Sims 4 Tutorial - Angled Window Facade [Base Game] | Kate Emerald

[@lycraduckzrule]

Hi Kate. I quickly tried this myself and found that you can actually close off the open columns you made to enable this, after you have finished with it all, to create a more seamless wall and skip the fencing part for the exterior trim. To do so, you need to place a pre-shaped room [one of the 4 options between the basement tool and the flat floor pieces] next to the open gap, so that one of the new room's walls is covering it; this should close off the column without deleting the roofing. Then you can just delete 1 by 1 the other walls of this room, and then finally the floor to get rid of it all [and it needs to be done in that order with deleting the floor last or it will delete the glass roof]. Hopefully I explained this well and it works for you and everyone else; and thank you for always producing quality tutorials for these building tricks!

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you so much for your very helpful comment, that's amazing! :)

[@keeliahowell7780]

You are a sooooo smart.... never thought of that

[@sarahfisher6801]

Sadly this didn't work for me. As soon as I deleted the floor (last thing I did) the roof piece disappeared. :( I did however, find that if you are building this without money cheats it is cheaper to place the roof piece in the center columns and just expand the eaves all the way on one side and half-way (3 squares) on the inside so that the two rooves make up the entire span. Instead of using 3 rooves per floor for a total of 6 roof pieces, it's only 2 per floor or 4 roof pieces. Awesome idea. Thank you for sharing.

[@lemonadelemon1960]

Sims 4 fans: EA needs to add glass walls. EA: Do you know how hard that is? Kate Emerald: Hold my half gabled roof.

[@wasylbasyl]

You : Me : _proud of his squares in Sims_

[@KateEmerald]

Aww, I am sure your builds are amazing! :)

[@_madeinrowan_]

How did you come up with this idea, it's amazing!

[@KateEmerald]

Aww, thank you! :) Hope it's helpful! :) I played around with roofs yesterday for a looong time! :D

[@Kallah_DaughterOfYAHUAH]

because she’s KATE! 💪🏾

[@_madeinrowan_]

@@KateEmerald I've been wanting to build new things and thanks to your video and know what to do now 😊🧡

[@nikkikim6175]

For those of you who play on the ps4 to do this you would hold square and x at the same time to only adjust one side of the roof.

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you, I am sure this will be helpful for a lot of people!

[@KateEmerald]

The option to expand eaves longer than 2 tiles was added in a patch to PC a while ago. This patch comes to console on Tuesday and it will work just the same on console on Tuesday! :)

[@siancordier3710]

It doesn’t work :(

[@Indy.]

Thanks a bunch, I was just about to google how to do that on PS4

[@Indy.]

@@MrsTLadd Yes, but it took me a few tries. It just doesn't want to stay one-sided when I click the two buttons again to let go.

[@TheVonKarma]

You are so creative. As always, thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us. 😁

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you sooo much! :)

[@scottlien2467]

This is not only an incredibly innovative technique, you explain it really well. You are a natural teacher. Thank you. Edit to say, this is going to change my A-Frames so much!

[@sarafailla8062]

I've been leaving comments on most of your videos lately which is so rare of me but I'm just amazed every time???? You literally make the most of every single thing in the game. Instead of complaining about what we don't have, you create it yourself and that's SO amazing!! EA should totally hire you to help them come up with some ideas cause you just make building in the sims so much fun!!

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you sooo much! :)

[@mariblue72]

I've literally saved all your tutorials to a playlist so I can reference them from my phone to try and follow while I attempt to build something better than connected rectangles. You're so insanely creative, I can't wait to give this a whirl!!

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you soo much! :) That's so cool! :D

[@avismoon]

You're simply the most creative Sims creator that I have ever watched!

I know they're made of glass roofs but damnnn they look good!!!

[@parrotdoesasploot2381]

You are literally the best and smartest Sim KZbinr. Your videos are so helpful. I am speechless. Thank you so so much for this, your videos bring me joy

[@UranusProductions1]

This game has so many possibilities that I could never even think of, it's crazy! Never stop coming up with these!

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you! :)

[@marieduran6286]

Thank you, you just gave me an idea on how to roof a museum I have been working on.

[@KateEmerald]

Yayy, have fun building! :)

[@rhiannafaye9578]

You’re an absolute wizard when it comes to building 😂😍

[@Kallah_DaughterOfYAHUAH]

iidk HOW! but kate seems to ALWAYS astonish and WOW me. and i’m not usually very easily impressed. 🙌🏾💪🏾👏🏾

[@KateEmerald]

Thank you sooo much lovely, you are so sweet!

[@mygoblin1]

So complicated but your instructions are easy to follow. I didn't know about the shift clicking for roof eaves. That's very useful.

[@tsimkins1960]

How is it that I just discovered you TODAY? I've been binge watching your videos today. You are an amazing builder and I have already learned so much. I subscribed about 2 minutes into the first video of yours I watched. You are amazing and so clear with the details. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kate is the Queen of base game builds

[@lorisolomon2833]

I've been playing with this, and have found that doing one angle-out roof on a two story house along one sea-facing (non)wall is jaw-droppingly beautiful. I only use one roof, on the lower level, hidden in one column. I make the roof 1x1, and stretch one eave to one side and up all the way to the top of the second floor. I've also been using the same 1x1 half gable roof for the driveway to my garage on foundation, as per your other video. I have found that you can pull the eave off the lot and into the ground, which makes it look super realistic as a ramp and saves space. Thank you for all of your excellent tutorials!

[@ashleypade]

i'll say it again.....sims scientist! you keep on creating and finding new things and amazing us all...thank you!

[@KateEmerald]

Aww, thank you! :)

[@woweyn]

These would look gooood in lofts or split-level houses!

[@jasmineh8807]

Just looking at the thumbnail I thought it is CC, but then I read the title and I'm so happy it's not CC 😊 Their is nothing wrong with CC and mods, its just when you have a weak computer/laptop you can't have them 😔

[@sol_pregnantguy]

That has nothing to do with having CC or not.

[@jasmineh8807]

@@sol_pregnantguy what do you mean?

[@sol_pregnantguy]

@@jasmineh8807 You can still have CC in weak machines.

[@jasmineh8807]

@@sol_pregnantguy yes, but it lags and crashes like crazy. My computer died because of how old it is and loads of mods/CCs I had. But of course this isn't the games fault. It was a really old computer.

[@tonyarenee531]

@@sol_pregnantguy It's Something Called "Specs" and it matters ... this could be a very old pc and the impact of a lot of files ... "Memory" ETC causes your game to lag even if the specs meet requirements for sims 4 plus consider the processor would be very slow .. I believe you just needed to be heard ........... LOL

[@nannettemueller5672]

You do a really great job teaching this technic. It was very helpful especially doing it with the windows going the opposite direction and continuing to narrate not only what you are doing but why. Thanks!
