sorry for the sniffles, i literally had them ONLY during this recording session. 😭

[@holyguacamole3893]

Also don’t forget to backup your save file and make a list of the mods you used because the new pack is coming out next week and it has a lot of base game updates as well which I’m pretty certain is going to break almost everything 😭

[@Piixxa]

i'm very scared LOL, I back up every week. I simply cannot have this save disappear. ty for the heads up :_)

Briarwood is def one of my favorite inspo’s for my save file along with others. I have my current save file ‘Mirage County’, which is a overpopulated, grody area with some very ‘interesting’ people. The whole premise of the save is that Mirage is painted as this perfect place to make a name for yourself, but in reality it isnt (Much similar to the meaning behind the work Mirage). I use a few worlds like Oasis Springs (My absolute favorite), Del sol Valley (Close second), San myshuno, Evergreen , and Magnolia Promanade to build in. Mirage county is a very dramatic and eventful save so far from what i’ve been playing with. Every sim has a story that connects to others in one way shape or form, for example: Toni, a woman who lives in the apartments in del sol valley area, had bought out an old cafe her grandma used to run, despite the proper was given to her mother Ruby, a resident all the way in Oasis Springs who had abandoned the cafe in the first place. Now she has to juggle keeping the cafe business open by trying to appeal to the demographic of young sims in Del sol, and her personal life. Andre, who lives in the same building as Toni, had graduated from college and was recently laid off from his position as staff in a diner bc the company had gone bankrupt. He didn’t mind this too much since he to pursue a career in interior design, but every company he applies for doesn’t contact him back. This is when Toni asks for help in refurbishing the cafe. Now they both benefit from this partnership by helping Toni redesign this cafe and inherit her Grandma’s business, and Andre to have a temporary job and gain some work experience for his future career. Theres a lot more story elements and connections that I left out to add to the drama! but its one of my favorites to play with. Mirage rlly gives me the opportunity to get creative with writing sims stories and such lol

[@Piixxa]

I’ll glad my little save has inspired you 😊. I love the idea of restoring an older building through gameplay. How creative! Thank you so much for sharing a part of your save with me. I need to practice building in the desert worlds, but I’m not there yet. Toni and Andre sound so interesting.

[@mills9488]

this sounds so much fun tbh

If you wanna use TOOL in live mode to decorate, place the objects, go into live mode and shift click the object, u should get a TOOL option, under that press toggle active object and then click/alt click wherever you want around the world. Also if u have decor ur tryna cover up like the old willow creek buildings, zooming into the objects in live mode they’ll disappear and u can click the floor underneath to Center them/fully cover. This is what works for me! You inspired me to do something similar to my willow creek (suburbia is boring) and I love your videos! ❤

[@Simventure77]

If you want mountains there's CC backdrops you can download by floralsims. Im currently making a mountain town Savefile. I will probably have a video up on my channel tomorrow.

[@wendywilliam0303]

I cant wait to play in your save file! you are such an amazing and creative builderrrr

[@Piixxa]

Hopefully I can get a 1.0 out soon 🙂‍↕️ and thank you!

[@wolfxdreamer6860]

Saw you'd uploaded just before I went to bed, so first thing I did when I woke up this morning? Clicked on this video! I think I dreamt about living in Briarwood 😂

[@Piixxa]

The city welcomes you with open arms. 🌆😭 Thank you for watching!

[@suicidalplayboy]

You're so talented! I've just come across your channel and saw you started a month ago, it's only a matter of time before your channel absolutely blows up once more simmers discover you, and it will be so well deserved!

[@Piixxa]

@@suicidalplayboy one of the kindest comments I’ve gotten. 🙂‍↕️ Thank you so much.

[@Simventure77]

Hey if you want a empty map of willow creek and newcreast A-winged-Llama made some you can downloaded. Then you wont have to use blow torch

[@jupiter_the_shark]

Yesssss!! Long videos are the BEST!!!!!!🎉❤

I’m glad you’re excited!😭 Thank you for support.

