All the lots in Moonwood Mill are now rebuilt!
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Three-story wooden house in a hill surrounded by pine trees. Two-story brick factory with colourful doors and flat roof Small one-story lounge at a forest and near two double-decker bus, one of which was turned into a bar Overgrown two-story brick library with clock tower

I thought the build was done, but the interior got changed significantly in hopes of making it look better. Basically, I toned down the amount of brown and green while increasing the gray and red.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Top view of the upper floor of the library, which is a large open room with view to the one below. It's decorated with bookshelves, desks with computers and chess tables. The flooring of the upper area and stage below were switched to a gray tile one with broken bits, the yellowish wood was changed to black and more rugs were added.

Since I had a lot of empty space at the front of the church, I made a graveyard. No wonder the side entrance is more used.

There's a bar there as well in case you want to host a wedding, but no archway.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Red brick church with clock tower at the front. It's surrounded by tall pine trees. More decorations were added, the roof was modified and some windows are now broken. The actual front of the church isn't the front of the lot, but it difers from the side entrance because it has a tiled path leading to the entrance, passing through a small graveyard with 32 graves. The same changes to the side can be seen at the front, such as the additional vegetation and broken windows.

Wanted a slightly fancier floor, so used the first wood one, switched to quarter tile mode with control F and rotated it with the <\> button.

Just make sure to chose your desired color before switching both floors to the same swatch, to avoid having to redo everything.

I've recently watched someone make a build based on Google Earth "I'm Feeling Lucky" feature, which sends you to a random place around the globe, and was curious to try it out!

It took me to St James's Church on Piccadilly, which seemed the perfect inspo for my library!
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Sideways two-story brick church with four-story tower at the right side, which is where the entrance is located. The main roof is red, while the tower one is blue and has a clock. A similar building, but in The Sims 4. The main roof was lowered and got a few sections turned into glass, which were slightly covered by greenery. Fences with exterior trims were added inside to cover the edges of the roof, mimicking wooden beams.

Thanks! I took a few additional progress shots, but they're so similar it's hard to justify including them in another post.
Same photo as the last one of the post above. More vegetation was added, along with lights and some lounge chairs near the lake. The build was playtested and as such suffered a few minor changes to fix issues. New additions were an antenna on the main building roof and more rundown seats for the pergola with the wedding arch. The simplified version of the build has way less stuff and a slightly different layout.

I was planning to tackle the library first, but the bar and bunker seemed more fun due to how exterior heavy it is. As usual, my plan was to fill the lot with as many unique activities as possible.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Fenced grassy area with a few pine trees and a pathway leading to a small building with a stage, a kitchen and a bathroom. On the left there's two broken bus, one with a bar and the other gym equipment. Hidden amist the trees there's a bunker. On the opposite side there's an area filled with trash and some empty space. More landscaping was added and the random activities were organized. Even more landscaping was added, along with a pond at the previous empty space. The lot got even more trees and also a playground for kids. Near the pond there's a gazebo with a wedding arch.

The arrows that appear when clicking in a wall are always centered, and as such can be used to find the middle of the lot more easily.

To make a flat roof piece, resize the roof in the order shown in the video while holding alt. You can tell it worked if both sides are lower than the "barely there half wall".

I usually don't post bathrooms, but I had to rearrange this one in order for the shower woohoo interaction to work, and also took the opportunity to change some swatches in hopes of reaching a more cohesive color scheme.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Rectangle bathroom with brick walls and broken tiled floor. The sink and tub were facing each other, while the toilet sat in a corner and the shower in an alcove, which has a towel rack next to it. The laundry basket was moved to the toilet previous location, which was moved to the shower alcove, as it sat empty after the shower was reallocated beside the tub. More gold accents were added, while the other colors were toned down.

Yep, and I only realized it while playtesting, oops. Fortunately I was going to use the shorter fridge, so I didn't had to change much to add it.
Industrial kitchen in a bump-out, with the fridge peeking out from its left side. The dining table is nearby, and was composed of mismatched tables and chairs with paint splatters.

It's been a while, huh? For this house, my goal was to make a bigger and pricier version of my starter factory. It was also supposed to be a loft, but it ended more like a indoor courtyard.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Work-in-progress reddish brick factory with orange doors. The place is fenced and slightly overgrown. With the floor plan figured out, more vegetation was added along with a few decorations, such as a telescope. Well lit open space with shabby living room. The wall behind the TV is covered by a purple graffiti, while the other has a bookshelf that reaches the ceilling, which is quite tall.

I made a werewolf family for the "Brasil com S" save file! It seemed fitting considering what I'm building. The second parent was done after the teens, so they were changed slightly to match.

I was also curious and checked how the kids would look grown up.
#thesims4 #showusyoursims
Family photoshoot at a park. Three werewolfs hanging out near a bonfire in the same park as before. The one in the middle doesn't seem to been enjoying it as much as the others. Before and after collage of the second parent and the teen who changed the most. Collage with both children and the toddler grown up in create a sims.

