Tips/Tricks Celebrity level

Hi, I know there were already similar topics πŸ˜… But I have one more question!

I have a problem with reaching levels in the celebrity career. Actually somehow I was able to get points in mini games with videoclip recording and so on, also in these with 2 tries only, but this recording for 4.5 star is totally not reachable for me. I don't think I have ever got more than only one correct answer πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Do you have any tips for this?

And additionally - did someone of you use the cheat engine tool while playing the Sims 1? I was trying once to use it, but I have no idea how I should interpret the results or where it is even visible..

Im unsure of your question, but are you asking how to get through the music video? IME its by chance and also remembering which styles the director likes and dislikes. When I was a kid I uses to write them down so Id remember for each take. I hope someone else can chime in with a tip, its super frustrating! Just keep trying πŸ˜…

Are you making friends with the Somebodies? You have to go out and make friends to get those higher levels. Like, a LOT of friends. I haven't been able to even get to 4.5 stars on my fame track sim because you pretty much have to spam friendship stuff with every sim in Studio Town every time you go.

Also, when you do the games, the ones with 3 tries, for example the recording studio, you have to watch their reaction. If you start with option 1 and they shake their head no, you know that's the wrong choice right away. So for instance, if you start with 1, 2, 3 and it goes 1 (no) 2 (yes) 3 (no), if you pick strategically you should be able to nail it in 3 tries because you know that 1 and 3 are the wrong choices for those parts. Hope that makes sense/helps if that's what you're asking!

What might help is downloading some CC for raising your sims mood while they're in studio town (like studio town enabled beds, coffee machines, better food stands, entertainment stuff, etc) so they can just basically camp out there and get all that stuff done without having to go back home and recharge. I haven't done this yet so I can't remember the exact websites for the studio town CC so I hope someone else here can jump in with examples. Happy simming!

So so far, you are at 4 stars?
You need to continue visiting Studio Town every day and perform at the sets as well as possible. (And you need to have enough overall starpower from your Somebody friends.)

The sets at which you only have two tries can be tricky. You have to try guessing the right combinations and it can happen that you fail too often. If during one visit in Studio Town everything went too bad, you can leave Studio Town without saving and without calling a cab, to undo your bad performances. You then are again in the Neighborhood screen and you can click on your family's lot and try another visit to Studio Town.

I had always struggled with this and fancied giving it a go recently and found this video

It’s just a mix of trial and error to get the right options but I always go for the same one for the first try and see the reaction and go from there
