Sorry for the lack of video lately and how my voice sounds. I've been feeling really run down

[@deez7914]

im so sorry about that:(( but thank u for a idea 💗💗

[@h.8281]

Feeling better? I hope you are.

[@hattyquinn7814]

@patriciaclark you need to use: Control shift c and then type “bb.moveobjects on”

[@AusbyCartman]

Dang

[@kekab.8161]

All your design ideas have made it fun for me to sim again. Thank you!💕

[@toastbloke]

Scooting is such a great word! I'm so going to use it more!

[@storm.design]

I think I say it every day to the dog, asking her to scoot over in the bed because she's hogging the bed.

[@abbycrossing13]

This is so common for those of us in the south in America I had no idea some people don’t say it! Lol

[@toastbloke]

@@abbycrossing13 We use it here in the U.K. I just haven’t said it myself in a while and it made me feel disappointed in myself. We must keep the scooting dream alive!!

[@toastbloke]

@@storm.design Yeah, onto my side!!!! 😂

[@sourgreendolly7685]

Now I'm just binge watching these. I'm awful with build mode, your tips are so helpful!

[@wronggeometry]

Really appreciate you showing the console controls on screen!

[@BlanketsAndLions]

Thank you somebody finally put how to raise objects on console.💖

[@SleepyBoi216am]

I wanna spread this info to all my console players (I'm on xbox) Without any cheats, you can hold both triggers and press left or right on your d-pad, left to size down and right to size up. You can also hold LB + RB while an object is selected, and use the right stick to rotate the object freely (best used with the move objects cheat though, as the hitbox rotates with the item) With cheats (bb.moveobjects) you can hold both triggers and press up on the d-pad to raise up, or down to lower the object.

[@DreaFulton]

Omg thank u I play on console I was so confused

[@Kitchensink789]

How do I move the bed onto the edge of the build like she did? I’m also on Xbox btw

[@kylerohan3841]

You can also plug a keyboard and mouse into the back of your Xbox using the usb ports or the front usb ports on ps4

[@SkYlAr2katz]

This makes me even more excited for my new pc to come in!! I’ve played the sims 4 on console since I was 7 (I just turned 13) and for my birthday my uncle built me a pc (its coming in the mail now) and I can finally play the sims 4 with mods!!

[@storm.design]

That’s awesome! It’s easier to build on a PC too! ☺️

[@hajimesenpai7996]

I was wondering how to do this for so long. But no other sim designer was transparent AT ALL! I had no idea that you were supposed to put a basement thingy there in order for that work!! 😲😲😲😲

[@dasaf.2382]

Wait this would go crazy for micro home builds! I’ve got to try thisss

[@BirdieBaby]

This is going into my next build!!

[@anacoelho8467]

this wallpaper is so cute 🥺🥺

[@KnightedLyfe]

I wish I could buy this premade cause wooooof your work is incredible!

[@heleneelis390]

You explain it very well - I really could already learn a lot!

[@willow_rayne6678]

I saw this similar build on another channel as well. Same thing with the platforms, etc. It's a good idea. Love the color swatches, too.

[@HarrysDogmalaysia]

Watching all this cool trick to only forget it the day after, still fun to watch

[@PennyxOfxIthaca]

You’re so amazing ❤

[@gachatubergirl181]

That design is similar to how I wanted one of my character's rooms to look (based on a drawing) so the fact that you made this video really helps- ty ^^ -Subscriber from the future

[@alexharper213]

Love this design so cute!!

[@kitty_sweetums]

Thank you so much for including the console controls 😭

[@Amy_vannessa]

Sims 4 is the best and you have do good ideas

[@Aimeeeeef]

Perfect for tiny living!

[@B00kqueen17]

Hey a building app called Modern community used this audio in one of their ads

[@lavender9573]

Love the idea ! It's so cute !

[@Perspectyva_24]

That's cool design. Well done

[@cut3gloom]

not sure if you're aware but a mobile game called Modern Community is using the audio from this vid in an advertisement for their game! thought it was kind of weird

[@storm.design]

I’ve had a few people tell me this and I’ve tried to find the videos but I can’t find them, I wonder if they have blocked me so I can’t see them. They stole a few of my videos, which is illegal and then it’s also false advertising because it’s not their game 🫠

[@cut3gloom]

@@storm.design aw im sorry, so annoying! im glad i reported it. you even directly talk about sims in this video, these mobile game companies are getting so lazy 😭😭😭

[@storm.design]

Thank you so much for reporting it! It’s such a big help, I’ve warned some other creators just in case they’re content gets stolen too

[@berezyn]

This sometimes doesn’t work. I tested this many times and half the time you’re left wondering what’s blocking the damn bed.. the basement gets in the way.. you’re gonna have to raise the shelf from inside the half walls. Yay, I got my fully functional loft complex!

[@storm.design]

The shelves block the way if you do them on the same level on the half walls. But I have a newer tutorial on how to do it and it’s a little easier, no basement trick needed

[@zubinelgenuvifuentes7915]

Im in love with this one!!! 😍😍

[@Synfulz.]

This is so much simpler to what I tried to do 🙃😂..

