How to Get Quarter Floor Tiles

In The Sims 4, players can unleash their creativity by designing their Sims and constructing unique homes for them. As a social life simulation game, The Sims 4 provides players with full control to build, furnish, and decorate homes according to their preferences.

Although building houses in The Sims 4 can be immensely enjoyable, players may encounter challenges in the Build mode when attempting to make precise adjustments, such as rotating floor tiles. The ability to reposition floor tiles enables players to design visually appealing floors for their Sims' homes. This article serves as a guide to help players master the art of rotating floor tiles in The Sims 4.

How to Rotate Floor Tiles

To rotate floor tiles in The Sims 4, players can easily do so after purchasing their preferred tiles in build mode. First, select the "Single floor tile" option from the Build menu, typically found on the left side of the screen. Click on this option to access individual floor tiles for rotation. Next, click on the specific tile that requires rotation. A highlighted tile will indicate that it can now be edited.

To rotate the highlighted tile on PC and Mac, use the angled bracket keys, commonly referred to as the comma and period keys.

PS4 users can rotate the floor tile by pressing the Triangle button while using the Single tile tool.

For Xbox users, hold down the Y button after selecting the individual tile to be rotated.

Players can rotate floor tiles vertically and horizontally to get the desired direction and design.

Rotation will not work if the Single floor tile option isn’t enabled.

Flooring comes in different styles – tiles, wood, stone, masonry, and linoleum. Outdoor floor tiles are also a form of flooring, such as pavements on roads and sidewalks.

To easily create tidy corner pieces for kitchen tiles, backyards, or a charming wrap-around porch for Sim's houses, utilize quarter floor tiles. By pressing the "Ctrl + F" keys simultaneously, the floor tile transforms into a pleasing triangle shape, perfect for crafting an aesthetic corner piece. With the ability to effortlessly rotate floor tiles or incorporate diagonal tiles, unleash your creativity and design one-of-a-kind and personalized flooring patterns.

The Sims 4 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S.
