somehow, everything is in chinese, is that supposed to be?
a life makeover is what i need rn 💀
cg on the sponsership!
As far as the cat, you could take it to the vet to see if it has a microchip...
i literally just downloaded Life Makeover App and I’m obsessed 😍😇 my fave type of game. What’s your username?!!!!!!
The “rebel” apartment actually just got really clever with peel-and-stick wallpaper and command strips 😂
the smartest of them all😂
Yesss exactly lol I thought same thing haha
Plot twist: That's where the building owner lives
Omg hi syd
Also black paint is still a neutral color so that's within the rules too 😂
in response to the cat that keeps coming to your porch… if the cat looks well fed, 9 times out of 10 it’s going to every house in the neighbourhood begging for extra food because it’s greedy 😂
The cat could be a neighborhood cat, like that people take care of, feed, neuter/spay, etc. but who doesn’t have an actual owner. When I lived in Baton Rouge, every street in my neighborhood had its own set of cats who were super friendly and who got food, attention and care from a bunch of houses.
Or it can have multiple families that don’t know about each others. Very catty thing to do.
SMART
That’s true same happened to me
Hey Syd, you should do a CAS video for each of the apartment styles you built in this video. That would be very interesting.
omg was just about to comment this - I would love a characterisation of each of these apartments!!
That’s such a good idea!
Oh yes! I was going to comment the same
I was thinking that too! Maybe when the new pack comes out so she can try it out
Yeeeesss!
These different rules for renting are fascinating. I am from Germany, and I am bound by contract to paint the walls in the bathroom every three years, in the kitchen every five years and every other room I have to paint every seven years. I can choose whatever color I want as long as it is a light color (which does not matter) when I am leaving. I can drill wholes in the walls as many as I like. I guess this is because we have mostly stone/brick walls which are easily filled with plaster.
whaaaat that’s so interesting!!
@@sydmac As long as I don't endanger the structural integrity of the building, I can do anything, I guess. And as long as I get the apartment back to it's original form when I move out.
Very interesting. I'm from Germany too, but we don't have those painting rules at all. The only rule we have is to do a fresh coat of paint when we move out. That's it. (My building is a new building though, built 2016. So perhaps that's why it differs?)
So interesting I am planning on moving to Germany
@@sreliata from Germany too.. and we have the same rules like you! I think this is the most common. never heard of the others rules with the kitchen and bath walls
Regarding the cat you’ve been seeing: they sound to me like someone’s outdoor/indoor cat. Given how friendly they are they’re certainly not feral; do they look well fed and clean? If not then they may be a local stray that used to be a pet but was lost or abandoned, but based on your description they’re probably fine
Depending on where you are, you can get some pretty friendly ferals! I'm in an area with way too many ferals, but on the bright side that means the ones that frequent your yard tend to get pretty comfy! Every now and then one will manage to sneak into the house lol. It's actually pretty nice, aside from being indicative of a massive feral animal problem that the city only deals with through euthanasia instead of preventative programs....
The details in the exterior!!! That's always my favorite part of your builds ❤
Thank you so much!!
You can ask a couple neighbours about the cat. But if you don't want to, you can attach a note to it by making a collar with some paper that you have written on. Ask if it has a home cause your concerned and put which house you are in or a way to contact you so you get an answer from the owner when it returns home.
Hey Syd!! I hope we will get some gameplay from you with the new pack!! I think it’ll be hilarious
oh we definitely will!!!
@@sydmac I can't wait to see what you come up with!!!!!
I believe if the roof is tall/wide enough a sim can go inside a roof! So you could have done this as the 9th floor too! Not 100% sure but I believe i used to do that to create extra space for my christmas decor box and stuff
Since you're in the EA creator network, I hope you'll get to build for a pack ! You're so good !
