Okay but the screaming geckos is an iconic name
I would go there irl
sounds like a great band name!
*it is tho* 😳
It reminds me of Total Drama Island!
amen
I can't believe how close to 2M subs you are. I remember when we were both highschoolers and you would vent about "Susan", and you shared about your Dad's recovery, and your anxiety about graduating. You've come such a long way and I'm so happy for you Kayla ❤
Isn't that crazy?!🥹 That Susan tea was HOOOTT! I remember I was looking forward to hearing about her day at school😂 Almost at 2Mil subscribers and getting MARRIED to getting her own HOUSE.. she's came such a long way, truly an ICON❤
@@princesslaisha2615 I'm sorry I'm a relatively new subscriber, who's Susan? What's the tea??
@Pietro-hv4sy Susan was, I believe her teacher.. I might be wrong tho..! The tea was usually her day at school and how it went😂
@@princesslaisha2615either her teacher or a peer who was lowkey mean! it’s been a minute it’s hard to remember but goodness it was tea!
Susan was a fellow student and rather awful from what I recall
Snap in her flower cone is so cute! Best wishes to her and you on a speedy recovery. ❤
The "outdoor lighting" indoors that irked kayla is the vibe for more traditional homes/ converted traditional homes in southeast asia... so I kinda get why it looks like that initially. 😅 but yes, in normal sims 4 gameplay I dont like that too.
She's mentioned it before about how she loves the idea of doing things like that, but the lighting bug is just annoying. While it is a style in southeast Asia, lighting and shadow bugs definitely are not the style. lol The best you could do here is put in big arches as doors instead which ruins that idea of just like a whole wall being open.
It's not the style that irks her, just the lighting bug
"don't worry guys, it's not a real sun flower" thank gosh, you had me worried there.
omg simsie you should build a hotdog mansion for stanley! like a red yellow and brown colour scheme!
YES
Love how there’s a subcommunity in Kayla’s comments of just people asking for a Weenie Estate build😂
This is such a good idea omggg
Yaassss
@@nickboon1235 stanley deserves it
That stupid house in Glimmerbrook with the missing door at the back of it drives me crazy every single time I look at it but I always just chalked it up to not enough time to finish it or EA was just trying to troll people knowing it would drive a lot of people crazy LOL Great build once again Kayla and hope sweet little Snap is doing ok!
I'm definitely not well-versed in this (as I live in Canada) but homes in a lot of tropical climates tend to be more open than this to allow for more air to circulate, it's a gorgeous build but the original seems a bit more true to life (if annoying for gameplay) Edit: before anyone says anything I'm aware Kayla lives in florida but florida is not as hot as SE Asia (which is the inspiration for Tomarang) and most American homes also tend to have AC which is less common in SE Asia from what I know
She's mentioned before about wanting to be able to do things like that in builds, like just having entire open walls, but the lighting bug also causes issues with shadows and it just looks terrible. I'd rather the style be more fitting for the game than being so true to life, which is what she aimed for here really.
@@Eventide215 Yeah and I do feel that she did a decent job of balancing both how realistic it feels and also how it functions in gameplay! I feel like both the original and the updated build are good, just in different ways. Sorry if my original comment wasn't really clear on my opinion!
the original ea build looks cute when you look at it first but when you look at it for longer you see everything thats ‘wrong’ 😅
so close to 2 mil kayla!! i’ve been watching you for so long and i can’t believe how far you’ve come!💞
I made it a rec-centre in my save! It fits right in with the community vibes of the neighborhood
ooo that's smart, I might do that too 🤔
the flower cone is so cute!!! Wishing u and snap all the best!!!!!!!!!!!!
3:04 aww Snappy 🥺🥺🥺🥺 Sending you and your fur babies love, Kayla. I’m not a praying girl but I’m praying for Snap’s quick recovery 🤞🏼 💓💓💓
I love that Snap is straightup a sunflower
Poor Snap just wants to be free but she is lucky she has Kayla who is being a wonderful mom
Honestly think that your version did a good job of improving the build with the original vibe intact somewhat!
Wishing Snap the sunflower cat a speedy recovery. ❤
Snap makes her flower cone look so cute, hope she feels better soon
Hey simsie don't put yourself down so much for this build I think it looks nice and the reason you mightve been struggling so much is because of the different culture the builds are suppose to represent. So don't out yourself down just have fun!
I hope that snap has a good recovery, I watch you just to see your cats on the cat cam.😊
Kayla don't be so hard on yourself, you did an amazing job as usual and if you don't feel like it's good maybe it's because you're going through something completely hard. Having your pet sick is the worst, believe me I know (my cat had diabetes and cancer) , the fact that you're posting despite of this is amazing. Sending you lots of love
the way that i looked for and located snap in the chair before you even introduced her. i was like is the baby doing okay?? yes i see her. okay good.
