I will say I think your best April fools joke is when you were playing the “Friends” LP and you did an episode in the sims 3 and pretended like it was the sims 4 and nothing was wrong and I think about that every April fools day.
OMG YES, SAME
@@IvyTheIntrovert I think about copying it all the time
@@moomoomackandcheese3405 same lol, that was so iconic
What is the name of that video?
@@ricksgameplay134 uh I forgot
the fact we have a colour wheel for horses in sims 4 but not for hair drives me insane
The horse girls are many, the hair girls are few
What about the horse AND hair girlies
@@Zombiez444literally opposite
Right omg I don’t have horses but I have werewolves and you can use the wheel and draw on them too like the horses lolll but not on regular sims 😭
I thought when cats and dogs came out "surely this means they'll be able to retroactively add a colour wheel for sims now".... but alas
Something I really loved about sims 3 is that townies would autonomously change furniture placement and add their own things! It was so fun to play the interior design career and then see that they had “modified” things a bit! I should really revisit the game
wait, really?? omg i have thousands of hours in ts3 and i never noticed this 🤯 that’s such a good little detail!
fr??? I've never noticed this :0
I remember putting a lot of effort in some renos of “sim friend” and then I’d visit for their party or something and they had changed some furniture. Devastating! They told me they loved my reno!! Smh/j also I remember making a painter sim and I’d gift other sims the paintings and they’d appear in their homes (not every time though, which really made it feel like some sims liked them and others didn’t)
Just wanted to say the glitch isn’t a sign it will crash. If you click F1/F2 it will automatically go to live mode or buy mode and it fixes the issue 😅 For future sims builds in TS3 (Coming from both a builder and a gameplay girlie)
im pretty sure she was switching between live and build mode when it crashed
@@kaydenk4111yes but they say to use the F1/F2 button (instead of clicking the actual button on screen like Simsie does here).
It can also crash especially once it just doesnt fully load build mode and is inherently stuck there IE none of the buy mode objects actually show up
you should recreate this house in the sims 4! would love to see how similar or different it would look 😊
Yes! Totally!
100%!
The Sims 3 foundation is like its own 'make no mistakes' challenge lol
the color wheel was ON TOP omg
I don’t even care about the building drawbacks, there’s plenty of cool builds to download online for the game, the gameplay is just SO good in the sims 3 I miss it
Yes sims 3 all the way! I love building on it you get so many options that you don’t get in the sims 4!
I still play it. I still haven't switched to S4 because it still seems so much _less_ compared to S2 & 3~ I'm a "palyer" more than a "builder' (because, yeah, Kayla's right about the S3 building tools. Yoiks. But it was better (esp roofs) than S2 :D ].
I visited a few secondhand games stores this weekend and got the Double Deluxe edition of the sims 2 and 3 more expansions on CD for less than $15, I got them to work and I'm having a blast playing it for the first time :))
Why is this me I got the Sims 2 Holiday edition and Sims 2 late night for less than 5 dollars total at a 2nd hand bookstore😂
Have fun!!!!!
Don't feel pressured to upload every day when your cat is ill. Take your time and care for your cat, it is understandable.
I love create a style so much. If I want to make every surface of a room and every piece of furniture in that room cow print, I can. And I think that's magical
I love that even wth the colour weel she still made a blue suburban 😭
That wheel painting is something your sim can paint in the sims 4!! I can't remember which type of painting, but it's a large canvas with a high painting level. The fact that they used to try to add hints to the sims 3 in the sims 4 at their early stages was so nice! I just wish they'd do that from time to time... instead of exploiting us all the time 😭
Hi Kayla, if it helps, my cat had a cancer scare at 15 and got a tumor removed, and he just celebrated his 20th birthday and is a perfectly healthy boy :) Keeping you and Snap in my thoughts!
sims 3 my beloved ❤ I play with all the packs, lots of cc and mods, and have basically no issues except the rare crash maybe once a month 🤔 love not having loading screens and being able to customize exactly how long my sims spend in each life stage
Hey guys for who didn't know already, the blooming rooms kit is gonna be free in a few weeks, there is not a date i think but don buy it yet save your money💚🎮
Oooohhh! I haven't been buying kits because I think they're a little overpriced, but I'll happily take a free kit.
DAMN thats one of the only kits i have bought 😔 but im glad they're starting to make some of the small packs free even for just a little while
AND backyard stuff is free right now!
