@@SatchOnSims Oh my god i love Aura!! I've been using them for a couple years now and it has such a huge difference in my life and is noticable when I do or don't use it. Its important to note they do all kinds of meditation, reiki, hypnosis, yoga, midfullness and CBT training etc as well as sleep. They even have ones geared rtowards a kid audience or post breakup, isolation, pretty much anything. I recently got out of the habit of using it and I am doing so much worse lately... Thanks for the reminder! I'm so glad you both partnered for this that's so cool! I hope its still helping you Satch!!

For the third hack, even if you don't own DHD or HSY, you can do it with the plastic shelf, the one that has no towels on it. It also slots almost anything and you can do the same trick, basegame approval. Edit: the shelf is called "Towel Storage Rack, Empty"

Thank you!!

[@AdamManeYT]

2:01 These words work only with Alexa but you need to first set up "The Sims" skill which the notification in the game won't tell you. After you set it up, it will just give you a trivia about The Sims if you say one of these words but because of how smart speakers work (they try to match your mumbling to a real word) it does work 1 out of 10 times. 😅

[@hiyaimjenni]

I'm wanting an alarm clock in sims so bad that forces them to wake up at a certain time every day.

[@sahm_and_bean]

Yes! Why do we not have this?

[@chatterboxblonde6095]

The sunrise alarm clock by Lot 51 CC does this!!

[@runawayfaeIX]

Yesssss please!!

[@ArtfullyGifted]

Little tip: there's a vent in debug that won't attach to a wall. You can use it to fill in spaces and it comes in different swatches.

[@laurac.liebana9768]

The smart speaker hack is major game changer in the lockdown challenge! Maybe you could try?

[@l0u_xox]

Lockdown challenge?

[@runawayfaeIX]

​@@l0u_xox The quarantine challenge by sydney-simsyt, in a nutshell, is that your Sim(s) can't leave their home, ever. Not even on the porch.

[@chasondunford3779]

I’d use the smart speaker more if the sims didn’t want to play music every 5 freakin seconds. It’s why I hardly put stereos in my builds 😩

[@prisle]

Omg ikr, when you put a speaker in the bedroom and a sim that's still up decides to just go in there and wake up the sim that's already sleeping

[@roxaslove23]

I said Farble to my Alexa and she said “No”. 😂

[@OwenMcleanMP]

When I said doofka it told me about cats

[@SatchOnSims]

weird...

[@imperishablestars33]

[@kristena5825]

Google gave me a random music station, info about someone named Corinne Dufka(?), and she was very confused about the last one. Then when I said all 3 words she said "good, it's all good" the first time but then she says she doesn't understand if I try again, which I find concerning...😳

[@boston_octopus]

This was so much fun! I feel like I've been playing Sims 4 for 20 years, but I never see a lot of the in-game objects and don't use the full extent of building tools.

...isn't the Sims 4 only like 9 years old?

You can also grab the spine and change the posture in CAS

[@HarshMelon]

My Alexa also played Fireball when I said Farble. I wasn't getting any response to the other two words, and I kept saying them over and over. Eventually, Alexa suggested that I chat with an AI chat box!

[@TophatTalulah]

Omg I'm so glad you did a roof video from sahm and bean!! Her build videos are amazing, she definitely deserves a bigger following!

[@aqualuvor95]

The speaker probably never caught on too much bc when it first came out, if you placed it in a sims house it would corrupt your save. I’ve never used it bc, even though they fixed it, I’m still paranoid lol

[@sahm_and_bean]

Lol of course it would Edit: to clarify, but doubting you! Just.... it's such a Sims thing, having a brilliant new asset cause alllll the problems

[@miss-megative2683]

I tried the smart speaker thing and Alexa had no clue wtf I was asking lol

[@nikkamagizia]

That's how I've been roofing all my houses since the sims 2 days! Lately I've been mixing it up and adding the occasional gabled roof piece, but the overlapping hipped roofs are always the core. Also from the sims 2, before i discovered the m key to change slots (sadly no longer in sims 4) i used placeholder objects to fill slots all the time. Usually the ikea vasen vase

[@itsalexisp]

I asked my Alexa and she either turned off or said I'm not sure so now I just feel like an idiot

[@wandauriel]

Congratulations on sponsor! 🥳 Roof hack will be my favorite! It's always so messy to do..