I just got some bad news, thanks for making silly little videos even when your own life is difficult, you’re a big help to me today and I’m thankful for your content ❤
Hi, I know I'm an internet stranger, but I also go to Simsie videos for comfort. Sending good vibes and hopes for a better tomorrow 💜
Hi friend! Hopefully, the news you got are something that just temporary affect anything. Just remember, whatever happened should not throw off your whole life. Times may be hard but there is always light at the end of a tunnel. There will be better days, even if it doesn't look or feel like it at the moment. I wish you the best and send you all the virtual hugs you want and deserve. Much love💜
Snaps flower is SO CUTEEEE, I hope she has a quick recovery!
I'm glad your cat is getting better. She looks adorable wearing that flower "cone".
I'm so glad snaps okay, wishing her a speedy recovery!!!
Lbr rental feature was not ready even when it was released 🙈 i also really dislike how some stairs, if u like turn them any way, it shows through a wall.
snappy looks so cute in her little sunflower cone 🥺💕 i'm glad her surgery went well & i hope she makes a speedy recovery!!
This may seem kinda random but in many cities in South Asia (I'm from India so that's mostly what I mean) where we have the low toilets there's usually also a western one for accessibility reasons as you can't really make a wheelchair accessible bathroom with the traditional ones, so it would be cool if you were building more with this style to do that too! Great build as always!
Lilsimsies top is so cute omg
I wish snap a speedy and healthy recovery ❤
Give Snappy lots of love from us! Hope she gets to feeling better soon, and I hope you're making a priority of taking care of yourself!
EA rlly needs to learn how to play their own game
this renovated version looks lovely 💞 wishing snap a swift recovery!! please take all the time you need :)
wishing snap a speedy recovery 💗 she's so cute :))
glad snap is feeling a bit better. wishing her a speedy recovery!!
i like this bc i’ve been playing with a tomorangan family who’s mom is an entertainer and now she’ll have a new and improved screaming gecko to perform at. but i will have to place a microphone 🥹
You should have a cat cam pointed at that chair for the next video! Then we can see Snap with her little flower cone while we watch your videos. Idk about everyone else, but I LOVE seeing the animals on camera
Hey simsie i have an idea for a challenge: every room is a different colour filter but you can only use items that are mostly another colour for example you spinn red and there is a blue couch with red pillows under that filter u can use it but u can’t use a red couch! Idk if this even makes sense e isn’t first language

my cat went thru major surgery two years ago and i was a horrible wreck. you are being so calm and doing great work in such a hard time! we love you and snap!!!
Watching Kayla go through all the stages of grief renovating this build. 😅 As always, came out looking amazing.
Aw I’m so glad snaps surgery went okay🎉she looks BEAUTIFUL in her sunflower cone!! We love the cats Kayla❤❤
Poor Snap, I hope she feels better soon 😔
I know it's annoying for Sims 4 gameplay but it's pretty accurate for Southeast Asian buildings 😂 it's good for ventilation
kayla babe you're too hard on yourslef!!! i love this reno so much!! im absolutley putting this in my saves! sending you and snap love
I'm so surprised you didn't put a closet in that little 2x2 room!
4:50 is such a funny moment, literally laughing out loud
i think some things, the shape of the roof, the overhang, and the dim lighting are features of this type of architecture in real life and made more sense with them. this version does look more detailed and lush though! i think for this build it would have been better to get references for real south east asian buildings. (also the fact that the two tables on the bottom floor are at different angles is aaaaa)
Ahhh I can’t believe you’re so close to two million subs!! Congrats and I hope snap has a speedy recovery!!
Hi Simsie! I love your videos and I watch your twitch streams (I’m thenarlygamer). I know you don’t read the comments but I just wanted to say that you inspired me to get the sims and stardew valley. Sending love to Snap ❤😊😁 (this is my mom’s account)
Too many plants doesnt exist. The more plants the better!!! I loveee this build
Simsie: “They aren’t really mean just critical” Sounds just like EA when they said the empty houses “add to the strange” 😂
They easily could've had simmers make lots for this pack. At the very least, non-rental lots would've been an obvious choice. Even for the rental lots, they could've had the simmers make them as normal residential lots and then convert them to rentals later
I really enjoyed this video! I like being taken along for the ride like this, haha. The trust the process vibes are my favorite
i hope ur cat is feeling better 🧡
This is a beautiful build!! I love the colors and the design! You always impress me :) Take as much time as you need for yourself-personal lives can be so stressful! We love you 🩷
I've been going through and redoing all the builds and I've left the stairs to nowhere.... it just feels so appropriate in a magic pack and I highkey love it XD
Good luck snap! ❤ I remember you hitting 500k!
