My channel features Sims 4 news, reviews, and game guides. I've been covering The Sims for 10 years now, starting with The Sims 3. I've always been focused on gameplay and strategy. I have a passion for learning how things work and sharing that information with other players. We've had visits from millions of people over the years, so I decided it was time to take my content to UA-cam to find a wider audience.
My earlier videos were not great, but thanks to feedback from the wonderful people who visited back then I've improved at a lot of the basics. I'm looking forward to covering The Sims 4's latest expansions, and will summarize every bit of major news that Maxis shares with the community. My livestream summaries have become very popular, as I can whittle down a 30 minute stream into a 5-10 minute and show only the important bits.
I love The Sims and look forward to continuing my journey with it here. My sites will always be important so don't worry - this is not a switch.

PLEASE CARL I BEG YOU 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 please create a “no auto change outfit for active sim mod” or create a guide on how to do this🙏🏼🙏🏼 PLEEEASE I will literally pay for this, please 😭🙏🏼🙏🏼
Update ur f^cking cheats with fears. No one has them correct
I don't know if you ever got an answer to this in the last 4 years, but I found a line of code while browsing the XMLs: <T n="buff_type">129126<!--Buff: buff_Suppress_Emotion_Idle--></T>. Maybe it would be more efficient to give all sims a permanent buff_Suppress_Emotion_Idle buff in some high-order file rather than editing the odds of the ide animation?
Plopsy or whatever called sells is amazing to sell on. I sell paintings for up to 30k. I sell everything on it. Inckuding flowers
If you're watching this in the future, like me, dont sell the paintings, list them on plopsy instead. Thank me later
Thank goodness. I was starting to hate Sims 4 seasons. I play a lot of eccentric games including medieval and sci-fi games and its hard enough making or downloading enough sims to make the world feel realistic but then the damn seasons have to make it so the sims are always wearing some ugly winter or summer outfit that completely breaks the immersion. Seasons had become the Sims 4 equivalent of the dreaded Sims 3 celebrity feature for me.
You are a life saver ❤
The problem with this pack looks like the same with The Sims 3 Ghost Hunter career: Everything gets repetitive and boring.
You can't make any house you want haunted??? What a RIP OFF!!
I don't like the Sims4 art style, and even after 10 years the game is still lacking something. There is nothing to do on holiday, pets are not controllable, and, if you have a big family, it's hard to get them all ready to go out, and I hate leaving them unsupervised home alone. The only good thing is that I got Jarvis Cocker from the gallery and he is a delightful Sim (the real JC is my avatar pic here). I'm still playing Sims3. There's still so much I haven't done in it. I want to continue to play it forever.
Sending you all the good energy and I am sorry for your loss ❤ This is my SINGLE MOST FAVORITE mod! Thank you for making it! I also peeped your retail reloaded mod so I can't wait to own businesses in my game again ❤
Why this doesn't work on my game? :(
I love the idea but it doesn't seem to like custom menus for some reason. It removes the mains and desserts option. o x o I had checked the options... Great work still!
I’m so sorry for your loss! Grieving and being in physical pain takes a toll. It’s OK to take time and only do what you feel you are up to.
I find it truly honorable and respectable that you waited until the end to drop that dedication to your friend Pam. I know this was years ago but people still experience loss or are coping. That sentiment definitely hit me and I was not expecting it.
