This is a short overview of the features and functions of the construction mode in InZOI. It is a menu with a large number of tools for building and editing houses and even cities. Newcomers to the game may not be aware of all its features. And if you have just started to master all the possibilities of this wonderful life simulator – the information we have gathered here may be useful. This is not an instruction on how to use the construction mode. If you want to know how to get to this menu and how to use it – there is a separate step-by-step guide with screenshots on the site. Here we will just look at some interesting features of the build mode. Perhaps it will help you create the perfect dream home!
Flexibility in customizing walls and rooms
This option is one of the most important for real estate construction. After all, what kind of house can be built without walls? That’s right, not the most reliable one. There are 8 wall heights to choose from. But it does impose certain limitations when creating a home. That’s why the developers also added the ability to arbitrarily customize the height within a certain range. There is no need to fumble and are willing to sacrifice uniqueness in favor of quick creation, because there are many ready-made room presets.
The construction mode will be updated in the future and new options for creating walls will be added. But the toolkit that is available at the moment is already enough for creativity and creating beautiful buildings.
Interactive furniture and unique items
Furniture and decorations create the atmosphere inside the house. The developers understood this perfectly well and created a very convenient tool for interior design. In addition to the usual furniture like sofas, armchairs, chairs, tables, kitchen sets, massage chairs nightstands and other elements of soft and hard furniture, there are a large number of more interesting items. Interesting items can include foodtracks, arches, lighting elements and many others.
Such decor elements can be used not only to decorate your home, but also to create entertainment areas.
You can create your own amusement park, hydro park, sports field or any other place for entertainment and pleasant spending time. If such places are not very interesting to you and you want to organize the backyard near the house – it will not be a problem. In the construction mode you can find almost everything you need to create such a recreational area. And if some items or functions will not be enough, you can resort to the use of mods.
Landscaping and working with roofs
The choice of roofs is not as large as we would like it to be. But there is variety and that’s the most important thing. And also all roof options look very attractive.
As for landscaping, there are a variety of bushes, trees and other greenery available in the game to add color to your home.
Among this selection, you can notice:
- Trees
- Shrubs
- flowers
When it comes to herbal plants, there is not as much choice. But let’s hope that in the future the developers will expand it. And does not forget that the game officially supports mods. So that skillful people will be able to make mods that will add a lot of new plants for landscaping the house and surroundings.
Editing stairs and windows
Different types of stairs and windows are also available. Options for customizing these elements of home design in the game are plentiful. There are feet, handrails, you can customize handrails or abandon them altogether.
As for the windows, everything is similar – there are many options and the ability to customize them. There is also a special tool that can turn walls into solid glass panels.
Why not build a skyscraper or penthouse with a beautiful glass roof? Let your imagination run wild and create creative homes with a design unlike any other. Window frames and similar materials can also be customized to your liking.
Unlimited number of floors
A unique feature of building houses in InZOI is unlimited number of floors. Build multi-story skyscrapers or small houses with a few floors. The choice is yours, because there are no restrictions at all.
However, the lack of restrictions when building floors is a bit of a mouthful. In the game there is really no special restriction on the number of floors that can be placed in the house. But there is a nuance – such mechanics requires a lot of computing power. Which means that if you impose a lot of floors one after another, the FPS can sag and the game can slow down. It is especially worth taking this information into account for owners of weak and medium PCs. You can familiarize yourself with InZOI system requirements to know whether the game will slow down in such situations or not. For gamers who play on powerful computers with the latest generation processor and a powerful video card, such a problem is not so terrible.
Okay, if not building many floors is not recommended, but the desire to build a skyscraper overpowers the prohibition – what to do in this case? You can easily get around this by creating empty (fake) floors. And no performance issues should arise.
Bathroom and new mechanics
If you think back to The Sims, not much attention is paid to the possibilities of organizing the bathroom. InZOI this process is much more interesting. There are several kinds of bathtubs, showers, sinks, toilets and even urinals in the game.
In addition, the game has a laundry option. In one of the screenshots, the developers noticed laundry baskets, which may hint at the clothes care system.
Lighting and graphic effects
The lighting system in InZOI is something special that many games don’t have. For example, the reflections on the glossy floor that look incredibly realistic. Or sun rays shining through the windows. This kind of lighting creates a special atmosphere, well, and of course, add more realism.
Here are some features of lighting:
- Sunlight is realistically refracted through windows.
- Glossy floors reflect the surrounding objects.
- Lighting is customizable for different times of day.
- Glow-in-the-dark wallpaper.
And that’s just a simple description of the amazing effects and lighting that InZOI has to offer. In reality, there are many more.
Edit City: Customize streets, billboards and nature
The editor for building houses is impressive in its wide range of features. But, what if we told you that you can edit streets and even entire cities? Yes, the game has such mechanics that you can take advantage of if you want to decorate streets with trees and shrubs, or install a billboard on the street. Moreover, you can embed your own videos in billboards that will be broadcast to all its inhabitants.
Want to change the whole city without worrying about how to make it? No problem either – there are entire city themes available. Literally in a few clicks the whole city is transformed. In this way you can change the design of the city and even the time of year.
The possibilities of World Edit are quite limited. But let’s hope that the developers will soon create the necessary tools that will allow you to edit more elements on the map and even create your own maps. After all, many players are interested in creating a game world from scratch.
Canvas gallery and finished rooms
Let’s finish our review with a brief look at the Canvas platform, where players can share created characters, rooms, houses and anything else they create in the game. You can easily download your favorite mod, character, or individual decor elements, and share your own work with the gaming community.
In addition, the game provides the ability to place items without being tied to the grid. That is, players will be able to place furniture anywhere they want, even overlapping objects. But it is not building to abuse it. Characters will not be able to use objects if they are placed very close to each other – keep this in mind.
That’s where our brief review of the construction mode features in InZOI comes to its logical conclusion. Perhaps we could better consider all the features of this powerful tool in more detail, but then the article would turn out to be very large. Therefore, we will definitely come back to it in the next guides, where we will tell you in detail about other, no less important features of the city editor and construction mode.