It's only free for pc players 😔
I think she should remake this build in the sims 4! Genuinely a really pretty one!
You can turn off the ads in game! Just go in the menu options :)
There were ads in TS3!?
That butterfly wallpaper in purple was in so many of my girls' bedrooms.
You shouldn't worry about uploading while worrying about Snap! We'll find old videos of yours to watch while Snappy recovers
i think it's obvious that we want MORE sims 3 content 🙈🙈
Yes yes yes!!
Love TS3!!
Sims 3 build mode is definitely worse than Sims 4 in many ways, but the personality and gameplay of live mode was so much better. There's trade offs between both games but honestly I think Sims 3 is better even though you need mods to have it run well. Even the UI of Sims 3 is better in my opinion. Much more minimalistic and not so in your face bright white as well.
So glad to see a sims 3 video! Currently playing it, but it's so hard to build in! Sometimes we take Sims 4 building for granted
You're kidding! it's WAY easier. Sims 4 is impossible with it's weird room tool.
Sims 3 building is cursed
@@penguinqueen01 skill issue
@@TimothyRobert93 building rooms isnt but designing houses is you'd have to think before hand esepcially once you use the usual build tools like constraint floor height and place friezes cheats on
@@lesslighter I would usually draw up a floor plan before hand, so that wasn't really an issue for me.
The amount of time this games has crashed on me in so crazy. I literally cry every time it crashes and stop playing because I get mad.
Sometimes I get the sudden nostalgic urge to play the sims 3, and then i remember how long the loading screens are and how much lag there is.
For any builders who want to go back to S3, I have found that the easiest way to avoid the "Aw crap, I should have that somewhere else on the lot and now I can't move the building" is to use the floor barriers to plan the first floor's floorplan before building. :) You can also turn off the in-store purchase "suggestions" in the settings and that reduces the lag a _lot._ [Lag is always EA-caused, usually their shoddy monetisation policies]. There are also a swag of things you can do to to stop that laggy crash from happening. Nraas mods FTW but there is also a really good one that stops the cc build/buy lag a _lot._ "ld smoothpatch" [with a version for master controller if you have nraas mods]
Good luck Snap❤ best wishes and good health to your baby💖
I started playing Sims 3 too. I loved it because you can create your own lots, and place items in the world you want, and the terrain manipulation is a lot easier to use. Although roofing (never my forte) was blocky. I never liked to roof. They made the sounds like that to make it sound realistic, like under construction. And as for me, my favorite plant was the heather. I used that stuff everywhere! I also would repaint the pool and then change the pattern on the wallpaper to make it look funky. I miss having those curved walls for pools, I could make a completely circular pool. And those spiral stairs would work great with curved walls if the Sims 4 has it--I hope! It would be the only saving grace to curved walls in the Sims 4.
I SRSLY THOUGHT THE TITLE WAS “building in the sims 4 with the color wheel” MY HEART DROPPED
The sims 3 was also my first game when I was like 4 so being like basically a toddler I barely knew what I was doing and I did not know that buildmode was a thing. I made my sims have a kid, aged the kid until it was a child, got bored, and made a new save. My sims suffered 5 years of me not knowing what a buildmode was until I hopped my little self over to the sims 4. This video is very fun for me. (P.s. goodluck with snappy tmr, we will see you when the danger period is all over
I always get surprised at people who's sims 3 don't run smoothly even with mods I only run into lag and crashes if I live on a houseboat
yeah exactly and i dont even have a nice computer lol i play on my notebook and never had issues with it crashing
I hope Snap’s surgery goes well, praying for her recovery 🙏🏼🤍
i NEED the cowboy wallpaper in sims 4. thats so good for kids rooms. imagine it with horse ranch stuff
8:37 well I wouldn’t be suprised if they did that cuz they put in an in game shop button now. Seriously sims 4 pretends to not be as bad as the sims 3 when it still is lol
I actually love the aesthetic of the sims 3. I forgot how much I liked the trees/plants until you placed them and I'm drooling over the texture, ugh I miss it!
You can alt place furniture/decor in the sims 3! You hold down the "alt" key while moving it :)
Yeah I think Kayla forgot about testingcheatsenabled true
Is what she did for the trash can different? Looked like she alt-placed that, is it different for wall stuff? 😂
i watched an episode of QTCinderella’s podcast Wine About It and she mentioned that she would like to be friends with you! i think that would be an amazing collab!
