(FYI - the new stilted foundation is perfect for creating a backyard deck!) You’ll even spot some patterns with nods to famous icons of The Sims. Invite some friends and family over, fire up the grill, and enjoy a backyard get together with this new content. It’s already been five years since The Sims 4 released whew-time flies when you’re simming! In celebration of this milestone, we’ve added a set of end-of-summer content so that your Sims can join in the festivities. I think that just about covers the basics so get in there and try it out, experiment, and create some amazing new builds! For times when a single landing just isn’t enough, you can keep adding additional bends to your stairs-as long as they’re tall enough to have room for another one. A curved arrow at the base of the stairs will allow you to continue to rotate the direction of the stairs beneath the landing. A diagonal arrow above the newly-added landing will let you adjust the height of the landing within the staircase. Once you’ve bent your stairs, you’ll see another two widgets appear. Grab onto that with your cursor and drag, and suddenly your stairs will be bent 90°! Keep dragging, and the stairs will bend 180°. There’s magic in the air, and the candle summoning circles you’ve been sending us via Twitter in an effort to will new types of stairs into existence has worked! Configurable stairs have been added to the game, giving you the ability to create stairs that are L-shaped, U-shaped, and more! Excited to try them out? Simply place any set of stairs down in build mode, and you’ll notice a new widget that appears… it’s a box with two arrows attached to it. And as always, a number of important issues have been addressed to make your experience that much better. There’s also a whole bunch of new clothing and objects, both in recognition of The Sims 4’s 5th anniversary, as well as making even more simmers from around the world feel welcome within the game. Read on and you’ll find details of a long-requested Build feature that’s been added to the game. Welcome simmers and aspiring spellcasters alike! While we wait a few more short days for Realm of Magic to release, you can pass the time with this fun update.
