Want to go even further? Try wrapping the edge of a platform with half walls and then customize the edge with any wall material. Here you’ll find trims that match all of our foundations as well as some new trims with basic materials that look perfect in the interior of a building. The “Walls and Empty Rooms” section of Build Mode now has a “Platform Trims” subcategory. The visual look of platforms can be customized in a variety of ways. For example, you could create a platform with only enough head clearance for a child to enter. Platforms can be utilized as fully functional space or be purely decorative areas - the choice is yours! As you adjust the height of a platform, your Sims will intelligently adapt to that space. If you build a stack of platforms all the way to the ceiling, the very last step will need to be a staircase or ladder to connect two separate floors of a building together.

One notable exception - platforms can’t connect across multiple levels.Here’s your first advanced lesson in platforming: Remember that callout about stacking platforms on top of each other? If each stacked platform is a single step in height, you could certainly make some interesting custom staircases… For anything higher than a single step, connecting a set of stairs or a ladder between the different surfaces will allow Sims to reach them. When a platform’s height is a single step higher or lower than the adjacent floor, Sims are able to step onto it. Make something nobody has ever seen in The Sims before!. You can stack platforms on top of platforms, on top of platforms, on top of platforms, on top of platforms, on top of platforms… Seriously, go nuts. I don’t know why anyone would want to do that * cough* devious players * cough*, but the option’s there! This ability to go deep is reserved for the ground level and basements. Simply click on a room to select it, and the new up & down arrows in the widget that appears will allow you to add or adjust the height of a platform within that space.īecause platforms can have their height adjusted up or down, you can even create platforms that sink down beneath ground… like, really, really deep down. You easily can add or adjust the height of a platform in any room.

You’ll find both of these within the “Walls and Empty Rooms” section of Build Mode. You either can use the new Platform Tool directly in or you can place preset platforms that come in various shapes and sizes. As much as we’d love to sit here and go on and on about how incredible platforms are and how they completely revolutionize Build Mode, you’ll see that for yourself as soon as you try them out in-game! Here are some basics for how they function and how you start building with them. Platforms enable you to build rooms at varying heights within a story level.