The Townies & Lore Q&A they did in Discord kinda answers it, the goal of the pack wasn't to represent them, so they didn't.

It's possible EA will add a few assets to base game later on, just like they did for Romanian and other cultures, though I wouldn't get your hopes up.
Collage of three messages in Discord from Townies and Lores Question and Answers: 17/09/2025, 17:08 Is New Zealand known for its campsites? I only ask because I was kind of surprised to hear that this was inspired by New Zealand but maybe it's also because the camping features remind me of American camping culture SimDevHollie, 17/09/2025, 17:13 Gibbi Point is inspired by many places! New Zealand, Australia, and national parks in the USA! Rach [Game Designer] [they/them], 17/09/2025, 17:54 A few people are asking about cultures; Gibbi Point is sort of inspired by a few areas but isn't a direct representation, so when it comes to representing cultures it's not a direct parallel. I hope this answer helps a bit

To simplify the build, less important rooms and objects were removed or rearranged, requiring me to redo the roof and the exterior. As a result, it gives a slightly different vibe, but I don't mind.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Three-story house on a rocky hill surrounded by equally tall trees. The third floor and the hill were removed, making the house shorter. On the other side, the trees also got smaller. More pine trees were added to cover to fill the lot. The roofing was redone, and includes a crescent moon shaped lamp which was sized up, and a glass roof section. The bougainvillea returned, the landscaping was finished and the interior as well.

It takes a break to realize the two large objects you can't fit are actually the perfect length, when placed beside each other. For the other large room, I made a pool with the lovely assets from Jungle Adventure! Honestly, that pack carried this build.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Descending the stairs leads to a medium sized room with two doors, one to a bathroom and another to a large room. A few random objects were placed, such as a pool, a collectibles shelf, a treadmil, a piano, a tunnel, a messy pile of stuff and a weight machine. The tunnel and collectibles shelf fit perfectly beside the bathroom. In front of them, a game table was placed, which is near a piano and microphone. The other room has a large pool which fills nearly the entire space. The area closer to the door has two lounge chairs, while the opposite wall got vines and two fountains.

The greenhouse wouldn't look like one without a glass roof, however the non-square shape made glitching inevitable. That is, unless it wasn't fully glass. Even then, it still looked a bit ugly, so I made it symmetrical and added bougainvillea vines.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
One-story cabin with a wonky plus sign shape. The front has a porch with wooden beams that extend to the roof. A ceilling was added over the porch. The build got symmetrical and the roof had some sections changed to glass. Bougainvillea vines started to grow near the front windows, while the porch got lighting and a treadmill. The area around the greenhouse was fully decorated, and includes a bonfire near two tents, an easel, a large stump and a magical looking tree.

Raised the house higher up and used terrain tools to make a small hill. The path was based in the one made by @crackedkyber.bsky.social. My plan is to add a greenhouse to the side yard, along with some tents and a grill.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
Three-story house in a large field surrounded by pine trees. The house was raised up and now sits on a hill. Rocks were added to cover the edges of the hill along with trees and a few bushes. A cabin was added to the side yard, and is in front of a bonfire.

As if three stories weren't enough, I've added a basement! I'm still not sure what I'll do with it, so I'll probably finish the yard first. The house may be big, but there's still a lot of empty space outside.

To make the bedrooms, I looked for inspiration in the household members skills, likes, traits and story. Can you guess which is which?
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
The biggest bedroom has a double bed with yellow pillows that match the rotating moon lamps on its bedside tables. Behind the magical lamps, purple bougainvillea plants grow from the wood walls, and a round mirror completes the moon objects trio. A log sits in front the bed near a chest and a stack of books. Under everything there's a colourful rug that ties the room together. Still on the same floor there's another, smaller, bedroom. The walls are white and a bed with blue sheets was placed in front of some counters, leaving room for drawers on each side. Instead of a log, there's a stacked trunk with artifacts over it. Upstairs, the first bedroom has a single bed with cooking and sports posters on the wood walls and a large wolf themed mural behind a desk. The second one has a darker color scheme and is the smallest one. The walls were once again covered with a poster and a mural, but they are more music themed and most were scratched up. The desk is smaller and a wolf statue can be seen over some trunks, near a punching bag.

Didn't like how unharmonious the first attempt looked, so bulldozed it and tried again.

Since the trees are on the taller side, the build needed a third floor, while the bump-outs goal were to allow accents walls and add more shape to the shell. Ignore the floating room.

I like to break my one pack rule once per world when remaking them, and this nature oriented house just asked for it, as Werewolves has more industrial stuff.

Chose Jungle Adventure cuz they fill a lot of gaps of the other pack and have my favorite wood flooring.
#thesims4 #showusyourbuilds
One-story cabin in a large open area near a bunch of pine trees. The build got three stories, and has a mountain esque shape. It started to get thinner and the colors changed up, mixing light wood tones and a green mossy roof. The shell was rotated and a balcony was added.
