Thank you!!
Thank you! Currently playing a household with a dad with 19 kids by 4 different women & now I think the kids deserve a Dalmatian
LMAO
Just 1?😅
Im making a poly group but im too lazy to take care of the kids. So im building an orphanage
Oop
LMAOOOOOO
finally someone that warns you about the losing sims ! Thank you so much ♥
You’re welcome
The cruella at the end w dagdag SENT ME
Hahaha nice!!
It was this easy the whole time…😅
Easy peasy!
I never knew this T_T, and it was here the whole time where the whole time meme
I thought it was hard but when I seen this it made me so happy 😭
Ikr
I’m new
I'm playing a supernatural boarding school and needed this so much!
So cool you did 101 Dalmations! That's commitment!
TwistedMexi has a mod called "Full House" that I use. MCCC is TOO massive for me and what I'd like to do but TM's version is simple and perfect for my needs.
nice! i might have to check out that mod. I think MCCC is more widely used for a lot of things, which is why i went this route. maybe I'll check out "full house" and do another video. it can never hurt to have more options. 😎
OMG! It took me almost 3 days to add all those dalmatians. I streamed twice which is probably why it took forever.
You have to choose one or the other. If you add both TwistedMexi Full House, and Mccc in your mods, and visa/versa, it stays on the EA loading screen. The game won't load/glitches with both mods. I used Full House before Mccc, which I prefer Mccc. Full House is just a mod to add more than 8. Mccc, you can use Cas cheats, and moodlet cheats. Etc. I use this to do reality shows lol.
@@MonkeyTornado that’s a great point! You can’t have both. I just needed to add more than 8 sims and nothing else so TM’s worked best for me. Those who want any extra features should definitely use MCCC.
@@MonkeyTornado oh crumbs, i gotta go edit my mod folder then
can you go into create a sim with that mod?
Thank you so much!! I've been trying to have 8kids in 1 household and it's difficult because it wouldn't let me have 2 more kids , You're a life saver!!!
You’re welcome! Just remember you have to go through CAS through MCCC so that you don’t lose sims
i dont know what id do without your help. you are such a great creator. new sub!
awwww glad I was able to help!!!
@@Nardvillain I’m new with playing the sims 4 your videos will definitely help!💗
I'm playing a game with one husband and 3 wives to see how many kids they can have. I put in enough beds in each wive's house on the lot where they'll each have like 9-12. So definitely gonna be almost 40 Sims by the time all the beds are filled. This video was super helpful. Thank you!! 🎉🎉
haha nice! good luck not having the other wives jealous unless you have right traits equipped
The "dag dag" through me off guard 😭 but this was very helpful!
you're welcome!!! glad it helped. going to put together a tips and tricks on how to use MCCC sooner than later.
The smile on my face when I saw so many puppies!!!❤❤❤❤
Thank youuu 💖 now I can live my dreams of having a big family through my sims 😭
Thank you, this really helps with pets taking family sim slots. I don’t like the idea that getting a dog will control how big my families can get or that my big families can’t have dogs, cats, or horses.
right?! i don't like that either. especially now that horses count as a household member.
Thank youuuu!!! I was pretty confused on how to add more sims after I expanded the limit.
you're welcome! glad it was helpful
I ALWAYS MEEDED THIS FOR MY SIMS Apartment
OMG I am so glad I found your video, I thought I was going to have to get rid of their pet now I don't have to, you are a Simmers dream new sub for sure!!
thanks !! glad this was some help!! just remember to go through CAS through MC Command Center tho. when you get more and more people in your household, going into create a sim the normal way might end up to losing sims. so be sure to click on the sim you want to go into cas with and do it through mc command center. happy simming.
I just rewatched this video after a year and now i understand what i missed, thanks
what was it?! omg -- i could have easily helped you. sorry if I missed your question last year. Glad you figured it out tho. what was your issue?
