it’s okay!!! THANK YOU🫶🏽🫶🏽
TYSMMMM I had noo idea you could tool sims LMFAOO. Cant wait for your apartment overrides omgg cause that apartment was looking goodtt
Lmao yessss. I always “teleport” sims with tool. Unfortunately the apartment overrides will only replace the wallpaper/floors BUT you actually just gave me the idea to make a custom save file just for the apartments to try to give you furniture🤭 I’ll have to mess around and see what works best
@@LargeTayterTots ILY TAY TYYYYY
Very Very informative!!! I love how you change your voice with the chairs!!! 😂😂 girl that toenail polish… I’m done! 😂😂😂
TYFS! 🙌🏾💜💜
Lmao omg I’ve exposed my baby voice. That wasn’t supposed to surface🤭😭
@@LargeTayterTots 😂😂😂😂
Eu sou do Brasil e adoro seus vídeos, comecei a usar seus mods e as dicas são incríveis!
Thanks ☺
Girl, thank you for this video!! I’ve downloaded the tool mod and always delete it lol.
The live edit toggle is like debug but it’s mostly for like objects you find in the world that aren’t normally available in bb
Lmao I realized afterwards!!! I have a little note on my desk with the debug cheats because I used to always forget them. After editting, I looked at that note and was like: “and I look at him🧍🏽♀️….
🗒️ 👀 and he looks at me….”
thank you.
Hii love you builds ❤❤ have a question tho when I tried downloading Genevieve apartment I did but when putting it in sims 4 nothing load on the build
Me watching this whole video knowing my brain shutdown and only heard blah blah blah 3 minutes in! Lol. Always wanted to learn to use t.o.o.l. But scared I will break something.
Real 😂😂
is no one gonna talk about her home screen?! that looks soo good. HOW DID SHE DO THAT?!
Simmatically on Patreon has a lot of Home Screen/Loading Screen overrides! I made my own that won’t be up for release🤍
😝 just in time while I’m on my break!
How did you change the apartment walls outside of the lot because I don’t know how to.
is it possible to change the outside wallpapers too? Idk how to 😅
loved this tutorial, I got so frustrated with this mod the first time I used it so this helps!
qq: How are you able to change the wallpaper/floors in the halls of your apartments?
Good morning bestieeee
Good morning!!!🤍
my tool extension will not show up when I try to open it
definitely needed this tutorial thank you Tay ❤ do you need these mods to change the lighting in your game with the color wheel? for some reason when i shift click the lights nothing pops up.
Yes! In build mode, you can shift click lights and you get the option to use a color wheel to change the light color. In live mode, you can just click the light regularly and change the light color with the color wheel.

super informative!! may I know where you get the barstool?
Thank you! It’s from Tuds IND CC collection! I believe the barstools are in part 2
Thanks you so much! Just asking when I go into build mode it always freezes and then I have windows 7 I know it sucks it's the only thing I can play on!.🙄 and then go back on and I can't even build anything??? And also when I go into Cas I press no to like the story thing and then like it loads and stuff and then the Trait section it won't like let me press on the traits?? Do you know what to do?? x 🐇 happy Easter!
Hi!! Unfortunately I’m not sure of a fix for the freezing. It sounds like the game is dragging your operation system through the trenches😭
There might be a mod that causing the CAS issues. Make sure all of your UI mods are updated!
@@LargeTayterTots thank you! Do you have video or loves someone video how to update your UI mods sorry! I am a beginner!😀
no version of this mod works for me in the game. help
hey girly, do you know how to change the walls and floors to the apartments?
Hii! You will have to find the name of the wallpaper/floor and the swatch and then override the files in sims4studio
Hi tay,i want to asking you how i can change my home screen (I mean the screen that appears as soon as you turn on the game)and change it for the stylized version that you use.