[@jupiter_the_shark]

@@Piixxa its nothing your videos make me relax when I have anxiety, so thank you for making them ❤️❤️❤️

[@joemama.216]

your save file has inspired me so much!!! i’ve wanted to start one for years now and your channel and content have given me that motivation to do so 🫶

[@Piixxa]

@@joemama.216 ah yay!! I’m glad you’ve started. Feel free to share your progress with me if you’d like 😊

it’s so pretty, i’d love to see what gameplay looks like!!❤❤

[@Piixxa]

I have a mini series coming out for lovestruck 😊

[@sokkyheh]

omg the lighting in the game

[@Piixxa]

It was really doing wonders for me

[@holyguacamole3893]

I love this so much, I’ve started a save file, it’s 90s/early 2000s based and it’s been so fun. I genuinely have enjoyed building more than actually playing the game so far (the glitches have become overwhelming) I’m new to your channel so excuse me if you’ve already answered this but do you plan on sharing your save file? It looks wonderful 🫶🏾

[@Piixxa]

my save is psudeo 2000's lol, I cant commit fully. I agree, the game has been causing me strife but I power through. 😆I do plan on sharing it although I'm not sure when. Thank you though! I'm very happy that you are enjoying.

[@btsaespanctitzyatzbillliem425]

This video was made for me, thank youu and i pray you get money and your pc runs even better

[@Piixxa]

Thank you for the prayers 😭

[@ofmuses]

[@introvert_trait]

i LOVE watching videos like these sm... 10/10 (btw you could rename willow creek if you wanted using sims 4 studio!)

[@introvert_trait]

OHH also i forgot to mention, theres a mod called "unlocked apartments" and you can bring the san myshuno apartments to other worlds!! you should check it out

[@Piixxa]

@@introvert_trait I just found this mod and I am going crazy 😭 Also thank you for reminding me to rename the world I’ve been meaning too get that done

So, we're best friends. Effective today. :) I love how you do all of this. You're soooo talented and I've played this game since I was a wee-kiddo, haha!

@@larajade7621 hi new best friend 😊 Thank you for your kind words! They mean so much to me

[@tshiamoshodi]

I've been watching quite a few videos on save files and their lores that I'm actually considering starting a save in Oasis Springs based on like the run down dingy areas of Anerican desert living. So basically very lana del rey's 'ride' aesthetic if that makes sense. I also want to incorporate las vegas with the nightlife into that save. My game is quite glitchy so building is the only thing I'm enjoying at the moment😅

[@Piixxa]

That is such a good idea 😔 Now I want to make Vegas 😭 I love me some Lana del ray.

[@cristellersims]

I loved this save

[@Piixxa]

Eventually, I will 😊 and don’t worry it’s a simple question to answer

[@Vendetta_s]

Suggestion: perhaps with tool made you should place those functional food venders out? :) if you haven’t thought about it yet Another one 29:04 at this time stamp you could add benches ?

[@Vendetta_s]

Also if you need mod suggestions for kids parks I can help! And there’s a cars replacement mod and billboard overrides too

[@Piixxa]

@@Vendetta_sThank you for the ideas! Please send your ideas over I’d love to incorporate any mods/advice my viewers have. 😊

[@Vendetta_s]

@@Piixxa Cepzid creations they got so much cool things But for parks “Slide into your mods” by Ravasheen and a recolour “Pietro Toys Inc” by littledica (but just look up sims 4 littledica slide). “Spring rider playground” By Cepxid A suggestion from island living with the sand terrain you can make your own sandbox for kids and toddlers, but there’s also sandboxes made by many different creators. :D

[@Cherisii]

Your video was super inspiring and I enjoyed the long format. Just a quick question is there a certain reason you place the background buildings while in build mode rather than live. I would think that would be easier to place items but I was wondering if I’m missing something.

[@Piixxa]

hi! placing with tool is harder for me in live mode. In build I can just alt click, in live mode the menu (on the top left corner) doesn’t come up when I shift+t in live mode. I’m prettyyy sure this is the case anyway. Hopefully this makes sense! Thank you for watching I’m glad you enjoyed 😊

[@Cherisii]

@@Piixxa ohh ok. If it helps at all if you shift click you can toggle objects and while something is toggled you can just click freely from item to item. And if you shift click the floor in general you get the options menu and settings menu. You placing buildings on the horizon from the lot looks a little difficult so just wanted to let you know in case you didn’t already.

[@ALT1308_]

I’m currently working on my save file…do you mind sharing where you get your deco building and items

[@Piixxa]

Hi i have a cc blog: www.tumblr.com/blog/piixxafinds I have a category called 'must haves' which includes some of my fav cc pieces. I only use deco buildings from debug, no cc buildings.

[@bridramirez6760]

Blowtorch doesn’t remove trees. If anyone knows how to delete ALL debug items please let me know

[@Simventure77]

Where did you get the lines for your power poles? I have the poles but havent seen the lines to connect them

[@thatlilbeach5430]

I’m pretty sure it’s in the debug idk if it’s from base game tho

[@Piixxa]

Thank you for replying, they are debug, not base game!
