The Sims 3: Craftsman House

[@jasonjkehoe]

Before I watched your videos i gave up on house building then watching you build inspired me; now all my friends love the houses i create Thank you.

[@KSM0121]

This is crazy, this came out 10 years ago now... wow... and I’m still playing the sims 3... we give the sims team a lot of crap for the sims 4 but we’ve got to remember the memories and enjoyment they gave us 😊👌 so glad I grew up with this, thanks Curtis

[@JaneMagdalena]

I was going to study about two hours ago and I ended up watching your videos. No regret. I am quite confident with my own houses, but you, sir, are like master of this skill. These videos are fun to watch and pretty inspirational too. Thanks :-)

[@walrusmeyers5639]

he should so make a house building/planning tips&advice video

[@Islandboytb]

By far your best house so far, fantastic interior design. You color scheme worked really well throughout the house.

[@fridanygren2558]

Wow, I am absolutley stunned. I have watched a couple of your house building videos, and I can't stop!

[@JacobMinger]

Honestly, I have to say that I think this is my favorite house that you've built Curtis. I love the Craftsman style, and I like how you built it in The Base Game, which means that I can download it...

[@dorkygirl16]

your the first person i've seen put trees at their house!!!!! most people sell their trees for more money but it gives your house a great look....

[@petris112]

Curtis, thanks SO much for only using base game furniture in the game, now I'm able to download it! Also, you're a genius for coming up with ways to furnish the house while still making it look awesome :)

[@LoleexRU]

Beeeaaauuutiful house. They added tons of wood options especially for houses like this.

[@junkaccount4297]

If i ever get the chance to design my own house in real-life, i'll just walk in to an architect's office, show him this video, and say "make this house"

[@druwuboo]

Even if i dont play, i love the way you build these houses

[@3blondegirls1]

I LOVE your videos. Even since I don't have the sims , when I wach your videos , it makes me feel like I have them

[@CardMaster333]

Why do loads of people feel the need to complain !! If you don't like the video, DON'T WATCH IT, no-one cares if Curtis said something wrong or forgot to mention something, he is a legend !!

[@UltimatePopcorn2011]

Your houses are always so much better than the ones I create. Keep up the good work!

[@SuperChelsayy]

That's amazing, I could never build like that. I'm so jealous! I'm really gonna have to practice to get as good as you :)

[@MsRose818]

I love this house so much!!!! I wish I could build a house as gorgeous as that one.

[@XxFansofFansxX]

Even without store content or expansion and stuff content it looks better than any sims house I've seen !

[@briteeni]

A trick I always use to make the counter islands curve is to connect them to a fridge or stove. That way it looks more natural!

[@Jguy365]

Thank you so much for the tip on the columns! It looks bad when they are hidden behind the railing. That cheat is a good thing for a guy like me who does traditional houses on Sims that almost always include covered porches or porticoes.

[@axeell92]

OMG, what a nice house! I would have loved to live here!

[@MsCulinary24]

Oh my goodness I LOVE watching your videos!! Have you ever thought about doing the house from the 90s show Home Improvement? I loved that show!

[@HeatherFeather141]

im sooo downloading this! normally i dont like modern houses. but this one isnt. sooo i looove itt! your right its perfect for generations!

[@Jguy365]

Thanks for the tip about the attached garage! I really needed that.

[@Muriah17]

i watch these vids 24/7 but i don even hav sims 3, so i make my friend download them onto her sims. but she loves you too!!!

[@Kelian14]

I always click thumbs up before watching the video. I just know that it will be marvellous :D And again, I was right. I love your houses!

[@lmmg246]

AAAAAAH! Your houses are so amazing! Just... wow! I can't wait to download this and play it! Already have the perfect family for it! :)

[@XxRockhopperxX]

wow, ima start playing sims 3 again if i get a laptop this summer... i want to download this house it looks really nice... best house you've made!!! hopefully i get straight a's to get a laptop!!!

[@Barbielover00]

Thank you!!! I've been wonder about the noing triangel floor... Don't know how to say it. But i think that things gonna be much easyer now!