Omg. Which episode???
@@emilystich23the episode with lilypichu ! :)
i love the sims 3. please MORE SIMS 3!💗
I never did builds in Sims 3, just decorating, but the memories..! I'd forgotten those nice marble countertops💝
dear god I don't miss the sims 3 building, or the awful black shadows. You're brave simsie, great build!
"I was thinking about making it kind of a pretty....light blue color" We are ALL. SHOCKED.
Good luck, Snap! My kitty & I will be thinking of you!
Simsie had the whole color wheel & still painted the house blue! /j So fun to experience some Sim 3 nostalgia!!
I hope Snap’s surgery goes well! Love your videos! No rush to get back into making videos, we just want you to feel good about everything!❤❤❤
I was mainly in high school and college when I played the sims 3. I don't remember that much of the actually playing details (even though played it days and days and days at a time). I do remember the pain of it constantly crashing. The constant anxiety. It all came back watching the end of this video. It hurrrts.
i’d LOVE for you to make a new series on the sims 3. it would be amazing and really diversify the channel content
GOD I LOVED THE FRIO'S HOUSE
building in the sims 3 takes 10 times longer just bc you can pick the swatch of everything 😭😭
That’s why you save your favourites already with favourite swatches. Actually you can also just save your favourite textures-colours and save a lot of loading time by not switching colour wheel tabs a lot.
Praying for snap!!!!
As much as I miss TS3's color wheel, I completely agree that building was a pain. The game in general tended to crash all the time. It was especially bad when I had Windows 98. The game needed more RAM than Win98 could use, so if you didn't save at least once every SimDay while you were playing, and nearly constantly when you were building, it would crash. It was a little better when I was able to upgrade to Windows 7, as it could better use the RAM the computer had. But it still crashed a lot. (And that wasn't counting what it would do if you didn't have NRAAS Overwatch installed. Supposedly the crashing had something to do with the way cars worked in the game. It was as if all the fake cars in the game would get stuck at the edges of the lot. Over a short period of time, the game would get slower and slower and slower, until it finally crashed. And *that* bug couldn't be fixed by saving the game.) I *loved* TS3. I had so much fun with it. I didn't even play TS4 until Discover University came out. But I can't go back to TS3. It's just too frustrating. Even with all the bugs of TS4, I still find TS3 far more frustrating.
how tf did you run sims 3 on windows 98 LMAO
@@taepyeoon8245 LOL! When TS3 first came out, that's what the majority of players had! Sure, Windows Millennial and Vista had come out, but most of us were trying to avoid them, just as later we avoided Windows 8 if we could. Windows 7 was at least reasonable in comparison to the others. (Except for the RAM usage problem, many of us really missed Win98 when we switched over.) But then, I played SimCity (the original) on Amiga (1000 and then 2000.) Its graphics were far superior to the version for Windows! If only they could have continued to compete!
@@junerussell6972 So funny remembering all these older windows versions. They don't feel that old, but then I remember that we still had dial-up internet back when we had Windows XP... My main Sims experience back then was playing it at my friend's house, and eventually renting the GameCube releases like The Sims 2 Pets. What a time!
@@blaireshoe8738 Yep. Things have really changed over the years (thankfully.) I still remember when the only way we got "updates" for bugs was on disc. That's how I ended up getting hooked on TS1. I was a big SimCity fan. I had gone to the game store to pre-order SimCity4. The sales clerk suggested TS1, which I had avoided (because the commercials showed a lot of Sims hitting each other, and that's a big turn-off for me.) The sales clerk explained that one didn't have to play that way, so I bought it. When SimCity4 came out, it was unplayable because of bugs (and didn't become playable until SimCity4 Rush Hour came out, since you needed that disc to get rid of the bugs.) So, when I would have been playing SC4, I ended up playing TS1 instead and got "hooked" on it! But I don't miss the days when all bug fixes came on the next DLC! I also remember when they first started sending out updates over the internet. That was quite an experience too, since they were far too large to finish downloading in an uncorrupted form if you were on dialup. So, I had to go to a friend's house who had cable internet, download it onto his computer, burn it to a disc, and take it home (hoping it wasn't corrupted. It actually took a few tries, unfortunately.) I don't miss those days either!