For the cat situation, I don't know if it's different in Canada but in France it's pretty normal to let your cat roam around. My advice is that if the cat seems healthy, clean and fed, it means he probably has owners so just pet it if you want but i recommand not fedding it because you never know if a cat has allergies or not and please don't steal it haha Besides very happy for you new house
i know this was 4 months ago (wow) but in the UK its normal too! My cats roam outside ALL THE TIME because they are outdoor cats ahaha, what i usually do when i see a stray cat is feed it only a little bit.
Amazing as always Syd ☺️. Congratulations on getting into the EA creator network!! You deserve it 🤍
Thank you so much!!
On the cat thing: outside of asking neighbors, you can also check for a mark, like a tattoo on the inside of the ear. Even if it's not known to be someone's, if the fur is clean and smooth and the eyes clear, it should be fine.
Also you can feel around under the skin of the neck for a Tony little bump that is the microchip ( but that can be hard to find )
Something I remember when i was living in an apartment was when i couldn't use the dryer in the apartment because it was own by the landlord. They were living upstairs and using it. So i could wash my clothes but not dry it. 😂
I LOVE how accurate all of this is, also when I was younger my parents rented an apartment and we were allowed to do whatever we wanted we could paint the walls, put stuff on the walls, have candles, everything y'know, but when I moved in to my own apartment the only rule my landlord had was no painting the walls. Also, GOOD LUCK ON YOUR NEW HOUSE :)
Manifesting that you get to build an official lot on a pack in the future, seriously love your vids and builds so much! Its always so fun to watch ❤
Our house came with a cat, too 😅 It belongs to a neighbor down the street and is basically like the cat you described. Super sweet and cuddly, and the whole neighborhood loves him 😊
I always smile when I see a new video from you on my homepage. I was just binge watching older videos yesterday since I missed you! 😂 I would love to see a space station build with a CAS video of sims from all the planets in the solar system. You could even do a reality house dating competition where the earth sim has to find their intergalactic lover ❤
With the new pack it would be cute to have a Friends inspired build too!
Almost every home I've had, there's been a neighborhood cat that goes to everyones house for pets and food. A lot of time I've found they are indoor outdoor cats owned by a neighbor. A lot of times, outdoor or even indoor-outdoor cats will refuse to be fully indoor, so even if he was stray, there's a good chance he'd prefer to be outside visiting everyone - hope this helps!! :))
Syd: I personally wasn’t aloud to have candles Also syd: 12:43 16:01
If the cats fur is in a bad shape, you know immediately that it is "a wild cat".
ooo it seems it’s in great shape!! super cute and fluffy and orange🥹
I am an ULTIMATE CAT LOVER btw😅❤️
I just can’t wait to see more apartment builds from you! Also I love the detail that is put into your builds ❤️
Amazing work and details per usual . This is why I watch build videos so I can get reminded of items and packs I forgot about or didn’t know existed.
Ive never seen your channel before this video and let me say you are so talented at interiors! I personally think that’s where a lot of builders go wrong; even if the house is beautiful on the outside, but your interiors are so well done! You use just the right amount of clutter to make it look lived in but still cartoonish, if that makes sense, and create cohesive spaces and themes without it looking like a furniture pack! Plus this video specifically proves you have lots of range! Very inspiring! ❤
Great job on the exterior i was shocked when i heard you couldn’t mount things to the walls. In the uk in general you can hang stuff as long as you fill the holes before you leave
I just want to say thank you for the content you do. I can’t stop watching your videos, your voice is so calming and you surprise me every time with your creativity and uniqueness.
Just came across your video by chance. I love all the apts and their themes. The arches used as headboards..excellent idea! Great video!
i love your builds! they look so lived-in and full of personality ❤❤ also, super realistic with the floor-plan, the rules and everything!
