Can I Renovate EA's Sims 4 House by ONLY Swapping Objects?

[@kari_sims]

love how their essence is still there, but it looks sooo much better now, you did great! Also found weird how they made only one bathroom, like, not even a shared one for the girls?? lol anyways, thanks for making my university days a little better! ☺

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Maggie, I’m glad you enjoyed the renovation! 😊 I definitely wanted to keep the personality of their rooms intact while giving it a bit of an update. Lol yes the bathroom situation is quite odd, especially the lack of towels which is pretty noticeable. I hope your days in college are going well too!

[@lisaberger631]

I dont think someone will be angry if you adding more lights so we can see better hahah ❤

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Lol I know, just trying to stick to protocol! I'm just going to blame EA for the lack of lighting in the original build.😆

[@mcdc9086]

Yeah just use the basic one and shrink them so they’ll be almost invisible. But other than that I really enjoyed the video. ❤

[@oshinsims]

I think you did a wonderful job! I didn't know how this was going to turn out, but I love the colors and objects you used. I love this challenge 💙

[@TownieSimBuilds]

That means so much Oshin, I'm so glad you liked the renovation! Thank you so much for stopping by! 😊

[@thesimyin]

This is such a fun video idea ! Lol

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Haha thanks so much Yin! I definitely enjoyed this renovation.😊

[@EmilyBlueJaye]

The way you said early on you'd need to remember curtains in the front living room window and I was waiting the whole build for them to return. 🤣Love this take on the reno challenge!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Lol like I said, bad memory! 😂 I’m glad you enjoyed the challenge Emily! 😊

[@xfortyx]

1:33 you don't need to click pipette when you wanna copy object that you just put, you can hold shift on a keyboard when you place it, that make that you can place it multiple time (e.g. columns)

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Hi Ola! Thank you so much for the tip. Another user had pointed that out and I completely forgot about the shift function. I'll certainly remember it for next time! 😊

[@jormunganfan]

Love the "I really love the tiny living for the colourful stuff" then proceeds to use the white swatch 😂. Cool video though

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Haha yes, it's a bad habit of mine unfortunately! 😅So glad you enjoyed the challenge!

[@zoegranville7607]

I really love how you gave the rooms a lot of personality. It's something I struggle with because I just want everything black hahaha. Feeling inspired to renovate their house (again) after watching this :D

[@TownieSimBuilds]

That's wonderful Zoe, I'm so glad you enjoyed the room renovations and are inspired to take on your own! 😊

[@jereboy2005]

This was very well done. It still has that ea build vibe but overall looks much better. Feels very put together. I've seen some other simmers when they finish builds do a sims pov house tour. Like the tab and move around function. I've always found those fun cause you get to see the homes from the ground. That could be a fun suggestion to touring your finished builds!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Jere, I’m glad you like how the build turned out! 😊

[@vincentlevarrick6557]

Also here because the algorithm suggested it! I love the Willow Creek houses, but it is fun to see this one get an update. Was so pleased when you realised it wasn't the windows, but the front door that was throwing things off 😂 the final door you picked works much better. And as someone who only has base game, it was great to see you still included bg options.

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Ah thank you so much Vincent! I'm so glad you enjoyed the renovation and the choices that went into it. I certainly do love base game (the best options of all the franchise in my opinion in terms of build/buy).🙂

[@Rosebud_official]

This is such a unique idea and a great way to easily refresh a build without having to think about it too much!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Rosebud, I'm glad you enjoyed the challenge! I agree, this could be a cool (and less tedious) way of revamping a lot of the builds that EA provides in-game. 🙂

[@wolfgirlsimming]

I love summer's creative bookshelf!!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Wolf Girl! I was glad I found a makeshift solution, because I was not a big fan of the book shelves I had in stock.🙂

[@Sara-th3tk]

Such a cool and unique challenge!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Sara! 😀

[@YourNeighborhoodWitch]

This is a cool renovation! I love that you kept the vibes of the characters and modernized the build without compromising their personalities.