@@Nardvillain well the thing i missed was the gathering sims part, i didn't understand it the first time lol but now i understand it
@@Nardvillain a quick last question (possibly) when i click a computer the MC command center doesn't show up, is there something i am doing wrong? cause the game actually detects the mod however when i click the computer it doesn't wanna show up
The Dalmatians were so cute! Thank you for this video!! I am a beginner with mods and will find the other video.
awesome!! glad it was helpful!! i've added the link to the next video in the description so it's easy to find. let me know if you have any questions!
thank you for both videos! got my sub i normally downloaded mods using vortex so i had no idea on what to do these vids were super helpful
you're welcome!!!
Thank you! I’m doing the 100 baby challenge 🤣
oh funnn!! have fun and good luck!! oh my goodness. those infants are going to be a hand full!!
OMG THE DOGS I CAN'T SO CUTE
You’re awesome for making this, I’m trying to make the Wayne Family in my sims game and I only need 9 sims
super cool!!!
Thanks for this knowledge, I sort of figured it out, once i installed MCCC, Now have some fun, with an amazing graphics and memory chip in my gamer PC. I can do what I wanted to do, There is a limit, but its way far better than the original settings of the game. And it works, THANKS AGAIN. WOOHOO!!! Hey, not what your thinking, there are lots of tweaking stuff, with this MOD. 🤩🤪😎
I just saw this today , and its very helpful for someone who makes a machinima like me, dag dag!
Makes me happy knowing it was helpful!! Thanks for watching!!!
Why’s it not working even tho I have everything enabled and I exited the game multiple times very great video btw everything else worked but I just can’t have more then 8 sims:(
have you tried to shift click on an sim and "add to family" ? make sure you have testingcheats on if you're trying to do it that way. keep in mind, you can add more than 8 sims in Create-a-sim.
@@Nardvillain oh ok thank you!
Thank you for helping. I play the sims 4 very long time but I don't know this. So again thank you 😊
Happy to help!! Glad it was helpful!!
Thank you for this video, helped a lot 💫
you're welcome!
Thank you SO much! this helped alot since the horse ranch realsed bcuz I was having trouble Thinking which to have more sims or horses Now I can add as much as I want this is so Helpful Thanks!
And dogs and cats!!! Now farms and ranches can have all three without limiting the family size.
I didn't know mc commnd center had this feature!
That will make it alot easyer! Thnks
oh yess!!! way easier!!
No way that was so easy thanks ❤
This is why I enjoy watching your videos 😀😀😃
I'm glad! Thanks for watching!
Thank you! I'm currently building an apartment in newcrest, so this is really helpful. I mean what kind of apartment that only have 8 residents...
thankyou so much!! :)
this was real easy, im gonna have soo many sets of twins now 😛
You’re welcome
omg love the cute little puppies
right!? this was a lot of work!!! never again. haha
thank you for this, really helped out.
Glad it helped!
I can’t even handle 1 sim child let alone 7, but heck id love for you to do a 100 toddler challenge! Triple the taking the kid in and out of the chair! 😈😈dag…. dag.. 😈 it at least you can do for cheating on the 10 minute challenge! 😡
yooooo, that would be insane!!! maybe I will try to do a legacy with 100 toddlers and see if I can't get them through school. haha. not a bad idea! you think that'll be enjoyable to watch?
@@Nardvillain anything you do, that will consider torturing your sims and yourself is worth watching! 💀😂
@@Timburgess03.. haha nice!! Well I do need to stream st some point - so that could be a cool idea
@@Nardvillain let me know, and I’ll join if I can.. if not than can you post the whole live after? That’s what lilsimie does.
@@Timburgess03.. yeah! Will try to potomote on IG before. Yeah they’re usually saved on twitch. I could upload them here too
Nooooooo all this time!!! Thank you so much. Subscribed and you’re very helpful
you are welcome! i also have a more in depth tutorial on my page as well.
I have 17 people in my household. How can I upload them all to the gallery? Im scared of losing them as ive spent a lot of time customizing them.
i don't think you can upload them to the gallery since you can technically only add up to 8 per household. BUT, you miht be able to maybe add the household to your library BUT, you might not be able to do that because you will need to get to CAS to add the family to the gallery but you can't go into CAS the normal way but if you can go through edit through MCCC, check to see if the add to gallery/library is available but i highly doubt you can.
what if i transfer the other 8 (plus the other one) to another lot/household in the same game then upload each household to the library just to save then just merge them all back together after. will it work?