About the cat situation: First, I would definitely get into contact with a few of your neighbors, ask them if they know anything (and just to meet them) if no one knows anything I'd say start to gain the cats trust enough to the point where you could take it the vet, they can give it a check up to make sure its healthy and doing alright and can likely also scan for a micro-chip to see if it has an owner. If it does have an owner but you dont know how to contact them, I'd tell local shelters you have the cat if anyone comes looking for it, and may put up found cat posters or ads on local social media pages. hope this helps
Absolutely love your videos! Will spend all day watching you coming up with such creative ways to keep the sims interesting!
i was watching your old videos and then i refresh and you posted a new one 🤣💗 this one already looks incredible from the thumbnail 😍
Omg this house is AMAZING! This is also totally my aesthetic. I just imagine an adventurous crafty witch living here. Running around each land and finding all the crystals and charging them with different properties. This space emulates that. Great job! ❤❤❤
I tend to half watch/half listen to your vids like a podcast and I love the Syd Lore drops + Life Updates. Super excited that you're part of the EA Creator Community now, and look forward to your growth in both your channel and your personal life (though leaving old comforts can be hard)😊
I feel you with the house coming in at the time you really needed it because my husband and I just bought our house in July and moved in August and we definitely found it at the right time and it was like a bright light for better things to come in the future. 💖
I've never really had inside the apartment rules besides noise and no painting the wall different colors. It was always if you hang anything you have to repair the spot so like fill sand and paint the spot a hole would have been.
It would be cool to have these little apartments all from a different game pack! Like a western, a journey to batu one, a traveler one! Something like that lol
All these apartments are so cute. I thought the Island Living one was my fave, but you kept making cute rooms still.
omg! seeing life makeover is so surprising! i never expected them to reach out for sponsors and to see one of my favourite sims youtuber talk about it made me very happy! life makeover has got to be one of my favourite mobile games and ive played since release so its really nice to see the game grow!
I love all of your build Syd!! Keep it up girly I hope you have a great holiday season!!
it can be a friendly outdoor neighborhood cat who just loves to perch on different porches. if you're unsure, you can bring it to the vet or local animal shelter for chip scan and if it doesn't have one, well, good old method asking around the neighborhood might do
Man you are amazing! Your builds inspire me so much ❤❤
Love love love all your ideas! And the hacks and tips are helpful in real life, too! It's been a while since I've played the Sims but I get by and enjoy just by watching you. 🥰 Btw, I hope you got to the bottom of your cat mystery. I'll have more time to watch now so I can follow any updates for your vids, the sims, and the cat. 😁
I've come back from a break from KZhead and I stumbled upon this video. I watched your videos when you had 50k subscribers, and now you have almost 300k!! It's amazing to see your growth! Now I'll have to catch up with your other vids!😁
Omg this build is so good! It would be really cool if you did a 'lets play' when the new pack comes out. The characterization you come up with for these builds are amazing!
You're so creative!! I love these designs
Just started the video and wanted to say that i actually already have life makeover! And despite it needing a lot of space it is high quality and so far absolutely amazing!! The story line is good too ^^
Oh my god!!! I love Life Makeover, and I am so glad they sponsored you!!!
This is such a good idea and was so satisfying to look at
Absolutely love this build!
cool idea syd !! i might try this thankyou
Why are your apartment builds the only ones that I can digest right now.❤❤❤
i’ve recently got into ur vids n i’m obsessed!! i think it would be cool if you do a video recreating house,rooms ect from childhood shows. some i thought are hannah montana, icarley whatever ur mind comes to !
Her creative decorations skills are amazing 🤩
Love all your vids, keep it up❤
- i think my headcanon for the 3rd floor tenants is that they're best friends who've known each other since they were kids and have a mutual dream of being a music duo. this is their first apartment ever and because they're so close they didn't have a problem with sharing a bedroom until they can save up for a bigger apartment. they're also both a lil goth and one of them streams games on twitch to a growing audience. - 4th floor tenant has been around the block when it comes to apartment hunting, she had to lie about not having the cat because she's been on a pretty tight deadline when it comes to finding a new place. i imagine she's probably a teacher, early to mid 30s and an absolutely doting mother to her cat who's gotten a little chunky over the years. (not alarmingly overweight but he's a lil heavier and she's trying to get him back down to a healthier size.) she's had the cat for a few years and he was originally a stray that lived around the school she works at, her students love him just as much as she does. :) - 2nd floor tenant is a college student getting her degree in game design, she's currently working on an indie game passion project. definitely one of the sweetest tenants in the building, she also knows about the 4th floor tenant's cat but keeps hush-hush about it. she is also trans because that's just how i picture her in my head. (that's all i've got, i'd love to know other people's headcanons for the other tenants tho)
Your so talented syd!
