@@simbellaz I play with the walls up too! Its easier for me.

[@ky.000]

I play with walls up to admire the literal hours of work i spent decorating but I also spend 90% of the time decorating and less time playing with the actual sims

7:21 me who just woke up and needs to take a shower but instead I’m watching this and playing the sims

[@simbellaz]

🤣🤣

[@kamiko70]

this is why i couldnt play the pancakes anymore. i had gotten a notification that they had adopted a baby, Lonny. the baby had no crib, nowhere to sleep, so they left him in the bathroom on the floor upstairs. he cried and cried. then he became a toddler, same thing, he cried and cried and no one would do anything for him. my sim household that was visiting, i added the baby to my family and raised with my own children. it was heartbreaking to watch, i couldnt just leave the poor thing there.

[@simbellaz]

@kamiko70 holy crap! That's crazy, so glad you adopted the poor child!🫠

[@millennialodyssey5956]

The pancake family is the worst in so many ways lol

[@aquamarina5216]

Sorry but I find it a quite silly to blame sims for that given game's limitations and constant bugs. For example for the longest time had a bug that after trying to pick up the infant both my sim and infant would freeze, and I had too literally reset them to brake them out of it, which made feeding infants completely impossible (thank mod Gods for UI cheets extenton). When it comes to lack of baby stuff it is on you boo, because sims literly have no power to modify their house on their own. Also if kid made it to toddlerhood and wasn't snatched by social workers they apparently did SOMETHING, which without any kid furniture, which as I mantions they CAN"T buy on their own, is as good as they can get. Also if they stayed as an unplayed household they were 100% fine since it kinda frezes sims satisfaction and needs, but in this state they aren't most proficient at... well anything, so I still don't see how it was Pancake's fault.

[@simbellaz]

@aquamarina5216 Great point made, but even with gitches and shit, it's still fun to see the experiment play off on it's own. But yes, the stupid game is to blame here, Not the sims

[@markdicristofaro904]

Idk what you're talking about but you can control how much they take care of themselves. I have mine set to if I'm not playing the other Sims in the household they take care of themselves. I haven't seen much of a problem with that setting. In fact sometimes it's hard to get them to listen to me when I want to make them do something.

[@eirinym]

Bob not helping or caring about the child at all? Seems very realistic considering that's how my father was when I was a child. 😅

[@naokimisisuki2659]

A lot of fathers thinks that going to work excludes them from taking care of the child, they don't even remember the birthday of their own child but " i pay the bills 🤓". Obviously not all are like that but is sad how common it is 😢

It wouldn't bother me seeing you add more children to the household. But, you are going to need to interfere with Bob and Elisa's relationship because if you don't, there will be no relationship, never mind any more children. Major LOL!

​@jenniferlizbeth1830 i needed to recap on the next idea with you, hope you get this. But will I add 6 chilldren? Say of different age groups and do the hands-off parenting challenge by controlling everyone via 1 toddler? If you could elaborate a bit more on this I'd appreciate it❤

[@jenniferlizbeth1830]

@@simbellaz That's the idea, mom dad and 6 kiddos. Vary the age of the kiddos as you want. But you can only control one Toddler you can vary the diffuculty by having a teen help to make it easier, or if you want it more difficult, add infants.

At times, Elisa looks like she is trying to give birth, but she's not pregnant? I've played the Sims 4 long enough to recognize the animation, so I don't think that it is my imagination. Maybe I'm wrong, but I doubt it. LOL. It happened twice when she was near the highchair. LOL. It happened once around the time stamp of 640...

[@simbellaz]

@@markdicristofaro904 Ah and you're right, she wasn't giving birth, she has period pains due to the slice of life mod

elisa pancake in my save file just randomly died. I wanna know what happened? How can i get to know? Also, the vampire siblings have a kid and moved out 😭 they still walk around as townies but i cant see which house they moved in anywhere 😢

[@simbellaz]

@nanfahkg1601 For the sims moving out and about, try turning off "Neighborhood Stories" in settings (I believe that's what it's called) By trying to figure out how Eliza died.. if you can find her tombstone, try somehow to make her appear, shift-click on her and say Modify in CAS with the "testingcheats" cheat enabled. Go to the option of occults and see there if you can figure out her cause of death :)

[@nanfahkg1601]

@ on it! that’s a great idea !

[@K4ylasEdits]

Yeah I was playing a game and I got a notification that Eliza had died?! (I never met her and we had no relationship status but my sim still wants to meet her/be nice to her?

@ i found the answer. She was electric shocked. She and Bob have 2 kids, and Bob has no job right now. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 And the vampire siblings adopt kid and a cat then moved to the desert map. bro just dont fear dead anymore.

[@simbellaz]

@nanfahkg1601 woahh crazy! 🫣😱 poor eliza though

[@aquamarina5216]

Unpopular opinion I kinda like both Pankaces and usually in my game they make a pretty good couple, can't remember even one time when they divorced, and I usually don't play with them that much, besides some set dressing at the beginning of the save (I like to set up families the way that I like before I start real game with my own sims) so it's all on them. Also from what I've noticed in my game they usually get "opposites attract" sentiment, so it seems that dispte everything it works out for them, at least in my game. But what's funny is that if I don't add Iggy they usually live their best child-free life because at lest one of them doesn't want kids ( have a mod). No shame to anybody who breaks them up though, I understand and respect it, though in my game I usually do it to Goths, which isn't that difficult since Bella naturally gravitates towards Don.

[@kirisuma2186]

you should really update ui cheats extension... that will fix your glitched events window xD

@kirisuma2186 Is that a thing with normal updates or is it something on it's own??

Interesting. I had one of my sims marry a Tom Pancake the first born son of the Pancakes and then I saw Bob and Eliza had twins after him.

[@markdicristofaro904]

I wonder if everyone all around the world refers to the children as little ones. I refer to children as little ones, and I'm from the USA. Simbellaz is from Africa, I believe, and she refers to children as little ones. It would be interesting if many different nationalities use the same terminology, even if it is a different language. Hym?

[@simbellaz]

@markdicristofaro904 Good question actually, whether I'm South-African or not, we all learn terminology from other nationalities.. i do atleast. There's also alot of afrikaans terms we use (afrikaans people speaking english, like me) that's derived from other languages.