@@tsukirunsu that should work because you're technically separating the families and when you want to merge them back, you can add to family by shift clicking on the sim.
@@Nardvillain ok, thanks!
So o tried this and my sims disappeared and I don’t know what to do
This was very helpful. I am going to wait though. I need to save some people in the current game.
glad it was helpful!!
I thought this whole time I could only get 8 sims 😾😤- BUT THANK YOUUU ❤❤❤
Omg I love your TikTok !!!🤣 “dang, dang”
awwww1 thanks, supervillain! dag dag! 👹
Very helpful
awesome! glad it worked out!!!
Love your shirt 😂
thanks, wardrobe! 👹
you are my favorite person ever. thank you
awwww yay!! let me know if you need any more help tho!! this is pretty straight forward but just let me know! :)
When I press on the computer it doesn’t show me mc command center
So I am wondering because I went into the game and it says they are installed but when I go on a computer it doesn't show up. What do I do?
Did you enable the mods and game options?
@@Nardvillain I did. But I figured it out I forgot to unzip the file
Thank you the tutorial really helped I can now have so many sims !! But when I go into cas it deletes some of my sims because I have too many , I was wondering if it is something you can change?
In this video, I explain how to navigate to CAS without losing sims. you will need to use MCCC to go into CAS
@@Nardvillain alright thanks for the advice!
It wont work, is it also for base game? I refreshed the game like 10 times and my other mids still work but this one just wont. Any tips?
If you have a household with 8 sims and a household with 2 sims next to it and the one with 2 is a father and child sim and you move the father into the house with 8 will the child sim also move in and follow her daddy ? Or do I have to manually move the child sim as well ?
I actually don’t know how that would work but to be safe, I’d add the child first.
i have a problem, i alrd set the household to 15, then i restart the game after it. but it still doesn't let me to add new household member to more than 8
you can't add them via CAS. you have to add them by shift clicking on a sim and adding to family or having babies.
@@Nardvillain ah i see! tysm for the answer!
How do you get the sims icons to stack @3:01? I need this because the smaller icons are hard for me. Unless there's no customizing like 8 sims then start a row on top?
I think you can go to the settings in game option and resize the ui to your liking
I have a problem I can use the MCCC and increase the household size but when I save the game and I load it again the game randomly deleted one of my sims and the number of my sims will be 8 again
What is the problem ?! I think I should do something with the setting
Thank you!!
You’re welcome!!
I did download the MCCC, but it keeps telling me that my mods or something is out dated and my sims keep disappear from the household for no reason. Even though I have remove all the mods.
Make sure the mods you have are the most current. If you’re not downloads then from curseforge. Make sure you’re downloading the mods from the modders website.
@@Nardvillain I did remove all the mods, but the sims still disappear 😭
@@Nardvillain and also, I already expanded the number of household members from 8 to 30. They gave birth, but when I chose to change sim, the members disappeared againnnnnn
@@lamyen1233 don’t go into those households with more than 8 and also don’t go into CAs and you should be fine.
@@lamyen1233 also - as long as you don’t save - you won’t lose the progress you had prior to taking you mods out. You might need to download the updated version of mccc.
the one random pink dog 😂
Hahhaa my version of the “oddball”
I downloaded both mods but it doesn’t show up on the computer ?
I wonder if the mccc mod update changed around the settings. If you click on the computer and open up mccc, it should be exactly where I mentioned in the video. I have the most recent updated mod. I’ll go double check
I’ve tried so many different things, it doesn’t show up in game at all I do not have the option for it on the in game computer
@@emiliabevo it works for me and i have the. most updated MC Command Center. Make sure you have the most updated MC Command Center from the actual website or from Curseforge.
again the way to do it is:
click on a computer go to:
MCCC/Commands/Gameplay Settings/Household Size. Change the number and restart your game. You do have MCCC in your game tho? if not, you'll have to make sure the mod is in your mods folder. when you download it, make sure it's extracted first and then copied into your mods folder. go into your game settings to make sure you have mods and script mods enabled.
Life saver! Thanks!
thank you!!
you're welcome!
