[jakamoe1]

Hey! What was the cheat you used to get the kitchen counters like that?

[TheMjFan]

boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true cheat doesnt work for me. It doesn't rotates 45 grades. SuperWeird

[jakamoe1]

@TheMjFan Hey! I hate seeing a struggler so I'm gonna tell you how to do it(: After you enter the cheat you have to use the . and , keys to rotate it! If you didn't see what keys thoughs were they are the period and comma keys! Okay, hope this helps byee

YOU SHOULD BE AN ARCHITECT YOU BUILD A VERY BEAUTIFUL HOUSE LIKE A MANSION ALWAYS WHEN I TRY TO MAKE A HOME I TRY TO EVEN MAKE A PIECE OF FLOOR I DONT KNOW WERE IS THE PART OF BUILDING OF THE FLOORS SO I FORGET IT I WILL NEVER MAKE A HOUSE LIKE VERY GOOD JOB I LOVE IT

[CNFxC]

Great house. You did a great job, but it's very hard to figure out the things and tricks that you have done there because of the very sped-up video. :)

[tdewd]

@CNFxC lol yes that is true... unfortunately I had to speed it up to make it a reasonable length of time. I'm too slow at building when in real-time :)

[NBFGrimReaper]

@tdewd speeking of speeding up the video, what program do u use?

[BunBun928]

O.o ALL MY HOUSES TURN OUT BE WAY TOO BIG OR DEFORMED! YOU'RE AWESOME!

[tdewd]

@BunBun928 lol thanks :)

[dizajner4e]

Excellent work! This house is wonderful, I love ... but can you give me the name of the tune? Please... :)

[tdewd]

@dizajner4e The first is I think called "Time Lapse" by "Michael Nyman" (?) and the second is called Toccata

[FreakGta4]

AWZOME

[tdewd]

@JeromeIsTheMan hahaha, no way! I wouldn't know where to start. XD

[xXPrettyDemonXx]

Whart do you mean Period and coma button to rotate it cant rotate the tv i want to :/

[tdewd]

@xXPrettyDemonXx instead of using your mouse to rotate objects, you have to grab the object then press the comma key ( , ) or the period/full stop key ( . ) and it will rotate the object at a 45 degree angle if you've entered in the cheat. You might have to have certain expansion packs installed to use this cheat but I can't remember.

[bloomgirl2233]

My Mum Can make bettter

[giolog123]

[Sylvester0423]

What cheat did you use at 4:29?

[tdewd]

@Sylvester0423 There's a couple - they're listed in the vid. description :)

[xXclemouneXx]

How did you make the roof less steep at some places? And to move objects wherever you want?

[tdewd]

@xXclemouneXx the object cheat is in the video description, and I can't remember the roof cheat, it was a long time ago. I think it was "roofslopeangle" or something like that. Try Googling it. ;)

[scottyupiner]

THIS IS WHAT THE SIMS 2 CAN DO!

[xxxzizel4ever98xxx]

WONDERFUL HOUSE!JUST AWESOME!!AND YOU MADE IT AAAAALL ALONE??do I have to have aaaaall these packs that they are required to download it??

[pumpernicklebread25]

My god , nice house

[tdewd]

[tdewd]

@smileyandpeace Haha, I tend to just build houses. But yes they do when I play. :)

[Leoknot]

hey what the cheat u used in 3:23?

thnx!

[tdewd]

@Leoknot something like "roofslopeangle". You'll have to search online "roofslopeangle sims 2 cheat" or something like that because I've forgotten exactly what it was. Lol.

[fishscale445]

omg i luv it 

[tdewd]

@fishscale445 thanks

[TheBuntyFish]

y'know if I download this, do I HAVE to have all the expansions/stuff packs for it to work or will it just replace the expansion objects with random ones? I only have Nightlife, University, Seasons and Freetime installed. Lovely house btw! :)

[tdewd]

@TheBuntyFish To be honest I'm not too sure. With TS3 it replaces the objects but I can't remember with TS2. Sorry :(

[TheBuntyFish]

@tdewd Ahh well :) Thanks anyway, I'll have a play later.

