Sims 4 Create A Sim Information, Possible Additons and User Interface screens!

So the lucky SimsCampers got an introduction on The Sims 4 Create A Sim by the wonderful SimGuruJill and have had the chance to meddle with the tool themselves! They've been tweeting and posting pics of the info they've learnt, so SimsTabloid has put the best pieces of info all in one place for you!


Here the crew just have us an update on the game and future possibilities, SimsVIP mention Create A Style still could be added into the game (it's currently pre-alpha) and iPodZeke also mentioned that we could see tattoos but it's more likely we wouldn't in the base game. Ruthless_KK did confirm that we will see children and elders at some point in the future too.


Eden Style went on to give us more information on the current Create A Sim; she revealed that there would be traits again and we would have one big aspiration too. She also told us how the new CAS works with the mouse and drag and told us the detail you could go into!


Curtis Paradis also showed us what the user interface of CAS would look like too! Compared to previous versions, the UI looks much more simple and elegant! What are your opinions of it?


Finally, Michelle Kenobi (director of the Real Sims) gave us info on the emotional gestures you could add in Create A Sim with the help of the new gameplay and UI! Sims can have happy, sad or angry gestures!

Sims 4 : Decoding These Teasers

So as you may or may not know, producers on the Sims 4 team have been unveiling witty teasers that have hinted at many new features for the next base game of the franchise. But what do they mean?

Sims 4 Teaser Multitasking

This teaser above shows how multitasking will be a part of The Sims 4. The producer pair seem to be interacting with each other whilst drinks are being poured! PLUS notice that the female producer holds two cups, could this mean she is bringing a drink to a friend too? Also look at the object in use, it's a bar, could this be a bar that comes with its own bartender, I mean do we have to wait for an expansion for a bar worker every time?!

Sims 4 Teaser Objects

Now this is an example of a Sims 4 object - a new piece of gym equipment, a Sims 4 Punching Bag. Which is a cool new object, a long with the boxing gloves. BUT look at the headband, it shows that maybe now we can add layers to outfits to be more creative. ALSO see how the producer is hugging the object, could this mean there are more interactions between object to sim or even emotions between sim and object? I mean we all feel attached to our phones right?

Sims 4 Teaser Height Slider

So is this simply a hint at height sliders? Of course it hints at different heights for your sims,.but look at the jacket one guru is wearing (more layering hints) and look at how one of the tapes is wrapped around the arm of the producer in the middle. Could this mean sliders for different body parts? ALSO does it mean a return of the stylist profession OR profressions as a whole?

Sims 4 Teaser New Create A Sim

This hint also tells us that sims in The Sims 4 can be sculpted and shaped like clay, which hints at even more complexity with create a sim! Could we also get a clay/pottery object in The Sims 4? Also because it's a very artistic object to use, does it hint at self-employment options much like we got in The Sims 3 Ambitions? The producer seems to be hard at work.

Sims 4 Teaser Magazine Outfits

Another CAS hint, again more features about layering items and the return of the stylist proffesion in The Sims 4. However also look at the magazine, how the outfit chosen is taken out of a magazine AND look at the crumpled up magazine page too. Could this be a new "magazine outfit" style new interface for dressing our sims? Look through magazine of looks and choose what you like on your sims. This also hints at Create an outfit and even an outfit option for the Sims 4 exchange.

Sims 4 Teaser Island


SimGuruGraham's turn now! In his trust Island Paradise themed T-Shirt! Of course the pink flamingo makes a return into the next base game! But look at the tiki style furnishings and the Island themed decor, could this be a hint to a world that comes with the Sims 4? Could it mean more then one world which utilises different features? OR could it mean that the hottest features from all  previous expansions will return, as they use Island Paradise (the most recently released) as an example? Also there was something about the flamingo being evil in the caption, could this mean objects have trait specific features?

Sims 4 Teaser Artists

Hmm..it looks like the sims will have their own opinions depending on their personalities. However is the painting based on the artists personality?

Sims 4 Teaser Party

A new party system, drinks, being to juiced to function, juice-overs and energy drinks! Could we get objects that give us fixes for when our needs are low?