[@UnHuecoEnMiCorazon]

I don't really learn anything new in this game anymore, but I didn't know a lot of these hacks!!

[@sahm_and_bean]

I had no idea the speaker did all those things! But free services and food sounds like a great rags to riches hack 🤔 The wall slot on the barn is also news to me 😅 I need to decorate and play more and not just build all the time.

[@SatchOnSims]

Thanks for the hack!

[@aimitolla]

I have been using the shelving hack for a while, however, I use the "empty towel shelf" that's base game!

[@SimsyHazel]

OMG THIS IS HIS FIRST SPONSOR!!! I'm so proud of you

[@nedrane297]

My problem with LinZ is that you develop a personal relationship with and if it likes you things are awesome. But if it doesn't like you? It didn't like my sim because it took interactions wrong and life was bad, really really bad. Ok, I actually did stuff like that for the shelves in the same way we do for counters to make them more cluttered or just balanced sometimes, didn't know those shelves hold bigger items. That's huge. Wow, that space on the animal shed is awesome. I knew about the neck from English Simmer, she goes on about straightening the back as well.

[@aliciacooper8662]

What happens when you have a bad relationship with the speaker? 😵

[@shawnmorgynski220]

OMG you made my Alexa tell me very bad jokes. also it doesn;t know what "Farble" means. Honesetly neither do I I just use it as an an alarm clock that is always listening to me - ALWAYS.

Issue with the 3rd hack, if you toggle walls down, all of the items will still be visible and floating during gameplay

[@MementoMori0915]

Another thing you can do in CAS is their back posture 🙂, I believe if you hover over their upper back (around where the shoulders blades are) you can make them have a good posture (straight) or (a very good one for elders) have them slouch over, I personally don’t use it often, BUT it is a nice detail. 🙂

[@irmar]

Why would you put the wooden spoons and spices high up where you cannot reach them, and away from the cooking area? Tell me you never cook without telling me you never cook. LOL!

[@user-fw6xs5ko6g]

thank you satch for your videos ^^ I am always looking forward to them!

[@deppie9657]

Litetally thousands of hours in the game and i didnt know some of these hacks!

It's called "home farmer starter kit" and it's from GET TOGETHER?!?! I have been searching so hard for a flipping pitchfork, omfg. TAGS, EA! Figure it out!!!!!!!!

[@alyssafinch6853]

Aprons make sense for milking.

[@MrScrelli]

Lol, I didn't know that I can change the size of the feet... I always change the lenght of them but didn't know about the size XD

[@markdicristofaro904]

Another reason why I dislike Maxis. They couldn't have just added a feature that allows me to place objects on shelves without all of these cheat codes? And I can't use the cheat codes unless I own the Home Decorator DLC? This game is more of pain than it's worth. And on top of everything else? They don't even have an in-depth in-game map of what the keyboard's keys do. And if you want to find out all of the cheat codes, they don't even post a complete list of the cheats on their trusted website. Cheats that they have created. I'm not a violent person, I'm absolutely against any form of violence. But after everything that I've had to deal with on my Xbox and PC version of this game? I would be willing to make an exception if I ever meet a creator of the Sims 4. I wouldn't do any permanent damage. Violence, even verbal, bothers me. But a stiff slap to the back of the head of any Sims 4 creators? I highly possible. If you ever saw Tom Hanks in A League of Their Own, when he is trying to be nice to the lady, Evelyn, who keeps missing the cut-off man? That would be me times ten. These creators made everything harder than it needed to be. Believe me, I try to understand that it can be hard to catch every mistake while working with a time limit. But these people don't seem to even try to use common sense.

