| Problem | Explanation | |--------|-------------| | | Floors 4+ don’t show up in the top-left floor icons. You must use Page Up/Page Down keys. | | No elevators | Elevators only work up to floor 3 without additional modding. | | Stair glitches | Sims may fail to route to high floors; stairs might not connect properly. | | Roof placement | Placing roofs above floor 6 can be buggy. | | Save file corruption risk | If you remove the mod after building on floor 7+, that lot may become unloadable. | | Performance | Very tall buildings increase simulation lag, especially on large lots. |
The game engine has a hard-coded navmesh limit. You can visually force the game to show floors 5-8 using Better BuildBuy and editing the GraphicsRules.sgr , but your sims will never autonomously use them as living space.
A for using the T.O.O.L. mod to elevate objects
With constrainFloorElevation false activated, you can manipulate wall and floor heights. For example, you can create a "tall" wall by adding a frieze (an architectural trim layer) to a room. By using the cheat, you can then merge and stretch walls to create the look of multiple floors stacked on top of each other.
If you are interested, I can provide a list of top builders who make these types of mods, or help you find resources on how to make your own!
In , the hard-coded limit for floors is 4 levels above ground and 4 levels below ground (basements). While there is no single "More Floors" mod that simply adds a button for a 6th or 7th story due to technical engine limitations, players use specialized tools and tricks to bypass these restrictions. 🛠️ The Essential "More Floors" Tool: T.O.O.L.
Make sure you aren't running two different mods that try to alter the maximum floor count.
Introduced in a base game update, platforms allow you to create split-levels. You can stack multiple platforms within a single high-walled room to create up to three distinct visual stories inside what the game considers just "one floor."
Before you can start using the More Floors mod, you'll need to install it. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Are you looking to build a specific type of structure, like a or a tall lighthouse ?