I'm sorry to to hear about your Mother and your shoulder Carl. I hope things are getting better, thank you for giving us an update <3
Glad i found somone normal 😆
This pack is so stressful to have a successful wedding
I'm glad you're back. I feel the pain in your voice, I had lost both of my parents by the age 31. Each beloved loved one's passing was completely different and, in turn, made me different. I'll be sending positive and supportive vibes/prayers your way. Take breaks when needed and find someone to talk too, don't let the pain win, conquer it, work through it and whatever you do IS enough and remember you're doing the best you can; you've got this!! Sul Sul
you have such wonderful energy, Carl! lovely finding you, you're like the secret helper we all need <3
Changing the GB RAM that Sims 3 is allowed to use was the biggest life changer for me because of my slow PC. It went from loading in 10+ minutes lagging and crashing immediately to loading in 3 minutes running smoothly with 12+ hours of gameplay 🙃
The Sims 2 was the best game. I wish they could re-release that just with later games open world and better customization
Is there a way to change the game time format? I don't like 24 hours
1:30 two kits just came out at the exact same time like last week
The skills cheat won't work for me
Charisma is so overpowered. Combine it with the Incredibly Friendly reward trait and one Enchanting Introduction gets an instand friendship. You can ask for two loans, then join their household, split from household and take money. Rins and repeat with other families. I'm doing thid in the Making Money scenario.
Miss you,
I cant find the wood working bench 😕 I've been searching for hours
I had the audacity to look for another mod similar to this one. how dare I. there is no mod, in my opinion, that even comes close to what and how this mod does its thing.
the GOAT
The thumbnail of this video is a lie
Back in Sims 1/2/3 era PCs were much more popular and accessable than laptops. When Sims4 came out most had laptops, that's why they turned Sims into a mobile-like game so almost anyone can run it and generate as many sales as possible.
That’s why mermaids are always skinny and low and body fat because they swim a lot. This makes so much sense they swim a lot so their body fat goes down but they don’t have a lot of muscle because they don’t do anything for their muscle. I love how much thought the Siam put into the waste system that’s really realistic in my opinion.
Does anyone know if this mod is compatible with the latest patch released 28th of may?
Yep. I wouldn't let it languish
@@CarlsSimGuides Great, thanks!
Wow this is like the Refresh Dine Out I always wanted.
+3 happy? Ah, I think that has been patched since then. +2 is all I get no matter how expensive my decorations. I'll add the extra +1 with a fireplace then, and maybe an insence.
I've sold paintings as high as 30k on plopsy.
How can i het a sketchpad?????
I'm almost insulted they re-used the animations for beekeeping for interacting with the flies.
Basically all of my sims hate Fruit Cake all my sims from 2019-now
Maxis needs to hire modders, because i bet a million bucks, the game would run godly. just looking at all those files, I can see modders fixing it to perfection
Thank you so much for this! I know it's been a long time since this was posted but say I wanted to do one on trait idles.. So multiple different ones, Can I group them together and is that more complicated?
Never tried bathtub when on fire
I enjoyed this
I'm disappointed because Sims 2 seemed to have done more with magic and the magic realm than this one.
Thank you CARL!!!!! My condolences to you and I just want you to know that we appreciate and love your work❤❤❤❤❤💘💘💘💘
I just started playing this game and was super lost. This guy although being 4 years old was super helpful and was one of the best guides I could find on the internet. Thank you for the amazing video.

and they conflict with each other too
I send you gratitude for the work you do and condolences for the loss of your Mother. My Mom died in 2001. I was 27 and she was 59. The first 10 years after her death I used alcohol to try to cope with the loss. That didn't work out well. I spent the next 10 years bouncing around the mental health world, spending a fortune on therapy, psychiatrists, pills, programs, and books.... What I have learned is that the old adage is true, that time is the best healer of wounds. Actually, it doesn't so much heal wounds; it just allows them to fade away some. I also think the therapy helps, but in my opinion, the magic to therapy is just having that hour where you can speak out loud your thoughts and feelings. So if you feel terrible, if you feel apathetic, if you feel angry, trust me, we can live without a Sims mod, but we can't live without you. If you ever need an ear to listen, please reach out. I will share with you a quote from C.S. Lewis; on speaking on gried after the death of his wife, he wrote... “Her absence is like the sky, spread over everything." I love that quote so much. It really illustrates loss and grief, but in such a beautifully poetic way. Much Love, Nicole
Thank you for the video. I'm new to mods and I love sams work!