[98dixiechick]

[tdewd]

@98dixiechick xD

[ambierebma]

[tdewd]

@ambierebma lol thanks

[brownhairhot2]

@tdewd now im really pissed off cause now my dads like just whatever with the computer and now we REALLY probably not get till next week!!!!! WTF??!!!! Im soooooooo pissed!!!!!!!!! MY LIFE SUCKS!!!!

[brownhairhot2]

WHEN WE GET OUR NEW COMPUTER NEXT WEEK IM GETTING THE SIMS 3!!!!! IM SO EXITED, BECAUSE YOU BUILD MULIT-STORY HOUSES ON THE COMPUTER IVE ALWAYS PLAYED IT ON THE CONSOLE(which btw suks) IM SO EXITED CAUSE ITS SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER ON THE COMPUTER YOU CAN ACUALLY "MAKE KIDS"!!! Btw have they worked all the glitches out yet??

[tdewd]

@brownhairhot2 Hahahahaha, no! But *mostly* the glitches are not so bad. I agree though, The sims is much better on PC.

[saoyenn]

@tdewd yeah... i use to play the sims 2 on the laptop but it would always crash... now that i have my own computer which is a destop/pc its so much better.... i have almost all the sims 2 and the sims 3 :D

[ca13814]

@tdewd Got our new computer about a month ago and THE SIMS 3 IS SOOOOOOO AWESOME I UNDERESTIMATED IT!!!!!! SLAP ME!!!!!!!

[brownhairhot2]

What are the names of the songs!!!??? PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!!!

[hellokitty2656]

How long have you been playing sims? and do you have sims 3. i do and i absolutly hate it. it gives you too many option and all i wanna do is make ppl and houses. i never really wanna play.. but anyways.. your really good how long does this usually take you?

[tdewd]

@hellokitty2656 I've been playing since 2000 when TS1 was released. Lol. I only started getting into building maybe 2 years into TS2. I do have TS3 - I lke it! Building houses is so much better, and it usually takes me (if I do things properly) a long time. Like, weeks sometimes. I will build a bit, then go away, then build some more a few days later. Haha, this house though probably took an hour.

[donalduck4ever]

god... are you crazy?? is it a HOUSE, or just a poor VILLA? Just joking, it is a really good mansion :)

[tdewd]

@donalduck4ever Lol thanks :)

[donalduck4ever]

@tdewd no problem :)

[darkjj1995]

i reallly want you to do a normal time one i dunno upload it in 6 parts if you have to xD or do voice over tut on how do do things like how you somehow delete half of foundation squares and stuff this kinda thing would be a massive hit on youtube as i have found jack all of this kind, just sped up versions of housebuildings which i wouldnt call helpful at all xD thanks hope you take my advice, please do it ><

[PurplePineapples123]

4:34 what cheat did you use to do that?

[keegansophie]

hey ive been trying really hard to try and rotate the objects to 45 degree, but when i enter the cheat. it doesnt work, is there a specific way to type it in, or to do something before i type it ? hmp :):)

[babyblueartest]

@keegansophie , you have to use capitals exactly as it is shown or it won't work.

also, see if typing in and entering 'boolprop testingcheatsenable true'(without commas) before entering in the cheat helps.

[tdewd]

@keegansophie you must type (without the quotation marks) "Boolprop Allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation True" and then you MUST USE the period and comma keys to rotate objects. I think this cheat came with an expansion pack so if it still doesn't work it may be because you don't have it installed?

[cookiedoughsFEPIC]

i like how u always put furniture in it in the end. <3

[tdewd]

@cookiedoughsFEPIC Well it wouldn't be a house if it wasn't furnished... saying that I loathe furnishing. Building's more enjoyable.

[cookiedoughsFEPIC]

@tdewd I know right!!! I just reeeeally like how much more finished it is when it has stuff in it! :D

[dwayne417]

are the items still usable even when you enter the 2 console commands? the ones that allow diaganol placement and not having the grids to pace items?? plz reply

[tdewd]

@dwayne417 Yes, they should be.

[dwayne417]

@tdewd ok thnks

[heathanna]

i like this because there is not much downloaded

[tdewd]

@heathanna You mean custom content? I don't like that much either.

[xoHobos]

i hate how sims dont even care how awesome the house is:( only the paintings and such. haha, oh sims...

