#ts4 tricks

I know this might seem random, but I love all the record players in the game currently, I just hate that they're so bulky and big instead of a little tabletop record player. I was messing around and I put the record player from the Casanova Cave kit into the table that came from Peacemakers Living Room kit and it looks beautiful. Don't you think? there's no glitching. You just. need to use bb.moveobjects and you're good to go. You don't need to lift anything or raise anything or use the TOOL mod. And it looks like a record player is just chillin right on top of the console table. I don't know.. it was mind blowing to me. I figured I needed to share it.

Sorry for the late answer, I was trying to figure out way to condense the pictures (s/o to iphone apps)! Here’s pretty much a huge list of things I do to fill space and decorate backyards with plants and various other things.

So the most important part of landscaping is plants! 

Color (here you can see i chose a gradient hydrangea line for a simple gray house, and yellow and white follower for a bright blue house)

Size (you can see I’ve framed the sitting area with a mix of large and small palms to give it variation)

Density (I’ve added depth to the wall by adding layers of ivy)

Environment (each world has a specific environment, like Oasis Springs vs. Newcrest, and staying within the plant species that live there is generally a good idea)

Style (adding tall trees to a suburban style home is a simple filler along fence or property lines)

If backyards are really small, potted plants can replace growing plants

Sizing up (making a potted plant larger and raising up the tall shrub is a cute porch plant)

Terra Cotta (I created a small garden corner that would be good for condos, apartments, or townhouses with tiny backyards)

Garden plots (adding flowers to large garden plots gives the illusion of gardening, but without the dying)

Terrain paint is a really good tool for creating sections

Shapes (making shapes for landscape groups is an easy way to siphon off parts of the yard)

Placement (using the smallest size can make stepping stones)

Accents give backyards character and make it playful

Springs (this is really good for big backyards, or “beach” houses)

Playground (making a sandbox with fence and terrain paint and putting the money bars together looks like a more complete playground)

Fountains (fountains in the front are easy plant substitutions)

Driveways (sizing up cars and using concrete helps make the front look less plain)

Straight Trellin from Get Together

Putting 2 together (makes a small pergola)

Putting 4 together (makes a large pergola)

Sizing up (makes a large front accent for a porch or a patio)

Half Walls like fences

Outdoor shower (adding onto a pool house or close to the pool is good for a more expensive house)

Plants (using potted plants, palm trees, or lights are good for paths to the front door or accents in the back yard)

Fencing and borders

Fences (round fences in a large driveway and putting a tree, or fences around the front of the house in fill space)

Bushes (bushes, like fences, take up space, especially in 20 x 15 lots)

Filling up empty space

Hedge maze

Wedding/large garden space

Pool

Pool house and outdoor kitchen

Patio and covered patio with a built in spa

Pergola

Lattice grass and concrete (making patterns with grass and concrete make a backyard look decorated without any objects)

String lights (one of my favorites, these are super easy to make a backyard look full)

Tree line (to break up sections of the yard

Fenced flower garden (along the border fence, adding a smaller fence 1 pr 2 blocks out and filling it with flowers takes up space easily)