[@TownieSimBuilds]

That means so much Tessia! That's always a fun part of the challenge for sure. 😊

[@melina8877]

here from oshinsims new video! love the changes you made :) this turnt out really good

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much for stopping by Melina, I'm so glad you enjoyed the challenge! 😊

[@fableSimmer]

Love this renovation! Subbing for future videos and to go back through your old ones when I have the free time. I always need something to listen to and watch when playing Sims lol

[@TownieSimBuilds]

So glad you liked the renovation Eric! I hope you enjoy my older videos as well! 🙂

[@lauraholland5315]

Love the changes

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Laura! 😊

[@angieLOVESdonuts1.2]

At first i didnt think this buil would be able to look so good Id live there 100% 💜 and the pastel pink room turned out great

[@TownieSimBuilds]

That means so much Angie! To be honest, I was a little scared for this build too; it was hard to figure out the style of the modernized home while keeping the personality of the original build intact. 🙂

[@mcdc9086]

My suggestion is put the original version on the side during the review at the end so we can see a bit of before and after. You did so well tho! ❤

[@TownieSimBuilds]

That's a great idea, thank you so much for the suggestion! I'm glad you enjoyed the challenge as well. ☺️

[@rominasarmadi8278]

This was a pretty creative challenge 😃

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Romina! I always like trying new ideas for build challenges on my channel.😊

[@Univ3rsalis]

I love this idea! Their house is so dark.

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much! Lol I absolutely agree. EA was a bit stingy on the lights in this build!

[@starsims90]

first video of yours i found, and I've subscribed. think this a great idea and a good way to update an older style.

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Emma, I really appreciate it! 😊 I hope you enjoy more challenges to come!

[@tenacioussims3033]

I am trying this today! i love this idea. This video was super fun to watch. I'm looking forward to binge watching your content 😃Can you do one from each world from the packs you have? Enjoy your day ☺

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Ah that's awesome to hear Tenacious! I would love to do this again in another world, absolutely. 😊

[@CosmicSeed420]

This build looks so much better now, even though it does not have much decoration. but i feel like you captured the sims personalities much better than EA did.

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much Cosmic! That's definitely a priority when designing for specific Sims, I never want to lose their personality when redesigning. 🙂

[@AddisonHearrin]

I have never seen a sims challenge like this, i clicked on this so quick haha

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Lol thanks for stopping by Addison! I try to keep it fun and unique in The Sims 4 with my challenges, at least to the best of my ability! 😊

[@EvanBear]

Tiny bit of a hint: If you hold shift while placing an item such as a column it will immediately place the same item in your hand again, so you don't have to use the eyedropper tool every time!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thanks so much Evan! As soon as I read your comment I remembered the trick, and totally neglected to do it during the challenge. I'm taking notes for next time! 😅

[@mistymane52]

Gotta say, in the first five minutes I thought there was a secret side challenge of only using cream swatches :P a very fun build idea! And the outcome was impressive! I’m gonna try this now!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Lol I certainly love my cream tones! I'm glad you liked the end result Misty, I would love to see your take on the challenge!☺

[@uuulyanastr]

One of my favorite bg family too ^^ Very nice renovation, soo cozy and light~

[@TownieSimBuilds]

I’m so glad you enjoy the BFFs too! Thank you so much, I’m happy you liked the end result! 😊

[@ThatOneDalekLucy]

Found you because of the algorithm. Subscribed because of your energy. Awesome ideas and lovely renovation. It's giving me ideas for my own game. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Keep up the good work 👍😁

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Ah that means so much Alexis, thank you! So happy you enjoy my content! 😊

[@jenw9271]

Took “everything but the kitchen sink” literally 😂 this was so much fun to watch! Great video!!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Haha oh my goodness you're right Jen! These things tend to happen in build challenges, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 😊

[@Lux_Familiar]

Hey, that's a really cool concept, I definitely want to try this type of renovation out for myself now! Also giving you a little sub, keep up the good work!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Ah I'm so glad you liked it Lux! I would love to see your take on this. Thank you so much for the sub as well! 😊

[@Lux_Familiar]

@@TownieSimBuilds If I upload something that I built with the challenge on the Gallery, I will make sure to put #TownieSimBuilds in the description!

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Yes that sounds wonderful, definitely comment too to let me know if you do post it! The Gallery is very bad with notifying me. 😅

[@Lux_Familiar]

@@TownieSimBuilds yeee, sadly notifications are not a thing in the Gallery anymore, you'd have to manually search for the hashtag. I'll try to remember to leave a comment!

This was solid. ✌️

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@sarahbuckley2564]

I like them too, shame their house always catches fire when my sim visits, and I'm stuck 😂

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Lol oh man! It must be either their lack of cooking skills and/or the faulty appliances! 😆

[@xXxDinEnesteEnexXx]

I too keep my jacket in the kitchen

[@TownieSimBuilds]

I figured that may be the case in smaller spaces! 😅

[@nope2075]

You didn’t replace the curtains in the common area…

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Hi nope! Can’t say why I didn’t, I either decided to leave them off or forgot entirely! 😅 I noticed that when I first looked back at the challenge as well!