[@Jersey_239]

That’s so cute I’m going to try this!

[@aldinkahric9249]

I did it and its so good I love it thank you

[@sabwinacarpenter]

unrelated but if you want a laundry room but you dont have laundry stuff pack, if you have the university pack, stack mini fridges on top of each other for a washer and dryer! im sure this works with sizing down regular fridges as well

[@storm.design]

Great idea!

[@Hannahs-lifestyle]

The style is just giving

[@Bo-ft4gw]

OMG TYYYY I can’t believe I couldn’t figure it out 😭

[@zippora3388]

Thank you! I been trying to figure this out for a long time!

I’ve wanted to do this but didn’t know how!! I’m gonna try this thanks so much ❤

[@miagrexton5588]

I played Jenga today too!!!😂❤

[@Al0neStillAlive]

Honestly cool but a bunk bed with a desk under it uses less room and is way easier.

[@gemini_ali8774]

COMMENTING TO COME BACK

[@sinilepi]

I love this! only problem the whole house needs to be on a tall wall hight then 😭

[@biancafriesen1285]

God bless you all 🥰

[@gloriadiguida8454]

Hi! I absolutely loved the design and tried to recreate it myself, but once I was done building I playtested it and my sim just won't use the stairs, she'll just teleport up and down and go through the wall🥲 I'm relatively new to the Sims so I don't know what it could be *edit: she only goes through walls when I place the archway, if I delete it she goes up the stairs

[@jdmonkey123]

You can also build two rooms on top of each other and make the top floor half walls

[@storm.design]

You can but I do this so I can make tiny homes with less tiles

[@ItsAdaria]

@@storm.design but doesnt the basement also add that same amount of space?

[@storm.design]

You remove the basement afterwards so it doesn’t take up any tiles

[@wendimiller8915]

I have done this so many times with the bed hanging off the platform, right next to the platform, all different ways. It works once and then my sim can’t access the platform anymore. Ugh

[@storm.design]

Oh that's so strange. The only thing I can think is if you place an item under the centre of the bed, Sims can no longer get in the bed (I hope that makes sense)

[@wendimiller8915]

@@storm.design oh! Maybe that's what happened. I'll try again. Thank you!

Hi! Idk if youll see this but curious if you know a mobile game is using this audio for an ad

[@livvylivvy23]

i can’t figure out how to make the half walls 😩. when i click the walk i build it has a “half wall” option, but it’s wayyy too short compared to the 1x3 platform i made

[@riawilson6180]

you can select them where the icon to build a wall/basement/...is :) hope u find it

[@gabrieldartemius9940]

May I know why you have to make a basement and raise some shelves for this to work?

[@storm.design]

I don’t like the look of the floating bed so I use shelves to make it look like a floor, you have to put them in the basement because if you put them directly under the bed, the bed is no longer functional

[@duolyly]

Guys how to change the platform trim color? 😢 btw thank you so much, im always looking for a way to make a platform like that ❤

[@storm.design]

If you go to where the walls section is and under it is half walls, look at the bottom option and there’s platform trims

[@early2exit]

What was the point of the basement and raising shelves? I just dont see how that did anything for the build...

[@storm.design]

To make a faux floor, I don’t like the end just floating but you don’t have to do it. I just like my builds to look finished

[@xykarijehywat0814]

​@@storm.designooooooooh, for the bed 😮😅 Wondering the same thing but I get it now lol

[@runny8751]

Oh wow!!!

[@Koanana_008]

Its all amazing till you accidentally see her basement🙂

whered you get that wardrobe from?? love it!

It’s from high school years

[@Sillyfrog_Yippee]

I can’t do the basement help 😣

[@rachelsilverland6179]

Hey I can't get the room under the bed to work :/ my Sims can't access it, do you have any idea how to fix it?

[@dennis8535]

Why wont it allow me to create a basement?? "Cannot connect blocks of different levels" comes up

[@storm.design]

You have to start the basement under a section that doesn’t have a platform

[@greeneggsncam13]

how do you put wall coverings on platforms :000

[@storm.design]

If you’re in the section where walls are underneath you have half walls (you can paint them but if you mean actually colouring the platform at the bottom of that so under half walls and half wall trims there’s platform paints to paint your platforms

[@jasonkl1279]

Cool 🎉😮

[@raynight959]

Are you able to try make on that's console friendly we're able to turn on cheats and get everything in the cheats and we're able to size things up and down most people don't know that I don't know if we can raise things up or not so can you make one without that usable or not even possible

[@taffy711]

on console i type either bb.moveobjects on and then grab the item and move it up with the raise/lower floor buttons quickly or i enter a random few letters, enter, and move it up with the raise/lower floor buttons. it takes a bit to get proper function back after that so just mash buttons until you can raise or lower the floor again

[@taffy711]

both options require bb.moveobjects to be on

[@nuggies2959]

Do you have a sim username or ID? Cuz I love this 😮

[@ladyclaue]

Do you have premade room saves? I could never do it correctly by myself 😂

[@NaTiffayParker17]

Hi, thank you so much for this but a question; do we have yo use tall walls for it to work?? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@hola1305]

Is the wallpaper in base game?? It’s so cute

[@storm.design]

Sadly not it’s from the pastel pop kit

[@yoosiemei6438]

Wait wait wait. Where’s the desk from?? 🥺❤️

[@storm.design]

The desk is base game but I added 2 sized down side tabled from dream home decorator to make the draws on the side

[@Plzgoawayyyyyyyy]

Mine won’t playfomr

[@Qrott]

Ssorry if this seems obvious but what was the immaculate shelf and basement needed for?