Thank you u really helped😊
so glad it did!! dag dag 😎
Great video! Also why are your sims so funky looking lmao?
Hahaha. This just be your first time meeting Cleon the grilled cheese guy and Beverly the butcher.
Thank you for the tutorial, I changed the size of the household to 20 but it doesn't let me create any new sim, is it because I need to do something else? cause every time I check the household size has been saved to 20, so I dont know what to do.
you want me able to create a new sim within the household. you can only add sims to the household or have your sims make babies. You can create new households and then add them to the family through MCCC if you want to do that.
I am going to use this to make a fallout vault thanks.
ooOoOoo
You can also always have cas fulleditmode eith mccc
Pro tip!, look at all them doggies
If you can't get into create a Sim like usual, how can I create a new sim for the household?
Question- I would still like to breed my horses but it still says there’s already to many in the household even though it says it’s maxed to 104 now, anyways to fix this?
did you restart your game yet?? you should be able to breed animals. if not, you will need to have a set up where you can breed outside of that household and then add them into the household using MCCC. but you should be able to breed. not sure why it isnt working.
How do i move out sims from the household? Every time I try to do it won’t click the check mark because one of the houses holds is over 8 sims
I think moving a sim out of household is found in the phone feature. if it's not showing up, you might have to go to that specific house hold and then add that sim to family if you're just transferring a sim to another family.
@@Nardvillain I tried but each time I have to click the check mark either from the phone or in manage worlds it won’t confirm because the household the sim is coming from is over 8 sims still
@@season_storm2480 i will need to navigate through MC but you might have to do the move out sim through MC command center. click o nthe sim you want to move out and then click on the mc command center, it should be within the maintain sim feature where you can move, delete, make happy, etc. you might have to do it that way.
@@Nardvillain Oh that worked! Thank you so much for your help
2:02 it's not showing any of my existing characters, just random ones
what do you. mean random ones? you can start adding more than 8 to a house by shift clicking and adding to the family or producing more babies. if you have autonomy on and sims can freely do whatever they want in your inactive played households, sims might generate in those families. if you don't want that, you might want to change that in game options.
It didn't work. I went to someone's house to join my hh I already had a hh of 5 so what I do wrong. I also restarted
We just got Some
Base game updates. So make sure your mccc is up To date. From there, if close out of the game and go back into that save file you made the household size change.

Be aware that you have ti enter cas through MCCC in any household with more than 8.
I'm keeping 50 kids in a cage I'm sims 4 now thank you
Hahaha you’re welcome. Happy simming
why tf is it impossible to add more household members from the damn library!?!?
if you're adding to the gallery, what I would do is add them to a different household and them add them to the family or summom them to the prroperty.
Nice. I’m making the x men and I need this
supe rcool!! let me know if you have any issues! xmen is a great idea!
@@Nardvillain it’s worked perfectly 👌🏽 all I’m tryna do now is find some kinda mod which allows the mansion to function as a school
it won’t work when i installed it the file was zipped but i couldn’t unzip it
are you on windows or mac? if you are on mac, it'll automatically unzip it for you. if you're on windows, you might need to install a .zip software. it's free.
@@Nardvillainnevermind i just did not have my mods allowed 🤣 thanks for trying to help me
Need help please!!! I already did all those steps. But its still not working. The mc command is not showing up on the computer 😭😭😭
are you clicking on a computer in the active household? if you have enabled the mod, you should be able to access mc command by clicking on a computer, a mailbox and a sim. Does it show up anywhere?
@@Nardvillain yes i am clicking in an active household. It's really not showing up even in the sim, computer, or mailbox. It's really not working
@@Nardvillain does the sims 4 have to be up to date for the mod to work?
@@littemissbratinelayes u need to update the game of course
Do you know how to do it on xbox?
The mcc comand center updated which one to choose?
If you go to the website, choose that one. It’ll have the most up today’s mccc mod.
Thanks!
Anyone knows how this works with rotating between different households?
this applies to the save file. so once you activate this within the save file. this applies to all households in that save file.
@@Nardvillain perfect! Thanks for replying! 😊
THANK YOUU
you're welcome! glad this was helpful!!!
*Cries in console player*
hang in there, friend!!
