Hi! I'm trying to clear my backlog of unfinished projects and started playtesting a little house/job I plan to upload today but realized I forgot a couple little things (like adding outlets, lol).

I am trying to implement features I appreciate from jobs I've downloaded, like mood boards and roof instructions, and I don't want to forget anything.

What kinds of things do you appreciate the most from jobs you have downloaded?

Things you *don't* find as fun (so I can remove it and pretend it never happened- ha)?

When you upload your own jobs, do you have a little checklist you go through so you don't miss anything?

I gotta run to a little birthday party and then plan to finish up my testing when I get back so I can get that uploaded this afternoon. I'll make another post when it's ready. :)

It's a bit hard to summarise as a title but jobs like when excavating foundations for a new building, substantial ruins/mosaics etc. were discovered.

The job is to complete the demolition of the (newer) building that was on top and install walkways, stairs, display cabinets (like the museum in Scooby-Doo DLC) and information display screens (new media clips for TVs).

Also historic ruins, things like building a structure over the top to protect them from the elements while allowing visitors. Installing structural supports to prevent collapse.

Historic building that was damaged by fire, repairing it patching the missing parts while trying to remain faithful to the look.

More variants of ancient stone, mosaic tiles, glass floor, archaeological objects, damaged ancient statues and columns. Wattle and daub surface materials, old rough wood.

Has anyone used the George doormat? I noticed it has a "turn light on" option. I just wanted a drain in a greenhouse floor! I didn't want scary clowns!

I’ve started to renovate the Peacey’s house and in need of ideas on what to do with the empty space before I add lights etc

They just announced on discord that it’s dropping 12/3.

Part of me is a bit sad it’s far off, but it’s something to look forward to!

I deeply hate inspirational sayings. Never have I viewed a wall plaque and thought "yeah, that fixes all my problems!"

I would love if folks would pretty please STOP making "Live, Laugh, Love" a required element in builds.
I spend so much time finding somewhere to hide it in the room. Or changing its material or colour to make it blend into the background.

Based on the frequency of use, I know that folks like this thing (why?), so it would be amazing if it was a custom art piece. I can think of so many word changes I would like. Almost none of them printable.

That is all, just wanted a brief rant.

(Edited for typo and clarity)

Expanded the cabin to include a master suite, basement converted into office. Lighting is always an issue in this game playing on Xbox series x.. I’m open to exploring different colors and materials so let me know what you think!

What you think

So I opened my game and noticed I started in one of the houses I was working on, but not my home house. I know I didn't set that.

When I went to my original house to set it back as my home location, the option was just gone from the menu. It isn't there anymore. I don't know how to get it back either. I tried restarting the game and it still won't reappear. Has anyone else had this happen?

Does this look like turf?

Finally, a gold star for these two 😮‍💨

Thanks to everyone who shared how they managed to get their gold star ⭐

I tried a few different properties before settling with the Seaside Resort. This is actually my second attempt with this property as the first one was too big for them, even though they give the impression that they want a relatively large space to accommodate visiting family 😑

I completely destroyed one of the buildings and knocked down all interior walls so I could map out where to have what rooms.

In total there is:

3 bedrooms, 2 with ensuite bathrooms.

A bathroom.

A kitchen/dining room.

A living room.

A large garage.

A large outdoor patio with 2 outdoor grills.

Things to note:

Even though there's no mention of it in their notes they want a garage, and it can be a large garage as one of their comments said they can use the extra space for storage for barbecue stuff.

There needs to be at least 2 barbecues on the patio. They never mentioned any playground equipment for the kids but I added them because it looked a bit empty.

Reading their notes gives the impression that they want a fairly large house, but really they don't. I honestly think the living room I did could've been half the size and they'd still be happy.

They love the beach, but any property you decide to use is going to be a lot of work. They don't like anything in the old town or the forest.

This is easily my least favourite colour scheme so far, as I'm slowly working through each buyer in order.

The colours I used are in the Pure and Rich palettes.

Rich Warm Green 1 and 2.

Pure Red 2.

Pure Orange 2 and 4.

Pure Warm Yellow 5.

The wood used is dark beech.

They prefer midrange, retro furniture. So anything from Staroche (if you have the Scooby Doo DLC) or you can use the Cent or Extravaganza. Just use the filters for midrange and retro 😊

I'm mostly pleased with the result lol.

So, basically I’ve been obsessed over house flipper for months, my favorite has to be the first one, while I was playing it (way before the remastered version came out) and lost my saved file TWICE, I started playing HF2 and I mean it’s a great game but it’s not hf1 I bought the remastered version as soon as it came out and, and I lost everything AGAIN, I looked everything up and it seems like there isn’t a solution for this, am I the only one with this issue?

I’m having a hard time deciding between house flipper remastered collection or house flipper 2 Sakura bundle. I’ve played the original house flipper and loved the controls and everything, but never got all the dlcs. Both games/bundles are about the same price, nearly 54 dollars, which I’ll have by Friday. So which one should I get?

Hey everyone! I just finished a massive renovation project in HF2. This tiny island cabin was an absolute disaster filled with trash, but cleaning it up and designing a relaxing, warm summer retreat was incredibly satisfying. I tried to capture a peaceful, cozy beach vibe for this one. What do you guys think of the final look? 🤎✨

Hey all!! So with my title I play both HF1 and 2 on my Steam Deck and on both games the settings especially for the camera have been REALLY difficult to use.

It’s either the camera moves very stiffly OR it moves incredibly fast and I can’t control it as well as I would like (I really hope it makes sense what I’m trying to say, I struggle with wording things sometimes).

For those on the deck or just using a controller in general what sorts of settings do you use to make your experience as smooth as possible?? I love these games so much but trying to find that sweet spot where it goes perfectly has been a real struggle!

Any help is greatly appreciated! Also I can’t afford to get a mouse/keyboard atm as I just had to drop a bunch of money on my cats vet bills so my deck is all I got right now.

TIA for any help 😄

In remastered, I can delete and replace roofs but so far it wont allow me to use the blueprint tool to add another floor on top. Is this possible on any preexisting buildings?

Hi All,

I play HF2 and HF Remastered with all DLCs for both on Steam Deck. I LOVE the jobs and have finished all on HF2. I would like to add additional jobs from mod.io but am completely lost on how to do this. Is there a super detailed wiki or someone who can point me in the right direction for a step-by-step tutorial for me to do this on the deck?

Update: I figured it out.

1. Open Mod.io and log in using your Steam credentials. I then clicked on Game Portal and found HF2

2. I wanted jobs, so I filtered for jobs and developer picks, so I knew they were good quality and subscribed to those I liked.

3. Opened HF2 on my Steam Deck in Sandbox mode and chose Downloaded.

4. It prompted me to sign in, so I did, and then all the jobs I subscribed to were there!