[@jakegamer97]

this is probably my favorite house that you've made

[@Sorabladess]

@9doors16 Just because he said not to ask for no custom content requests, it doesn't mean that he can't build without cc. He was simply saying that it was his choice whether or not he would put cc in, and that was it. No rule breaking as far as I can see ;D

[@Slamman58]

thank u ive been wondering when u would do a house without expansion packs

[@Voroxhunter48]

THIS could have been our christmas present; a house everybody can download regardless of expansion pack/stuff pack collection. start thinking, curtis.

[@juiceworm]

@nerdygirl156 The Sims 3 Generations Expansion pack has bunk beds, so buy that if you want a bunk bed that works.

[@MinecraftHardcore101]

Dear Curtis; I adore this house! I've already got my massive country-cowboys/cowgirls moved in in Appaloosa Plains, and there having a blast. Hank sure does like that gym... Anyways, my point of leaving this message is to request. I know Curtis only accepts requests via moderator, but this isn't direct. MAKE MORE BASE-GAME HOUSES! I will gladly donate my thumbs, donated all two of them. I bookmarked the video, donated my stars and put my subscription ticket into your pockets. But I would love to see some houses without any extra content. Thank you! -Your Number 100000000 Sims 3 Fan XD

[@JuliaMonika]

How does he like choose a wallpaper and then makes it automatically goes onto the whole room's wall and same with the flooring??? :O

[@jodykidd82]

Hi Curtis it would be awesome if you would build the Taylor house from the home improvement tv show that would be amazing if you would build it thank you for your time have a grate day!!!

[@janeysawesomee]

this is my favorite house that you ever created

[@MissKanaide]

@ElChristo You can turn items freely in the Sims 3 when you hold down Shift I think :) If it's not shift, it's Crtl. They can use the items without a problem. The sims 3 is awesome, have fun!

[@Shaarme00]

I love this house. The only problem I see and, for me, the only thing I would change is, there should be more windows which add more light inside. By having just one enormous window with the same design of those small ones, the wall will see more clear, not filled with tons of windows. Great job, by the way! n_n

[@zachleming]

can u make a video showing how to make a rounded pool cause i cant figure it out and u taught me some cool stuff in here i knew how to make the triangle tiles a different way but ur way is easier and the 360 thing i knew i could do that but not how and i love how u say garage lol

[@Jadecoolgirl1]

love this house,i have sims 3 but only the first plus my birhtday is in the same month as sims 3 pets is released to the public cant wait to see what they have done with this game!The only down side is i have no downloaded content from the EA store because i cant be spending the money so i`m happy he made this house pretty much with only the origanal games stuff!

[@BEKKAB0099]

@pepsi4eva87 there is no cheat, but If you are playing the game and you go to options i think it is or something like that you can change it so you can see the reflection, sry I'm not that good at explaning but I hope it helped Ps. you can also change a bunch of other small details and stuff to look better

[@robbie4233334]

@SuicidalMonday After a patch from a while ago. Right after Adventures came out, the patch let you build basements.

[@chikker20]

Q&A: how do you use the cheat Motherload???

[@habbotjejen]

I don't know if i can ask you to build a house but if i can i would love to see how you build a kind of vampire castle/house. I Would love that thank you for taking your time to read this!

[@jmmlfc]

Wow this is one of the best houses I've ever seen u build P.S. do u ever read these comments if u do plz reply 😄😄

[@DOLLiii3]

this house is BEAUTIFUL thank you

[@Bandito579]

Even though I have all the store content and EP/SP as Curtis I like this house the best

[@eatmyjooce]

Hey curtis, why don't you create a live-in kinda dexters lab kinda theme house with an outlook tower with maybe a balconey observatory type piece of the house, but it'dd be rather large, but i'd say it's mostly for the small group kinda of pad.

[@Ipodforabrain]

This house is so cool! Your random accents are hilarious. I love the hedges (anyone else notice the monty python joke?)

[@themexicandulce]

How did he said he connected the garage to the foundation house? And I like the way he created this house with only the base game.

[@MrThebestbrownie]

You should build more base game houses! You are really good!

[@A3r0p0stal30]

I love all the houses... MAKE MORE!