Great job! On the build great job improveing it and keeping the vibe. Get well soon Snap. ❤
I would like to see a video where you rebuild a lounge using only base game and For Rent to replace the Screaming Geckos
For me it was the white upstairs throwing me off. I feel like a different colour would’ve made it all come together but you did a great job!
im sooo glad youve renovated this lot omg
16:02 it’s the Tesco motto!
Glad to see snap doing well 😊 I definitely like the Reno
Snaps flower cone is so cute!!! 💜
Ok but thank god you renovated this bc my sims are currently obsessed with this lot and i am also not a huge fan of it
i actually am lost on what to choose to watch on youtube without your videos
You know, I never thought about it before, but I wonder if the missing elements were for a couple reasons. 1) I wonder if EA had met their build limit on the lot and sacrificed those items for others, but more importantly, 2) I wonder if they left out those items because "celebrities don't poop" so they don't need toilets, and because spellcasters can transportalate, they don't need doors or stairs. Didn't think about that until you said the names of the packs with the missing items, Kayla!
I hope Snap feels better soon! Tbh, I love seeing her again even if it is in unfortunate circumstances, 'cause it has been a while since she made an appearance on the youtube channel since the kittens arrived 🥲 Not that I don't love the kittens as well, but I was missing Snap's cuteness just a bit🧡
Hey Simsie! Loved the revamp! Out of context but: I was thinking on the other heir on your legacy challenge and they could be called Sean S. Tay, so their full name would read like Seance Table and they could be in the paranormal career
Love yur videos so much, hoping the best for Snap and you ❤❤ besitooos
Kayla, don't be insecure! You're a great builder and entertainer 😊 Besides, your cat had cancer, and that's really hard. I'm glad she's OK! ❤
Changing the roof was definitely an improvement 👍 and I too get incredibly stressed over my cats having medical problems, it's completely understandable.
Your builds are always WAY better than EA builds. They should hire you to redo their entire original builds that happened before they started working with Creators. You and other builders of course cause that is a lot of work. So happy Snap is slowly recovering. It'll take time but the more time passes, the more she heals. Those soft cones are so much better than the original hard plastic ones. The Sunflower one on Snap is actually cute but I'm sure she doesn't think so. lol It's hard to see your fur babies sick but Snap is lucky to have you care for her. Snap is so pretty. Hi Snap. Hi also to Shrimp and Sunny.
You can add/remove frieze pieces one by one if you use a keyboard. I had to do this for a rebuild on Ps4 and it looked amazing and I was able to save some rooms I edited that were breaking (EA community lot ofc haha)
You made it so much better ❤️
You're always so critical of yourself but create such beautiful builds
I'm so glad to be here before 2M, love you kayla ❤
Simsie this entire video: everybody’s so creative
Your vid made my dayy ❤❤
Hope Snap is resting well, wishing her all the best 💛🙏🏼
kayla it looks amazing what are you talking about!! you're too hard on yourself, it looks fab! sending love to you and snap as always, so so much love x
I'm actually renovating this build as well atm!
I really like this version !!!
Hope the old lady is healing okay 💕
This version is so much better and looks really good!!
Gecko is such a funny word 😂
I actually think this is really good! If I want my Sims to come here I'll definitely download it so they can have the improved version!
We love Snap the sunflower :)
PLEASE make Stanley a mansion, he deserves a big and fancy hot dog house sooo bad! 🙏
we love you! don’t feel bad about taking some time off when your cats need attention 💖
Snap is the most beautiful sunflower!❤
Love your vids
Im glad snapper came out of surgery okay 💕
Simsie sounded so polite yet annoyed by saying "Ok, well that's interesting...and different of them to do...is there a reason you did that?" 😆
Guys I am so attached to my Not So Berry sims that I’m seriously considering buying Moschino Stuff for full price just to take more family photos. Somebody *PLEASE* talk me out of it!
Anadius 👀
The CAS isn’t really usable but I do use the furniture more often than I’d care to admit😭 I bought it for the tripod, literally only used it once and never again. It works fine, no problems my end. Maybe consider another pack to add to your collection if the *only* selling points for Moschino are the poses and the cameras
You just have to take that EA L my friend.
There are two things I can tell you: there WILL be a sale. They will probably screw up something soon and will either give us free pack or some sale, wait few weeks 😂 And second thing, your sims would probably screw up the photos, they have unnatural talent for this thing 😂 So there's no point spending full price on it, like on any pack, not at this price. And third thing, as someone already said - Anadius.
Use mods instead!! Taking pics is SUCH a nightmare - I bought the pack for the windows and never use the camera because the sims won’t listen to you. DONT BUY IT!! ❤
This build is so specific that is looks like they were trying to recreate real place in the sims
glad kittys ok
It looks great!!