[tdewd]

@xoHobos Lol yeah, and they only like things if they're above a certain price threshold, no matter what they look like!

[650david650]

Wow * mouth drops for the whole vid* that is freakig amazing!!! You are pro! :) u should build real houses.

[tdewd]

@650david650 Haha, thanks :)

[BrookyBooScaredU]

I was wondering. Is it fully furnished? And how much would it cost in the Sims 2? :) Its beautiful! It reminds me of a Country Mansion!

[tdewd]

@BrookyBooScaredU It is fully furnished... well, maybe I left a couple bedrooms unfurnished, but it's mostly all there. Sorry I can't remember the price but thanks all the same. :)

[BrookyBooScaredU]

@tdewd Thank you very much i downloaded. :3 I love the outside!! Its beautiful!! (I love that word)

[ChaseWorley001]

how do you get so good quality?

[tdewd]

@ChaseWorley001 You mean the quality of the video? Or of the house?

[ChaseWorley001]

@tdewd quality of the vid

[tdewd]

@ChaseWorley001 Ah, I recorded it with Fraps instead of the in-game video recorder then when I edited it and saved the movie with windows movie maker I saved it as a high-ish quality file. It takes longer to save and more space, but it's worth it.

[ChaseWorley001]

@tdewd whats fraps? where do you get it? lol i can be stupid at times :P

[tdewd]

@ChaseWorley001 it's a piece of recording software that you can use to record footage of computer games. Google it - there should be a website about it. Although you do have to pay for it... I did try searching for a slightly less legal "free" version but all the download files I came across had viruses. Lol.

[MegaMade4u]

Niceee!<3

[tdewd]

@MegaMade4u Thanks :)

[brawlboy3285]

This makes me want to play my Sims 3 game, if I hadn't a) Lost the manual and

b) Erased it for more room for a stupid game!!!!!!!!! :'(

[tdewd]

@brawlboy3285 Lol... d'oh! You should learn you can never beat The Sims! ;)

[TheShortHear]

Thank you but yes, I accidentally made two posts (one post I tried to delete but I guess it did not work) =)

[TheShortHear]

A one question more.How you can change you film smaller or something like that.my video is 18 minutes but how I can do this quicker, like under the 10th minutes??=(

[tdewd]

@TheShortHear If you use Windows Movie Maker, just add the effect "double speed" to each clip so it plays faster. I think I had to add it 3 times so it wasn't too long a movie.

[probowhunter]

@TheShortHear u have to upload it to whatever movie editing software that you have and then you just speed it up- for windows its windows movie maker for mac its imovie. :)

[minisharky101]

Did you use any expansion packs in this or was it just sims 2

[tdewd]

@minisharky101 I think I had Uni, Nightlife and Open for Business when I built this house.

[Lufttygger306]

Nice house... I miss The Sims 2.. It wakes this nostalgic feeling in me...

[tdewd]

@Lufttygger306 Yeah, me also :)

[Treldman]

I would love to take sim building lessons from you cause I suck compared to you!

[tdewd]

[tdewd]

larger grid spaces? I have no idea... is it even possible?

[963katy]

[tdewd]

Lol thanks :)

[danielschuhmacher13]

WoW

[left4deadlover123]

the diagonal cheat isnt working!!

[tdewd]

You might need a certain expansion pack for it to work. Go on snootysims (.com) they have a list of all cheats and which exp pack they came with.

[98dixiechick]

umm... the cheat works for me and i just have sims 2.

[tdewd]

Hmm. In that case I don't know why it's not working for others...

[KrazyWarriorKat]

wow, it is a great house! I want to download it! :)

[tdewd]

lol - please do :)

[pandaNL]

I just LOVE you're houses they are awsome!!

[tdewd]

Thanks :)

[TheSarahkins]

luv the house! i tried the diagonal cheat on my game and it goes through but wen i press the period or comma button it wont go diagonally. help?

[tdewd]

Hmm. I think you might need the "University" Expansion Pack. I believe that's when Maxis introduced the cheat... or it might be in all the expansions after that as well. Definitely in University though.

[KrazyWarriorKat]

Wait -- but I have all the expansion packs, and the diagonal cheat still doesn't work. Ummm...can you help me here?

[ILoveStemi]

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! i love you now. lolz
