The pool bar trick is... tricky! Don’t forget to place a pool ladder (like Satch did 😆)! You have to lower your platform a specific number of times and then raise your basement a specific number of times for it to be accessible from both sides and, you need TWO bars - which you overlap (bc that’s the only way they can be accessed from both sides).

I think Satch forgot the second bar but, not his fault: I don’t think the tiktok he had even shows that part. So, his sim couldn’t get in the pool at all and then she couldn’t reach the inside of the bar - bc the two bars create an illusion of just one.

Instructions:
Draw your platform one square away from the edge of the pool
Lower your platform 5 times and place the first bar by sliding it through the platform into the pool - just barely until the whole front of the bar and counter area is in the pool. Don’t push it fully, the “arms” on the bar shouldn’t be in the pool. The two sides that stick out (“arms”) will probably be glitching slightly through the ground, but no worries - that’s perfect and we will cover that up.
After you placed the first bar (with stools already on it - important bc you can’t do that later) Delete the platform, and draw a basement (from the ground level using the basement tool). Draw the basement directly beside the pool, without leaving a square in between this time.
Now, click on it and click the yellow outline to delete the ceiling.
Now, raise your basement 8 times (if you lowered the platform 5 times).
You’ll be able to see the basement is the right height bc the bottom of the bar will be exactly level with the floor. Place your second bar, aligning it with the first bar. You don’t need to push it all the way through (in fact you shouldn’t be able to) and you DON’T want to. You have two bars so it will be accessible from both sides.
This inside (2nd) bar is for your bartender to make drinks and the other (1st) bar is for sims to drink at, but you align them so it looks like one bar - just a bit wider.
You can place the white stone object from spa day so it looks like the stools are sitting on something, but you may need to place anything beneath the stools before you place the bar. That might take a bit of time and adjustment. I just use round stools that look better and the floating thing doesn’t look so noticeable or weird. You can also use the square stone object from Spa Day to create steps for your pool (sims can’t actually use them, but just for aesthetics).

Oh, and you can place regular stairs to the “basement” seating area, if you don’t want to bother with platform steps. Your sims should be able to serve drinks from one side and swim right up to the bar and sit on a stool on the other side. I use base game “money maker” bars for this, with base game stools just because they’re not too big, the height is perfect and they come in lots of colors. Also, that way everyone can download it and it will be playable in their game.

This is a more advanced build trick, so it’s easy to understand if this is too much hassle or too complicated. I’m thinking of making this as a “room” to put on the gallery, by itself so people can easily add a pool bar to their game. You would just need to delete the walls around it when you download it... (or not and then you’d have a pool of death 💀)

With the built in fridge hack, u can also use the largest cabinet backwards. You do have to get rid of walls first, so no snapping and move objects on. But it looks more sleek.

I use blueprints for my builds all the time. To convert sizes from the blueprints to the game the conversion is approx 3 feet to each build mode square! It is easy to use the blueprints after that. 😊

Just a warning - the tub hack looks great, but you’ll probably have issues bathing toddlers and/or dogs. They use a different entrance tile from the adults. 🤦🏼‍♀️

You are changing my life as a builder and I love you for it. Centering the sink has been something I have wanted FOREVER.

Fun thing about the remove ceiling thing, in case you don’t know: but if you put a light, or a window on the second story floor, remove the ceiling/floor, the lighting will hit the first floor allowing you to build functional vaulted ceiling’s for your home.

I love how he just jumps into the video without any intro because every time I’m watching YouTube videos the YouTubers explain like 3 mins what I’m about to Watch but b*tch I clicked on the video title I damn well know what this video is about. So yea I really appreciate this

I've used that stairs thing since the game came out in my home builds, to put the basement stairs directly under the stairs to the upstairs floor. I've wanted it since TS3, since the house I lived in IRL had stairs like that. One of the first things I did when TS4 came out was build my house with the stacked stairs. I also do the remove ceiling on basements to make walk out basements all the time. Or you can make little 'rooms' around a basement, put windows in the basement wall, and then remove the ceiling of the little basement rooms to get natural light in a basement.

I also use tons of floorplan sites for builds. I get tons of spam because everyone thinks I'm house shopping.

[emryspaperart]

regarding the stacked stairs: i don't know if this has been said in the comments already but if you choose a stair that has a wall under it, the sledgehammer gets rid of that under stair wall. this gives you a lot more options for stacked stairs!! (and if you want the under stair wall back, i believe just applying wallpaper over the space will rebuild it?) also, attic or basements, and 3 storey townhouses are good builds to use those stacked stairs in for residential use.

also, if you drew a fence room and cover the top stair block too, this will create a new 'room' which allows you to delete the floor and have more control over how your stairwells and banisters look, instead of being restricted to only the tiles the stairs automatically cutout.

So now your sims can put their dirty plates on the bathtub 😅

[lucapeyrefitte]

You can use any blueprint website and it does help when you don’t know what to build, it’s honestly helpful in and of the sims games from 2-4

[mooncookier]

pls it's the sincere apologies followed by the brutal laughter for me💀💀

[Miluielle]

Thanks for the ctrl Also I remove ceilings all the time when I'm decorating as it gives more light - provided I haven't put a roof on.

[conlon]

1:12 Oh my goodness that looks so cool haha! Can you put mirrors in doors and stuff? It looks so cool how she warps though the mirror!

[patrickcreates]

In the pool bar hack, it looked liked there was a platform under the chairs in the final shot… I wonder how they did that? 🤔

[flaco]

omg the ctrl click stairs is 11/10. Now I have to go through and see what other ctrl or alt functions there are built in.

[Galvamel]

Here's one I love. Have a visiting sim buy and drop all the rugs in your house so that they don't move when you drag the cursor to move around.

[annakaro]

I made the last one work. It didn't work at first, but then I raised the bar a bit and it worked. It looks so cool!

[marieduran]

With the bar hack, I think you lowered the bar too low or the chairs are in the pool wall, and that is why it isn't working.
I will still try it in a future build.

[Ice.muffin]

Ok but why do I literally love your vibe SO much!! You are seriously so cool, love your honesty!