I figured it out, tou cant let this mod stad in a Cage. You have to make sure that every document is like a single document as soon an you click on mods. If you understand what im saying. Im dutch so my English isent perfect 😂😄
It dosent work for me because the sims for some reason don’t go to the computer to actually change the number when I tell them to
I used this version of the download because the newest won't work properly, and I made one sim have 4 babies, and she disappeared. How can I prevent this? Anyone else have something similar?
how many sims do you have in the household? do you remember if you ended up going into create a sim?
@@Nardvillain Oh crap I did, I had 9 sims
@@synsvids it might get annoying after a while going through cas through MC Command Center but that's the only way I know. sometimes you can move them into another lot if you really want to do some cas.fulleditmode editing.
I followed the steps and it shows up when I loaded the game but not when I go to a computer? Can someone help
but you do have it activated in game options? if you click on a computer, you have to sometimes go to "more options" to find MC Command Center.
Hello, I'm being honest when i say I'm following this properly, but for some reason, i get the message saying my sims have moved into the household but when i get to the household they're not there and have just disappeared 😭
I had this thing the whole time😭
Hi! I tried increasing the household size to 14, but everytime after I save and open the game the extra sims disappear :( how to resolve this?
you can't go into create-a-sim the normal way. so if you want to adjust a few things with a specific sim, you'll need to click on that sim, go into mc command center and then CAS. only way you can work on sims without losing them.
after i add more sims i went to cas to edit one and when i got back their disapear
You won't be able to go through CAS the normal way, you'll have to go through cas through that sims by using MCCC. I mentioned this step in the video.
Thank ya
Any time!
Thanks a lot, but I have a question, when we exit the game and re-enter, the sims do not disappear, right?✨
they shouldn't. as long as you do enter into Create a sim and you have more than 8 in that household, you should be fine.
@@Nardvillain Thanks a lot! ✨✨
every time I go into car it delete one of my sims. Do anyone know how I can fix it?
you can't go into cas anymore. if you want to edit a sim, you'll need to go into mccc and do edit CAS . it should only bring up that sim in CAS. if you go into cas the regular way, you'll lose sims.
i do believe I mention that in the video as well as show you. let me double check and provide a time stamp.
2:10
Do you lose your sims if the mod stops working because of an update?
Yes and no. If you need to disable for any reason, I’d recommend not using that save file.
And then I ask myself why my sims' keep getting dissapear from the world.. so the problem was not to go to modify cas
omg thank you so so sooooooooooooo much
you're welcome!! :)
I have a sorta stupid question lol. If my household hasn't gone over the 8 sims max, can I still use CAS to edit or do I still need to go through MCCC? Mostly because I wanted to save my current household to my gallery but I don't want to risk anything happening
(I mostly use MCCC to modify household relationships after a sim has been created)
Yes. You can use CAS to edit normally. Only time you need to go into CAs through MCCC is when you have 9 or more.
Thanks so much for the video and your answer!!
Mine says that i have to restart the game or something to get the amount?
yeah, that's the protocol. all you do is just exit out of the game and reopen the game. once you do that, it's good to go.
Wait so you cant create more than 8 sims in CAS but the only way you can have more than 8 sims in a household is if you command a sim from another household to move in? Or am i missing something?
You can add more than 8 to a family but no, you can’t add more than 8 sims in CAS
I for some reason still cannot add adults or teens. All it says is remove from family and when in mcc my household doesnt appear for the moving
what about if i am having a party and i want to invite more sims?
you can invite as many people as you wan t (up to 15 at a time I think) and it will not have any impact on the number of sims on that lot. This can also be adjustable within MCCC with MC Population for other lots in general. be careful with that. it'll slow your computer down.
ty!@@Nardvillain
anytime JVILLAIN lol
@@jqhnnyy
lmao@@Nardvillain
it didnt work for me. i followed all the steps, but sims 4 says error and it wants me to join discord
make sure MCCC is up to date. i know with the most recent base game update, some mods might need an update. make sure other mods aren't conflicting as well.
@@Nardvillain i changed the household limit to 16. exited out of sims 4 and came back, it did save the limit, but it wont let me have a household over 8