[@storm.design]

To fake a floor because the bed would be floating 🙂

[@tetv3622]

Wowww

[@kpopforlife1]

What's the reason behind creating a basement and moving surfaces/objects higher up? Is it for aesthetics or does it make the bed accessible? I've never really understood why :/

[@storm.design]

It makes the bed accessible if I just put the shelves directly under the bed the bed wouldn’t work. I’m using shelves to create a faux floor so the bed doesn’t look like it’s floating. I hope that helps!

[@kpopforlife1]

@@storm.design Thank you very much for the explanation! I'll definitely try this out next time I'm building a home 😁

[@lenciaa-e8t]

Pls like becose I want back it

[@emiliebryant5348]

Can’t get the bed to work and my sim won’t interact with any objects in the room underneath. Just wasted hours on this build just for it to be unusable

[@niel5531]

"stair can't intersect with rooves" it is a one floor cabin, removing roof fixes problem but then there is no roof. Since it is a cabin making it 2 story would ruin it

[@storm.design]

If you go up to where you can see the missing roof, click on that area till a yellow border pops up and then click it and you can add a ceiling

[@storm.design]

Platforms sometime remove ceilings it’s a nightmare

[@asifloserface]

I don't understand the shelf. Could someone please explain why it's in the basement? I don't see it in the little alcove. What is it's function?

[@storm.design]

It's just to act as a fake floor, or it looks like the bed is floating. It's not 100% necessary, but I personally like to add it. It's in the basement because if you put it under the bed on the same floor the bed isn't functional anymore

[@riri740]

oh, this is the video modern community game uses on their ads

[@storm.design]

@@riri740 someone else has mentioned this as well, I tried to look them up but can’t find them anywhere, they’ve stolen a few of my videos according to some people 😭

[@BeeRae]

How do you raise a specific floor platform? Every time I try to raise just one room it’ll raise all of them:(. Me and my bf gotten into the sims pretty recently so we barely know anything and we’re trying to learn. It just makes it super hard to build when you have no clue what does what or what it’ll effect

[@storm.design]

So you’re not using the platform tool you’re using the foundation tool by the sounds of it. The foundation tool is that big arrow you pull up and down. The platform tool appears when you click on the room and a white box pops up in the box there’s arrows and you use them to do just one room. I hope that helps, I do have a video on my page but I can’t link it in the comments as KZbin removed that feature

[@aaliyahbuggg]

See i could do this... but i get so confused once people start talking about adding a basement. Like, how?

[@storm.design]

In the walls section the 5th tool along is called the basement tool you just use that, hope that helps!

[@izabelagodorova3811]

I try to do that but IT dont working

[@Idkkkkkkkktho]

Help it’s saying “cant intersect with roof and it’s not letting me place the stairs!!

[@Idkkkkkkkktho]

And yes I have bb.moveobjects on

[@Idkkkkkkkktho]

Sorry I did it

[@titisarikusumawardhani383]

Maybe your wall is too short? Try changing it the tall one

[@your_fyp21]

is this on the gallery ?

[@Itachisgirl1996]

I've got everything else functional but the bed won't work

[@storm.design]

Make sure there’s nothing under the centre part of the bed

[@tamaramarshall5420]

I can't seem to understand why you have made this so much more complicated than in needs to be but it's pretty

[@storm.design]

It’s meant for tiny homes, instead of using two floors which uses more tiles. ☺️

[@rans0927]

I dont get the shelf part. Why do you need to do that?

[@storm.design]

To make a fake floor or you’ll have a floating bed, you don’t have to just preference

[@xythrial]

Im confused about what the basement part did

[@storm.design]

The bed looks like its floating since there's no floor. If you put the shelves under the bed on the regular level the bed wouldn't be functional so putting them in the basement and raising them up makes the bed still functional

[@rafaelagomes140]

How can i raise the objectives up on my laptop? I'm asking 'cause the Ctrl 9 doesn't work. Ps.: I have a Dell Inspiron

It is, my ID is StormDesignYT

[@JJ-el6qx]

Wats the point of the shelves in the basement?

Just to create a faux floor so the bed doesn’t look like it’s floating

[@livvylivvy23]

what does adding a basement do in this case ?

She replied to another comment that adding the basement/shelves is so the bed would have a "floor" instead of just floating there 😊

@@xykarijehywat0814 ahh thank u !

[@Amandavasc]

Wait, can the sims walk over the shelves??? 🤨

I sadly not they’re just they’re to fake a floor. This would work without the shelves underneath. The bed just has to be close to the edge of the platform

[@lauraerwin471]
