A comfort save file for my cozy simmers.. Welcome to Windbrook 2.0

[@nempne]

As a former native Texan, I love love love long, single-story ranch-style brick homes. I love seeing them translated in the game. It’s weird how, like, you take something so simple, yet comforting, for granted when you enter build/buy usually.

[@nempne]

You don’t sound crazy for that being your dream home either, that’s my dream too.

[@nyquitacharles9146]

I love one story houses both in the game and not. It's too much to be running up and down the stairs for 8 sims lol but also, we have a lot of one story houses in my town and I also love the mid-century style homes too. So I like them in the game. I have never seen the houses look so real tho. Now I have a new goal😅

[@oshinsims]

Well said!💙

[@erinkay218]

We all must have cities built around the same time. I live in mid Michigan (about 2 hours north of Detroit since that is all anyone knows lol). A lot of the houses were built between the 1920s and 1970s and they are all either somewhat boxy two story houses or the ranch style. I’ve lived in 5 different houses throughout my life and this is the first I’ve ever lived in that was 2 stories. I always thought I wanted two stories so I looked for that when I bought a house for the first time. NGL. I regret that. Lol.

[@MissChalet7]

Nooo but why did this crack me up bc it's so relatable 😅

[@blackberrywinter4020]

The save file is so beautiful and their build style is to die for. It’s so effortless and effective. Just looking at the detail in the homes gives so much history and context to the families

[@kawaiidolI]

So I've been looking for a Life is Strange vibe world late 90's early 2000's vibe save file because I'm doing a really deep storyline for that time so all my sims have that nostalgic look to them and some of the y2k looks as well. This save file is perfect for the vibe I'm going for so I'm excited! I am waiting for Copperdale to be finished though because I know Windbrook will slay Copperdale so hard as well as that's the world my sims will mainly take place but omg this save file is so good and I'm excited to use it

[@melina8877]

I love their build style so much! minimal but so much character 😩 obsesseeddd!!

[@watchnea4573]

😢 the Castillo’s house literally reminds me of my great grandmas house I almost teared up

[@xlunarmiax]

the newcrest world is amazing! the single story houses and the downtown area look just like my small town here in alabama

[@LuminousMia]

The ranch houses made me so happy, I too love ranch homes. I also grew in a two story house. I prefer everything on one floor with the exception of a basement. Ranch homes look so cozy! This save file is the MOST realistic I’ve seen. 💙🌊 I love the Ramona lp!

[@JoyfullyUnaware]

I could practically *smell* the inside of some of these builds!

[@BlueSkies7]

I typically dislike snow because we get so much of it in Indiana, but this video is so beautiful and cozy I find myself actually wanting a day or two of snow.

[@vedakendrick8521]

Same, on everything you said. I'm not looking forward to the winters here, hate snow!! but this triggers the kid in me growing up in Indiana.🤗

[@jiminsbitch212]

Ugh Indiana... I remember one year when I was in high school; it was like -30 and I had like 2 weeks of snow days.

[@BlueSkies7]

@@jiminsbitch212 yep. Those snow days are still here. My school was always out on snow days.

[@Folklings]

Thank you for the overview friend! And thank you for making a family for the save, I love them so much. This gave me an opportunity to see things that needs to be fixed and/or updated. I always forget something at the end lol.

[@oshinsims]

Thank you for this masterpiece friend! Lol no, this is beautiful. I swear if you were a sim you’d have the perfectionist trait 😂💙

[@Folklings]

[@savythatsimmer]

Also, the skating rink omg 🥹😍😍😍

[@oshinsims]

Isn’t it perfect 😩

[@449new]

Life is strange core is my absolute favourite. I'm definately using this in my new storyline, it fits perfectly! Have to say your skills are immaculate, thank you for blessing us with such an amazing save file

[@cornsumer]

I was surprised nobody mentioned western PA. This is very much the surrounding areas of Pittsburgh. I can’t wait to get the update 🥺

[@kristinahplays]

I’m obsessed. What a BEAUTIFUL save file.

[@valkyrie2832]

Whenever I watch one of these save file overview videos, at first I feel a little discouraged. I feel like these are SO much better and have way more character than any of my builds, and that my progress on my save is basically nothing. And that even when it is done, it will be terrible compared to this and other saves. But after that initial wave of frustration, I feel SO much inspiration to continue to improve my builds, and my save as a result. And I get very excited to incorporate the inspiration for these builds into later worlds in my save. I guess what I’m trying to say is, thank you for making these videos! (And thank you to the save creators.) After the beginning frustration, I always end up finishing one of these videos very encouraged and inspired. And I just appreciate all of your videos in general, they’re great!🤍

[@oshinsims]

I totally understand! But I’m so proud on you for not giving up! It’s great to have a little inspiration and look at it that’s at instead ☺️ Building a save file is a daunting task, what you’re doing is hard work! With that said - you’re doing great! 💙

[@valkyrie2832]

@@oshinsims Thank you, I appreciate it a lot💙

[@LooseANDplay]

Yey, safe file that's not filled with clutter! I am currently starting my save file (accidently lost last one) and it's so hard to find good builds where houses are airy and not too cluttered.

[@bellamarie2210]

7:09 ranch style homes are my favorite too! 😍 I love your voice it is so soothinggg!!

[@melodye14]

Love, love, love the realism here especially with the one story starter homes. I'm not necessarily a sucker for ranch style but I love that the ones you showed remind me of ones I've lived in or recognize from childhood.

[@cowboycid]

I haven't had a chance to hop into the save myself as I don't have a lot of the packs but thanks for the lovely overview. Windbrook has such a unique build style and even in it's simplicity it makes the all the worlds feel so alive! This was so much fun to work on.

[@infinitedezi]

i was so waiting on you to overview this world since it came out!

[@kawaiidolI]

Also wanted to say the first ranch style home you showed, looks a lot like my childhood home I grew up in from the outside lol so I felt the nostalgia with that one! A lot of ranch style homes back then on the main floor there is only one bathroom or a jack and jill bathroom so the attention to detail is so cool!! My house had a basement but the outside just reminded me of my childhood home so much!! I'm definetley going to use that home when I play in the save

[@LeonorIsabel]

yay i was waiting so much for this overview i loved the new updates!

[@KingD-light]

I'm loving this. So comfy and cozy. I love the color tones 😍

[@zebras04]

i wish i could update my save because i started my save on 1.0.. now all my sims are there. my heart is BROKEN

[@TrulyHorrifics]

Really late, but I usually just save my households and convert them over.. sure they lose their relationship statuses but I use UI cheats to quickly fix that to be maxed or negative or whatever pretty quick.

[@zebras04]

@ im a really annoying player because i love my saves to be perfect, like families and houses and personalities. it takes up SO much time. likely when the creator of windbrook makes their next save file ill probably just start all over. its time for a new mods folder anyways. thanks for the response though, ill start saving my households so i dont lose them!!

[@LunaticWays]

This is my first ever time landing on one of your videos. ☺️ I love your soothing voice, I love the way you present all the builds, and I loooove the building style and realism here! So so so good! Inspires me to open my Sims riiiight now and start building 🤩

Yes, you need simrealist bank mod IF you want to utilize it that way. It’s actually set up with everything needed to play with that mod. If you don’t want it - it’s okay , you can just use your imagination it’s just there for realism ;)

Is it still for sure based off of Michigan? I thought I read one of the creator's post saying they were making it California based for 2.0 so Im not sure if I missed an update to that or something. That said, it does feel very Michigan/Midwest to me (and I love it) :)
