in the number, hot okay, then the object is gone.

Hey Megan everything works but the rotate I am trying to rotate rocks to fit somewhere and I can't get this one thing to work. Ahhhhh what am I doing wrong I have watched video after video please help😢
it does't work i pressed shift+ t t + shift nothing works
same
u have to download the better buy mod by the same creator then shift t will work
@@veravera6298 really? 👀
Okay , thank youu!🙏✨
@@veravera6298 oh my god! i just downloaded that mod, and opened the game, and now works. Thank you so much.
Would this completely replace the need for the OSMP red shelf? I can’t ever get that to work for me. Trying to think
if there’s something that it might do that TOOL wouldn’t.
You could definitely get away with only TOOL. My other clutter tutorial covers the red shelf mod!
this TOOL wont appear on my sims 4, i followed your tutorial, but it wont appear
I'm having a issue with it working in build mode it works on everything else besides build mode, and I do have the better build mode mod in my game so I'm confused why it doesn't pop up on my screen when I press Shift + T
I've heard from Mac users before that they had this issue but I'm not sure if it's been fixed sorry! Make sure both BBB and TOOL are up to date as well x
So my dumb question will be… by using tool mode I am able to create a building that has let’s say 5 stories instead of the maxmum 4?
Not a dumb question! But no, you can't build beyond 4 stories with TOOL mod.
Never felt this way for anyone, just got butterflies in my stomach seeing u....
thank you 🥹 i was having so much trouble!
I can use this on that bat that lean out to far
HEYYYY I know this video is kind of old-ish, but I just recently found about the mod and I haven't seen anyone else mention this, but I put the mod how it was instructed to in my mods folder and then I open the game, then it does the usual loading screen and when it's supposed to show the main menu screen, it's just a white screen with the music in the background and I cannot close the game- it only fixes after I remove the mod. Any recommendations ??
When did you download the mod? It was recently updated with the new expansion pack so make sure you have the latest version!
what is tool mod that's my biggest question
when i try to upload builds that use the tool mod it says that cc was used on the build when it wasnt. do you know how to fix that?
I think there's a "modded" box you can untick when you upload to the gallery?
Can you tilt walls??
Nope!
But then, those things Are Functional?
is this mod base game?
It's a separate mod you need to download and install but it works with only base game
Man her explaining very basic maths cause she thinks people won’t get it otherwise is tragic
Not really, Kids Play the Sims, most likely alot of kids watched this, her explaining it simply is genuinely just logical. What's really tragic is your grammar.

That's the whole reason I got the TOOL mod.
