Sorry to ask but what PC do you have because I want to get one for my little sister who wants to make a Sims four account but she wants a PC that she can download mods on and play Sims four❤

[@eekns]

If you complete the Nerd Brain aspiration you get the Handy trait. With that you can instantly upgrade one item every 24 hours. It completes every upgrade on the item in one action and you don't need to use any upgrade parts.

[@Tamsin_bear]

Ooh I didn’t know that!

[@anaisschneider2344]

That’s why I love the sims community

[@NishDontGame]

That’s awesome gaming

[@emerald_mtn]

My favorite aspiration!! So worth it for fully upgrading the animal shed and coop without those stupid parts I can never get.

[@Luxxeditz]

Literally my mom just said that lol

[@fableSimmer]

Don't forget that at Level 10 of the Handiness skill you can finally go to the Forgotton Grotto, the secret world within Oasis Springs! There are two entrances: One behind the Landgraab Mansion down below and one at the park up above. There you can find the Batfish for those looking to complete their collections!

[@MrsFlowerpot]

I wish she would have included this in the video

[@dacemuzik4ever]

You can upgrade beds as well. They added that in an update a few years ago, but they didn't bother to change the text in the pop-ups of handiness skill. I think you can do that around level 7.

[@Cherrykitchen]

1 upgrade available at level 6 and level 8

[@Potatolampphone3936]

You get the option to add massage controls and mattress firmness

[@strick405]

And sims get a full sleep bar super quickly.

[@GinitraElle]

I discovered that recently, and thought that's so freaking random lol

[@johntheherbalistg8756]

The upgrades make a huge difference to your stuff. Upgraded beds and the seldom sleepy reward trait together are flat broken. My current family's parents both have that trait with a fully upgraded bed and they sleep about four hours every other night. So much time to write books, paint and take care of more kids. They have two children, a toddler and twin infants and still manage to finish two books each, weekly

[@iBe_Sarah]

I REALLY want a compilation video of Karla telling the welcome wagon to fuck off 😂

[@Bast_the_Black]

You can also upgrade beds with 2 upgrades, very helpful for making cheaper beds more comfortable.

[@troebeliewoep]

Came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed!

[@johntheherbalistg8756]

Or you can make expensive beds god tier. Partnered with seldom sleepy and a good coffee pot, your sims will have all the time for everything

[@heg203]

Best upgrade

[@Tamsin_bear]

And I just thought handiness was useful for not calling the repair technician all the time! I love these skill videos you do because it encourages me to actually use parts of the game I wouldn’t usually

[@CiiStarr]

I LOVE how colorful you make all of your lots. I try so hard to work with color and somehow I slip back into neutrals mid decor ha I'm trying so hard; taking notes!

[@jinx17]

Just a heads up, adding a compost to the toilet will sometimes cause it to catch on fire if you don't use the compost 😂 MCCC has a cheat that will enable instant upgrades that use no parts too, so I always cheat max handiness and upgrade everything

[@sim771]

“We’ll keep them away from any mirrors” 😂🤣😂 that made me laugh out loud new insult unlocked 💀💀

[@aloeveera4134]

Hey Carla, I just wanted to let you know you've been helping me get through a lot lately. Thank you for doing what you do even if it's just you having fun in the sims I bet you'd make it entertaining. sending you love :)

[@taintedfeels1048]

“That’s the kinda bugs you have ewhh “ got me 💀💀😭😭😭😂

[@MelissaLawrence2002]

My name is Melissa, and it was nice to hear someone tell me I did a good job 😂😭

[@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874]

You should try the Fabrication skill. Combining that with Handiness and you can furnish a whole damn house.

[@heg203]

Beds are by far the most useful upgrade you can do - their comfort level and stress relief go WAY up when you upgrade them.