amazing build as alwaysss 😍✨
You should 100% make this apartment and sim cast into another one of your reality tv shows that would be so interesting!! Love all the apartments Syd! Love your videos!!! ❤
it's always crazy hearing about rules in other countries, the last house 2 houses I've lived in were rentals and like the obvious rules are, "don't destroy the house", but if you ask the owner you can basically do anything, we have painted and drilled holes in the walls, and I know of people that have done entire renovations
Love your videos Syd! 🩵🩵
TECHICALLY, I think you can even make it a false 10-floor building if you raise the platforms up to a height that matches the height of your rooms. I'd have to double check, but I feel like you can get it to be similar to at least the small wall height. You can add windows to give it the illusion of being the first lower level of a townhouse with a raised entrace.
I'm from Brazil, I discovered your channel recently and I fell in love. you are very cute and build incredibly well, since then I have watched all your videos ❤
Now we need a video when you play as the person living on the roof!❤️ Btw the build is amazing!😍
The first on and The pastel one are my favorites! 🧡🪞🌌💜
My favourite Sims 4 builder by faaar (and in my opinion the best) 🤩
Syd,this build is fire 🧡🧡. Every time you finish an apartment I say out loud. Oh, this one’s my favorite. I’m halfway through the video and so far I have three favorites… L O L. When the new pack comes out, I’m probably gonna start a new gameplay file and I’m gonna have to use this apartment because it is just too cute! 🧡🧡🍁🍁🍂🍂🧡🧡
Kind of random. I am inspired by how you did your earrings! I love that the hoop isn’t at the bottom! I need to try that with my earrings. Always love your builds though so can’t wait to see how this one turns out!
The island living and the modern luxe blue and black ones were my fave!
Would you be interested in doing another « every item from » video/mini series maybe? I loved it when you did it with all base game items! I even tried it myself with city living it was so much fun! I would love to see what you would with all the items from a random pack ❤ Btw amazing video as always 🥰
Congratulations for hitting 300k subscribers🎉🥰
Hiii i would love to see a building your own new house vid in the sims 4 !! It was be so pretty love your vids 💜
This is stunning ❤
it would be so fun if you did a little series with the new pack being the occupier on the 9th floor trying to survive hiding from the landlords and making money with their little guitar to move to an actual home lol ❤
Hi syd, re the cat, normally a cat that has a home will have a collar and should be also microchipped - which a vet can check for you. Alternatively you could put what is known as a paper collar, its basically a note you attach to the cat, it would hopefully go home and you'd get an answer. If you don't, next step I'd take would be to check for a microchip. I dunno the rules where you are but in the U.K. Over the last few years dogs and cats have to be microchipped as without them its nearly impossible to get your pet back if its lost. From what I've seen online, it seems that inside+outside cats (which we have a lot here in the uk as cats have the right to roam) are rarer in the USA, for various reasons but mostly predators. Im technically allergic to pet hair, however ive taken a daily antihistamine which fixed most of it. I had my cat Jazzy for 16 years, she went over the rainbow bridge 🌈 last November. She was an indoor cat, first by choice when I lived in a house with a garden in a quiet cul de sac but then by necessity as i live in an apartment.