Thank you❤
Hii! I overrided SimMattically's refreshed loading screen menu. SimMattically has a lot to choose from on his patreon🤍
@@LargeTayterTots OMG,thank you so much tay,and thank you for answer me
it is really tutorial for dummies and i love it! Grat you focused only on basics, that's what i needed! Can you or anyone tell me do you guys have this problem with scaling functional objects? For example fridges are just a little too small and i would like to scale it up just a bit but then i can't use this fridge. Can't move dish there, can't click on it to choose "take leftovers" etc. Is it just me or it is common problem with functional objects?
Scaling objects that are functional can cause issues! I've found it's best to leave appliances, doors, and computers as is. Scaling decor, seating, and clutter should be fine!
❤❤❤❤
TOOL mod is so helpful and I loved the way u explained it girliee! only one annoying thing i cant figure out if theres a way to change the apartments lobby walls & floors using the tool mod or is it not possible? cuz they be looking quite ugly >:(
It’s not possible to do with the tool mod😭 Ugh it’s a headache isn’t it?!
@@LargeTayterTots It truly iss😂♡
Was wondering if anyone new...Using the tool mod to scale down for example a table, do items still float on it? Like when you use the in game option. Some of the items are ridiculously large but if you scale them down you cant place items on them as that part wasnt scaled down with it. Just wondering if the tool mod would rectify this issue.
Yes, I believe it would float. You would have to move the objects on the table manually or elevate them with the tool mod.
@@LargeTayterTots Thanks for speedy reply. Shame as I was looking for a mod that would rescale but still be able to place the objects without the floating issue. One of those many issues I find sooooo frustrating lol.
hi i have a problem with my tool mod. when i click on shift + t it wont pop up, i have better build buy downloaded and testingcheats true on.
but it wont still work!
When you shift click on an object in live mode, do you see the tool menu?
@@LargeTayterTots that i see but not in build mode
everytime i try to move my objects they just disappear 😅 like they vanish as soon as i try to move it, while i’m still in build/buy mode. i have to undo the action to get it to come back (in its original position). i’m not sure where they are going or if there’s a way to fix it. both my better build buy and tool mod are updated to the newest versions so i’m not really sure what to do about it lol
Are you trying to move an object that is slotted on a table, desk, shelf, etc. when you try to move objects that are directly on top of something, it glitches out. Try using an omsp post instead!
@@LargeTayterTots i think i was trying to move things that were slotted on top of things so i will try this! thank you so much!
Hey Tay! You did so well with this video! However, I did have a question. So everytime I place cars and other objects they end up deleting. Even when I delete certain objects they end up resetting itsself by being placed again. Do you know what this issue is?
I've noticed this happening recently after the For Rent update. Does this happen to all of your lots? I've only seen it happen to the area that is around rental multi units. I'm not sure of a fix of it yet😭
Omg I have this problem too! and theres nobody talking about it so I thought I was the problem 😭
@@Linnie2x does it happen to all of your lots or only rentals?
@@LargeTayterTots I’m gonna assume all since the lot that it’s happening in is a residential and a brand new save 🥲
@@Linnie2x ugh I hope this is fixed soon. I am so sorry!
hii Tay do you have any save files you recommend?
I haven’t played with any custom save files, but I hear the Windbrook save file is good!
@@LargeTayterTots tysm bestiee 💕
whenever i hit shift+t the menu doesnt pop up but the start up screen says it's installed
Did you install the better build buy menu or just tool?
@@LargeTayterTots they're both installed, I moved both the files to the mods folder but still nothing
whenever I try to move the door it just turns off the grid and doesn't move
Do you have the door selected when you're doing it?
@@LargeTayterTots yes
I saw ur test lives
Hii bestie
HI BESTIE
I being trying to install this mod several times and I don’t understand why is not working, please help. When I click shift T nothing happens
Have you enabled script mods in your game? Do you have the files in any sub folders in your mods folder?
I check everything but still not working 😢
Did you download the better build/buy mod? You can only access TOOL in build/buy with the better build buy mod installed
❤❤❤
Its not working with shift and t🥺🥺
Did you download the better/build buy mod?
@@LargeTayterTots yes
Same
Did you get it to work ?
@@damyahaynes711 no😭