[@melissaelizabeth94]

RE: “you know you’ve made it when you have a bidet” I always thought that too but I just found out that there are $25 bidets on Amazon. I’m considering it…. 🤔

[@Benz1659]

I was wondering if you've ever maxed out your relationship with the "Lin-Z Smart Speaker" in electronics of Sims 4? I'm trying to figure out if I have an especially snarky one, or it's just not good form to "yell at" it just because it yells at you first. 😅

[@BananaBunch-bu5pv]

Hope the moving is going ok

[@pds72]

For bug farms: Craft a wooden toilet (or buy a cheap one) and upgrade to composting then place it outside next to your farm. Shorter trip back and forth if you have multiple farms and then you don't have to worry about forgetting about it and have your bathroom on fire. Fire Toilets: You can "upgrade" other sim's toilets. Learned this from the Eco job task. Needed to upgrade more toilets than I had so did all the neighbor's toilets. Took me a while to figure out why their bathrooms were always catching on fire. Do with that what you will. NOTE: It will only fill up with compost while you are there.

[@eth1111]

You also need the antenna from the scientist career for the reception update to work. I think it unlocks a channel from Sixam

[@harumaki707]

How about some pet skills for the next video? There's Pet training and Veterinarian skills if I'm not mistaken.

[@Feluffle]

Noooo, you forgot the bed! Poor forgotten bed ☹️ LOL Bit dumb they didn’t add that to the pop ups. Typical Sims 4. I think you can upgrade hot tubes as well. And washing machine / dryer. Love your videos! Hope you settle back in the UK ok.

[@lynfletcher7744]

i knew about that ages ago

[@Feluffle]

Same. It's been a while! James Turner always upgrades all the beds 😂

[@Banana34598]

I never thought I would feel good about myself for having a bidet… but Thank you so much 😇

[@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874]

If you go to Granite Falls and have a high handiness skill, you can study the plans for the mascot statue and then you can make it on the woodowrking bench. It's actually quite cute.

[@dear_totheheart]

Imagine putting the insect farm by your bed

[@dear_totheheart]

Also wish they'd keep adding more update/woodworking/sculpting options per pack, we need more cross pack compatibility! Like Karla wonder if we got anything new with Horse Ranch? If not, major missed opportunity

[@BananaBunch-bu5pv]

If you haven’t done rocket science that could be one you do next

[@junetta_aep_breaccglas]

I second this! I never really bother with that skill and curious what you can do with the skill, The only thing I know about is that the higher that skill is the less chances you die by rocket

[@Alliappalachian]

Yes!!

[@SimplyDeeSims]

You should try all the aspirations as well

[@dihlanquinn7927]

There’s a cave you can only explore if you’re level 10 handiness

[@lynfletcher7744]

also the one in oasis springs

[@AllyzeeTita]

I love ur vids cuz their so funny and i like hearing ur voice! British voices r so smooth

[@GinaGodfrey]

Really enjoying these skill deep dives :) Hope the move is going okay

[@clairemercer3099]

In Oasis Springs there's a mine you can enter once you max out the handiness skill. I've never maxed out my skills but it would be interesting to see that mine

[@DFreakus]

I thought you said "Phyrexian wiring" and i couldn't believe I had missed such an easter egg! Haha.

[@Shell05231]

I always build up the handiness skill but then I dont utilise it, I keep forgetting you can upgrade the toilet, the sink, and the PC so I'm loving that I've learned a lot from this video, in my current save I'm going to have them go on an upgrading spree lol! 😅 I need to create more wooden furniture too lol, I remember the sister wives vid too! 😄 Lol toilet fires are a thing in Lilsimsie's vids, I keep meaning to upgrade an appliance with my Sim that does have an insect farm to see what it does, as the insects are a butt to keep happy lol! But it seems you'll be answering that question for me...yay! 🥳 Ahh you forgot about the bed lol! Pretty sure they can all be upgraded 🤔 I think those were the new channels? 🤔 I've loved this vid too! 😍🥰

[@Nameless_Night]

I wish they could add updates to furniture (couches and chairs) ror footstools and/or recliner options

[@junetta_aep_breaccglas]

Handiness is kinda op ngl

[@ashlieparis4372]

I wonder if a sim can go into other homes and fix/upgrade items. And take 'payment' through stealing. Just as you had done with the maid.

