I listed out things that would've been helpful had I know them two days ago. None of this is very in-depth and leaves plenty to be discovered. Here's the link:

Island Living Guides

Hey all. I've been at it for 2 days now, time to make a post listing out what I've done so far. Not working on videos yet. It's better to do text first s...

Video Version (Island Living)

Here's the video version of the guide. A couple of cuts I'm not happy with in there but I managed to salvage it. Tough one to edit, due to how fast EA cuts things in their trailers and the need to mix in footage from the Q&A session. That is n...

The Sims 4 Island Living Expansion Details

Hi guys and gals, I thank you for actually sticking around after the month rolled over. I see more people doing that and it really encourages me. Today I covered the new livestream but i've not yet finished my video form of the guide. Island Livin...

A Trip Down Memory Lane: History of The Sims 4 Patches and Game Improvements

Hi everyone! I had an idea last week, but it took a while to come together because it required me to look up all the patches since launch. Thankfully, I found a list which helped me look through and compile info, then get footage and summarize eve...

Woodworking

It's really random, but how about today we do Woodworking? I had fun making it, and appreciate your support more than ever at times like this. The community is energized again due to TS4 being free and it's exciting and gives me a lot of hope the ...

The Sims 4 Beginner's Guide Video

Since The Sims 4 is free to download and keep over the next week if you grab it, I decided to attempt a beginner's guide.  The community is swelling overnight so there are a lot of new players out there. There's so much to the game, but I foc...

Mod Review Series and Site Improvements

I've spent the past couple weeks moving to https and cloudflare so it's slowed down my content creation. I did get out some newbie articles on the site, but a lot of time was spent diagnosing speed issues on the guides. I found a few things and tr...

Alien Abductions and Male Pregnancy (Alien Babies!)

I noticed there were hardly aliens any more, so investigated this subject to figure out the best ways to trigger abductions in a game with all the packs installed. Turns out there are still only a few ways, but they are reliable and using the meth...

Fit/Fat Guide Now Available in Text Form

Hi there. I got around to writing out a text version of my fitness/fatness video and published the calorie information I'd promised, along with the hunger regen from each type of meal. It's not ALL recipes but it does cover the ones unlocked via c...

Spring in The Sims 4 Seasons: Making an Easter Holiday

I made this guide to inform people on how to create custom holidays with an example of making an Easter-themed holiday for The Sims 4 Seasons. Covers the spring time and some activities that can be enjoyed during that season.

Let me know wha...

Fashion Trends: The Sims 4 Style Influencer Career

Hi all,

I confess I didn't do very well covering the Style Influencer career that came in the November patch, just too much going on.. .but I went back to it today and improved the page while also publishing this video on the topic. It has j...

Story Summary (StrangerVille)

Hi all. Today I did a quick review of the StrangerVille story, as there are lines you can miss that explain what's happened in the town's past. If you have not yet played the pack, you can expect this to completely ruin the story for you so don't ...

(Spoilers) Sims 4 StrangerVille Mystery Part 1

Here's my first video guide for StrangerVille. I don't go too in depth on story but it's inevitable you learn things while watching this as it is a walkthrough. Thanks as always for your support. This one is very weird to cover because I'm kind of...

StrangerVille Town Guide

I made a guide to the places you'll need to visit while uncovering the mystery of StrangerVille, with a few tips and only very minor spoilers:

The Sims 4: StrangerVille Guides Coming Soon

I'm working on Strangerville coverage tonight, and it's been fun. I thought I'd make you all aware we have about 5 videos planned over the next two weeks that will cover everything, including the new goal to investigate the town, the new military ...

Fame Quirks Guide

Hi everyone. I know that fame quirks can be super annoying, so maybe we can tailor our Sim's behavior while a slot is open to ensure we get one we want. Knowing the triggers of the various quirks can help you to avoid them, so I've listed them all ou...

HI Everyone!

I just now put out my 2nd actual guide to Get Famous in video format, with 6 pages done for the site. Just thought I'd pop up here this time. I don't like to spam you but I suppose Patreon might pick up more steam if I posted more often. This side of...

Getting to Woohoo and Try for Baby

This video was fun to make. I wanted to hear from you all how you think the audio quality is coming along. I think loudness was a big issue for people on mobile, as it was just too quiet. I think we are at a level equal to other channels now, which i...

The Sims 4 Gallery Patch Features

Hi everyone. If you missed the livestream, I can save you some time by showing you the new major features of the gallery update that came out today. I love the changes overall. It's not what I was expecting (direct gameplay) but I cannot complain. Th...

Try for Baby with Father Winter!

Hi guys. I have just uploaded a fun little challenge I made for myself. Have a baby with Father Winter, starting in Winter and only have 3 days to prep. I think it's the best shot video I've made in terms of the footage, and my voice quality improves...

Cheats (New Mic)

So I want to put this one out there even though I know most of you already know how to cheat and all that. The point of my sharing this is, you should be able to hear a massive difference in audio quality in terms of.. depth.  From this point fo...

Flower Shop with GTW Retail and Seasons

Hi guys and gals. This one is an idea I had brewing that I thought would be fun and a great opportunity to share loads of mechanics tips. This video walks you through every aspect of starting a flower shop, starting with traits I personally chose (to...

Beekeeping Guide

This is only video #3, so I'm still learning all of this. While I've yet to convert my notes to text, I will be making a beekeeping page on the guide. This newest release is me taking all the feedback you have provided and trying to make my videos hi...

First Video

So, as Sims 4 has not provided me nearly as many writing opportunities as its predecessor, I've kicked around the idea of doing videos for a while now. I took a brief break from writing for Seasons to experiment with the software and start gathering ...

Updates Throughout

I've felt very motivated to get the guide where it should be, after having failed to do so last year. So far I've got the following updated for seasons:

Gardening Plant List:  2018-06-26 05:16:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Broken Cheats

You all probably already know this, but the skill and career cheats are broken. Cheats are very helpful for zipping through prerequisites for note-taking and avoiding repetitive tasks when guide-writing. So yeah, they slowed me down a lot. I've relea...

Seasons Updates

I'll be all over Seasons this evening, but I've been quietly updating areas of the guide. Over the next months getting everything from all game packs and expansions incorporated into all the major areas is my primary goal, but of course covering enti...