Alll these rooms are so fire
Always a great day when Syd uploads ❤️🤗
I LOOOOVEEE the planty apartment and the dark one as well! We need a CAS challenge where you do townies opposite esthetics or something like that! Like.. Dark Nancy or Hippie Eliza? The rental situation in Poland is kinda chill (I think xD) it really depends on your landlord... Basically, when you're moving in you're paying a caution (usually it's like + one month of rent), when you're moving out the landlord is charging from that money for the damage you caused while living there and giving you back the rest of it (for me it usually was just the cost of the fresh coat of paint). Right now I think I could do anything and my landlord wouldn't care. I haven't seen him in person in almost 2years lol 😂😂😂
Wow this is awesome!
Love every single video!!!!
This is so beautiful
I love how you decorate! ❤ It inspires me to be more creative with clutter 😅 I think I need more stuff packs or something because I love some of these items. With the cat, you can ask your neighbours. I assume it has no tag. Another option is to take to the vet to check for a microchip. If you can’t find the owner, you can buy outdoor cat house and feed the cat giving a place to live outside. 😅
They the apartments!❤ I see there some rebels with always cool. For the cat it could be a neighborhood cat. Does not really have a home but loves pets and being feed.
Loved this video idea. I never lived in an apartment, but my best friend did. Some apartment buildings here don't allow pets, but some do the ones that do. You pay 100 dollars more for the deposit. My grandma lived in an old folk's apartment building, and she could have pictures on the wall. I guess it depends on the landlord.
Adhesive or double sides tape for posters and pictures. You can still decorate without making holes in the walls. That is my living situation right now. 🙄 This was so freaking cute and a lovely video!
YESSS I LOVE YOUR BUILDS!!
Thank you:)
For the cat question, most people will put a collar on their outdoor cats, but if it escaped I'd say look online if anyone posted anything, look if there's posters anywhere, and ask a neighbor.
Your bathroom game in the last couple of videos have been crazy. Love to see it
my current landlord is insane! he refuses to let us mount my wheelchair ramp to the outside of the house even though we could go after him for that, we can’t nail or drill anything to the walls or ceilings, can’t paint any walls, can’t use command hooks, no pets. he never sealed the hardwood floors so cold air comes up from in between the boards and they are extremely prone to scratching just from moving a dining chair. the windows are so old that cold air comes through and the heater and ac is also barely holding on from the 60s. we legit had snow come through my bedroom window last year during a blizzard. there are cracks in the walls, an old exposed brick chimney that has let more animals into our house than we can count, and we can’t have any open flames or fridges with attached water dispensers. We have been living in this house for 3 years because right when we moved in was when COVID hit and the housing market went haywire. it was supposed to be temporary but this place is practically falling apart.
Wooooo I love your builds❤❤❤
syd! my sister adopted a cat (his name is frank) who is the most calm and apathetic cat i have ever seen, he is completely unfazed no matter what, loves people loves the outdoors loves our dogs even! we genuinely thought he had to have been someone's pet that got lost but he's really just that chill! so it's entirely possible that the cat distribution system has chosen you 🥳 no one can escape
you have such an adorable taste!😍 could you maybe make a house tour of your new home?
the bed on the top floor has the absolute cutest sheets, I want them for myself!
The amount of time and dedication Syd! You are moving and yet making this huge, amazing build video for us. I just am so blown away by your talent and effort🫶
So many great ideas!
SO PRETTY UGH I WISH I HAD ALL AND MORE PACKS
I rescue and foster cats regularly through my local shelter. I'll leave you some advice I haven't seen yet in the comments! - Does the cat you've been seeing have a tipped ear? 1cm removed straight across from the tip of the left ear is a sign that the cat has been seen by a vet, TNR'd (trap, neuter, release), and is part of a local cat colony. - If not, taking the cat to a shelter/vet office can 1) get the little baby a health check and 2) they can look for a microchip registered to it's owner. - If you are looking for a resource on how to catch this cat, or any cat stuff in general, I recommend Kitten Lady's KZhead channel! She is a wealth of knowledge and has videos on almost anything you could want to know about caring for kitties. Good luck Syd, I hope you're able to solve this cat mystery and make a new furry friend in the process! 🖤🐾
I love your apartment builds ❤❤
thank you:)