[@MorriganNoel]

My knees hurt just watching her crouch over that toilet in block heels 😢

[@Mystic_Moon00]

You didn't upgrade her bed though? No massages while she sleeps then.

[@eszterperjesi1273]

You can also upgrade the bed for for less sleep time witch is quite usefull in the gameplay.

[@dnil582]

You’re fcking hilarious!!! I’m so glad I found your channel

[@taliahscott1927]

Karla, when is your birthday? Btw your videos have become part of my daily/weekly routine along side dashiegames 🥰 y’all are my absolute favorite personalities on here

[@lunalou10]

Did you know that you can also upgrade the bed too I think at level 9, there’s 2 options and they give sims mood buffs

[@evamoisehanover4292]

so by upgrade the bathroom and kitchen stuff based on the skills going up!!

[@mystryx7931]

If you know instruments you can craft them. I have a store selling violins and guitars for example.

[@sobruhkey]

6:44 insect farm is in build mode, but I'm sure you've found it by the end of the video

[@Jesswatchtheseries]

All my sims hated the handy skill 🤣🤣🤣.

[@lylawinters4055]

Hope moving is going well ❤

[@mrmushroomman9617]

Next one should be charisma skill.

[@tigertie7701]

You can upgrade the beds😊

[@kellystenger2912]

"I think I need an insect farm... which isn't exactly like Einstein - The toilet told me that ages ago..." Things that only make sense to Sims players 😂

[@Lunatful]

Thanks for skill building videos! U help to win in this game)

[@MarcFutoran]

Can a sim move into an empty house, with just basic appliances, and a woodworking table, then upgrade the appliances and build all their own furniture?

[@deb1674]

She is so busy upgrading I haven't seen her eat anything, lol. Everything will be upgraded, but she will die of starvation😅

[@latoyabrown9107]

I upgrade stuff until I get to upgrade the bed. (level 6 I think). It totally improves my game play.

[@anishajackson7075]

What does it do to the bed?

[@junetta_aep_breaccglas]

​​@@anishajackson7075Mattress Firmness and Massage Controls Massage Firmness gives your sim a good mood buff everytine they wake up and Massage Controls (totally reccommend getting this upgrade) fills your sims energy motive at a greater rate!

[@Kangnayong01]

Whiny Brit i love your videos and it’s always helps my days❤and I did one time went to sleep and i didn’t mean too 😅

[@nathaliabloomfield5772]

The poor bugs never got fed but didnt die also the dream home decorated show is not new but came in the pack not sure about anything else cause u don't have movie hangout and stuff with tv channels tbh

[@mojyoqueen350]

Until the very last second I hoped you upgrade the bed... Because you can do that, you know?

[@Stayville_Clown]

It’s possible that I‘m mixing stuff up here but can’t you also upgrade the bed in the sims 4 or am I completely stupid rn? I could swear I‘ve seen the **upgrade** option on a bed before but I could be wrong so I‘m not sure anymore. I will look into my game tomorrow to find out

[@Sokew86]

Can you make her a musical instruments crafter ? I''ve never seen somebody do it

[@tegandetermann3299]

...😂 I just installed a bidet at home. I'm on Disability and my roommate works for Walmart. They're only 150. It's not like we're swiming in it.

[@nonameno8065]

every sim i play gets handiness 10 and all their stuff upgraded, i cant play any other way

[@yulin.n]

You can upgrade the bed too

[@kavorgraham4399]

You didn’t complete the challenge the bed is also upgradable

[@MeridiaSmith-st7fi]

Fun fact tree houses increase your handiness skill by just about 3 extra sorry if you already did this in the video I'm just typing this in at the beginning

[@Lefunbags]

Accuracy about the bidet 😅

[@ajcambern]

You can gain handiness by watching home decorate TV.

[@magpiepie7051]

😢 You forgot the bed

[@markdicristofaro904]

Whiny you are so crude, it's hilarious. LOL.

[@gqueen915]

Did you know you could upgrade the bed too?