It’s Tuesday ❤ sending all my prayers and love to you, Snap and Dan🥰🌟
Best wishes for Snap, hopes everything goes well! ❤
Kayla, using the scalloped roof swatch? Groundbreaking 😂😂 It's my favorite roof too I cannot even blame her
We love you Simsie and thank you for the nostalgia 😂❤️
it had never happened to me ! 😮 Sims 3 was my first love 😂😂😂
great build! been feeling in a sims 3 mood lately, this was nice. althoug... I'm european... and I am severely disturbed by overhead lighting only... feels... wrong... great video!!!
YESSS I want more Sims 3 Builds/Content!!!
in regards to the sims 3 color wheel, you can also use images from your pc and import them as textures
Sending some really good energy to you and Snappy. I love you both and am hoping for the best outcome 🤞❤️
i love watching you build in sims 3
sending so much love to you and snap
ily :) fingers crossed for snap
this was fun! what's weird is i never had problems with it lagging
I played the sims 3 so long ago I don't even think I remember how to play it. This video was incredibly nostalgic for me, thank you Kayla ❤
Whenever I built an attached garage in sims 3, I always had a video tutorial on my tablet next to me! I could never remember how to do it! I hope Snappy's surgery goes well, and the sewer not-so-babies don't forget her! I'm sending you, and your family lots of love, luck, good vibez, and hope. 💜💜🤞🤞
I regularly miss the kid oven. It would be so nice to get them cooking skill like that again.
Maybe you could try to rebuild this in TS4 and upload that build to the sims 4 gallery
STAY LILSIMSIE FAN AHHHH
was binge watching your videos and by the time i finished the last one this one was uploaded!! i hope snap is doing okay
yesterday I came back to the sims 3 and I’m crazy downloading a lot of Cc and things before starting my journey 😍
When I was a kid playing TS3 I literally never used the foundation cause it made me mad if I had to start over 😂😂
YES YES AND YES. SIMS 3 CONTENT!!!? i love you
I hope Snaps surgery goes well🩷🙏
OMG. This video was so heartwarming to me. It was very nostalgic. (especially because of the many lags xd) When I was a kid I loved playing with The Sims 3.🥺❤️
I really hope for TS5, they bring back some of the features from TS3 in combination with the ease of TS4. Like just the color wheel and custom placing corners would make me so happy.
Wishing all the best to you and Snap!
hi simsie 🥰 thank you for your content. been here since around 2-300k and you've never failed to make entertaining content!
KAYLA PLEASE MAKE A HOTDOG MANSION FOR HUMPHREY!!
bff his name is stanley
@@keira_ndwell his name is stanley, but his last name is humphrey sooooo
@@keira_nd are you slow babe thats his last name its normal to call him that way?? 💀
@@rinku_yaydon’t call people slow
@@mitsuri_supremacy2342 and whys that?
It’s not just the colour wheel. It’s the gameplay being epic! But it doesn’t crash much at all for me so it’s not a high cost for me.
with roofing recently I managed to fix a really awkward roof situation by making two half roofs together and make a lop sided roof. Made me feel like a god gamer xD
love the idea
SIMSIE YOURE AN ICON
Love to see this recreated in the sims 4
Oh, that lot was always my go to lot to build 😍
oh those butterflies took me BACK!!!
I just saw you on the morning show here in Australia!
I like the window placement sound!😂
The build looks beautiful. Watched the video while playing sims 4 and when your game crashed mine did too😂...
This is the best April Fool's joke! I love and still play Sims 3. It is laggy and prone to crashing but I think it is worth it. Thank you so much for the video. I'm wishing kitty the best of luck!
It would be so fun to see a recreation of this in the sims 4!
Omg.. now I want to play sims 3 🥰🥰
I just love sims 3 how you can customize all the individual furniture colors
Simsie you are so pretty! I always think this and i just wanna get that out there lol
ugh i missed the sims 3 worlds and the little control panel its just so satisfying
Sending love and good vibes to Snap
she has a whole color wheel and still makes a blue suburban😔
What a realistic clear graphics in Sims 3 compared to Sims 4!
Sending prayers for Snap.
This is my kind of April Fools video, not very pranky, but the chance to do something a bit different from the usual.
Can you do an only kits and base game build ♥️♥️
i love it hahahaha i hope the snap improves