[@liahnotleah]

Maybe I just said the 3 simlish words wrong, but every time I said one of the words Alexa just turned off and ignored me. Except for one time where she said "Sorry, I don't know that".

[@haileytasker8899]

Omg lol Satch I could listen to you saying “Pizza! Pepperoni Pizza!” All daayyyy 😂😋🤗🍕🍕🍕🍕

[@CarmindyOnline]

SAHM and BEAN is one of my favorite youtubers for Sims4 content. She has the best building tips. Definitely worth a follow :)

[@Velezfam23]

I said those words to Alexa and nothing happened except for Farble. It played that Pitbull song… BOOOO 👎

[@clashfan2875]

I haven't even gotten to the third hack yet and I'm blown away. I might actually build something in this game. Roofing makes me cry, I'm not even kidding. I wonder if the affirmation was the free maid and pizza?

[@scbbc8186]

farble is a show with billy bob thorton. (I think he is the guy that dated Angelina Jolie and they wore eachothers blood on their necklase) - From an Amazon Echo Dot. Edit: apparently a doofka is a clear plastic cup with a girl on one side and a boy on the other side. Chumcha is apparently a pokemon.

[@dixie1012345678]

Satch! I’ve been following so long and so proud to see a sponsor on this video! Keep the ads coming😉

[@ClaireyFairySims4]

The only issue with LinZ is that I find the music stops playing when you’re not interacting with it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe it just hates me. 😂

[@dm9241]

None of the words worked with my Alexa. I was sad. I actually deleted my speaker in game because I was sick of eating pizza ALL the time!

[@M335h1]

Hack 3 awe remember when we had to download the red shelf for this. The red shelf still works a little better because you can just delete the shelf and the object stays but these work arounds are wonderful.

[@someones_channel511]

Did you know, in CAS, if you hover over your sim’s back, you can change their posture?

[@Hannah-Kathrine01]

this might be something everyone knows, I just recently found out accidentally but in Sims 4 you can also change their posture 😂

Excuse me? I never knew about Lin-Z! … maybe cause my friends never talked to it lol

With the smart speaker a fast way to make friends with it is to keep asking it to play random music 😂

[@hnlong8531]

Why does summon grilled cheese not work correctly anymore?

[@Al0neStillAlive]

Hack 3 isn't very useful if you have the red shelf mod. If you do it the wat the video here shows you those items will be floating in the air when the walls are down.

[@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874]

If you're good friends with the speaker and you house is dirty, something broken or your sim is hungry, it will order services for you for free.

[@frauhund]

Satch, I am waiting for another "turning a table into a house" video. those were so good and creative!

[@Krazykitty001]

7:18 saw somebody using the empty version of the base game towel rack shelf and turns out a lot of larger objects fit onto it.

[@melindamichaels1313]

[@minasafija3401]

[@MissPotatoHead1234]

3:37 am i the only one who had a mini heart attack coz it said one direction.... probably 🤣

[@Kualinar]

One thing that I find annoying with the Lin-Z speaker is when it orders some free pizza. I eventually get a message from the delivery guy about nobody answering at the door... But he never ever show up, EVEN if I have a Sim standing at the door waiting for him and me doing nothing but watch for his arrival. I got dozens of pizza left to the ants... That are nowhere to be seen.

[@PoisonLatex]

If you have the lot trait private dwelling or even if you had clicked on the front door and had clicked disallow solicitors both will forbid the pizza delivery person & the zoomers delivery person from arriving at your door.

[@Kualinar]

@@PoisonLatex Never used the Private dwelling trait. Maybe I locked the front door and forgot about it. Need to do further testing. Thank for the hint 😎

[@ohthatchick7544]

Not specifically a LinZ thing for me, but I've had problems with my sims ordering pizza since release. Sometimes they will order and it will say its on the way and just never show up. I eventually figured out not to bother ordering late at night, because it never works. I haven't tried in a long time though. So if LinZ is ordering you late night pizza, that could be the problem. It's like the pizza place closes but they still let you order lol