[@nemofish3504]

I do like the handiness skill, but when I upgrade like a fridge or sink to not break as often, it doesn’t seem to help it? It still breaks just as much

[@Ariayilzpt]

Yeah, that really sucks. Everything constantly breaks despite being upgraded.

[@McKenzies-storytimes]

u can upgrade the bed

[@Javibe339]

away from any mirrors

[@BEEDRILL303]

Not the compahsting, it'll set your toilet on fire...

[@ellahenry6895]

oh my god imagine if there was a vpn sponsorship with the ip spoofer-

[@GabrielaGranados-c7d]

What about the bed?

[@Heart_eyes227]

What mods do you use ?

[@Daedreamer223]

I might be stupid asking this cuz I haven’t seen your older vids but…. FACE REVEAL PLS?!? ☺☺☺

[@yomiseno]

Wow

[@joanneparkin5389]

[@shotgunbettygaming]

Yeah I had 2 Sims get the mental Fog/Burnout/Mental Block....I immediately started looking for the option to turn it off. It's not conducive IN ANY WAY to my game playing and is a total buzzkill I never wanted. Then to take the option away to turn it off? Really? Yeah, so I had to get a mod just to get back to regular gameplay. I TRIED to follow all the internet instructions, paint if you've a mental block, chess if you've a creative block, etc....NOTHING worked, prevented or sorted the Fog/Block out. Nothing but taking MULTIPLE days off of work which my family could not afford to do. I dominantly play my medieval off-grid Legacy game and my patriarch currently makes $4 a day as a Blacksmith. When he has to take 2 days off of work (when he's only got 3 available) JUST to clear out the mental block, it REALLY hurts the pocketbook. Matriarch is constantly weaving, gardening and cooking to sell things to make money but she's heading into an early grave (maybe it's more medieval than I thought it was). I don't WANT to take 2 days off of work where he can essentially do NOTHING around the house because it's all mental stuff he does, upgrading, repairing, cleaning animal pens, teaching the toddler, etc. It all drives him further into brain block. I get 'realism' in game, but I also get that it's a game and the 'realism' should be alterable to your personal taste, like they give us with being able to turn off the Whims (now Fears/Wants), or any other pack specialties. Not everyone gets brain block irl!! Not everyone needs half the work week off to 'rest' their weak constitutions, people have been going to FULL work weeks for millennia without having 'mental blocks'. My Sim does NOT need a Safe Space!!!!! Is ANYONE loving it?!

[@Azmina_the_warlock]

I've yet to meet a real life person who can give 100% 24/7/365 🤷‍♀️

[@shotgunbettygaming]

@@Azmina_the_warlock Nor have I. You went to the extreme end of the spectrum by not comprehending what I said.

[@Azmina_the_warlock]

@@shotgunbettygaming "not everyone gets brain block irl" yea they do. Not as extreme as TS4 ofc but the game is known for being extreme in these cases. Tuning it down would be useful. Ambitious sims should get it less and lazy & gloomy sims should get it more but we all know this is too much to ask of this game

[@vanguardiris3232]

May I ask what mods you're using, especially for weaving?

[@shotgunbettygaming]

@@Azmina_the_warlock I suppose I shouldn't have abbreviated the thought, I was trying to not write a novella. I probably should have more accurately said that people don't get brain block irl because we know how 1) to mitigate it before it happens as a modern society and 2) understand the importance of mitigating it. Most people I've ever encountered don't experience it because they understand it. Anecdotal, I recognize. Having the option to to tune it's effects or be rid of them entirely would be nice.

HII, i need talk with you

[@AngelHarris-j2b]

[@AmericanMeiling]

You can also upgrade the bed for better comfort & energy 💖 yeah I would have to agree .. handiness is one of my favorite skills and that was before they put extra upgrades on the furniture 😹

[@garcemac]

Running out of this to do in thise dead game? Fair enough.

[@AweirdBinkiBottomDealer]

What PC do you have? I want to get my sister one bc she wants to make a sims 4 acc but her device doesn’t let her have mods and she wants them

[@SirenUndine]

Make sure it's a gaming computer.

[@brittanyblodgett4385]

You can upgrade the bed too