[@elysianemily]

In Oregon, there are A LOT of craftsmen houses and I think this is a pretty good old style craftsmen :)

[@dealwithitxoxo]

i found ur videos relax to watch :D when u have a new video-gets headphones,lies on bed and relaxx :D

[@Zerogreelynn]

I have a question... You know how he can do the lights so theres a higher set one a middle ground light and then a low one....how do you scoot them up and down the wall? I got the TV to sit pretty high on the wall once, and then another time low. But I couldn't figure out what I pressed that worked.

[@beepboop449]

@chikker20 okay, so first you push ctrl, shift c. then a little boxy thing pops up and you write "motherlode" spelled like that and you keep doing that until you get enough money.

[@AbbyMarie03]

@FresherDanAMaufu No its just walls, you can delete them(: hope that helps, if your talking about the floor to floor stairs(:

[@mynameisntlucka]

@ilovecatsforlife123 he is using his laptop not the regular pc. he only installs the sims 2 expansion packs in the regular pc (bad english, i know)

[@ColtraneAndRain]

Curtis, I wish I could get blueprints to build this house in real life! Love craftsman style!

[@09yulstube]

Could you do like a smaller house? Like for a three or four person family...

[@MichaelJackson23451]

Happy Simming to you too Curtis!!! :)

[@Queen_Nyxie]

Do you guys know if he uses control + f to corner the deck as well as the tiles? I would play around to try to figure it out myself, but I don't have a break from work until next Monday and I don't want to wait that long to put it in my notes.

[@Calza321]

gawd i hate roofing so much :( so tricky on xbox :( amazin, curtis! nice to see you back :D

[@simaddict95]

Can you do the close objects thing with the sims 2 as well?

[@ac817421cc]

You should make. A dream geek house all based on tech and a modern style.

[@Kims07006]

@chelsealauren2010 you make a very good point, i hadn't thought of it like that, but i suppose i didn't like it as much as others isn't because of it's complexity, but because it seemed cluttered with many small rooms that most likely won't b used. Either way, i am still amazed by his talent for creating houses & creating decor for his houses

[@SemperFidelisToTheEn]

@stephcaft i have the xbox version too and i was so unhappy with 95% of the stuff on it that i ordered ALL of the expansions and the main game for the PC, and it should be in tomoro. From someone who knows i Recommend the pc version oover anything

[@Jguy365]

Do you know how to install an L-shaped staircase? There was a cheat that I found but I couldn't get it to work quite right.

[@miccidudedavid]

I want to ask how to get the washer and dryer, and what they actually do for the Sims....

[@LoleexRU]

@pepsi4eva87 I do know you can modify how much reflection you want in the game over all by going into the options within the game. You should give that a look. :)

[@PlumbobsandMachineguns0]

One of my favorite houses for three reasons: He tested it out No Store content used He probably put a lot of effort into it, I can tell.

[@kaejothibs]

I love that it has only base game stuff (since I'm a new Simmer and only have the base game). No proxies!

[@YUMMY15ness]

U rock. When I get the sims 3 (if eva) im gonna Download dis house immediately. I already have a Family in mind 4 it!

[@laurynfenderson3811]

I love this house because you only used stuff from the base game thanks!!!😄😄😃😃

[@CoolJUST]

Wow, this is wonderful and creative.

[@sarahhartman5814]

How do you get the perfect line of bushes like on the border?

[@lavender_moon11]

i like it! i've been trying to build this kind of house on my own, but it never turned out very...nice lol. so thnx :D

[@samanthamcintyre2764]

Your amazing! I wish I could do sims houses like that :( Keep it up!

[@baciandrio]

Woot! Welcome Back! Missed Ya!

[@AbbyMarie03]

Curtis, how do you make the pool water and mirrors look like very realalistic? Like the glare and reflection?

[@BmacTheMachine]

i like the garage and driveway

[@classylassy7840]

I love the dark wood in this house.

[@althyastar]

[@amanda24america]

[@princess052099]

[@thanksmisfortune]

@gta4rulesass i think it will import regardless, it just won't have the custom content included, correct?

[@talisa1116]

other than that i love how you did the house. I love everything!!

[@ErinABray]

How do you change the tree sizes to what you want?

[@EverythingAnimalsCA]

wow your houses look way better than the originals in the game!

[@oranoneill5815]

[@thelawley1]
